Just got this for $1 when I went to Double Decker with Eleazar back a week or two. Had a copy in my hand, but the vinyl looked beat. Twenty minutes later found a cleaner copy and took it. Psyched!!!

Hmmmm...you must of taken that course....."speed listening"....
....or did you just play one song from each recording.... :rofl:

Actually I was listening most of the day while working on things around the house and was just too busy to do posts as I went along so I just recapped the playlist at the end of the day.

But that might not be a bad idea ...Evelyn Wood Speed Listening courses.... Hmmmm. Wonder what we could charge for them (Of course the audiophile version would be 5x the regular price.  :rofl:)

Here's a question for the group - Does anyone know what the BART. and C.H designations mean?

Bart. = Baronet, he inherited his father's Baroncy.

CH =  Order of the Companions of Honour
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_the_Companions_of_Honour

I have to clean my vinyl copy of Beecham's "Messiah", and put it on while I have house to myself, I'm labeling whiteboxes for 12au7 tubes. Big Fun!  :roll:
