New for October

New from iTunes

Many music lovers miss the sound from vinyl pressings. Many others have yet to discover how pleasant the sound can be. Most of our albums are mastered from vinyl LP pressings and earlier recordings (before 1953) from 78 rpm discs. It is our ability to recreate, in the digital age, the sound from the disc era that many of our customers find most enjoyable.

Unlike modern digital recordings tracks in our albums do contain some distortion, and the occasional surface noises, but for many listeners these "defects" are soon forgotten.

What the critics say

Here are some recent reviews by Brian Wilson at Music Web International

"Al Bowlly fans will need no invitation to purchase, while others might profitably might make his acquaintance in these first class transfers, with almost no surface noise apart from the odd rogue patch, yet as full and undistorted a sound as could be expected for recordings dating from the 1930s.  " "The music of Ketèlbey, once so popular, has largely fallen out of favour apart from walk-on parts on light music albums... the music is often sentimental but we need a bit of sentimentality sometimes and these recordings with Robert Sharples at the helm of the New Symphony Orchestra are just the ticket. Recorded around 1959 in good stereo and very well transferred... The music by the other composers makes an attractive and varied half-hour-long bonus. "
