London SLA 1231-2 Mahler: Sym. #3/Mehta, Japanese King Records 2LP (TAS list)

$

31

Incrediblly powerful music, performance, and recording. The bass drum whacks at the beginning of 1st movement must rank the most realistic ever committed to record. Mehta/LAPO at their best. This is a very fine Japanese pressing done by King Records on very thick vinyl. Curiously, they use the "ffss" label that's no longer used by both London and Decca. But as a collector, it's always a welcome sight!

Note: I'm a collector, not a dealer. The reason I'm selling is to downsize my collection. Every record I offer was hand-picked based on its merits on music, performance, and sonics (not necessarily in that order!). I will list recording credentials such as producer, engineer, venue, date, etc. as I believe as an educated buyer, these will offer crucial info for an unfamiliar record to make a buying judgement. Hope you'll find this useful!
