It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

RE: 1956 Barbirolli Enigma Variations

Here's the Mercury 2-track tape issue at 7½ ips. The HDTT issue is from a 2-track 15 ips copy that they had access to. I guess they didn't have this tape box to scan, although they do often use 7½ ips 2-track and 4-track tapes as a source. The LP has additional music. The recording was made in Manchester's Free Trade Hall. The notes say, "Elgar's orchestral masterpiece provides a stunning demonstration of stereophonic sound reproduction, since each instrument in the orchestra is at one time or another given an opportunity to sing its solo."
