RCA's "golden age" was more like a "golden minute" - in a scant period, roughly from 1958 to 1963, the beginning of the stereo era - pure vacuum tube amplification helped produce recordings demonstrating unparalleled fidelity and warmth, lifelike presence and midband illumination.
Stunning performances of Heifetz showpieces with Sir Malcolm Sargent and the New Symphony Orchestra of London. Recorded in May of 1962 by Kenneth Wilkinson and the Decca Recording team at Walthamstow Hall. This is a must have for all audiophiles! The original 2-track session tapes were used in the mastering of these LP and SACD reissues.
Packaged in the original tip-on jacket facsimiles that precisely duplicate the original cover art, including the "Living Stereo" logo, LSC numbers and "Shaded Dog" label. These new versions are clearer than the originals and warmer and richer than past reissues! Hybrid Stereo SACD playable on all CD players.
