Another example - mono sound recordings. Somebody says "it

sounds
like
the orchestra are all sitting on top of each other".

Answer:
don't
be
silly you shouldn't compare films with real life.

Ok, now this is a very 'telling' remark.
That's why I included it in the post.


I guess you've never really heard
any 'mono' then? (Or, at least, not mono done well).
You guessed wrong - my favourite recording of all time is a mono
recording.


What is it?

It is a recording of some Bach played by a Spanish guitarist by the

name
of Narciso Yepes.



Right, I'm not here! (Should have been out of here an hour ago!)

Yepes (LPs of course - WTF else?):

I wish.
Unfortunately it's on a cruddy old compact cassette.



Plays Bach - DG Stereo 2535 248
Spanish Guitar Music (the usual - Albéniz, Granados, Tárrega, Llobet,
Ruiz-Pipó, Villa-Lobos, de Falla) - DG Stereo 2535 182
Guitar Music Of Spain (Catalonian obscure stuff mostly) - Contour

CC7584
Guitar Music Of The 20th Century (Wild modern stuff - brilliant -

Poulenc,
Brouwer, Ruiz-Pipó, Maderna, Balada, Kuera) - DG Stereo 2530 802

A very 'pleasant plucker' indeed..... :-)

Yepp.


(Say the word and I'll, er, tape you summat, if you are quite partial

and
don't have all the above.......!)

Got most of it but thanks for the offer.

cheers
