Description
You are bidding on one of the Holy Grail of classical music – MICHAEL RABIN MOSAICS with Leon Pommers on piano. No need to extol the sound ,demand , and collectabilty of this extraordinary LP. The last stereo version sold for $1700+ in May of this year.
This is the original first stereo early pressing on Capitol SP-8506 Canadian pressing ( stamper D1/D1 ) .
Cover is VG++ with a small SP8506 written on the top left corner. Other than that, there are no other markings, no seam splits and cover is bright and clean.
Visually the vinyl is a very glossy VG++ with a couple of small scuff marks ( not audible) and a very small manufacturing dimple ( not audible).
Play graded on a high end Koetsu Onyx cartridge,sound for the most part is loud and clean. You will occasionally hear the odd pop and tick ( a little more noticeable on the softer passages) but not obtrusive in preventing you from enjoying this rare LP.
If you are expecting this to have a dead quiet background then please pass up on it and get the digitalized emotionless sterile CD version.
In my experience all vinyl – even those that have never been played ( sealed ) and even today’s reissues all will have some background surface noise.
Buyer pays $25 shipping to the US or $65 overseas by expresspost with a tracking .
I know it sounds expensive but that’s less than my actual shipping cost.
Paypal demands that I have a tracking # to be protected. Without it they will automatically refund a buyer who claims that they never received the LP . Unfortunately there are a few unscrupulous buyers know that and file an" item never received dispute" get a complete refund from paypal if there is no tracking # This has happened in the past and I was out hundreds of dollars. This is paypal's policy , not mine.price rating
