What a pristine sound! I love this piece and you did a marvelous restoration. Thank you!
Yes indeed! It was one of my reference discs back in the day and I LOVE the original chamber version.
I am looking forward to your restoration of the other side of this disc, Ives Three Places in New England.@@GlensAudioRestoration
I used to have the record thank you for putting this out. I hope you'll do the Charles Ives as well.
Sure will! I almost didn't do this disc as it was an early digital, I assume Soundstream, later released on a Pro Arte CD although I never bought one. This was one of my reference LPs back in the day so I have a real fondness for it. I was surprised to see that no one had uploaded it to the 'Tube here although the Davies St. Lukes performance is here. I find the St. Paul a better performance.
@@GlensAudioRestoration it was actually done on a wire wrapped prototype of the 3M Digital Audio Mastering system. a handful of direct to digital recordings were made at Sound 80 studio in Minneapolis on this in the late 1970's (3M is also in the Twin Cities in Maplewood). Other than the SPCO offering, the first Flim & The BB's album and another, Spaces, by Sound 80 owner and pianist Herb Pilhofer were recorded on this.
@@petehelme7714 Many thanks for the information although I am not sure what "wire wrapped" is referring to. The Wiki on Digital Audio Tape says the prototype 3M system was installed in Sound 80 in 1978, the year of this recording, and this was the first digital recording to win a Grammy. It was well deserved.
