RIMSKY-KORSAKOFF Scheherazade
Fritz Reiner Conducts The Chicago Symphony Orchestra
New & Sealed Audiophile Vinyl Record
Record Label: Classic Records/RCA LSC 2446 (Living Stereo)
Here it is: The most famous audiophile "classical" recording of all time, mainly thanks to The Absolute Sound, which has been hyping the original "Shaded (and/or "White") Dog" for around 25 years. It even received the "cover treatment" and a big article in issue 108.
Limited Edition #1-0403
Highly collectable release from audiophile label, Classic Records. This title was mastered by Classic Records at Half Speed from the original source master tapes. An all-analog, tube amplification process was used at every step. Classic Records used a proprietary vinyl that guaranteed virtually no surface noise and sonically superior dynamics.
Classic Records pride themselves for releasing each album with the original artwork, LP labels and any other materials which were included with original pressings.
Record is new and still sealed in it's original plastic sleeve. Perforation is completely intact. Top right corner has a tiny stub, otherwise no flaws or blemishes.
Review: Scheherazade was one of the finest RCA "original recordings" made in the U.S. It has all their unique strengths, but with fewer, and less audible, weaknesses. It isn't RCA's "best classical recording", let alone "the best classical recording of all time", but the paralyzing sonics in the 4th movement might still make this a "must have" LP for many listeners.
