A most successful live recording from Carnegie Hall before it was modified. Your mind's eye can just follow Belafonte as he jumps around the stage. The smallish band that accompanies him is positioned rock-solid in the back and center. Here the audience "noise" is almost as interesting and useful for audio demonstration as the performance. Great work done by the eminent RCA engineer Bob Simpson. Very popular issue indeed, but getting scarce quickly, especially in this kind of shape. Why? Every new collector wants a copy once he/she hears it!

Note: I'm a collector, not a dealer. The reason I'm selling is to downsize my collection. Every record I offer is from my collection and pre-owned records I bought had to be a minimum of vg+++ condition.

VINYL: EX++ (except side 4 EX+), low stampers, remarkable condition, glossy vinyl, no scratches other than light sleeving marks (side 4 mostly), quiet player all the way through, no skips, no breakup even on inner grooves, no cyclical pops, no excess surface noise, clean labels, not much play by original owner nor me.
JACKET: strong EX+ (corner bumps mostly, please see photos), jacket has been stored in a poly outer sleeve since I have owned it...very crisp.
Vinyl has been cleaned on a VPI 16.5 wet vacuum LP cleaner.
