Description
Extremely rare, original pressing of this great pair of Shostakovich String Quartets, played by the legendary Borodin Quartet and recorded in Moscow during Mercury's first trip to Russia. Promo stamp on back
Record condition: EX+/EX+ (couple light scuffs but plays very close to NM- except perhaps 3, 4 light clicks!)
Cover condition: EX+ (very slight ring/corner wear)
Stampers: RFR1/RFR1 dark maroon label pressing
Note: I'm a collector, not a dealer. The reason I'm selling is to downsize my collection. Every record I offer was hand-picked based on its merits on music, performance, and sonics (not necessarily in that order!). I will list recording credentials such as producer, engineer, venue, date, etc. as I believe as an educated buyer, these will offer crucial info for an unfamiliar record to make a buying judgement. Hope you'll find this useful!
