I just cleaned this album on my VPI 16.5 record cleaner and then played it on my Rega Planar Three.
This album was recorded and manufactured in the Soviet Union! We also have Soviet-era tubes to go with it!
The performance is excellent and heart-felt. There are a few pops and ticks. A 7.5 to eight out of ten.
Selections include "I Go The Road Alone," "My Darling's Ring," "Oh, Yanka. Oh Sweetheart." "A Large Village On My Way," "The Steppe Lies Long Beyond The Volga," "I Shall Go Down The Street," "Water In The Lake," "Do Not Awaken Memories," "The Rendezvous," and "Little Bell."
