TWO SUBLIME PIECES, RECORDED SHORTLY BEFORE ARGENTA S TRAGIC DEATH AT 44 FROM CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING.
THIS PRESSING, MADE AS SOON AS STEREOPHONIC RECORDING WAS INTRODUCED, ESTABLISHED THE RODRIGO WORK AS THE MOST POPULAR GUITAR CONCERTO OF ALL TIME.SUPERIOR TO ANY AUDIOPHILE REISSUES THAT HAVE APPEARED IN RECENT YEARS WHERE THE BALANCE BETWEEN THE RESPECTIVE SOLO INSTRUMENTS AND THE ORCHESTRA IS NOT AS GOOD AS ON THIS ORIGINAL STEREO VERSION.
EXTREMELY RARE AS A FIRST STEREO PRESSING .
A VERY HARD ITEM TO FIND, ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION.
MATRIX NO.s : ESS-202-2E / ESS-203-3E BOTH FIRST EDITION LABELS ARE CLEAN WITH NO WRITING OR STAINS, JUST A FEW SMALL SPOTS VISIBLE ON THE SIDE 1 LABEL.
LOOK AT THE PICTURES AND YOU CAN GET A GOOD IDEA OF HOW LITTLE PLAY THIS HAS SEEN.LABELS GRADED AS EXCELLENT CLOSE INSPECTION OF THE DISC UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT SHOWS NO MARKS APART FROM A FEW HARD TO SEE HAIRLINES AND A COUPLE OF TINY SUPERFICIAL MARKS.
THE AUDIO IS SUPERB, THE FULL FREQUENCY STEREO SOUND DOES NOT DISAPPOINT.
THERE ARE NO AUDIBLE POPS, CLICKS OR CRACKLE.
JUST THE SLIGHTEST LOW LEVEL BACKGROUND STATIC CAN BE DETECTED IN PLACES.
THIS HAS LITTLE OR NO IMPACT ON THE MUSIC WHICH SOUNDS AS IT SHOULD.
