Description
SILVESTRI / VIENNA PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA / DVORAK - " SYMPHONY NO.2 IN D MINOR ", HMV / EMI Records Ltd. (ASD 396) Stereo, 1961.
Very rare English, 1st pressing, Stereo LP with original cream and gold label and front laminated, flip-back sleeve.
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 retained and included in the auction - see photo)
CONDITION:
VINYL = EX- (No scratches, no groove damage, no distortion, no excessive surface noise, only light spindle trails, etc. In normal daylight the vinyl appears perfectly clean, under a bright grading lamp I can make out a couple of very lightest of paper scuffs - although these are purely visual and during playback, these very slight cosmetic flaws do not correspond directly to any audible defects.
On playback, there is some faint surface noise during the silent run-in (in the pressing) which mostly disappears as soon as the music starts - although not enough to ruin the listening, there was some faint sporadic background noise audible from time to time throughout the first third of both sides of this LP. Generally it plays well though - strong, clean and without interuptions from clunks, clicks or distortion, etc.
Not quite an untouched museum piece or a sterile CD (thank goodness!), but a good honest copy of a great LP for someone out there to play and enjoy as it was originally intended.
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 = EX- (No big creases, rips, tears, defacing, etc. The front and back cover are in pretty good shape with just a few small creases in the laminate along the spine. Also had to be marked down for a bit of waer to the edges and corners, a tiny bit of damage to one of the flipbacks and the rear isn't as white as it once was - 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 jokers 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!!!!!
