Vinyl Asylum

Oistrakh's and Richter's 1969 live recording of Shostie's Violin Sonata is the best you're ever going to get! The cover is stunning as well. I'm just finihsing up Stephen Walsh's 2 volume bio of Stravinsky and Liz Wilson's bio on Shostakovich is next. Just was led to a great site "Shostakovichiana". It has just about anything you can ask for....and more.....even a positive review on Wilson's book!

I"m FINALLY picking up my new TT today.......YEAHHHH!!!

  As usual i'm "green" with envy. I just scored the symphonies nr. 6&11/Concertgebouw Orch./Haitink on Decca. A digital 80s recording but pretty good nonetheless.

    It's UK EMI HQS 1369, although it has the typical Melodiya/EMI record label......only in purple instead of red.
