Description
SCHUBERT / KRIPS / LSO - " SYMPHONY No.9 IN C MAJOR (THE GREAT) ", The Decca Recording Company Ltd (SXL 2045) Stereo, 1958.
Very rare 1958, first UK Stereo pressing of the very rare Decca LP with the all important grooved wideband Decca Label featuring the "Original Recording by..." label text, plus the Blue Border rear sleeve - see photo.
English issue and pressing.
Professionally cleaned on my Moth record cleaning machine and then put in a fresh new poly-lined inner sleeve (the original inner sleeve has also been kept and will be included with this item).
In the name of getting the auction going, I will start this item at just 99p.
CONDITION:
VINYL = EXCELLENT (No scratches, no groove damage, no distortion, just the very lightest of spindle trails, etc. When checked under my bright grading lamp there are a few paper scuffs and extremely faint hairline marks only just visible on the records surface - the results of the record going in and out of it's inner sleeve no doubt and these minute visual imperfections are inaudible. On playback, there is some very faint surface noise just audibile during the silent run-in before the beginning of the tracks and occasionally during the silent gaps between certain tracks. Otherwise, it plays strong and clean - free from interuption from distortion, clicks, pops, etc. Overall, although it is not quite mint, it's imperfections are very slight and would make a good honest copy for someone to play and enjoy.
Note: for the purposes of this listing I have tested this LP on my Linn LP12 Sondek turntable - generally this is quite a critical test, but I must point out that I cannot guarantee exactly how this LP will sound on your turntable - common sense for most... but then this is ebay!!!)
SLEEVE = V.G.- (Not totally destroyed, but has some creases, a bit of delamination along the open edge, some general wear to the edges and corners and a 2-3cm tear on the rear sleeve - see photos for further clarification)
NOTE: I must point out that we are actually a long standing physical record shop, with many decades worth of selling, trading and grading records under our collective belts. Unlike so many of the self-proclaimed experts now selling records on ebay, we know how to grade records. Before bidding, please read my description carefully, decide how much this record is worth to you and place you max bid accordingly. Please also feel free to check out my feedback from the many other successful transactions I have made in the past.
ANY QUESTIONS? PLEASE DON'T HESITATE TO GET IN TOUCH!
HAPPY BIDDING!!!!!
