Description
This is a very interesting record.
I'm no expert so hopefully someone will know more about this than me.
Decca first edition SXL 2013 Brahms Symphony No 1 in C Minor
Kubelik: Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra
Doesn't seem to be a wide band but it is grooved...see pics or ask for more.
Decca Stereophonic FFSS recording from 1959.
The record has a beautiful sheen and the VG+ grade really doesn't do it justice but here's why the lower grade (I try to be as honest as possible as I've been disappointed so many times!!).
Side 1: beautiful sheen with just one hairline that can't be felt but it can be seen under light.
Side 2: once again, beautiful sheen with one mark that can be felt. This mark is about 5 - 7 mm long and across track 2.
This is an extremely rare record. I have play tested it. It could benefit from a professional clean I'd say, but there is very little noise between tracks or in quieter moments but with it being 65 years old, the grooves will be full of dust etc.
The hairline on side 1 CANNOT be heard but there is a very small audible click with the deeper mark on side 2.
The sleeve is vg+ and shows some wear as expected with age but good care....see photos
What is even more interesting is that this is a Spanish Edition (I think). I've tried to research it but come up with nothing so far, so hopefully someone who really knows this world will know more than me.
Low start bid as I actually do want to sell it to make room.
Request:
Please if you do know information about this record and can be bothered, please do inbox me with info. I've been collecting records for years and past couple of years have leant into the classical world (makes the pop/ rock worlds look like child's play! 🤣). I am keen to learn as much as I can.
Happy bidding
