Description
Great match of two giants! Many collectors don't realize this set was actually recorded by Mercury team when they traveled to London in July, 1961! As a result, it retains the clarity, immediacy, and dynamism that's trademark of Mercury. If you see the US Mercury version (white cover gatefold) at reasonable price next time (sorry I don't have it to offer this time), grab it! It will be a most interesting comparison with the Philips version.
This is a very nice French pressing with the "black core" label used by CIDIS who also pressed for Harmonia Mundi, among others.
Producer/Engineer: Wilma Cozart Fine/Robert C. Fine
Recording location/date: Walthamstaw Hall, London/Jul 24-26, 1961
Record condition: NM-/EX+/EX+/NM- (couple light short marks but plays very well)
Box condition: NM
Booklet condition: NM
Note: I'm a collector, not a dealer. The reason I'm selling is to downsize my collection. Every record I offer was hand-picked based on its merits on music, performance, and sonics (not necessarily in that order!). I will list recording credentials such as producer, engineer, venue, date, etc. as I believe as an educated buyer, these will offer crucial info for an unfamiliar record to make a buying judgement. Hope you'll find this useful!
