Tom Petty - Wildflowers (1994) {2025 Because Sound Matters One-Step}

‘Wildflowers’ was originally recorded, mixed and mastered on analog tape, so this One-Step version is a true All Analog presentation as Chris Bellman carefully cut 7 lacquers from the original master tapes as the source for this incredible sounding release!

Tom’s audio archivist Ryan Ulyate was involved at every step and provided invaluable information and research along the way – including keeping a close eye on the master tapes as lacquer after lacquer was cut. ‘Wildflowers’ original album package designer, Jeri Heiden was brought in to create the beautiful double gatefold jacket.

We listened to and analyzed many different vinyl pressings, CDs and Hi Rez audio to be certain the magic coming off the tapes would transcend every other pressing – all of which sound great. We hope you agree that we accomplished the goal of creating the best sounding version of ‘Wildflowers’ ever.
