Alanis Morissette Jagged Little Pill –UD1S 180g 45RPM SuperVinyl 2LP Box Set Mofi Vinyl Ranked the 69th Greatest Album of All Time by Rolling Stone, included on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame’s list of 200 Definitive Albums, and featured in several books about essential albums, Jagged Little Pill remains more than a blockbuster that has sold more than 17 million copies in the U.S. and 33 million units worldwide. It’s a statement, an attitude, a soundtrack for anyone seeking inspiration, an outlet, or permission to be themselves. Sourced from the original master tapes, pressed at Fidelity Record Pressing on MoFi SuperVinyl, and strictly limited to 4,000 numbered copies, Mobile Fidelity’s UltraDisc One-Step 180g 45RPM 2LP box set of Jagged Little Pill presents the landmark effort in audiophile-grade sound for the first time. A key part of the record’s appeal and accessibility — Glen Ballard’s smooth production, touches that help Morissette’s exposed-nerve fare seem more accessible and melodic — comes through on this special 30th anniversary edition with an openness, presence, and dynamic explosiveness that make the vocalist’s songs that much more real and visceral. The singer’s distinctive mezzo-soprano deliveries — the octave-rippling highs, dark-hued lows, dramatic crescendos, belted choruses, wispy reflections, occasional yodels — resonate with full-range ardor and depth. As crucial as anything on the record, Morissette’s confessional words take center stage like never before. Ditto the instrumentation and atmospherics that form the magnetic backgrounds of the songs. Key in on the contributions from Red Hot Chili Peppers Dave Navarro and Flea on “You Oughta Know” to Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers’ co-founder Benmont Tench’s organ playing on six tracks. The deluxe packaging of Mobile Fidelity’s Jagged Little Pill UD1S set underscores the work’s distinguished status. Housed in a slipcase, the LPs come in special foil-stamped jackets with faithful-to-the-original graphics that illuminate the splendor of the recording. Benefitting from an ultra-low noise floor, superior groove definition, and dead-quiet surfaces, this UD1S reissue is for listeners who prize sound quality and desire to engage themselves in everything involved with the album, including the now-iconic cover art that juxtaposes two portraits of the then-21-year-old singer-songwriter and features typewriter font. That script — which suggests a raw, blood-on-the-floor document created without modern aids like spell check or language correction — hints at the heightened level of unvarnished intimacy, honesty, and catharsis Morissette offers throughout Jagged Little Pill. Named after a phrase uttered on the astute “You Learn,” the album explores the frank emotions, inherent contradictions, and wishful desires people feel everyday but are often too afraid to express. Morissette displays no such fear or shyness. Akin to a woman reading from a diary, Morissette leaves nothing to the imagination as she skewers hypocrisy during the poignant “Forgiven,” seeks recompense on the vengeful “You Oughta Know,” and spills her guts on the soul-purging “All I Really Want.” For all the anger and bile ascribed to the singer and record, Jagged Little Pill is incredibly healthy and upbeat. Morissette uses the catchy pop-rock frameworks and moody ambience to suss out situations, to learn, to give hope. There’s the clever yearning of “Hand in My Pocket”; wry contrarianism of “Ironic”; kind-heartedness of “Hand over Feet”; the live-and-let-live spirit of “You Learn” – all positive and amiable. Throughout Jagged Little Pill, the ever-approachable Morissette connects with listeners who recognize themselves in her — and has an intelligent conversation with anyone who wants to participate. It seemed almost everyone did. In addition to the mammoth sales that make the effort the 17th-best-selling album in American history, Jagged Little Pill collected four Grammy Awards, two American Music Awards, three Billboard Music Awards, and eight Juno Awards. In 2018, the record became the basis for a musical that netted 15 Tony nominations on Broadway. Ironic? Anything but. Jagged Little Pill transcends generations, gender, and trends. As Morissette sings on the opening “All I Really Want,”, the album represents “deliverance” — “a place to find common ground.” Track Listing All I Really Want You Oughta Know Perfect Hand in My Pocket Right Through You Forgiven You Learn Head over Feet Mary Jane Ironic Not the Doctor Wake Up New Quick view Add to wishlist Add to basket Television – Marquee Moon – MoFi Ultradisc 180g 45RPM 2LP Box Set £165.00 New Quick view Add to wishlist Add to basket Television – Marquee Moon – MoFi – Hybrid SACD £42.00 New Quick view Add to wishlist Add to basket Nina Simone – Silk & Soul – 180g Translucent Red Vinyl LP £39.95 New Quick view Add to wishlist Add to basket The Butterfield Blues Band East-West – Mofi Mono Hybrid SACD £42.00 New Quick view Add to wishlist Add to basket Emerson, Lake & Palmer Brain Salad Surgery – Mofi 180g 33RPM Vinyl LP £48.00 New Quick view Add to wishlist Add to basket Emerson, Lake & Palmer Brain Salad Surgery – Mofi Hybrid SACD £42.00 New Quick view Add to wishlist Add to basket Carly Simon Anticipation – Mofi 180g 45RPM 2LP Vinyl Record £79.95 Quick view Add to wishlist Add to basket Charles Munch, Boston Symphony Orchestra – Ravel: Daphnis And Chloe ( RCA Living Stereo 45 RPM Series) Analogue Productions 180 Gram 45RPM Double Vinyl LP £78.00 Quick view Add to wishlist Add to basket Fritz Reiner – Richard Strauss: Also Sprach Zarathustra ( RCA Living Stereo 45 RPM Series) Analogue Productions 180 Gram 45RPM Double Vinyl LP £78.00 Quick view Add to wishlist Add to basket Gordon Lightfoot – Sundown (Acoustic Sounds 40 Series) Analogue Productions 180 Gram 45RPM Vinyl LP £78.00
