See now...

This is why I would never bring a high end system home to "Try it out" ... No, no, no... NO, it can only lead to this kind of foolishness...

Congratulations on your pending acquisition!

You were right Mike!! See what happened? http://www.audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?posts/10765642/

Edgard Varese

"Complete Works Volume 1" (There was never a second one...)

Recorded in New York in May and June, 1950

Black&White cover, pink label, violet vinyl. 1950 EMS 401, "first edition".

Frank's very first record, he purchased it when he was 15. My oldest record. I purchesed it in 2009 at "Julian's Books", New York, via internet for 39 dollars. The only record I'm spinning (about one time a year) although the vinyl is in pretty poor condition - for sentimental reasons. This record is very very rare. Does anybody here have it?

"The composer on the cover looks like a weird scientist." (Frank)

 

[john111/LZ]

No,unfortunately!l wish....all i have of Varese is a Naxos compilation,giving no real insight into the composer.
But i do have lots of Franks material......a genius.

I have this one, a compilation that includes Varese' Poeme Electronique:



I used to have this on on vinyl, but it appears to have gone missing:




Cheers,
