Decca’s recorded legacy is
dominated by the huge number of complete opera recordings and vocal
recitals. While a vast number of these recordings have seen CD release
in the past 20 years, many of the original LP recitals have been reissued
with other material in order to increase the overall playing time
due to the longer time available on CD and modern covers have replaced
the originals.
This new mini-series is unashamedly nostalgic and presents original
recitals as they were first published during the 1950s and 1960s.
Original LP cover art is reproduced and the original back of the LP
is used as the inside of the digipack. A clear tray is used with a
detail from the original LP sleeve as a background, and the back of
the digipack gives the tracklist and artist details in a uniform,
current style.
On this site you can exclusively view the liner notes and back cover
notes from the original vinyl LPs. To do this, go to the release page,
and click the tab labelled 'Back Cover Notes". A small pop-up
window will launch with a scan of the back cover. You can re-size
this window to view the cover clearly. Liner notes (where they exisit)
will launch from another clearly labelled tab as a PDF file in a popup
window. |
