In 2016, Macy Gray arrived at The Hirsch Center, a former Roman Catholic Church in Brooklyn, to create Stripped, one of the most unexpected and extraordinary albums in her discography. Produced by the audiophile label Chesky Records, Stripped was captured over two days with Gray accompanied by an elite ensemble of seasoned jazz masters: guitarist Russell Malone, bassist Daryl Johns, drummer Ari Hoenig, and trumpeter Wallace Roney. Unfiltered and deeply intimate, Gray delivers acoustic reinterpretations of her key signature hits, including "I Try" and "Sweet Baby," alongside infectious originals like "Annabelle" and inspired jazz makeovers of Metallica's "Nothing Else Matters" and Bob Marley's "Redemption Song." With minimalist arrangements that allow her inimitable, rasp-tinted voice to take center stage, Stripped revealed a whole new side of the Grammy-winning vocalist. Gray's debut jazz effort was both a commercial success and a favorite among listeners, taking home "Best Jazz Album with Vocals" at the Independent Music Awards and debuting at No. 3 on the Billboard Jazz Albums chart. Following it's SACD release, Stripped makes it's return to vinyl, reissued on 180g One-step Pressing Vinyl LP as part of the Chesky Original Masters series.

SHIPPING:
We ship Monday through Friday. Orders typically ship within 24-72 hours. Tracking is sent to the email you provide at check out and may take a few days to become active.
Any items ordered with Pre-Orders will be held until they can all ship together. If you need in stock items faster please order them seperately.
LOCAL PICK UP POLICY:
Due to a large amount of unclaimed local pick ups over the years we have updated our policy. Any orders that remain unclaimed after 90 days from the initial "ready for pick up" notification will be considered abandoned and returned to our system without refund. If you are having issues picking up your order within this time frame please contact us via orders@1234gorecords.com. If you need your order shipped we can easily do so for an added shipping fee.
RETURNS:
Returns are only accepted on damaged or defective items. Return requests must be made within 7 days of delivery. Please save the original packaging.
If you own a Crosley, Victrola or any other lower end turntable that has no ability to adjust the weight of the tone arm and are experiencing skipping on a new record please try the "Penny Trick". Simply place a penny on the top of the cartidge and it should provide enough weight to resolve your issues. While a great entry to the world of vinyl we do recommend upgrading to a turntable with a tone arm that can be adjusted as this issue will randomly occur. We do not take returns in these cases.
Resellers: If you are buying from us for resale we honestly don't mind. However, please don't panic if something you bought suddenly isn't flipable for more money and then try to return stuff to us because you feel like you made a bad investment choice. Despite our outsized reputation we're a small shop, not amazon. Absorbing these costs adds up on places like ours. Plus a little patience always tends to pay off.
CANCELLATIONS:
Due to an increasing number of payment processors no longer returning transaction fees to sellers on cancelled orders and rising labor costs any orders or pre-orders that need to be cancelled before shipment will be assessed a 5% cancellation/restocking fee on the order total including shipping and any other taxes or fees associated with the order.
Thank you for your understanding.
