In Reply to: RE: More Dutton RCA and CBS/Sony quad remasters posted by Chris from Lafayette on February 21, 2021 at 01:16:54
I have all half-dozen plus Raksin's 'Laura'-and-more album.. The CFS recordings by Wilkinson are VERY natural and attractive; the Raksin (by Wade and Haskell) uses MANY-more mics and sounds not nearly as natural, but all the music is excellent.. I've heard the Stokowski/Beethoven 3 once and it was at least OK; haven't yet heard the Wagner/Bach.
Buy some; then he'll do more. :-)
BTW my goodbuddy LOVES the old R&R SACDs.
Follow Ups:
I have the Dutton issues of the "Captain Blood" and "Citizen Kane" CFS albums and they're excellent!
And that Stokowski Bach/Wagner album which you mention (strange combination of composers!) is great too.
In addition, I tried Michael Dutton's remaster of Rachmaninoff's own performances of his Symphony No. 3 and Isle of the Dead, and Dutton did an outstanding job here too, avoiding that all-too-typical shellac "break up" distortion in the louder passages. I was very happy with this one.
About the only Dutton remaster I was less than impressed with is the Rubinstein/Ormandy Rachmaninoff Second Concerto, but I'm not sure that very much can be done with a master like that one anyway. (I had a similar reaction to the HDTT remaster of this performance.)
at least that I could find.
