Victoria's Secret: Winterscapes



A collection of orignal winter themed compositions performed by the London Symphony Orchestra.

For those of you that don't know Victoria's Secret (yes tht Victoria's Secret  aa ) puts out a line of very nice sounding CDs. Most of the classical ones feature the London Symphony Orchestra, of which VS is a Diamond Patron. This particualr disc, in addition to being a nice sounding collection(bith musically and in terms of SQ), is a 24K gold CD pressing. Not many people realize what these Victoria's secret CDs are and as a result they can usually be found at extremely cheap prices through the usual used CD sources.

Additionally, shopping for new copies of the Victoria's Secret CDs provides two distinct advantages:

1) it gives you the opprotunity to wander through the store by yourself   :drool: - "Hey, I'm shoping for CDs." and

2) it gives you something to do while your wife is looking through the store for hours.  :duh

This CD makes me miss my big speakers. Dramatic modern symphonic poems of similar transcendental theme.
