...These Nonesuch issues are excellent... really great open, broad, full stereos which have an immaculate sound. The vinyl itself is not the thickest perhaps, but they are noiseless in the interim between tracks, they run smooth and silent, except for the music itself, which is pretty much perfectly presented.
Maybe the covers are a little dated, and I get the feeling this may have been as a concession to popular culture of the time - flower power and all that- which now only makes them seem like bargain basement jobbies... but they are as good as any label I've listened to, and along with the U.S Vox label, represent real value for money, because albums on both labels can be got for ten of our English European pounds or less (sometimes even less than a fiver!).
(I see the Polydor Records Ltd. makers mark on the back cover... which probably explains why they sound so good :)
