Double vinyl LP pressing. 2015 release by the Grammy-winning saxophonist, arranger, composer, bandleader and producer Tragically, this was Bob Belden's last recording – he died of a massive heart attack on May 20 at age 58, just weeks before the final mastering of this chilling opus. But the concept had been long set in place for this recording with his band Animation, featuring guest bassist Bill Laswell. To help Belden realize his futuristic 2001: A Space Odyssey-inspired vision for Machine Language, he enlisted vocalist Kurt Elling as narrator for this cyberpunk opera. "My own memory of any conversations regarding the piece is that there was minimal discussion before making the voice over," said Elling, who had previously appeared on Belden's 1996 project, Shades of Blue. "The only real direction I received was to 'sound like a sad, well-spoken computer.' I did the actual recording by myself at a studio in St Louis, with Belden occasionally commenting via ISDN. I did a cold read once down, without music, and expected Bob to make whatever edits and adjustments he wanted. I was in and out of the studio in an hour." Belden's text for Elling reads like an excerpt from Philip K. Dick's 1968 novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, which later became the literary source for the 1982 Ridley Scott movie Blade Runner. And the darkly foreboding music, performed by Pete Claggett on muted trumpet, Roberto Verastegui on electric keyboard, Matt Young on drums, Belden on soprano sax and Laswell on electric bass guitar, takes part of its inspiration from Miles Davis' 32-minute ambient requiem for the recently-deceased Duke Ellington, "He Loved Him Madly" (from 1974's Get Up With It).

This stuff DELIVERS 🖤
I was skeptical because…late night, total BS infomercials of yesteryear. Before the delivery guy was off my porch, I was trying this out. Check out the pics. This cupholder is from a 2010 vehicle— 16+ years of sun fading, easily wiped away. Super fast. (I did two coats on this cupholder and it was a bit better than the first coat). It doesn’t take much product or elbow grease. Rub it on and in, wait a few, give it another wipe and done. Like magic. No harsh smell (there is a smell, but it dissipates quickly). There’s a tiny bit of a slippery feel (not greasy) that also dissipates. Worth every penny.

Not bad but doesn't last a long time.
Works well but doesn't really last long. Proper application is very important also. Take your time if doing it yourself but it was recommended to me by a professional automobile repair store that I have a lot of faith in. Unfortunately. My wife. I'm sure most of you understand.
