So timeless that it became the subject of a 2025 documentary in which artists from multiple generations weigh in on it's impact on their lives and craft. 'Cat's in the Cradle' remains the main event on the singer-songwriter's 1974 album. Yet the legendary opening track also serves as a guidepost for the bold personal and social narratives that follow - not to mention the gorgeous folk-rock arrangements. As much of a singer as a storyteller, Chapin observes everything from the polarization of the nation to changes in moral standards and cultural priorities.Sourced from the original master tapes, pressed at Fidelity Record Pressing, housed in a Stoughton jacket, and strictly limited to 3,000 numbered copies, Mobile Fidelity's 180g 33RPM LP of Verities \u0026amp; Balderdash presents Chapin's fourth full-length in audiophile quality for the first time on vinyl. Captured during a golden era for sonics and production, the Top 5 effort features remarkable tonal balance and organic naturalism. Those valued aspects come into focus on this reissue, which plays with dead-quiet surfaces and a low noise floor. The newfound clarity, openness, and imaging underscore the lasting appeal of Chapin's tender deliveries and soulful timbre - as well as the ageless wisdom of his words.1\/4' \/ 15 IPS Dolby A analog master to DSD 256 to analog console to latheNumbered 180g 33RPM Vinyl LPLIMITED EDITION OF 3,000Track ListSide OneCat's in the CradleI Wanna Learn a Love SongShooting Star30,000 Pounds of BananasShe Sings Songs Without WordsSide TwoWhat Made America Famous?VacancyHalfway to HeavenSix String Orchestra\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eUPC \u0026gt; 821797161411\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFormat \u0026gt; New Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLabel \u0026gt; Mobile Fidelity\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShop online at \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.darksiderecords.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eDarkside Records\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance - BT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57420477366607,"sku":"821797161411","price":7.65,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0965\/8725\/2047\/files\/4491160-3522367.jpg?v=1775624487","url":"https:\/\/vibesvinyl.com\/products\/harry-chapin-verities-balderdash-180-gram","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
