Ken-

What did you think of the Four Seasons? 

Osawa is one of my favorite conductors.  His pace is precise with excellent dynamics, big, but not bombastic.

Haydn: Surprise Symphony No. 94, Clock Symphony No. 101 - Monteux/Vienna Philharmonic



I was very disappointed with this LP. Very nice music, decent SQ, but there were so many clicks & pops that the album was unlistenable. On a more dynamic piece of music the clicks might have gotten "lost in the sauce", but both pieces on this album are quiet ones to the noise just gets right in your face.

Visually it does not look like it  is in bad shape, but once it hits the TT, pop city. Luckily it is a crack house disc so I didn't put out a lot on money for it. I just goes to show you that you can look at an LP all you want, but nothing replaces a play grading.
