- Some rare records on Columbia, Decca and Deutsche Grammophon. Also, a fine book from 1913 detailing musicians of the day.

It is hard to imagine today that there was once a time when classical records were a major percentage of all records being sold.......I don't see that happening again, unfortunately. Anyway, I always enjoy your classical records videos, Alan. Thanks. Jeff
The historical decline in classical music sales and the rise of rock and roll and all the kinds of music which followed, is probably a good indicator of what could be perceived as the decline in moral standards in society in general. But that's a whole other conversation....
It is because classical back then was seen upon as audiophile pressings. You couldn't just use whatever cartridge either, if I ain't mistaken? Many of those records say, only use high-class stylus'.
On those Decca's e.g. lots of care went into the recording to try and get the very best they could out of the medium.
@@statictraveller I do not disagree with you, but offer a counterpoint. Music, increasingly, is available to all, for free. Freedom of expression. Freedom of choice.
I could well imagine that these types of audiophile quality recordings and the equipment required for quality playback were well out of the reaches of the masses back then. Certainly most auction lots of audiophile quality classical collections seem to originate from the estates of deceased doctors, lawyers and bankers.
Have moral standards declined? I would say certainly, amongst those whose roles are to lead us, govern us and guide us. The common folk seem to me to be just as common as ever, for good or bad. That lass in HMV browsing, or that lad downloading, the latest hiphop or pop music, is far more likely to be concerned with the environment and climate concerns than the kids of yesteryear. So yeah, I can kind of agree with you, but there is my alternative take 😊 My first musical exposure was Roxy Music, The Stranglers, The Jam, etc (to give an indication of my demographic).
I am not into classical music, but have always been curious. It is something I always felt I should appreciate. I always found it difficult to find any resources to help guide me into it. I could not tell you what is the difference between a symphony and a concerto, but I curiously know just about everything about Wet Leg 😮 So, there is that too….
Maybe you need to cover more classical stuff? I would be up for that! Cheers.
@@mike_burke I actually was half joking when I wrote that... The classical records were not known as audiophile back in the day- just records. The introduction of stereo in the late 50s opened up a whole new world, but were necessarily only bought by the wealthy as most people didn't even have a stereo player until the late 60s and early 70s and equipment was very expensive.
Moral standards appear to have declined in general, but really we are just as debased as we were 1000 years ago. People who govern are just people- no different from anyone else. They make mistakes and are not perfect. Does one have to be outstandingly moral before one becomes a leader? If so, there would be no-one to step up.
Students and young people like to concern themselves with the big stories of the day- even if they know precious little of what they are supposed to be fighting for or against - but invariably grow up, get a job, start a family...
I am fairly new (a few years) to classical music myself and am enjoying the learning as I go. In some ways, I am finding it more enjoyable to collect than the usual old rock stuff these days. I often get asked to produce more classical videos and like to share with people the labels and recordings to look out for. I have made a few if you trawl back through my videos.
Anyway, thanks for the comment, Mike. I appreciate it.
Cheers.
Alan
@@statictraveller Hi Alan, I do not think leaders need to be outstandingly moral, I just think a lot of leaders in recent times have been outstandingly immoral. However! Let’s not get deep into all that. I am indeed going through your back catalogue, just now watched your Beethoven 5th video for a second time (the middle one wins for me). I might do a deep dive into just that one piece of music, see if I can get an proper understanding of how it all works and see where that takes me.
Thanks for your reply! Cheers, Mike
You’re so right, it’s good to geek out on this stuff. I was telling my partner about the large tulip Deutsche Grammophon records in my collection but, sadly, I could tell it was lost on her.
Yep. My wife is the same...
NICE record Alan! Bravo! Always impressed by your records.
Cheers. I appreciate that.
That book is a gem to have received let alone the records.
Yes, it is. I got a few large bags of books, mainly history and literature. She said I'm welcome to go back again, too.
Enjoyed your programme very much. Those records you showed make me envious
Hi Gordon. Thank you very much for taking the time to watch and comment. I like to show just classical records sometimes and enjoy finding them much more than regular rock albums these days. Cheers, Alan
Again a second visite, all this old records ( sights ) THANKS it's like old love in mine for until i live😊
Thanks for watching again. 😊
Thank goodness I have a need to drive the speed limit and not a need for speed.
Still here.
We can all be thankful for that, Ed.
l need to go through my DG selection to see which are the older pressings, thick pieces of wax indeed.... enjoyed the video
It would be fantastic to see them in a video one day, Sherv.
maybe a future flip video?!?
@@juliusjabbar1011 Sounds good. That yellow banner always looks great even if there is just a picture of a conductor on the cover.
Excellent video Alan .. some useful information for a classical novice like myself 👍
I really appreciate that, Rob. Thanks. 😊
I love when you do these classical finds because it helps with my searches - trains my eye. I live in a sort of an academic triangle and classical can be abundant. It’s been a joy to learn.
Thanks, Rev. The more I get into buying classical records, the less appealing the regular rock finds become. The wealth of quality pressings, different recordings, beautiful sleeves, etc, is staggering. The huge histories of labels and their various releases is a geek's heaven. The learning is definitely a huge part of the fun of it. And so much of it can be found cheaply and fairly easily, too. It's a win win.
Hi Alan. I found my first SAX Columbia today and of course had to tell someone! Amazingly it was in an Oxfam charity shop for 99 pence and definitely one that ‘got away’ from their record pricers. It’s SAX 2364 Klemperer Eroica and in beautiful condition, complete with EMI inner sleeve. As you can tell I was pretty excited to find it. It was a good haul in total with three Deutsche Grammophon LPs (though nothing extra special) and a Bach Archive Production one, something again that I’d never come across before. Okay I’ll calm down now.
Hi, Robert. You have done very well finding the SAX Columbia disc! I would be excited to find that! That is a particularly difficult one to come across. Very nice. 🙌 The Bach Archive album should sound fantastic, too. They are very well pressed records.
Ah, it's a wonderful thing to have these deeply satisfying shopping days....
@@statictraveller Not long since finished playing it and it's wonderful, no pops, clicks or anything. Cleaning the Bach one however I see there's a scratch on one side that I can feel with my fingertip so perhaps not so lucky there but we'll see. If it is audible then I'm not as bothered to be honest as I'd have got it anyway if I'd noticed it in the shop (they're such a faff to get out of the folder) as I'd have liked it purely for the novelty of never having had one before. The assistant in the shop said that she'd sold quite a bit of classical vinyl today which made me wonder what else I'd missed out on....I'll go back on Thursday, just in case, as I'm back in work tomorrow.
@@robertmorgan9205 Here's hoping for some more goodies.... 👍
Love watching your classical videos.. Just started collecting myself.. So great inspiration from you and Music On Record👍👍 Thank you.
Thank you. Quite a number of people have said they value the classical videos. There are so many great records out there, and at least for the time being, it is possible to pick up some very nice ones for very good prices.
Would you be interested in buying from the inherited collection that O have. Of course I understand you may not give your email address for sending you the list. Is there a post address or may be email addtess at wor
Paderewski was quite a guy. I lived for years in the Californian spa town where he bought a ranch after his music career, before he returned to Poland as a statesman. Among his other accomplishments, he was a pioneer in the wine industry in that state.
Some people are amazing. I can barely muster the enthusiasm to get out of bed in the morning...
Hi Alan, we have all done that - a regretable sale of a rare record. But to find it again is unreal. You must live near the nicest lady in the UK, all I find is classical mono copies in okay condition. Nice book at the end.
Cheers, Paul
Hi Paul. Yes, it was an amazing find to get it back- I didn't think I would see it again. It was kind of her to let me have her records, but the unfortunate circumstances meant the time had come. She was really happy they weren't going to end up as landfill.
On the subject of classical music books I recently picked up Rimsky Korsakov -my musical life written in 1923 now a Faber paperback . To be honest what prompted me was remembering that Rick Wakeman's book choice on Desert Island Discs was Principles of Orchestrations by Rimsky Korsakov! Should be interesting though.
That does sound interesting, Jim. I have been thinking of picking up some autobiographical books by composers myself recently. It would be good to read what they have to say rather than what a critic thinks for a change.
Great finds. I have "non-valuable" London and Angel versions of many of those British Decca and British Columbia LPs, but I do have the original, "big tulip", "red stereo" DG issue of the Tchaikovsky 6 with Mravinsky and the LPO from the dollar bins. That book is another great find.
Hi. The 'Made in England' UK pressings on US labels are a bargain in the States. The real value is in the music, of course, but it is a real thrill to find the sought-after rarities for cheap.
@@statictraveller Agreed. As you obviously know, in the collectible classical LP world, most of the rarities are from England, France and Germany, where the economies were depressed and still recovering from the war. Early classical LPs were produced in far smaller numbers than in the US. As I didn't live in Europe I didn't worry that I wasn't going to find European rarities and just collected for the music. Ironically, a few of my early American LPs, such as 1950s recordings by Leonid Kogan and Erica Morini on Westminster and Nathan Milstein on Capitol, and some of the less common of the early RCA Living Stereo series, did gain some value as collectibles. But these are not "rare" in the way your early European LPs are.
Hi Alan. Great finds. I am always looking foreward to see new classical vinyl videos at your channel. These british pressings are wonderful. Many greetings. Reinhard ☺️
Thank you, Reinhard. They are very nice. I wish I could find more!
@@statictraveller I wish you much luck to find more👍
Sweet! you found the stereo again! Dang happy for you, synced w you Alan, I’m leaving in a few and I pulled some classical guitar music to play in my car that I transferred from record....enjoyed the video as always .... have a wonderful weekend my friend- 🦊Lis
I don't regret getting rid of records often, but the Brahms one nagged a bit, probably due to the frequent reminders caused by owning the other two versions! I hope you have a lovely weekend too, Lis. Thanks for dropping by again.
Astonishing finds. It’s always a joy finding a record that you got rid of again. I have that Tchaikovsky piece. Was just listening to Yepes on DG yesterday. You’re lucky to be in that part of the world, don’t see much SAX’s here mostly just London and Angel reissues (they still sound good). Always a joy to hear you speak classical. Do you have a current favorite piece? God bless
Thank you, Junior. One piece I have been surprised by recently is Robert Schumann's Dichterliebe, sung by Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau with Jörg Demus on piano. (It is on the shelf behind me in this video). It is a song cycle which is not something I would normally gravitate towards, but it has some simply sublime moments. I have considered making a video on it.
I’ve been buying classical records for a few months now but, so far, it’s been early Decca/Philips/Columbia etc but mainly in mono (apart from later represses). I’m loving that I’m able to find these in charity shops or record shops for very little money and in great condition. I’d love to come across some of these great, early stereo ones but until then I’m loving how fabulous they sound, even the mono versions.
The early mono pressings can still sound marvellous, Robert. There are so many great records out there for cheap. It's a good job that they're not as popular as rock and jazz. At least for the time being....
@@statictraveller Yes, I’m hoping I can build a sizeable collection of them before people start to realise that .
Hi Alan,
I hope you are well.
I thought I'd complete the story of the interesting hoard of 45s I found a few weeks ago. I listed the Aussies last time. Here are the Brit and US 45 finds.
Before I list them though, a couple of interesting books I have picked up that I would recommend to you. Firstly, 'R. Crumb, The Complete Record Cover Collection'. A gorgeously put together h/b book in slipcase, showcasing Crumb's cover artwork for record albums by old blues artists and more recent musos like Janis Joplin.
Another book worth checking out is 'Need More Love, A Graphic Memoir' by Aline Kominsky Crumb. She's the wife of R. Crumb and an established cartoonist in her own right.
Anyway...back t the 45s.
Let's start with the exciting stuff (to me at least)
Marc Bolan's band John's Children 45 'Desdemona/Remember Thomas A Becket' (NH-59094). I love both tracks.
The Seeds 'Pushin Too Hard/Try to Understand' (VN9277 promo) Reminds me of The Troggs. On Vocalion label, known for its blues 78s
The Hombres 'Let it All Out/ Go Girl, Go' (Verve VS3). Two brilliant, but completely different, late 60s garage classics
Detroit Wheels- 'Linda Sue Dixon/ Tally Ho' (HL-8410). Two fantastic funky soul tracks, right up your alley, Alan.
An interesting band on White Whale Records founded in 1995 in the USA is Steel Wool 'No Sugar Tonight' (WWK3668 promo). Great cover of the Guess Who song.
The Spats 'Go Go Yamaha/Have You Ever Seen Me Crying' (MK1102). Discogs likes this rare naive sounding 60's garage surf band single.
Chubby Checker and Bobby Rydell 'Goin Surfin' (SEGO 70073) Great pic sleeve. Very sort after EP. Not sure why.
Maple Lace - 'Gimme Dat Ding/ Comes A Time' (CP003). A Side is novelty shit. B Side is great
The Crystals - Then He Kissed Me/Brother Julius (Philles Records)
The Exciters - Get Him/ Its So Exciting (UA1040) Fantastic stuff
The Sensations 'Let Me In/ I'll be True' (Chess CH004) Lovely female doo wop A side
The Cinders - 'Cinnamon Cinder/ C'Mon Wobble'
Roxy Music- Virginia Plain/The Numberer (IK4820) Collectable 45 version
3 picture sleeve Hollies EPs, 'Here I Go Again (GEPO 8915); 'Jennifer Eccles (GEPO 70063) and 'Carrie Anne' (GEPO 70049). The standout for me is the 'Jennifer Eccles' EP with the psychedelic tracks 'Try Me' and 'Dear Eloise'
2 Animals EPs in picture sleeves 'The Animals is Here' (SEGO 8374) and 'In the Beginning there was the Early Animals' (DFEA 8643).
2 picture disc EPs The Animals 'House of the Rising Sun' (RRP1) and Jeff Beck EP Hi Ho Silver Lining (RRP3). Both 1982 reissues
Jeff Beck 45 Hi Ho/Bolero (DO-4783)
Beatles picture sleeve 45 Strawberry Fields/Penny Lane (A8243) mono
The Status Quo - 'Ice in the Sun/ When My Mind is Not Live' (AP-1520)
3x45s from one of my favorite 60's bands, The Move - 'Flowers in the Rain/Lemon Tree (FK1994); Fire Brigade/Walk Upon the Water (FK-2193) and 'Blackberry Way/Mist on a Monday Morning' (FK-2818)
Traffic 'Paper Sun/Giving It to You (FK1843); Hole in My Shoe/ Smiling Phases (FK1970 Promo); Traffic Hole In My Shoe EP picture sleeve (X11814)
Rolling Stones picture sleeve EP 'Route 66' (DFEA7521)
Rolling Stones - 'We Love You / Dandelion' (Y7367)
And finally, an interesting (if twee) one commemorating the artist L.S. Lowry. Brian and Michael - 'Matchstalk Men and Matchstalk Cats and Dogs (Lowry's Song) (7N46035) (picture sleeve showing Lowry painting) What do you know about this, Alan? Was it used to promote a Lowry exhibition?
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts, good or bad.
All the best
Kevin
Hi Kevin.
I must confess that I have never been a fan of Robert Crumb's artwork. It has never really appealed to me. I am probably the only person in the VC who thinks that, though...
A lot of the records you have found I own or know. The John's Children single is the only one I own by them on 45. Pushin' Too Hard is a classic garage single and one that I play pretty often. I saw Sky Saxon and The Seeds live back in the early 2000s.
I didn't know the Detroit Wheels tracks and particularly liked the B side. I have Mitch Ryder and The Detroit Wheels debut album, which is a fantastic record.
You found some nice doo wop and early soul singles. I like coming across EPs for the cover designs, but find they tend to sound a bit rough. Status Quo's early singles are quintessential psych but they tend to get overlooked. The B side of yours is top drawer. I am not such a fan of The Move, although I have a few of their singles. I Can Hear The Grass Grow is one of my favourite tracks, though I probably prefer The blues Magoos' version.
The Brian and Michael single wasn't used to promote an exhibition, but was a one hit wonder in the UK and reached the top of the charts. I remember it very well and always liked the song. In fact, I think I have the record somewhere. It is one of those songs like Terry Jacks' Seasons Of The Sun and Wings' Mull of Kintyre which stays with you. For better or worse...
Cheers,
Alan
Hi Allan,
Thanks for your response to my 45 haul. Whilst I remember, I'm wondering if you have come across this person's You Tube music channel. Their name is Απόλλων Θηρευτής
They play lots of obscure prog and psych albums. Enjoy!.
As far as R. Crumb goes I'm not a fan of his comics at all, but I do like some of his record cover ideas such as for Blind Boy Fuller, Hokum Boys, Gus Cannon and Memphis Jug Band. I have always had a passionate interest in negro American jug, hokum and string bands from the 1920s as well as their modern New Orleans equivalents such as Hokum High Rollers, St. Cinder, Yes Ma'am String Band, Secret Six, and Tuba Skinny.
In response to your comments, I was impressed to see you have been to a Seeds gig. I've never heard of Sky Saxon, but I'll look them up today.
All of the 45s I found were from one garage sale. The guy had a suitcase full of 45s and was selling them for 50 cents each. I REALLY should have gone thru the box twice as I know I missed a few good ones on reflection.
I've had a bit of luck recently asking charity shop workers if they have any new vinyl stock hidden behind the 'staff only' curtain. You'd be surprised how many have said 'yes' and then pulled them out. Its usually rubbish, but I did manage to find a near mint copy of Kraftwerk 'Man Machine'. Not that I like Kraftwerk all that much😂😂. I wish I knew classical music as well as you do as I come across tons of it. I'm normally only watching out for Columbia SAX and early Decca. I've actually written a lot of your advice down on paper about what to look out for. I'll have to review it.
Anyway Alan, I don't want to put you to sleep so I'll finish here.
Thanks for sharing the passion.
Kevin
@One_Persons_Opinion 😂 Too... (yawn)... late... (yawn) zzz zzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
The Brahms Violin Concerto is on Speakers Corner in stereo with the silver label, incidentally. The label really is lovely. That’s the only version I have of that one. Really enjoyed the video, thanks!
Thank you so much. The blue / silver Columbia label is a favourite of mine and it's always a thrill to find one.
Fantastique collection ! Je suis admiratif, ces superbes albums comme au bon vieux temps du vinyle Thanks 😊
Thank you, Jean-Luc. I really appreciate it. 😊
@@statictraveller i'm happy you understand french my ENGLISH IS pour! Your Channel IS discovery of the day, i'll be back , thanks again, i like all style JAZZ too , i'm 71 years old and i LISTEN since 1966 , my first record was THE WHO ( FRENCH EP " MY GENERATION, OF COURSE!)
@@jean-lucpernel2202 The Who is a very good place to start!

So glad you found what SEEmingly you hadn't anymore ... 3 in ONE , just like the TRIUNE GOD OF THE BIBLE OF OUR FOREFATHERS.
Don't sell out nor throw any away. Not ever Again... Shema?
Rest assured, I am keeping this trinity together, Alex.
Ouah t.rex too, you're versatile ! 😊
Are Columbia light and dark blue early pressings so rare? They must be because I've so rarely seen them to the best of my memory. Unfortunately all the 78s I had as part of that huge job lot I got rid of all them as only have my portable cheapy with 78 speed on it. I'm at least starting to recognise some of the names but as to what is better or not so good pressings I'm flummoxed. The whole mono or stereo thing is confusing too. Are these big selling prices on discogs or elsewhere?
You can just look up the record catalogue number on discogs and see if they are valuable or not, like any other record. It is a minefield really. I just try to show the same few things to look out for. (Decca SXL Original Recording on label; large tulips on Deutsche Grammophon label; SAX code on Columbia albums). It can get a bit overwhelming. Might be best to stick with the 90s dance records, Martin. That's a whole load of minutiae and expertise that most people don't have right there!
I like the picture of Paddywhiskey...he reminds me of roger waters....musician with political inclinations...any pics of HOLST with a LIME GREEN Mohawk perchance?
Unfortunately, not. However, could I interest you in a picture of Michael45 in an edible strawberry jockstrap?
@@statictraveller you were SO close Alan....I think vanilla with a streak of chocolate would be more to my taste!!!
''Bag Rash'' LOL never heard that one before. You have access to much higher quality records in the U.K. than here in the U.S.
It's probably a UK record collector phrase. Under certain conditions, the polythene liners used in the 60s can cause a smearing and mottling effect on the records, which can be non-removable. Yes, the records produced here were generally of excellent quality, though I hear US collectors talk very highly of RCA Living Stereo releases. Thanks for stopping by.
Unfortunately, with so many quiet passages in Classical music, even vintage mint condition records without obvious defects will have occasional noise, clicks and pops, due to the poorer quality of the early vinyl. Later pressings made from the mid '60's onwards can actually sound better than the original.
Hi. Yes, and stereo stylus and arm technology were not what they are now, which might also have had an effect on the record surface. I still love playing them, though, and a little surface noise never hurt anyone: repetitive clicks and pops on the other hand....
Alan, wonderful video. Donating money to that woman's church was a nice gesture. Dennis Brain is astounding, I have the Mozart piece paired with Strauss. Brahms and Ligeti's ''Horn Trios'' are both awesome listens. Love those old books with the rough edges.
Thank you, Michael. Finding these original 78s was very nice. There is something special in the sound of those old discs. Like you, I love those old period books too, though still gravitate towards the musty paperbacks. (Philistine)...
I'm buying up classical cd's now starting with bach...then who knows where the rabbit hole will take me...suggestions?
That's a big question. Bach's cello suites, Goldberg Variations, St Matthew's Passion, Brandenburg Concertos. If you like Bach, then I recommend Haydn. Other great works: The symphonies of Sibelius (Berglund conducting) Beethoven (Klemperer or Karajan conducting), Holst's The Planets, Mahler's symphonies. The incredibly moving Richard Strauss' 4 Last Songs - the 3 best performances are with either Jessye Norman, Elizabeth Schwartzkopf, or Karajan's with Gundula Janowitz. There's a whole world of things to explore. Ultimately, it's whatever connects with you and moves you the most. Have fun!
@@statictraveller o and btw I bought a book the definitive guide to classical music so I can look up these suggestions from you...thanx
Pleased to hear there will be no more groaning in your house, Alan.
You really should stop wigging in, John.
Hey I’ve got a question, my grand father Deszo Ernster (an opera singer with a long career) was very close friends with Otto Klemperer. Going through my father’s things I’ve found an enormous amount of correspondence/information/photos/memorabilia of Otto. What should I do with it? I’m just now going through the enormous LP collection he had, just randomly checked a Klemperer album, and came on here to search selling classical music. And your video started with Klemperer. Big brother is listening 🤦🏼♂️🤣🤣👍🏻
Big Brother responding. It sounds like you have a very unique collection of memorabilia that the classical music world would be really interested in. I would be, but I can't afford it. I think you should sell it through a specialist music auction sale. It might be worth contacting one of the classical music magazines and asking them. Dave Hurwitz on CZcams might be able to help. He uploads videos every day and is an expert with decades of experience.
Hah😆thanks for the reply Big Brother. Yes if nothing else I’d like it all to go somewhere that it can be seen and appreciated. As I go through it I can send some info if you’d like
@adamernster2471 Klemperer has always been my favourite conductor, so that could be interesting. Thanks.
And we in the U.S. get....Angel......sigh.
The ones to look out for are the red labels which say 'Made in England'. At the end of my most recent video, I show a great example.
@@statictraveller Yes. When I have to resort to Angel, I always look for the red label.
As you know I'm very very witty, an example of this is my standard comment on Dennis Brain playing Mozart records, - if you had a brain, you'd not buy any! Dennis had this visage or aroma of a camp serial killer. Rumour had it he dissolved his victims in his horn after having used his little horn on the carcass.
If I had half a brain, I would come up with a witty response to this. Fortunately, I have a whole brain and have wisely decided that I can't be bothered.
@@statictraveller Let's be frank, Dennis - the man who has caused shudders in vinyls diggers in charity shops in the UK since 1974 - may not have been blessed with the face one would want in ones proximity - but we'd both want to be known as principal HORN players for eternity!
Are classical records in the UK as cheap to get as they are here in the U S of A?
The rarer records like the ones shown here are becoming difficult to find for a good price. Later issues like 80s Deutsche Grammophon are easy to pick up cheap.
@@statictraveller Boxed sets of Classical LPs are insanely cheeep where i live. I got a set of The Budapest Quartet-Beethoven late Quartets for $2 at a Used store rummage sale, and just recently a DG box of LaSalle Quartet for a few bucks.
@7:40 Why would you sell the record if it was perfect? Wouldn't you enjoy it yourself, as you seem to love these records, or?
I thought that owning the red label stereo would suffice. I was wrong.
@@statictraveller No offence intended, but is your main goal finding rare records to flip them for the money?
@Rock And Roll No, not at all. Like most collectors, I sometimes sell records and thin out the collection here and there. Obviously, this just makes room for more records.....
@@One_Persons_Opinion T.w.a.t.
I wrote my reply before you edited yours. It was not meant as a personal comment!
please NO MORE Classical Alan.....DISCO ONLY!!!!....thanking you in advance!
Be careful what you wish for.... it might just come true.
