One of an outstanding reviewers collection of Classical early stereo SXL ASD, SAX and test pressing rarities we have just had in, all nice clean originals, many played just the once. Add me to your favourite sellers list, as I will need months to put these in.
Clean condition 1st 1961 Uk EMI Pressed AMS 16008 (SR 90122) Mercury Living Presence Borodin & Rimsky-Korsakov. London SO under Dorati. Note the orchestra, which means this is the country of origin pressing. Audiophile valve sound, with the earliest type big stereo flipback & Arrows spine sleeve, and darkest plum & Silver labels. Record is near mint. A bit of old water staining to rear and a slight creased corner make the sleeve below mint.
As I said, the Orchestra are British, so this is the country of origin press (it states to the rear it was recorded at Wembley Town Hall, London). These EMI pressings are from the same people who give you the golden age cream and gold labelled ASD's, so the sound is full and warm in big stereo, as you would expect. The vinyl quality is regarded as superior to the US 1st issues, as EMI did not use recycled vinyl back then, Mercury did.
we send packed in hard card custom made new boxes.For more items of similar interest see our me page.
