 Nice looking thing.

I've a stack of Naxos classical CDs to add here, when I get round to it.

Well here we are folks...

...from what I can see, the first of the highly sought after White/Gold HMV classical labels on site. These can fetch the big prices depending on Orchestra/Solosist/Conductor Etc. But have to be tip top mint to hit the big numbers (Pretty much all or nothing with classical collectors I'm afraid).

My particular copy has a couple of scratches each side, which causes a pop on side 1, and two on the other, but believe what they say, these sound incredible!

This particular work by Dvorak has some sinuous to sensuous Cello and Flute interplay, which occasionally erupts with great thunder storm like sea swells of orchestral sweeps, which rise up and plummet back down with equal ease...a fantastic example of what these discs are all about: POWER (extreme - organic - HEAVY POWER), and pin drop detail and clarity.

Sounds like it was recorded yesterday, with modern equipment too, in terms of no ambient noise at all in the background, or in the room they recorded making it to the disc.

The Matrices are easy to understand on classical discs too, mine have:

2YEA 103 - 8
2YEA 104 - 9

(So just plate number after matrix).

Get digging... there's tons of classical stuff just lying around in the charity shops which may have a few of these in there.... and you might well enjoy the sonic experience they offer (A nice change from pop n rock occasionally doesn't go amiss, and means you might always have something else to dig for if the other stuff dries up).

Salutations!

(I listened to this again yesterday, and recorded it.... here is the Third Movement, which I added to clyp, so you can hear what one of these discs sounds like

(Probably needs more of a clean!))
