Brahms Symphony 3 - Kindler NSO Victor 78s front.

Very rare original 78 issue of a very fine recording. Hans Kindler founded the National Symphony in Washington DC, and served as its conductor on several recordings. This Brahms 3rd has a charm all its own.

Holst The Planets - Boult LPO Nixa

I have this recording on Westminster open reel tape, and the Westminster Gold issue with the Buck Rogers cover. But, I just had to have this. I freely admit I purchased this solely for the cover.
