RCA LIVING STEREO DELUXE 1S EDITION BOX SET
New & Sealed Audiophile Vinyl 10 Record Set

Classic Records limited edition Deluxe 1S Edition box set serial number 0244. A set of audiophile grade re-issues of 10 RCA Living Stereo LPs. The sound quality of these Classic Records re-issues is legendary. All 10 LPs are brand new, still in the original sealed outer sleeves. Each bears a serial number label as on the box, showing the number 0244. The record sleeves (exact reproductions of the original RCA sleeves, aside from stating that they were made under license by Classic Records at the bottom of the back) are in flawless (Mint) condition. Being still sealed, new records, the vinyl is presumably in Mint condition. The box for the box set is in very good condition - very minor shelf wear. The set contains the following 10 LPs:

LSC1806 Strauss - Also Sprach Zarathustra

LSC1900 Berlioz - Symphonie Fantastique

LSC1934 Bartok - Concerto for Orchestra

LSC2234 Saint Saens - Concerto #2, Franck - Symphonic Variations

LSC2398 Khachaturian - Masquerade, Kabalevsky - The Comedians

LSC2423 Festival

LSC2456 Lalo - Symphonie Espagnole

LSC2471 Liszt - Hungarian Rhapsody, Enesco - RoumanianRhapsody

LSC2500 Strauss Waltzes

LSC2541 Liszt - Todtentanz, Rachmoninoff Concerto #1

I will also include the original flawed pressing of the Lalo - Symphonie Espagnole which was replaced with the new sealed copy above. Not sure what the flaw was but I'm sure it was minor. This has been opened but is in Mint condition. I will also include a letter from Ying Tan and Michael Hobson , an advertisement of other recordings with a mention of Acoustic Sounds and a sealed cassette with the story of the Living Stereo recordings.
So it will be a total of 11 LP's.
These records have always been in a climate controlled facility from new.
The records will be well packed and shipped insured.
I will be selling many more items including audiophile CD's and LP's, standard CD's and LP's, Hi Fi equipment and assorted items. A lifetime collection. 

It : RCA Living Stereo/Classic Records Deluxe 1S

Numbered Limited Edition (# 0081)

Beautiful and highly collectable box set release from audiophile label, Classic Records. Ten beautiful reissues of the famous RCA "Shaded Dog" Living Stereo titles (See list below). All ten LPs are individually sealed and are in 100% MINT condition. 

The box itself has the Limited Edition Number, #0081, as do all individual albums on the back sleeve. Number 81 out of only 500 pressed!

All records in this box set were mastered by Classic Records at Half Speed from the original source master tapes. An all-analog, tube amplification process was used at every step. Classic Records used a proprietary vinyl that guaranteed virtually no surface noise and sonically superior dynamics.

Classic Records pride themselves for releasing each album with the original artwork, LP labels and any other materials which were included with original pressings.

Box is in mint condition... nice sheen to the lamination, sides are rigid and corners are sharp. Box itself came unsealed, but all records inside are sealed individually and are all in 100% MINT condition. Set comes with all documentation including a thank you letter from Ying Tan and Michael Hobson dated June 8, 1994.

Albums in the box:



1. LSC 1806 - STRAUSS Also Sprach Zarathustra, Fritz Reiner Conducts The Chicago Symphony Orchestra. The legendary 1954 Reiner/CSO performance recorded directly to two track analog by Jack Pfeiffer, who oversaw the Classic transfer of one of his favorite recordings and hailed the Classic reissue as "definitive and spectacular."



2. LSC 1900 - BERLIOZ Symphonie Fantastique. The legendary 1954 performance that was never issued as a Living Stereo. By the time that RCA started issuing stereo LPs in 1960, Munch re-recorded the piece, though many argue that the 1954 performance is favored. This is one of the early Jack Pfeiffer two-track recordings which capture that sense of "being there"that is often elusive. 



3. LSC 1934 - BARTOK Concerto for Orchestra. Fritz Reiner Conducts The Chicago Symphony Orchestra. Reiner, being as close to Bartok as he was, knew this work "inside and out" and committed a performance for the ages in this session. Recorded October 22, 1955 in Orchestra Hall, Chicago. 



4. LSC 2234 - SAINT-SAENS Piano Concerto #2 & FRANCK Symphonic Variations. Alfred Wallenstein Conducting The Symphony Of The Air. Arthur Rubinstein had performed Saint-Saens Piano Concerto No. 2 in G minor, Op. 22 many times throughout his concert career; in fact, this was one of the pieces on the program of his first public concert given in 1900. The style in which he plays it is simply captivating. It's not a serious concerto in the German-school, but rather a light-hearted and somewhat amusing concerto. This is probably the most famous recording of the composition, and it's no wonder why. 



5. LSC 2398 - KABALEVSKY Comedians Suite & KHACHATURIAN Masquerade Suite. The violin is so sweet and full of rosiny texture here. The whole string section is full of Living Stereo magic. The soundstage is wide and deep, the overall sound rich and warm. The midrange is nothing short of magical. This is the kind of Golden Age recording that makes audiophiles lose it. It's one of the few legitimate reasons to take the TAS Super Disc List seriously in the first place. 



6. LSC 2423 FESTIVAL. Fritz Reiner Conducting The Chicago Symphony Orchestra 



7. LSC 2456 LALO Symphonie Espagnole. Henryk Szeryng is at least the equal of the best of the other virtuosi who have recorded this piece, both in style and in effortless technique, and gives an enchanting, as well as breathtaking, performance. But what makes me so sure of this record's superiority is its superb sound. 



8. LSC 2471 RHAPSODIES. Leopold Stokowski conducts Liszt, Enesco & Smetana selections. Stokowski imbues such diverse coloration and rhythmic insistance as to mesmerise on each listening. More than an historical document, these recordings could well become your favorite performances of these works.
