Description

This is a very nice copy of Classic Records 180g pressing of Earl Wild’s recording of Gershwin’s “Piano Concerto in F” with the Boston Pops Orchestra conducted by Arthur Fiedler on 4 single-sided 180 g.  45 RPM records.  Additional works on the records are: “Cuban Overture”, and “I Got Rhythm Variations”.  The 45 RPM set is a complete recording LSC-2586.  When I first bought this new, the records were cleaned with a VPI record cleaner and treated with LAST record preservative.  More recently it was recleaned with Audio Intelligent Fluids on a VPI cleaner and on an Audio Desk ultra sonic record cleaner.  It has also been demagnetized with a Furutech DeMag. The recording is very spacious and dynamic.  Side 1 has some light intermittant ticks about 3 minutes for about 40 seconds.  The rest of the side is mostly very quiet with a few light ticks here and there.  Side 2 plays mostly very quietly with only a few light ticks over the side. Side 3 has a ¾” mark on the vinyl where I had dropped some Last record preservative but plays mostly very quietly with only a few light ticks over the entire side. Side 4 has no noticeable surface noise.  There are no scratches or scuffs. I have only played the records a few times on various VPI tables I have owned (HW-19 MKIV, TNT 3.5, and Classic 4) using either Lyra or Benz Mico Ruby cartridges. The sound is naturally open and detailed. The covers are the original glossy jackets that Classic used for their 180g issues.    There are no seam splits, but there is some slight compression on the lower left cover of each disk.  Only side A of each LP is pressed.  Side B is blank.  For this set, only the first record has the regular 180g jacket while the other three 45 records are in a plain white jacket with a sticker as was originally issued by Classic Records. Multiple records can be combined in an order to save shipping costs.
