The idea of having to clean off chipmunk crap from LPs....

... does not hold too much appeal, so - if you don't mind - I'll pass...

There are some albums buried away in those cartons that I'd very much like to hear again - particularly as the last time many of them were actually played was back in the early 1990's on a system that comprised a Thorens TD-160C + AT410 feeding a B&O Beolab 5000 integrated amp which, in turn, drove a pair of Kef Cadenza's...

These include albums by Renaissance, Raphael Ravenscroft (of Baker Street sax fame), Paul Desmond, and a variety of classical performances I've not been able to locate on CD:

- Sibelius' "Finlandia" with PO/Ormandy + Mormon Tabernacle Choir
- Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto #1 with Sviatoslav Richter & BPO/von Karajan
- Beethoven Violin Concerto with Michel Schwalbe & BPO/von Karajan

to mention a few...

I am looking forward to hearing how they sound on the current set-up (which is a wee bit different to that original system).
