You’ll find INCREDIBLE Shootout Winning Triple Plus (A+++) sound or close to it throughout this early London pressing of Holst’s phenomenal magnum opus
These sides are clear, full-bodied and present, with plenty of space around the players, the unmistakable sonic hallmark of the properly mastered, properly pressed vintage analog LP
Vibrant orchestrations, top quality sound and scratch-free surfaces combine for an astounding listening experience of this TAS-approved recording
Here you will find some of the biggest, boldest sound for the work that we’ve ever heard
Boasting two huge, powerful and tubey Double Plus (A++) sides or BETTER, we guarantee you’ve never heard Mahler’s Symphony No. 1 sound remotely as good as it does on this vintage London pressing
The sonic are big and rich, lively and open, with an abundance of depth and huge climaxes that hold together
Everything that we listen for in a great classical recording can be heard on this copy – it’s immediate, dynamic, very low distortion, spacious, and alive
We had one original unboxed Decca, and what a disappointment it was after hearing so many great sounding London pressings
Mastered by Stan Goodall, it was not remotely competitive on either side with the work of Harry Fisher
There are about 150 orchestral recordings we think offer the best performances with the highest quality sound. This record is certainly deserving of a place on that list.
