1971 David Axelrod's Rock Interpretation Of Handel's Messiah Vinyl LP Record VG+
Record Grade per Goldmine Standard: VG+
THE TEXT OF THIS WORK (BY CHARLES JENNINGS) IS THE SAME AS USED BY HANDEL IN 1741 WITH SLIGHT MODIFICATIONS. HANDELS MELODIES AND COUNTER- POINT ARE SO BEAUTIFUL THAT IT WAS AS MUCH FUN AS WORK TO BORROW AND ALTER (OR,PROBABLY TO SOME, MESS UP) FOR MY INTERPRETATION. On this album is the work of George Frideric Handel, as interpreted by David Axelrod, an artist of this century who shares the same bold, ener- getic sense of pride as the great composers of the past. Until now an attempt to condense and modify this classic work on a contemporary level has been avoided, probably because of its prominence and singular distinction. It is hoped that Axelrod’s work will bring to light and punctuate the creative acumen of Handel in what is considered his finest—the Messiah.
