Description
Decca SXL 2280 first pressing (wide band grooved - "ORIGINAL RECORDING BY" at 10 o'clock - ED1) recording of the Offenbach "Gaite Parisienne" and ballet music from "Faust" by Gounod played the Royal Opera House Orchestra, Covent Garden conducted by Georg Solti.
Recording first published 1961.
This record is part of my personal collection. The cover is in good condition apart from the tear visible in the picture - this has been repaired in the past with sellotape that is now fading. The condition of the record itself is excellent - there are one or two very faint surface scuffs visible under strong light. The spindle hole suggests only very occasional playing. I would expect the surface noise of this record to be minimal. Hence the realistic starting price for this now rare stereo record. The original FFSS inner sleeve shown is also included.
I have been collecting classical records for many years and have decided to sell most of them - I now listen primarily to CDs. I have a large number of Decca SXL WBG, EMI W&G ASD and Columbia B&S SAX LPs that I will list when I get time - some very rare. I am not a record dealer.
I will be pleased to combine multiple wins to save on postage.
Good luck.
