Dr. Dre Notes:
When originally released back in 1992 The Chronic was a single LP with long sides. It was a gift that vinyl even existed for the original release - CDs ruled the day. By 2001 this landmark recording was split across 4 sides which allowed for a more authentic audio listening experience to what Dr. Dre had created.
Now we have The Chronic One-Step release which takes Dr. Dre’s production to a whole new listening level. The original analog master tapes were completely sequenced and in great shape - ready to cut! Of course we used Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering where every version of The Chronic had been mastered, to put the magic of the tapes onto the Definitive Sound Series One Step!
