Back in 2012 Peacefrog label head and certified audiophile Pete Hutchison embarked on an ambitious mission to create the “best-sounding records in the world” with The Electric Recording Company. The label has since become a specialist in golden era classical recordings cut from original masters using vintage, valve-driven equipment.

Now ERC. has signed a deal with Concord Music Group, allowing it to apply its exhaustive process of recreation to some of the finest jazz records from the Prestige back-catalogue. The first titles on the slate are records by Hank Mobley, Tommy Flanagan, Elmo Hope and Jackie McLean, all produced by the revered Rudy Van Gelder.
