ATTENTION EARLY STEREO DECCA WIDEBAND CLASSICAL ALBUMS COLLECTORS!
HERE IS ONE OF DECCA'S EARLIEST CLASSSICAL STEREO ALBUMS ISSUED IN 1958,THE FIRST YEAR THEY ISSUED THEM ON THE WIDEBAND AND GROOVED LABELS,THE ORIGINAL RECORDINGS AND MADE IN ENGLAND RIM TEXT,THE SPECIAL FFSS INNER SLEEVE AND HOUSED IN THE BLUE BORDER FULLY LAMINATED COVER!
WILHELM KEMPFF(PIANO)PLAYS CHOPIN-VOL.2. DECCA SXL 2024 WITH THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE 1E/1K MATRIXES.
IT ONLY TURNS UP ONCE IN A BLUE MOON IN SUCH LOVELY CONDITION! THIS ONE HAS SOME VERY FAINT/LIGHT WISPY SURFACE MARKS,A LITTLE FAINT SURFACE NOISE HERE AND THERE,A FEW ISOLATED "POPS" AT QUIETER PASSAGES AND A COUPLE OF VERY SHORT LIVED CLICKS BUT NOT TOO OBTRUSIVE OR LONG LASTING.IT PLAYS NICELY WITH CLEAR SOUND-NO NASTY DISTORTION HAVING LISTENED TO IT AT HIGH VOLUME TWICE! LOVELY CLEAN LABELS-HARDLY ANY SPINDLE WEAR. SHARP PRINTING-NO LABEL WRITING,RIPS,STAINS ETC. THICK UK PRESSED VINYL. STRICTLY GRADED AS NEAR EXCELLENT CONDITION BUT MOST OF THE SOUND ON THIS DISC WOULD GRADE AS NEAR MINT. NO HORRIBLE LOUD SWISHES,NO STICKS OR JUMPS! GREAT SOUND! FAR BETTER THAN MOST EARLY STEREO LPs OF 55 YEARS AGO AND OF COURSE MOST CLASSICAL BUYERS WHO COULD AFFORD THIS LP,PLAYED IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN! THIS COPY HAS BEEN CHERISHED AND WELL CARED FOR WITH NOT TOO MANY PLAYS! PLENTY OF BASS! THERE IS STILL THE ORIGINAL AND CORRECT POLYLINED FFSS INNER SLEEVE AS SUPPLIED IN 1958 WITH THE "BRITISH AND FOREIGN PATENTS PENDING"CREDIT DENOTING ONE OF THE EARLIEST EVER PRINTED FOR EARLY STEREO LPs. THERE WAS MINIMAL SALES FOR THIS LP ISSUED AT A TIME WHEN HARDLY ANY BRITISH BUYERS HAD EQUIPMENT TO PLAY STEREO LPs! REMEMBER THAT THE LATE 1950s STEREO LPs AND EQUIPMENT WERE VERY EXPENSIVE-MOST BUYERS PURCHASED MONO UNTIL THE MID 1960s.
AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PHOTO,THE FULLY LAMINATED FRONT COVER IS VERY CLEAN WITH JUST A FEW TINY EDGE CREASES-NO WRITING,RIPS OF REPAIRS! PLEASE SEE ALL OF THE PHOTOS!
HERE'S YOUR CHANCE TO OWN A GENUINE PIECE OF CLASSICAL MUSIC HISTORY!
A LOW REALISTIC £12 STARTING PRICE.
Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.
Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.
The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!
SHARP,CLEAN LABELS!
This is my honest grading!!!
Please see my listening policy below.
I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
