Description
NEVER HEARD JANOS STARKER PLAY? NOW YOU CAN REALLY HEAR HIM AT HIS MEMORABLE BEST!
THIS GOLD LABEL VERSION IS HEADS AND SHOULDERS ABOVE THE $100 RED LABEL REGULAR VERSION.
YOU CAN HEAR EVERY BOW STROKE AND ALMOST PERCEIVE THE BITE OF THE HORSEHAIR HITTING THE GUT/METAL OF THE STRINGS.
STARKER IS IN FRONT OF YOU WITH HIS MAGNIFICENT INSTRUMENT.
YOU CAN HEAR EVERY NOTE, PERCEIVE EVERY SHIFT IN HIS LEFT HAND AS IT EMPHASIZES THEMES OR VARIATIONS. SENSE EVERY BOW STROKE.
THIS IS ONE OF THE HOLY GRAIL OF THE MERCURY CATALOG AND IT SOUNDS ALMOST AS IF YOU ARE THERE. THERE'S PERCEPTIBLE SPACE AND DIMENSION, GRUFFNESS OF THE BOW, SPARKLING NOTES ROLLING OFF THE CELLO.
IF YOU MISS THIS ONE, YOU ARE PROBABLY GOING TO BE KICKING YOURSELF.
EXTREMELY RARE COPY OF GOLD LABEL MERCURY SR3-9016 BACH SUITES. NOT VERY MANY WERE PRODUCED. THEY DON'T TURN UP VERY OFTEN.
RECORDS SEEM TO BE UNPLAYED -- HONESTLY. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE SCUFFS OR SCRATCHES EVEN UNDER BRIGHT LIGHTS. I HAVE NOT PLAYED THIS SINCE I PURCHASED IT MANY YEARS AGO (FROM A CLASSICAL RECORD) BECAUSE I HAVE A MASTER TAPE OF THIS PERFORMANCE. MOST LIKELY PURCHASED FROM A CLASSICAL RECORD IN NEW YORK CITY.
STAMPERS SHOW THIS IS AN EARLY STAMPING: RFR 2/1/2/2/2/2
ALL 3 DISCS COME IN GOLD LABEL MERCURY SLEEVES -- AN UNUSUAL TOUCH!
BOX IS LABELLED ON INSIDE COVER: "PROMOTIONAL COPY -- NOT FOR SALE." RIGHT TOP AND BOTTOM CORNERS OF BOX HAVE BEEN REPAIRED. THERE IS WRITING INSIDE THE BOX COVER "RFR-1 GOLD PROMO MINT."
BOOKLET IS MINT CONDITION AND INCLUDED.
ONLY A STARKER SIGNATURE WOULD MAKE THIS MORE UNIQUE!
