Acker Bilk 'Blue Acker' (UK Columbia Studio 2, stereo). With Stan Tracey's Big Brass.

Brilliantly recorded, as ever, by Adrian Kerridge.

No expense spared with the cover photo. Tin-foil glacial backdrop !

But I've always thought it was quite witty. And that excuses cheapskateness!

Webern - Symphony / SQ #5 & 9 - (Dial)

Listening to the quartets... haven't spun 'em in years.

Got that one too. Blue cover. My other "classical" dials include the Hovhaness (yellow) and the Schoenberg 3rd quartet (green). The Webern and Schoenberg quartet material (and much more) is available in a wonderful 6 disc Rudolf Kolisch box on Music & Arts.

BTW, for the uninitiated, "#5 & 9" are opus numbers, not the quartet numbers.

30+ years ago I discussed reissuing all the Dial classical material with Ross Russell. Wish I could find the correspondence. Gotta be here somewhere.

Yes, excellent, with Rene Liebowitz directing the symphony. I like the sound, too, though it may not be up to "modern" presence...

Whoops, left out the "Op." there. This is the only Dial classical I have, but it's a fantastic disc.

Possible that some of Ross' correspondence from you is in the Ross Russell papers here at the Harry Ransom Center.
