VIVALDI:FOUR CONCERTI FOR VIOLIN,STRINGS AND CEMBALO.

EMI PRESSED COLUMBIA SAX 5264 ISSUED IN 1966 ALTHOUGH RECORDED IN THE USA IN 1963 BY CAPITOL RECORDS WHICH MAY EXPLAIN WHY THE CAPITOL LOGOS WERE USED ON THE DEMONSTRATION/TEST PRESSING LABELS BUT THESE ARE UK EMI FACTORY PRESSED DISCS OF WHICH PROBABLY ONLY A FEW DOZEN COPIES WERE MADE FOR IN-HOUSE TESTING OR FOR THE APPROVAL OF IMPORTANT REVIEWERS OR EXPERTS ON THE GENRE SUCH AS THIS SOURCE, THE LATE PETER ASTON WHO WAS A PROFESSOR,CONDUCTOR,COMPOSER,WRITER AND EXPERT ON EARLY/BAROQUE MUSIC OFTEN BEING CONSULTED BY RECORD COMPANIES FOR INFORMATION AND TO REVIEW/TEST RECORDS WHICH HE DID ON TOP OF THE RANGE EQUIPMENT AND NATURALLY MOST OF HIS RECORDS HAD VERY LITTLE USE AS HE WAS A VERY BUSY MAN HAVING SEEN HIS VAST LIBRARY OF BOOKS,PAPERWORK,TAPES,CDs AND RECORDS!  OUTSTANDING VINYL WITH GLEAMING SURFACES AND NO SURFACE MARKS-HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE! UPGRADER STANDARD-FANTASTIC WARM,RICH,FULL STEREOPHONIC SOUND ON VERY THICK EMI PRESSED VINYL!

TIME FOR A LITTLE ABOUT ME! FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH ME ON EBAY SINCE 2002 AND INDEED ELSEWHERE BEFORE SINCE 1986, WILL PROBABLY KNOW I HAVE BEEN A RESPECTED DEALER,  MUSIC EXPERT AND COLLECTOR FOR MANY YEARS CALLED UPON BY RADIO,TV AND PRICE GUIDES FOR MY ADVICE AND KNOWLEDGE!!! 

MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE ARE IN POOR CONDITION-THIS PAIR OF LPs ARE IN NEAR MINT CONDITION AND THAT IS BEING VERY STRICT!

NO JUMPS!/NO STICKS!/NO NASTY  CLICKS!/NO SWISHES!How many were preserved like this one-??

USED AND NOT SERIOUSLY ABUSED!!!!!!

Just to explain, in the 1960s,the majority of buyers were preferring MONO or were using poor equipment.

Many shops only obtained the stereo records to special order only.

The 1960s stereo equipment was often basic with much heavier tonearms than later lightweight pickups.

The records have been clearly been very well cared for on lightweight  high quality equipment.  

 Vinyl is still the best way to hear CLASSICAL MUSIC and always will be!  

I TEST ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITHOUT FILTERING OR A MONO SWITCH.

I HAVE PLAYED THEM TO CHECK FOR ANY FAULTS.

FAR BETTER THAN MOST AROUND! 

MOST RECORDS ON EBAY ARE IN DIABOLICAL, BAD CONDITIONS ATTEMPTED TO BE  SOLD BY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GRADE OR BOTHER TO ACTUALLY PLAY THEM FOR AN ACURATE DESCRIPTION!

This is A VERY NICE PAIR-EXAMINE YOURS AND IT MAY NOT BE AS GOOD AS YOU THINK!

AT WORSE AND IN THE STRICTNESS OF POTENTIAL BUYERS,THE DISCS ARE IN NEAR MINT CONDITION. FAR BETTER THAN MOST PEOPLES USE OF THE " NEAR MINT"GRADING BUT IT IS DOWN TO MY STRICT GRADING POLICY.  

THE LPs AS USUAL WILL BE REMOVED FROM THE COVER BEFORE SENDING!   

REMEMBER I AM GRADING STRICTLY! PLEASE STUDY ALL OF THE PHOTOS!
