Great, and authentic sounding tango tunes. The sound is superb; the only thing that could make them better would be half-speed mastering. The surfaces are dead-quiet, and thanks to the use of 78 rpm, the fidelity and dynamics are unmatched. I can imagine, also, how great these records would sound employing Involve quadraphonic matrix encoding. This would give these records full surround sound, while keeping them fully compatible for regular stereo.
This is the best!
Yet another outstanding selection of music at 78rpm! I have tried to purchase every 78rpm offering from Rivermont, and once again, I was not disappointed! Well done! I especially like these ones being 12" disks, and extra tunes included!
Rivermont has done a masterful job all around in the production of these LPs, maintaining their high quality standards.
The new 2025 bundle of 3 more 78 “EPs” if you will, is even more stunning than the last group!. These ain’t your great Grandparents 78s. The music that mostly borders on, or exceeds 100 years in age, when recording was in its infancy, is here presented by modern ensembles who cherish the music, in some semblance of its original format, yet with sonics that are in the top rung of what today’s recording technology can place on a phonograph disc. As the literature cautions, these are to be played on the finest of today’s playback equipment, not your acoustic wind-up player. You will be greatly rewarded and stunned by the level of the performance and recording.
As always, these records come with the utmost quality; assuredly the best ever offered. Those with high end audio equipment will appreciate their investment even more with these recordings. A 12 inch 78? Wow! Those have been out of existence since the late 1940's. The genre and the format is guaranteed to take you back in time.
Once again I was impressed with the offerings. The performances were excellent across all genres. I am pleased to be part of this renaissance and will continue to purchase the output as it becomes available.
Excellent product and service…thank you
I greatly enjoyed these "recreated" songs originally performed by college groups in the 20s.
I especially like "In the dim, dim dawning" but all the selections are great!
This is one of the albums you need to have if you are a ragtime lover and collector! A great idea to republish a classic album, sold out a long time ago, and then to expand it with another bunch of contemporaries - some of them by Davidson himself!
(Off topic - just a commentary and a plea: I would really appreciate it if the two Ragtime Wizardry albums were available as mp3 downloads. Importing physical cd's to Denmark is not an option because of a criminally high processing fee from the post agency collecting VAT and taxes.)
Musical selections are interesting, performances are great, quality of the vinyl pressing is impressive. What's not to like? Great record!
Not only does the music sound fantastic - the pressing is dead quiet. It is also amazing that it is a NEW 78 rpm record which perfectly fits the style of Vince's music.
Charming to listen to.
Nice and relaxing music to listen to.
