Is anybody aware of a Columbia recording of Gustav Holst,himself
conducting "The Planets" ?This probably dates from the 1920s,or early
30s.I had just learned of this particular recording myself.How common
is it?Did Columbia,or EMI keep it around for long?
I think I may have seen one,at a local antique mall.The trouble is,the
guy who has it,is an antique phonograph dealer,who personally sold me
about ninety,of his rarest,choicest classical,and R&B/early rock
78s,in 2005,for $2.00 each,and is still mad at me about it.I saw it in
his section of the store,the other day,but without a price.I didn't
care to hang around long enough to look it over.Is it rare enough to
go back,and pester him over ?
