This is a Mint or "Like-New" copy of this rare and hard to find, top quality Deutsche Grammophon (DG) CD. The sublime music contained here was recorded digitally- in other words, this CD has outstanding music quality!

CONDITION

Critically, as stated, this CD is in superb, “like” new condition! In fact, although well over 30 years old and being sold and priced as used, this particular CD for all practical purposes is “new.” Indeed, the disc appears pristine— it appears to have never been played or at most, it has been played minimally and handled w/ extreme care. Importantly, the disc’s playing surface appears to have NO overt scratches, scuffs, stains or any other significant, notable or even noticeable surface marks on it! To the extent any marks exist, they would be at most extremely small, barely noticeable and surely insignificant for any practical purposes- after all, I did not see any marks on the disc when checking its condition. In sum, the disc truly is like new.

The CD comes with original multi-page booklet and case, both of which are in fine condition w/ no significant flaws.

-The booklet has no rips, stains, writing, or other material marks. There are imprints from the jewel case tabs, which are common to CDs over 25 years old, and some other slight wear, generally some light creases. In sum, the booklet is “clean and bright” and in very good condition overall.

-The plastic jewel case also is in excellent overall condition with no stains, stickers, writing, broken parts or other such flaws. While it has the minor scuffs and/or rubbing marks that essentially exist on almost all, if not all, plastic jewel cases that are no longer covered by the original sealed cellophane and that are unavoidable over time with any amount of handling. Most importantly, the the jewel case has no broken parts or significant scratches or unattractive blemishes.

OTHER SPECIFICS

As stated, this is a Deutche Grammophon CD. DG is well known for producing the very best quality LPs and CDs. Moreover, as stated, this CD has especially great digital sound quality.

This is a compilation CD of previously recorded music- in other words, these are some songs by Domingo that appeared on previous Verdi and Puccini releases, including songs from Verdi’s Aida, Don Carlos and Puccini’s Manson Lescout. Renowned Conductors include such greats as Claudio Abbado and von Karajan. See photos for details on other performers involved.

The CD has approximately 60 minutes of music!

More details of the recordings and the music are included in the listing's photos of the CD's booklet.

This CD originally sold for at least over $13. It is long Out of Print (OOP) and generally no longer available to be purchased new. In fact, it is extremely difficult to find any copies of this CD available to be purchased. Indeed, at the time of this posting, I could find only a handful of copies sold anywhere, especially domestically. Moreover, several of the available copies are library copies or otherwise in questionable condition. Of course, the cost of available copies in top condition likely will only continue to climb as the supply of copies in collectible condition inevitably continues to decline

In sum, this increasingly hard-to-find CD is in excellent condition and contains truly great music— it would be a highlight of any fine music collection, be a terrific gift and/or at a minimum, be a wonderful listen!

In any event, please reviews the photos to also consider the condition of the CD yourself, but do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns about the CD or the listing.

FYI: I do combine shipping for any purchase of multiple CDs, or any other product I sell, so that you will not incur duplicative shipping costs.

While it shouldn't be an issue here b/c, as stated above, this CD truly is in pristine condition, but, in any event, please be aware that I guarantee all my CDs to have no skips or any other play back problems. I also allow returns and prioritize customer satisfaction; please just contact me with any questions, concerns or complaints, and I will do my very best to address them to your satisfaction.
