Frequently Asked Questions

Is the MoFi Bill Evans and Jim Hall - Undercurrent LP a good choice for audiophiles?
Yes. This is a Mobile Fidelity Silver Label numbered edition LP produced with attention to audiophile presentation, which typically means careful mastering, limited pressing runs, and stricter quality control to reduce surface noise and preserve dynamic range. The recording features two acclaimed musicians, Bill Evans (piano) and Jim Hall (guitar), and includes the six original tracks that showcase subtle interplay and wide dynamic contrasts that benefit from high-quality vinyl reproduction. Audiophiles and collectors who value quiet backgrounds, tonal clarity, and authentic analog character will get the most from this pressing. Keep in mind that to fully appreciate the benefits you should play it on a well-set-up turntable with a good cartridge and a clean stylus; portable or poorly tuned systems will mask those improvements.
Will the Undercurrent LP play on my turntable and what do I need to know about playback?
Yes. The Undercurrent LP is a standard long-playing vinyl record and will play on any turntable that supports 33 1/3 RPM LPs. For best results, use a properly aligned tonearm and a cartridge suited to your system, as precise tracking and a clean stylus significantly influence clarity and channel separation. The Mobile Fidelity Silver Label pressing is intended for detailed, low-noise playback, so minimizing turntable rumble, maintaining correct tracking force, and avoiding worn styli will preserve the sound quality. This record is ideal for home listening on a dedicated audiophile setup; on cheap or poorly set-up systems you may not hear the nuanced dynamics that distinguish this edition.
What tracks are on this Undercurrent LP and are these the original recordings?
This MoFi Undercurrent LP contains the original track sequence from the Bill Evans and Jim Hall collaboration: My Funny Valentine; I Hear a Rhapsody; Dream Gypsy; Romain; Skating in Central Park; and Darn That Dream. The release is a numbered Mobile Fidelity Silver Label pressing, which indicates it was produced as a dedicated audiophile edition rather than a compilation. While specific mastering details vary by release, Silver Label editions are issued to present the recordings with heightened attention to analog transfer and pressing quality. Fans seeking the classic performances and original arrangements from the Evans-Hall session will find those performances preserved on this vinyl.
How should I care for and store the Mobile Fidelity Undercurrent LP to keep it sounding its best?
Store the LP vertically in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat, and use anti-static inner sleeves to reduce dust and friction. Clean the record gently with a carbon-fiber brush before each play and perform a deeper wet or vacuum cleaning when visibly soiled to lower surface noise and extend groove life. Handle the record by the edges and label to avoid fingerprints on playing surfaces, and replace the outer sleeve if it becomes worn to protect the cover art. These practices preserve sound quality over years; however, every play imparts some wear, so high-value copies benefit from limited plays or from creating a high-resolution digital rip for everyday listening.
Who should buy the MoFi Undercurrent LP and are there any limitations I should consider?
This LP is best for jazz listeners, collectors, and audiophiles who value analog presentation of the Bill Evans and Jim Hall recording and want a numbered, carefully produced edition. Its strengths are the intimate duo performances, analog warmth, and the presumed higher production standards of a Silver Label pressing, making it suitable for critical home listening. Limitations include the need for proper playback equipment to realize its advantages; listeners using basic or portable audio systems may not notice meaningful differences versus standard pressings. If you plan frequent casual listening or need a format for on-the-go use, consider a digital alternative for convenience while keeping the vinyl for focused listening sessions.
