Rodgers & Hammerstein • Petula Clark ‎– The Sound Of Music (London 1981 Cast Album) Soundtrack Musical Vinyl LP

Very good British-only deluxe gatefold issue.
Performed at the Apollo Victoria, London.
Written by Rodgers & Hammerstein. Produced by Ross Taylor.

Principal members of the cast included Petula Clark, Michael Jayston, June Bronhill, Honor Blackman, John Bennett, Paul Shearstone & Claire Parker and the von Trapp family children.

The back sleeve reads: "This is a 33 1/3 rpm Digital Album, the first original cast album recorded in this manner."

Condition
VINYL: VG+. Wonderfully clean on visual inspection. No marks, scuffs or hairlines on either side. Played just pre-listing and sound clarity is great throughout. Some light surface noise at run-ins and between some cues and quieter sequences but plays with no skipping, jumping or sticking. All vocals sound fantastic. An enjoyable listen to this stage musical gem.
OUTER SLEEVE/COVER: VG. Colours wonderfully clear and unfaded. Thick card gatefold sleeve. Fantastic gloss sheen to both outer gates. Front has some creases, scuffs and buckling to spine corners. Other two corners lightly scuffed. Mild wear to top and bottom edges. Spine is readable but has some light scuffs. Both apertures only lightly nicked. Rear outer gate in great shape with just tiny scuffs along bottom edge – but nothing major. Inner gate unmarked and clean. A decent example.
INNER SLEEVE: NM. Original. Thick white paper picture sleeve with squared corners. Blue printed text on both sides featuring poster on one side and full cast on the other. No rips, stains, creases or other defects.
