I grew up with this recording and it's great to hear it again. Thanks so much.
ReplyDeleteHi Philip,
DeleteAlmost wasn't this version of the Warhorse as was intending to transfer ('unplayed' copy) Kyla Greenbaum's on World Record Club (T8 - mono only). But this needed a litte was'n'brush-up - as with my 2nd copy of the Brahms PC1.
The last time they were on LP was a re-issue 4LP green box - as 'stereo transcriptions' - really faded & awful.
This has the advantage of being a later transfer - when EMI's transfers were more 'alive'; hate to think what the 1952 was like as have several of the 'transferred with wet string' variety..
May do a slight re-edit as the copy (not surprisingly) had been played more than once!
