JOSEF KRIPS conducts
THE LONDON SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA in
SCHUBERT:"SYMPHONY NO.9 IN C.MAJOR"
(THE GREAT). DECCA SXL 2045.
YES! THIS ALBUM IS NOW 55 YEARS OLD AND IS AN EXCITING PERFORMANCE IN SPARKLING SOUND!
IT ONLY TURNS UP ONCE IN A BLUE MOON AND THIS ONE HAS SOME LIGHT SURFACE MARKS,A LITTLE SURFACE NOISE HERE AND THERE,A FEW SHORT LIVED FAINT CLICKS AND ISOLATED "POPS" AT QUIETER PASSAGES BUT NOT TOO OBTRUSIVE.IT PLAYS NICELY WITH CLEAR SOUND-NO NASTY DISTORTION HAVING LISTENED TO IT AT HIGH VOLUME TWICE! LOVELY CLEAN LABELS-JUST SOME SLIGHT SPINDLE WEAR BUT SHARP PRINTING-NO LABEL WRITING,RIPS,STAINS ETC. THICK UK PRESSED VINYL. STRICTLY GRADED AS VERY GOOD CONDITION DUE TO THE AFOREMENTIONED LIGHT CLICKS AND POPS BUT 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 PLAYED A NUMBER OF TIMES AND ENJOYED BUT SOUNDS VIBRANT AND PUNCHY! 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 COVER HAS A SMALL PIECE MISSING AT THE FRONT AND BACK AS WELL SOME TEARS AND A FEW TINY EDGE CREASES+SOME LAMINATION PEELING BUT DESPITE THIS NO WRITING AND ALL THE SLEEVE NOTES ARE COMPLETE AND CAN BE EASILY READ-THE WAFER THIN CARD USED ON THIS LP IS THE MAIN REASON WHY THE MAJORITY TURN UP LIKE THIS AND SO OFTEN WITH NO COVER AT ALL!
PLEASE SEE ALL OF THE PHOTOS!
YOUNGER COLLECTORS OR THOSE ON A STRICT BUDGET CAN USUALLY ONLY DREAM OF OWNING THIS RECORD-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!!!!
