Background -

The final issue of this group, another disc of British Lollipops from Lyrita, finds Nicholas Braithwaite again carrying the main conducting burden, with a variety of orchestras, but ably aided by William Alwyn in his own Festival March of 1950, Vernon Handley in a not quite idiomatic reading of Bax's Irish Landscape and a capriciously lively view of "The Fair-Day" from Hamilton Harty's An Irish Symphony, and Andrew Davis putting plenty of zest into Elgar's Pomp & Circumstance March No. 5. The programme is well balanced, showing the variety that British music can encompass, and the sound is typically vivid and characterful. All very enjoyable.

All these discs highlight again the talent of Nicholas Braithwaite and the fine work he does with Lyrita, and elsewhere, to promulgate the cause of much relatively unknown British music. I look forward eagerly to the next releases from this source. - Doug Hammond

CONDITION Details:

The LP jacket is in excellent plus overall condition. The jacket is tight and solid, with NO seam splits, NO cut out marks and NO discoloration. The jacket does have a small corner bend and some writing on the back cover, nothing serious - see the pictures with this listing as they are of the actual item.  

The LP is in near mint overall condition! There are no serious marks on the vinyl - virtually as NEW, pressed by NIMBUS. There is some dust and a finger print or two on the vinyl, nothing serious. However, this is not a new audiophile LP....some extraneous sound is inevitable and should be expected for a vintage LP. There are NO serious spindle marks on the record labels either. This is a superb example of a rare, out of print classical LP.

A Short Note About LP GRADING -

  • Mint = Only used for sealed items.
  • Near Mint = Virtually flawless in every way.
  • Near Mint Minus = Item has some minor imperfections, some audible.
  • Excellent = Item obviously played and enjoyed with some noise.
  • Very Good Plus = Many more imperfections which are noticeable and obtrusive.

For best results, always thoroughly clean your LPs before playing them.

LPs can be audiophile quality pressings (any collector of fine MFSL, half speeds, direct to discs, Japanese/UK pressings etc., can attest to the difference a quality pressing can make to an audio system).

Do not let this rarity slip by!
