On the other hand certain lines don't seem to have been reissued on CD
at all -- for instance, the cheap albums available on Plymouth, or
Remington, or Colosseum in the early 1950s. We had a lot of those back then.
And have the Vanguard Everyman LPs been reissued on CD? How about the
discs on Westminster that were reissued on 1960s cut-price LPs?
There were a *lot* of classical LPs in the 50s. Just looking at the
charts for playback curves reminds me of some long-lost labels -- what
happened to Urania Records, or Haydn Society for that matter?
Tracing what became of the 1950s labels (and their master tapes) might
make a nice article for the ARSC Journal.
Peace,
Paul
