Description

Classic Opus 3 from 1979

Opus 3’s goal was to produce the most natural recordings of acoustic instruments and voices as possible.  This included choosing the right place to make the recordings and the right equipment. They used AGFA PEM 468 tape and the recorders were a Telefunken M12, Telefunken M28, and a Revox G36 HS. The Microphones were AKG C12s, C24s, Neumann SM 69s, and Beyer M 160s. The monitor equipment was simply a Dynaco Stereo 70, Capella speakers, and electrostatic headphones.

This LP is like kaleidoscope of colorful and exciting musical material. The first cut, “Tiden Bara Gar” will have you up out of you chair with it’s great energy. Yes, it has some incredible imaging, but I can never get past just how alive it sounds. Side A, cut 5 is the best example of a correct soundstage I have ever heard. It is what they refer to as a symphonic band and the placement of the instruments in their own space on the stage is incredible. I could go on and on, but the liner notes explain each track.

I have owned this record since the '80s and it has never been played.  I rate the condition of the vinyl as NM only because the record was never shrink wrapped.  The label is NM.  The cover (or "sleeve") is NM- only because of the slightest of wrinkles on the spine.  This record includes a rare Mint condition insert called “Production of an Opus 3 record” (in English).  The Opus 3 catalog number is 79-00.
