Description

V/A - MUSIC PLAYERS 70 - LP - Kiwi Pacific Records - New Zealand - 1971

with EDWIN CARR / JOHN RIMMER / BELA BARTOK


Second LP with electronic music on Kiwi Pacific Records after Lilburn's "Elegy" from 1967 this compilation, hence the title, focuses on the quartet founded in 1970. 

Music Players 70 is Barry Margan (piano), David James (Piano), Gary Brain (percussion) and Herbert Jones (percussion). 

As you may have wished they play compositions for piano and percussions, some being especially commission for the group.


Side A 

shows the virtuosity of the musicians on the difficult "Sonata for Two Pianos and Percussion" by Bela Bartok


Side B 

opens with a rather post-modern but nontheless powerfull early composition of Edwin Carr that could be a child of 

Tchaikovski and Takemitsu if ever time and space would have made it possible. 

The last piece "Composition 5 for Percussion and Electronic Sounds" is what you expect from this record I guess and is another stone from the genius John Rimmer's path. 

Solo percussion discussing with electronics blending the genres in a filmesque like narration. 

The ideal soundtrack for a sci-fi czech animation movie of the late 60's ? 

Great !!!

GRADING :


M (MINT)

Sealed, never played, new in its original packaging.


NM (NEAR MINT)

Almost perfect copy, never or very rarely played. At worst, one or two surface marks, generally insignificant and due to inner sleeve. This the highest grade for an unsealed record.


EX (EXCELLENT)

Very clean copy, some insignificant surfaces marks (hairlines). This record has been rarely played, on good equipment and treated with care. The cover has very minor flaws: a name or discrete initials, low wear corners, very slight ringwear.


VG + + (VERY GOOD + +)

More surface marks.Minor flaws or cover wear, minor edge wear. This is generally the grade given to a 20 to 50 years old record with a "normal" life, treated with care, but listened and handled regularly by his former owner.


VG + (VERY GOOD +)

Has been played a lot, shows multiple slight surface marks (hairlines) generating background noise between songs but no jump or skips. Cover shows important signs of age and storage (slice corners worn, name, date, dedication, tears, etc. ...). Generally, this record was one of the favorites among previous owner discotheque , went from hand to hand, had to animate some parties and bears the scars of a busy life.


VG (VERY GOOD)

The record is very worn, has been played a lot, shows important scratches that are creating permanent background noises but do not skip or jump. Still listenable (especially at high volume for big sound). The cover is well worn, torn important corner and edge wear, significant traces of marker pen or ... well, the previous grade but more accentuated.


G (GOOD)

Has been played to the hilt (but still playable on some titles), many scratches, crackles a lot while playing, may have jumps or sticks. The cover is very damaged. This record must be very rare to be proposed on sale !
