WHY ARE RIVERSIDE STEREOPHONIC RECORDS SPECIAL? AS MENTIONED ON SOME RIVERSIDE BACK LINER NOTES:Riverside stereo recording is designed to achieve a true spacial effect through proper microphone placement. Avoiding the so called "ping pong" effect (an extreme left-right division by which sound is heard through the two speakers only, with a silent "hole" between them), our aim is to retain the natural sounds as you would hear them originally. This recording method, plus the finest of re-recording techniques, enables us to provide you with a truly three dimensional experience in sound, in which a "phantom" speaker seems to exist between your actual two speakers, providing a continuous arc of sound.
Grading: Media - VG - Some very fine surface marks - Track 3 on Side 1 has a visual surface scratch of about 3/4 of an inch. It is not a deep groove scratch. This does play thru fine with only a small amount of noise that does not detract from the listening enjoyment of the record. Without this line the album would be VG+ - NM.
Sleeve - VG+ No splits. Only some edge wear, about 1 inch of the spine has some tearing of the paper. Some faint marks on the back. Very very nice considering the age.
