AN ORIGINAL EARLY 1950s (APPROX 1952) UK PRESSED NIXA"GOLD PRINT"/GROOVED LABELS MONO LP IN EXCELLENT CONDITION:WLP 5010 WITH  A COVER WHICH IS AMAZINGLY CLEAN AND BRIGHT WITH JUST A FEW EDGE CREASES.

PETER RYBAR (VIOLIN) 

with THE VIENNA SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA

conducted by HENRY SWOBODA 

KARL GOLDMARK:"VIOLIN CONCERTO" IN A. 

THIS EARLY MONO RECORDING OF THIS BEAUTIFUL AND SOMEWHAT OVERLOOKED WORK WAS MADE IN AMERICA BY THE WESTMINTER LABEL,ISSUED THERE IN 1950 AND ALTHOUGH CAN BE FOUND AS AN AMERICAN PRESSING,THIS FIRST BRITISH EDITION FROM ABOUT 1952 IS EXTREMELY RARE AND OF BETTER PRESSING QUALITY!

I HAVE NEVER FOUND A COPY BEFORE AND NOT ONLY THAT, IT HAS TO BE ONE OF THE VERY FIRST OFF THE STAMPERS AS IT HAS A RUBBER STAMPED WORDING"REVIEWCOPY-NOT FOR SALE"ON EACH LABEL-PLEASE SEE THE PHOTO!   

THERE IS HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE AND THE SURFACES ARE VERY CLEAN WITH BRIGHT LABELS AND VERY THICK,FLAT VINYL!

IN THE EARLY 1950s,MANY CLASSICAL MUSIC FANS WHO WERE  BUYING MONO LPs WERE USING HEAVY EQUIPMENT AND BEFORE THE MID 1950s HARDLY ANYONE HAD THE EQUIPMENT TO PLAY LPs ANYWAY!

I WOULD ESTIMATE THAT LESS THAN A DOZEN COPIES SURVIVE AS GOOD AS THIS COPY WHICH I SUSPECT HAS ONLY HAD A HANDFUL OF PLAYS AS THERE IS NO SPINDLE WEAR OR EVEN THE SLIGHTEST DISTORTION!

JUST A FEW ULTRA FAINT SURFACE MARKS AND JUST THE ODD LIGHT"POP"HERE AND THERE.

NO NASTY LOUD CLICKS,STICKS,JUMPS OR CONSTANT SURFACE SWISHES-AMAZING FOR IT'S AGE WHICH IS ALMOST 60 YEARS OLD!!!! 

MANY COPIES WERE OFTEN PLAYED ON POOR EQUIPMENT,RUINING THE DELICATE GROOVES FOREVER!!!!!

VERY FEW SURVIVE,NEARLY 60 YEARS LATER!!

THE FIRST UK COPY TO BE SEEN ON EBAY OR ANYWHERE IN MONTHS,PROBABLY YEARS FROM A RELIABLE SELLER AND COLLECTOR!  

AN LP THAT HAS ALWAYS BEEN RARE IN IN EXCELLENT CONDITION BUT ARE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND AS GOOD AS THIS EXAMPLE!

THE MAJORITY WERE PLAYED ON RADIOGRAMS,PORTABLE PLAYERS AND EVEN THE MOST CAREFUL BUYERS WOULD HAVE PLAYED THEM DOZENS OF TIMES!.  

BEAUTIFUL WARM MONO MIXES-SOUNDED FABULOUS ON HEADPHONES WHICH IS HOW I DETECT ANY OF EVEN THE SLIGHTEST FAULTS! 

NO HORRIBLE"DISTORTION FIZZ"!

I LISTEN WITH THE TREBLE ON TO HEAR SUCH POTENTIAL GROOVE DAMAGE!!!  

IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN UPGRADER/ULTIMATE COPY-THIS COULD BE THE DEAL FOR YOU!

IT IS TIME FOR ANOTHER DELIGHT FROM ONE OF THE UKs LEADING RECORD  EXPERTS/DEALERS.

THE ALL ROUND VINYL WARMTH IS MAGICAL AND ALTHOUGH MOST PREFER STEREO SOUND FOR CLASSICAL MUSIC,THE NATURAL DEPTH OF THE PRESSINGS OF THIS TIME IS SO GOOD,THAT YOU MAY BE SURPRISED AT THE RANGE OF FREQUENCIES AND OF COURSE A LOT OF THE EARLY STEREO RECORDINGS OF THE 1950s HAD SEVERE SPLIT"GIMMICK"PING/PONG EFFECTS TO"SHOW OFF"THE LEFT AND RIGHT SPEAKERS!

DETAILED SLEEVE NOTES ON THE BACK OF THE COVER!

THE QUALITY OF THE FRONT ALONE IS VIBRANT AND OF COURSE SO CLEAN THAT DEFIES THE AGE OF THE ISSUE!

********************************************************** 

FROM A RECENTLY PURCHASED COLLECTION OF MAINLY TOP QUALITY LPs OWNED FROM NEW BY A VERY CAREFUL COLLECTOR!

NOT EVEN ANY CLEANING WAS NECESSARY! AMAZING!!! 

A CLASSICAL LPs COLLECTORS DREAM-PLEASE READ ON FOR IN DEPTH DETAILS!!

I HAVE NOT FOUND SUCH BREATHTAKING QUALITY FOR LPs OF THIS VINTAGE FOR QUITE SOMETIME.THEY ARE SIMPLY NOT TURNING UP AS FREQUENTLY AS THEY DID,EVEN FIVE YEARS AGO.MOST HAVE NOW LEFT THE UK FOR THE COLLECTIONS OF JAPAN,AMERICA AND THE FAR EAST NEVER TO RETURN TO THE SELLING MARKET.

THIS MAY BE YOUR LAST CHANCE TO GET SUCH A MUSICALLY BRILLIANT LP!

NO CLEANING WAS NEEDED,THE SURFACES GLEAM,NO FINGERPRINTS,PATCHES OR BAD STORAGE ISSUES,NO WARPING,NO SCUFFS,NO SCRATCHES,NO FADING etc.

PLEASE LOOK AT THE PHOTO OF THE BRIGHTNESS AND SHARPNESS OF THE LABELS AND THE COVER!

DON'T FORGET JUST HOW EXPENSIVE "FULL PRICED" CLASSICAL LPs WERE FOR THE AVERAGE FAN OF THE 1950s, USUALLY A CAREFULLY CONSIDERED PURCHASE OVER WEEKS AND EVEN MONTHS,WHICH EXPLAINS WHY SO FEW TURN UP.

THOSE THAT DID BUY THEM WERE OFTEN SCARED OF HAVING THEM STOLEN OR BORROWED WITHOUT RETURN AND WOULD WRITE NAMES ON THE COVER-JUST COMPARE WITH ANY OTHER SIMILAR LPs ON EBAY.THE MAJORITY HAVE WRITING,SELLOTAPE REPAIR OR WORSE STILL DRAWINGS AND DOODLES ADDED.

THIS IS ABOUT THE BEST COPY I HAVE SEEN IN YEARS AND YEARS.

CHECK OUT YOUR COPY IF YOU HAVE ONE-CAN YOU REALLY PUT UP WITH THE ONE YOU HAVE AND WILL YOU REGRET THIS UPGRADE POSSIBILITY LATER?

IF NOTHING ELSE THIS IS A FANTASTIC INVESTMENT!

THE PREVIOUS OWNER WAS A HI-FI BUFF! 

THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH ME ON EBAY SINCE 2002 AND INDEED ELSEWHERE BEFORE SINCE 1986, WILL PROBABLY KNOW I HAVE BEEN A RESPECTED  MUSIC EXPERT AND COLLECTOR FOR MANY YEARS CALLED UPON BY RADIO,TV AND PRICE GUIDES FOR MY ADVICE AND KNOWLEDGE.

WHILST I AM IN THE BUSINESS TO SELL, I CARE DEEPLY ABOUT THE ITEMS I AM SELLING.

IN A COMPETITIVE MARKET SUCH AS EBAY, THIS IS GETTING RARE SO YOU CAN BID WITH COMPLETE CONFIDENCE!

A VERY NICE THICK VINYL PRESSING!  

MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE ARE IN POOR CONDITION-THIS ONE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE WHATSOEVER ,EVEN AT HIGH VOLUME WITH THE TREBLE FULL ON TO"CATCH"ANY GROOVE WEAR AND THAT IS BEING STRICT! 

NO STICKS!/NO JUMPS!/NO CLICKS!/NO SWISHES!/NO DISTORTION!

AN LP THAT HAVE BEEN PLAYED ONLY A HANDFUL OF TIMES,HAVING SPOKEN AT LENGTH TO THE PREVIOUS OWNER's DAUGHTER,SELLING DUE TO HER FATHER'S PASSING.

Just how many were preserved like this one FROM A CAREFUL COLLECTOR??!!!!!!  

The MONO mixes are Superb and full of bass, with a natural warmth from those days OF THE EARLY 1950s!

In THOSE DAYS,many were using terrible old and heavy equipment and using worn styli or nasty autochangers that would scuff the discs forever in seconds at the time not aware that years later even the slightest damage would be evident on more sophisticated audio.

The 1950s equipment was quite often a bit basic and it was suggested to play LPs at between 5 and 8 grammes, which of course after a few plays would produce on later plays that nasty"film of fizzy distortion"so often IGNORED by sellers and in MY LISTENING GRADING is ALWAYS LISTENED OUT FOR WITH THE TREBLE FULL ON AND PLAYED TO ENSURE THE BEST AND MOST ACURATE GRADING!!!! 

 To find immaculate copies all these years later is getting almost impossible!FACT!

THEY ARE SIMPLY DRYING UP! 

These mixes are far punchier but are rather flat on the CDs that have come out!

Vinyl is still the best way to hear this music and always will be!  

GREAT WIDE RANGE SOUND WITH GREAT BASS!

I TEST ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITHOUT FILTERING OR A MONO SWITCH.

There is NO spindle wear.

ALSO INCLUDED IS THE ORIGINAL INNER SLEEVE!  

Look elsewhere on ebay and you MIGHT see other copies-Look closer and you will find they are often reissues,inferior USA issues or lower grade copies with all manner of faults.

MOST RECORDS ON EBAY ARE IN DIABOLICAL, BAD CONDITIONS ATTEMPTED TO BE  SOLD BY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GRADE OR BOTHER TO ACTUALLY PLAY THEM FOR AN ACURATE DESCRIPTION!

This is A POSSIBLE UPGRADER COPY-EXAMINE YOURS-IT MAY NOT BE AS GOOD AS YOU THINK!

THE LP ITSELF AS USUAL WILL BE REMOVED FROM THE COVER BEFORE SENDING!   

REMEMBER I AM GRADING STRICTLY! PLEASE STUDY THE PHOTO! 

As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!

Realistic  £25 START- BUY IT NOW OFFERS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED!

HARDLY ANY  LPs OF THIS VINTAGE SELL FOR LESS AND I CANNOT STRESS ENOUGH HOW GOOD IT IS.
