Carlo Curley Plays The Allen Digital Computer Organ - Vinyl - 1980 - part 1 - Prel. & Fugue - B Min

Описание: Prelude & Fugue in B Minor by J S Bach. From the album "Carlo Curley Plays The Allen Digital Computer Organ", this is Carlo Curley playing at St. Francis DeSales Roman Catholic Church at Muskegon, Michigan, USA, on an Allen Digital Electronic Computer Classical Organ, from a Vinyl LP 33 1/3 RPM record, year not stated exactly, but I believe this to be 1980, this is part 1. This is Carlo's 11th album, according to the text on the rear cover of the LP sleeve. This LP is one of Donald Lee Westfield's items (DLW), number DLW 1018 (26981).

Record player used was my 1993 vintage second hand Technics SL-1210 MK2, stock configuration, with Stanton 500 MK2 cartridge and a Kyowa 500AL stylus (since the original Stanton D500AL MK2 was faulty / got damaged by a previous owner) tracking at 3g Vertical Tracking Force and 3g Anti-Skate / Bias, using the included extra headshell weight (since cart was under 6g), cart set as parallel to the headshell as I could by eye, and stylus overhang set with the Technics 52mm overhang gauge, and running at 2mm Tone Arm Height (the adjustment was initially seized solid, I freed and serviced it), and TT was levelled. TT spindle was lifted, swabbed with q-tip, and re-oiled with 3 drops of original correct Technics oil, as per user manual.

This album is rare and LONG out of print and was never available on any other format as far as I am aware?

The record has NOT been cleaned at this time, I tried to get it cleaned at local shop Kaleidoscope Records which has a VPI RCM but the person who served me had unfortunately had a stroke and could no longer operate the record cleaning machine.

Beyond what I consider normal for vinyl, the only unwanted extra distortion is some odd stylus ringing noise from time to time between tracks, and the low frequency rumble is about normal for Vinyl, the frequency response is pretty good in the bass and treble. My turntable is properly grounded, the TT is on a separate cabinet from my amplifier to prevent mechanical hum being captured from the amp. transformer.
There is practically no distortion (mistracking) in either audio channel when I tested the TT with Lonnie Gordon Beyond Your Wildest Dreams 12" / 45 RPM, or from this record here, even on the Inner Grooves nearly at the end, beyond what I consider normal for vinyl. BTW I am not one for de-clicking the sound from LP's as I don't like the effect it has on the sound. The LP was played with speakers off, through my Technics SU-V5 amp's preamp stage into a HHB CDR800 CD Recorder, monitoring on headphones, and then the CD was ripped into the PC.
I have enlarged and moved around the album text on the front of the album cover to make it as legible as I can. There is NOTHING on the rear of the album cover!

Unfortunately I seem to have acquired quite a poor pressing of this LP, it has a lot of scratches and noise which is a pity. Someday when I have acquired every Carlo Curley item that there is, I shall get a better copy of this LP.
