Recent Used Finds Classical

Audion:

Okay, here's my first attempt at starting a cool, never-been-done, long running thread ;)

Here's what I picked up today at my local used record shop:

Barry Tuckwell - Mozart Horn Concertos - Angel S-36996
Ashkenazy/Perlman/Tuckwell - Brahms Trio and Franck Sonata - London CS 6628
Kempff - Beethoven Sonatas - Eterna **(1)
Karajan - Romeo and Juliet, Don Juan - London CS 6209 **(2)
Horowitz - 1966 Carnegie Hall - Columbia M2S 757

Total, around $15...

Notes:
**(1) I have an almost identical DGG version to this, but I've never heard of Eterna... Can anyone give me some background here? The notes are all in German... Anyways, I'm a huge Kempff fan, so I cannot wait to hear it!

**(2) My first "London Blueback" and it's in great condition! I wonder what it will sound like?!

Schipo: ah, Grumiaux! Awesome! I'm not really familiar with the RCA plum Victrola stuff, but you cannot go wrong with Monteaux as well.

Ajahu: thanks for the info! I'm just getting into this gig, so it helps to know what to look for. Are the Eterna records decent for the most part?

Raytheprinter: I also found a copy of DGG Der Rosenkavalier with large tulips at a thrfit store in mint condition for $5.. I don't know what it's really worth, but it was a nice find ;)

Keep 'em coming!
