[f_minor] cbc

[michael macelletti]

just finished listening to an early ( early 50's )  cbc bach recording. there 
aren't many of these cbc recordings, but they're worth more than all the 
so-called " great recordings of the century " combined. -- too bad that 
conversation about getting the gg hidden vault recordings released ended. that 
would be definitely worth the effort. years ago there used to be an " arturo 
toscanini society." we would pay our yearly dues, then be able to purchase 
non-public issues of the symphonies or missa of beethoven, and concert 
recordings of works of other composers recorded by a.t. . the sound was terrible 
but it was worth it just to have them.  the live london recordings of the brahms 
symphonies where the speeds got so fast , he almost lost it.  wow !-- then wanda 
came along and closed us up.  too bad, it was good while it lasted.  but with 
gg, there is no wanda to stop us. just the humane society and salvation army. 
and they would appreciate the money.  oh well, just a hopeful thought.
