Great Voices of the 50's

Cyber Express | 06/26/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This amazing collectors item is one of the best things to add to any collection! If you were from the 50's you will love this. If you are not from the 50's you will realize that the BEST MUSIC is from the 50's. There are very few copies that are Brand New and SEALED! The price range for a NEW copy is normally from $230 to $460! I would recommend buying one if you have a chance.

Right now there are two stores in amazon advertising it as NEW but one of them says it is not sealed so there is really only one store that has it BRAND NEW!

Here is the page to find the item. It is from Cyber Express!

Cyber Express has 100% Positive Feedback Rating and is selling the item for $235.95!"

A must for a serious records collector

"I got my set of these discs not long ago (won an auction on ebay, surprisingly the price was more than very attractive). All I can say is that this is a fantastic set, a true legacy of some truly wonderful singers. If you consider yourself a person who loves vocal art then grab it! - these interpretations are just unforgettable. I can assure you that all singers here do a wonderful job and you should not be disappointed, let me just mention Flagstad, Ferrier, Robin, Welitsch, Tebaldi and Bastianini - these made strongest impression but as said b4 - you'll love it, they're all great."
