Description
The disc is in near mint condition and plays without jumps. However, two pressing faults (very shallow dimples) do affect audio. Three minutes into side 1, at 1o`clock, fourteen successive, almost inaudible soft thumps and 3 minutes into side 2 at 11 o`clock (ie back to back) four successive, almost inaudible soft thumps. I can only assume that the audio equipment of my wife`s late cousin did not detect this problem. But for the fact that both dimples coincide with very quiet passages, I probably would not have noticed either. A third dimple at 1 o`clock near the end of side 1 has no effect.
The run offs are stamped ZAL- 4676-1E and ZAL- 4677-1E respectively.
The partially laminated, very thin card outer sleeve is sound, without scratches or tears, with a couple of short, very shallow creases, faint partial ring mark and a few finger marks on the back. Dated 60.3 on the back.
Titles: Symphony No.6 in F major, opus 68 Overture to "Prometheus" opus 41
L`Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, Ernest Ansermet, conductor.
