WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF? (DOS 687) ULTRA RARE ORIGINAL BROADWAY CAST ALBUM STARRING UTA HAGEN!!!! ITEM CONDITION: LIKE NEW
In 1963, Columbia Masterworks released this four-LP (long-playing) boxed recording of the original Broadway cast performing the entire play under the direction of Alan Schneider.
The release containes a sixteen-page booklet with photos from the original production, critical essays by Harold Clurman and Walter Kerr, cast and crew biographies, and a short article by Goddard Lieberson on the task of recording the play. The introduction is by Edward Albee, in which he relates, "I cannot conceive of anyone wanting to buy [this] massive album; but...every playwright wants as much permanence for his work as he can get."
This recording was issued in both stereo (DOS 687) and monaural (DOL 287) formats. It is out-of-print and was never re-released in other formats and is highly prized among collectors, as plays with such adult themes were never recorded for the general public before.
This pre-owned Vinyl box set is in amazing condition. There is some minimal wear and tear to the box itself, but the inside is in perfect condition. There are no scratches of any kind on the records and the liner notes looks as if they were never opened. Please email me with any questions!price rating
