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).

Best air flow
Size: 9.6" x 11.1" x 2.2"
I have a 2022 ram 1500 four-door. The factory filter from the ram dealer is about $40 but it’s not reusable. That was the only one I found that had good airflow into the cabin. I tried several other brands but the airflow was reduced excessively. The ram filter was 15 mph, most of the other aftermarkets dropped the airflow to about 9 mph. I just installed a K&N reusable filter and the airflow is back up to 15 mph. Great job K&N!!

Fits Well and Reusable. I'm Happy.

For less than the price of 2 disposable FRAM CV11671 cabin filters for my 2019 RAM 1500 and this will last forever. If it gets wet, like I've had happen with the paper throw-away filters due to stuff falling off trees in the spring and clogging cowl area water drains and backing up into filter ( yeah, that's a thing ) and can clean and dry this filter and reuse. Great directions came in the box along with a sticker to point out that this is a lifetime filter so someone doesn't throw it away. Do this yourself. Don't let some auto repair shop talk you into it. I was getting tires balanced recently and heard a quote they gave over the phone of $79 to do this. I don't know what kind of vehicle that was for but this ain't rocket science. Don't get ripped off. Now back to this filter. There is no arrow for air flow so I figure it flows well both ways and just put it in with the K and N logo right side up and facing out. It's not a straight in shot the way RAM positioned the opening for the cabin filter slot but was no big deal. Also realize this isn't a perfect square filter ...It's a rectangle so don't try to shove the fat end in and say it doesn't fit. I haven't noticed any air flow differences with the heating / ac system but some people say they do. I'm just happy I don't have to buy anymore disposable filters and can dry this if it gets wet. The cleaning and refresh spray kit is #99-6000 that comes with a 8oz and 12oz bottle and I'm trying to find that cheaper somewhere for when I do clean this thing.

Can’t go wrong with K&N
Size: 9.6" x 11.1" x 2.2"
So I recently took my pickup in to have some recall work done, half way through the process I got a call from the dealership stating I needed a new air filter and that a new one would cost nearly $60. I chuckled and told then to put the old one back in and I immediately came to Amazon and ordered this cabin filter. I’ve used K&N products in the past and have never been sorry, and that is the case with this lifetime filter. Upon installing this filter I noticed an IMMEDIATE difference in air flow into the cabin, it even smelled better. If this filter ever gets dirty Ira easy to clean and reinstall, paying for itself over time. Do yourself a favor and pick one of these up, you will not be sorry.

Fit my Subaru Forester perfectly!
This fit my 2024 Subaru Forester perfectly. The filters exhibited a high quality construction and was packaged well. Installation was easy and saved me a lot of $ vs. having my dealer install an OEM filter.
