A CHOICE COPY

Born of gypsy origin near Toledo, Ramon Montoya (1880-1949) frequented the Cafe de la Marina as a child, endlessly watching the fingers of the great fin de siecle guitarists. He was the cousin of Carlos Montoya, who pursued a resounding American career; Ramon never learned how to read music himself, but created his own technique, using his creative genius to synthesize all that he saw and heard. He was quickly sought out by the greatest Flamenca artists, such as Antonio Chacon (who considered Montoya to be the finest accompanist), Nina de los peines, Argentinita and Joselito, but for a long time he ignored international agents and the major concert halls, where he would have been a smash. Montoya gave guitar lessons to Marius de Zayas, whose son Rodrigo de Zayas become a great and well known Seville musicologist, a specialist in classical Andalusian music. In 1936, Marias de Zayas suggested that Montoya, who had only recorded accompaniment, record his first solo album in Paris: “Arte clasico flamenco”. a triumphal concert was given at the Casino in Biarritz on September 7, 1936. The man who agreed to produce the records underwritten by de Zayas – reissued here – was Levy-Alvarez, head of “La Boite Musique” in Paris.

A Quick NOTE ON GRADING AND SHIPPING:

As you can see from my feedback, I try hard to earn your POSITIVE FEEDBACK and FIVE STAR RATINGS.

If for any reason your transaction was NOT SATISFACTORY, pls contact me and I will work something out with you. YOU WILL NEVER HAVE A REASON TO GIVE ME A NEGATIVE RATING or a LOW STAR RATING.

Quick note on grading:

The Grade (Excellent to Poor, I don't give Mint) refers to the WEAR of the record. Any other defects are stated separately

When I listen to a record, I may also give it an aural grade (again E to P), and make a SUBJECTIVE judgment of the pressing quality for hiss and surface noise.
"SUPERQUIET" is basically noiseless, like a vinyl pressing.
"VERY QUIET" is an exceptionally quiet record for a given pressing.
"Quiet" is a record that is a great example without undue noise for a give pressing.

These judgments are SUBJECTIVE and will depend one the styli, phonograph etc. you use on your own equipment.

Multiple item shipping: I am happy to combine items for shipment in one parcel.

If you win multiple items, pls send me an INVOICE REQUEST to calculate the correct postage. Ebay check out will not give you the correct multiple item discount!

Records will be packed safely between corrugated cardboard in a sturdy box with plenty of padding for safe shipment.

Shipment is usually Media Mail, unless you request another service. Shipping is at your risk, I will be happy to insure items at your cost.

I charge actual postage plus a small fee for packing materials

As always, I guarantee your satisfaction. If you don't like the item, just return it, and I will refund the full purchase price.

If you are in the San Francisco area, I encourage pick-up in person.

US Domestic Shipping:

Here is a guideline for US Media Mail Shipping:

Prices below are for regular 78 rpm records. Up to about 5 records, I will ship Edison Discs for the same rates. Albums from Album Sets count as 1 record. Above that and for international shipments, it will be actual weight plus a small packing charge (1-3$ depending on size of shipment)

1 record: 4.75 – 5.50$

2 records: 6.50$

5 records: 8.00$

10 records: 12.00$

MANY MORE RECORDS: Don't worry. I safely ship 40 - 50 pounds of records double boxed in moving boxes, and even then Media Mail will probably not exceed 35$.

Please send me a message if you would like to get an estimate for you shipping rates!

I am very happy to ship records worldwide.

Please use the EBAY shipping cost only as a guideline. My actual charges are usually lower

One record usually ships for 25$ for 10" 25-35$ for most 12" records (Less for Canada).

 As always, I would appreciate any suggestions and corrections from you, pls contact me with any question.

Thank you very much, and have fun finding some great records !!!
