MUSIC NOTE : ------------------------

They Laughed When I Sat Down At The Turntable .

And Who Could Blame Them ?  We Were In The Midst Of Enjoying All The European Pressings Being Imported Into My Hi-Fi Room, And So Every Audiophile On Hand Had Decca Head Series On Their Minds, EMIs, The Best Lyritas .

So, When I Took Out My Economy Label Turnabout, Of Donald Who, Playing With What Orchestra, They Simply Laughed .

Then I Placed The Stylus Down .

There Are Moments In Audiophilia To Be Cherished, I Tell You .  For Me, This Was One, As There Wasn't A Jaw In The Room That Didn't Drop Mercilessly At The Launch Of SYMPHONIC DANCES .  Fact Is, Some In Attendance Needed A Bib .  (The Recording Is That Good .)

But This Isn’t That Turnabout Original . In Fact, It Is A Very Rare Audiophile Pressing, Produced By Athena, Of The Very Same Musical Enterprise, Only With Every Care Taken To Capture Every Last Nuance Of What Was On The Original Master Tape . The End Result, I Tell You, Is Astonishing .

As Good As Records Get, This Is Indeed The Famous Athena . (Note, If You Are A TAS Fan, The List Has The Wrong Catalog Number For This Audiophile Edition . It Is 10001, Not 1001 .)

A Truly Breathtaking Addition To Any Vinyl Library .
