Readers Digest RDA29A The Romantic Rachmaninoff/Wild/Horenstein, TAS list, 4LP

$

182

THE best complete Rachmaninov piano concertos, period! You may find other versions marginally better in some aspect of performance or sound, but as a whole, this set is hard to beat and deserves in every music lover's collection. Only that it's so rare nowadays! One word of caution: there are mono sets with the same title and listing number. If you see it somewhere else, you MUST ask for a photo of the label! And don't accept general grading of "good shape", as many owners of Reader's Digest sets don't know how to grade collectible records, let alone what "stamper number" means! Trust me, I'm speaking from painful experience! This early set has mostly 1S stampers and even comes with original flyer and warranty.

Record condition: NM/NM/EX-/EX/NM-/NM-/NM/NM (looks like only concerto #2 gets regular playing from previous owner and receives some light fingernail scuffs and short hairlines but still plays well)

Cover condition: NM-

Stampers: 1S/1S/1S/5S/1S/2S/1S/1S

Note: I'm a collector, not a dealer. The reason I'm selling is to downsize my collection. Every record I offer was hand-picked based on its merits on music, performance, and sonics (not necessarily in that order!). I will list recording credentials such as producer, engineer, venue, date, etc. as I believe as an educated buyer, these will offer crucial info for an unfamiliar record to make a buying judgement. Hope you'll find this useful!
