Description

RODZINSKI / R.P.O. / FALLA / ALBENIZ / GRANADOS - " MUSIC OF SPANISH MASTERS ", His Master's Voice/EMI Records Ltd. (ASD 281) Stereo, 1959.

Very rare, original first issue, English stereo LP.

The off-white and gold label design and the front laminated, flip-back sleeve distinguish this earliest issue/pressing.

Professionally cleaned on my Moth record cleaning machine (the original inner has been retained for for the auction - see photo)


CONDITION:

VINYL = EXCELLENT CONDITION (No proper scratches, no excessive surface noise or wear, no groove damage or distortion, etc. Very clean labels with only the lightest of spindle trails. This record has clearly only ever had very light use and been very well cared for throughout it's lifetime. Under a bright grading lamp there are a couple of light paper scuffs and minute, purely cosmetic visual imperfections - naturally these do not sound on playback. In fact, this record plays beautifully - strong, clear, free from unwanted interuptions and the music is as vibrant as ever. Being ultra critical, I heard the odd slight soft background crackle in the silent sections and run-in... but we're talking miniscule imperfections in the original pressing rather than wear or damage!)

FWIW unless the record appears genuinely unused, EX is the highest grading I award used classical LPs. I stand by EX as the accurate grading for this LP too, it's not an overgrading... I just don't want to be judged alongside sellers using terms like "Mint with the few light marks you expect to find on an old LP" or sellers who only grade visually and claim to not be able to play the records they are selling!!!

This LP was tested for sale on my Linn Sondek LP-12 record player - this is generally a very critical test and fit for purpose, but please take into account that I cannot guarantee exactly how this record will sound on every bidder's own hifi)

SLEEVE = EXCELLENT (No rips, tears, big creases, seam splits or defacing. Still in lovely shape, really clean with just the very lightest signs of wear to a couple of the edges and corners. Also, the back is no doubt a bit more off-white than it once was. But overall, like the vinyl, a good honest well cared for secondhand LP - see photos for more info)


NOTE: before bidding, please take the time to carefully read my condition descriptions and then place your max bids accordingly. If you do have any additional queries, please try to ask me any questions well before the end of the auction and I will endeavour to answer/help out.


This LP will be well packed and posted via a Signed-For service.
