Vinyl Asylum

Tough call, Kubelik's Audite 1st is infinitely more interesting and better recorded, but...

some wobbly horns in the very delicate, whispery opening, and the orchestra is a touch tired by the big finale. Still, what Kubelik unearths in the 2nd - 4th mov'ts!

Walter's on Columbia is a personal favorite, and nice bass drum sound too!

I was wondering about Kubelik's later Audite release.... - kuma 23:10:16 11/30/15 (2)
since the reissue is available in vinyl.
Do you have Walter's earlier mono release recorded live in Carnegie in 1954?
The sound of course is primitive, but much livelier than the later stereo set. The finale's fireworks is something else. Still, the stereo version is plenty powerful.

  I had the early Walter, but scratched. Made a local thrift dump and low and behold, it shows up on Ebay as NM. Sold for a nice amount too!
  - That's why I have a $10 limit for ebay LPs. ;-) nt - rbolaw 16:27:01 12/02/15 (0)
