After nearly 10 years as Argo, the name of Chess Records’ jazz imprint was supposed to be the only thing about it that changed. But as Cadet Records assumed its new identity in the mid-’60s, the influence of the dawning psychedelic era, a boom of recording technology advances and, crucially, the arrival of a cadre of eager artists and brilliant producers put the label on a new, bewildering course to greatness. Tragic circumstances would bring about the label’s unraveling almost as rapidly as its meteoric rise, but not before Cadet released some of most audacious, boundary-pushing jazz, soul, blues and rock albums of the ’60s and ’70s — music that’s inspired generations of superstars, DJs and cratediggers ever since.

Hör från labelns mastermind
Vår låda skapades i nära samarbete med Cadets ursprungliga labelchef, Marshall Chess, som skriver förordet till liner-noterna, är starkt representerad i denna säsong av VMP Anthology-podden och som personligen välkomnar dig till lådan. Det är inte ofta du får höra historier från ett label — och albumen från detta label — direkt från källan på det här sättet.
Podcasts i en värld av spänning
Med VMPs egen Stephen Anderson som värd kommer podcasten för den här lådan att dyka djupt ner i alla utgåvor och berättelser från artisterna liv. Hör om hur labeln grundades, varför Chess-stamgästerna hoppade över till Cadet och om kaninerna som Ramsey Lewis har på omslaget till hans album.
(För det mesta) AAA mästerverk
Första upplagan är begränsad till 1,000 exemplar på 180g svart vinyl. Sex av albumen har blivit AAA-masterade av Bernie Grundman; Sida B av Mother Nature’s Son överfördes från masterbanden och klipptes från en digital källa för att korrigera en passage av bandskador. Electric Mud klipptes AAA av Barry Grint på Alchemy Mastering vid AIR. Vi tror att dessa åtta album — som har släppts sparsamt och blivit alltmer sällsynta på andrahandsmarknaden — aldrig har låtit bättre.
Var snäll och berätta för mig hur historien slutar
Läs berättelsen om dessa åtta album i ett mycket speciellt 36-sidigt lyssningsbok och fotobok som skrivits av VMPs egen Stephen Anderson, som även var den verkställande producenten för denna box.
Premium minneslåda
Designad internt på VMP, dessa skivor förvaras i en originalbox som inspirerats av de omedelbart igenkännbara blå och vita etiketterna på Cadet-utgåvor.
How Was The Audio Sourced?
Lacquers for all titles except for Electric Mud — which was cut AAA by Barry Grint at Alchemy Mastering — were cut by Bernie Grundman at Bernie Grundman Mastering. Of those cut by Grundman, all were mastered AAA with the exception of Side B of Mother Nature’s Son, which was transferred from the master tapes and cut from a digital source to amend a passage of tape degradation. All eight titles are pressed on 180g black vinyl at GZ.
Podcast and Listening Notes
Get the full story of Cadet Records through our podcast and Listening Notes booklet. The booklet — 36 pages long with photos from the era — found in your box covers the story of Cadet from its start to its finish. Our podcast will offer a discussion of all the albums and their histories.
FAQs
Har du en fråga?
What is VMP Anthology?
VMP Anthology is the vinyl box set, reinvented. It aims to use music to tell a story, and gives space for lots of listening, learning, and conversation along the way.
What is VMP?
VMP started as a record of the month club in 2013 and has expanded into an online record store and magazine.
How much is shipping? How will shipping work?
Shipping is free in the U.S. and $20 internationally. Records will be sent in one shipment. Orders are expected to ship in May 2023. Timeline is subject to change. We will notify you of any shipping updates.
How is the experience structured?
We created VMP Anthology for people who recognize that every album has a deep story to tell. By breaking up the albums, we give you space to truly listen and absorb each individual recording, listen to the podcast and soak it in. Of course, this is just a suggestion!
Do I need to be a VMP member to purchase this?
Nope! We built VMP Anthology as a way for all fans to experience music more deeply, and VMP membership is not required.
Is this available internationally? What about customs?
Yes, shipping is available in 16 countries in addition to the U.S. (view all FAQs for more details). Due to the box value and carrier constraints, international customers are responsible for customs and duties. When shipping to a country that is subject to VAT, this will also be due upon receipt.
What is Afterpay?
Afterpay is an interest-free financing option that allows you to make four bi-weekly (every two weeks) installment payments rather than one upfront payment. If you choose Afterpay at checkout, you will be redirected to the Afterpay site to create an account and to complete your payment. You won’t be charged any interest or fees, as long as your payments are made on time. At this time, Afterpay is only available for customers in the United States.
How can I purchase this at the Member Price?
To get the Member Price, you must be an active VMP Member for our monthly record subscription (and make sure you are logged in).
