From a cache of Rare Mercury Living Stereo Promo disks amassed by a late classical collector with a penchant for such jewels. Frederick Fennell, leading various ensembles, was a stalwart performer for Mercury specializing in Romantic Era and more modern masterworks for wind band, chamber orchestra, and full symphony. Fennell especially excelled in the lighter classical compositions rendered here in lilting, inspired interpretations. Sample that super-fine orchestral artistry with a Very Rare Mercury Living Presence Stereo Promo album never commercialized. Superlative Mercury Living Presence Stereo acoustics for this era far exceed in sonic quality all other early Stereo disks. You hear that here from the very first groove! Coveted Promo exemplar on offer here is a now Quite Rare, First Edition and with early Pressings of the Original circa 1965 Mercury Living Presence Stereo album. Disk on offer sports original exterior jacket and the original inner Mercury paper sleeve. London "Pops" Orchestra here comprised many first-chair players from other noted metropolitan ensembles. They give wonderfully colorful and deft readings of great symphonic waltzes and dance tunes for the ages. Disk carefully Play Graded. Disk Near-Mint in quality with super-quiet disk surfaces, richly atmospheric symphonic acoustic, plunging deep bass lines, gorgeous treble, and just beaming woodwinds. Disk Deadwax hand-engraved RFR-1 (Side 1) and RFR-3 (Side 2) indicating First Edition and First and Early Pressings of the full-bore Mercury Living Presence Stereo on heavy-gauge vinyl of the period. Disk carries the typical Gold Promo spindle labels marked For Broadcast Only. Not for Sale. Under bright light, Album appears near-flawless. Just some very light sleeve scuffs inaudible on playback. Jacket here is also easily Near-Mint, possessing still very high-gloss front and rear covers. All Seams Intact. Not a Cut-Out. Just Pristine. Fully intact rear face and all seams sharp, intact, and rigid. Original Mercury inner paper record sleeve of the era. (See Photo.)
