JOHANN SEBASTIAN BACH - Brandenburg Concertos 4 & 5 - performed by ARS MUSICA directed by Lyndon Lawless - released in 1981 on Timegate - CATALOGUE # TG 234 . 

This Audiophile lp features ARS MUSICA performing Bach's Brandenburg Concertos 4 & 5 . 

This lp was produced for demonstration by Timegate (DCM ) in 1981 and has been described as, " The Finest Chamber Music Recording Ever Made " .  I've seen reports saying that only between 1,000 to 2,000 pressings were made.  Some of the personnel involved were:   Mark Levinson ( who provided most of the recording equipment ), Engineer Peter McGrath ( who did the recording ) and Bob Ludwig at Masterdisk ( Mastering) .  The pressing was done by Europadisc on the finest Teldec vinyl.  (Most of this information comes from the back of the cover/sleeve.)

Grading

VINYL/LP/RECORD:

Sealed

Near Mint (NM) Our highest grade for an opened LP.  A nearly perfect record. 

Very Good Plus (VG+)  Previous owner took good care of the LP but there are some signs that it was played and handled.  The vinyl surfaces will show some signs of wear - slight scuffs or very light scratches) .  Some surface noise may be present .    

Very Good (VG)   The same defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced.  Surface noise will probably be evident , especially in quiet passages or during a song's intro and fade . 

I will not list an LP that I grade below VG.

COVER/SLEEVE:

Sealed

Near Mint (NM) Our highest grade for an opened LP.  A nearly perfect cover.

Very Good Plus (VG+)  Previous owner took good care of the cover but there are some signs that it was handled.  

Very Good (VG)   The same defects found in a VG+ sleeve will be more pronounced.  

For covers , anything below VG is poor and will have very significant wear, damage, etc.  I will list lps with covers that are poor provided that the vinyl is VG or better.
