UPLOAD! Out-of-Print Historical Compact Discs
http://www.filefactory.com/f/e506defe41134d59
I am pleased to announce that I have now uploaded my Biddulph and Pearl
collections, for European copyright rules specify that recording more than
fifty years old (not the date of the last processing ("fixed in sound") in
American federal copyright law) are in the public domain. I excluded two
of my Biddulphs, Ricci playing the Beethoven and Brahms concerti with a
dozen or so cadenzas. While of immense historical importance, they are not
historical recordings!
I do not know the status of European copyright on piano and organ ROLLS,
though the rolls were punched far more than fifty years ago.
By one estimate I have about 929, consisting of between one and 170 CDs
(that one being the Brilliant Classics "complete" Mozart Edition).
77 Biddulph
52 Pearl
130 Other defunct labels
216 deleted CDs on active labels (many will be removed as I consult web
pages of the labels, Arkivmusic, and the R.E.D. Classical Catalogue when I
get the 2013 edition.)
417 excluded, usually because the recording is less than fifty years old.
892 Total
Somehow this does not add up to 929. I am not going through the immense
chore of reconciliation.
What I need your opinion about is which deleted CDs on active labels I
might upload here to FileFactory. I support the general principle of
copyrights, as a means of encouraging the production of more FRESH
transfers of old recordings. I most definitely shall not upload any
Pristine CDs, even when the recordings are more than fifty years old. Two
cases:
Major labels, like BMG, CBS, Columbia, Decca, London, DG, EMI, MCA,
Mercury, Philips, Sony, Telarc, Teldec, Testament, Vanguard, Vox,
Westminser.
All signs indicate that these labels or their parent companies relegate
classical music to the background. In fact, I can't keep track of the
mergers, proposed mergers, sell offs of classical music divisions. If this
is the case, my uploading will have an insignifant effect on corporate
decisions and will not discourage the making of FRESH transfers.
Shall I refrain from uploading DG collections of, say Kempff and Walcha,
which are likely to remain in their catalogs. What about the Columbia
recordings up through 1962 of Gould?
The second case is that of small labels that continue to be active in
stocking, if not making, historical recordings. Here's the situation for
historical recording on three smaller labels:
Tahra in print 15, deleted 12
Music & Arts in print 8, delted 30
Naxos in print 26, deleted 3
I plan to upload nothing from:
Appian (of which I have 3)
Arbiter (3)
Dutton (2)
Glenn Gould Foundation (3)
Symposium (10)
I have not checked to see which ones are out of print.
In fine, there is what is legal (nearly everything except maybe for piano
and organ ROLLS, even though punched far more than fifty years ago), what
is moral, and what one can get away with (maybe nearly everything
classical, since the major companies don't care and the smaller ones can't
afford the legal fees).
It is the moral issue I should like to see debated here.
Now here are brief listings for my Biddulph and Pearl uploads. If you say
they are more valuable, for music merit and/or rarity, I shall not
disagree. After I am finished, I'll provide a list of Columbia and Victor
M-set equivalents and integrate that knowledge into previous spread
sheets.
BIDDULPH
The Biddulph CDs are each zipped and re-zipped into nine batches.
The booklets (I am missing a few) are zipped into Biddulph Booklets.zip.
In some cases, I split the CD into two, the reason being that when I
converted my entire CD collection into .mp3 files, I put the files of
artist A into the artist A folder and artist B into the artist B folder.
And a few times, I accidentally placed a zipped CD at the end of one batch
and the beginning of the next one.
Please browse this listing, in case you don't immediately download all the
files, and unzip whatever batch suits your fancy first.
I have uploaded this note to http://www.filefactory.com/f/e506defe41134d59
, which is where all files for out of print historical CDs are being
placed.

PEARL
The Pearl CDs are each zipped and re-zipped into nine batches.
The booklets (I am missing a few) are zipped into Pearl Booklets.zip.
In some cases, I split the CD into two, the reason being that when I
converted my entire CD collection into .mp3 files, I put the files of
artist A into the artist A folder and artist B into the artist B folder.
And a few times, I accidentally placed a zipped CD at the end of one batch
and the beginning of the next one.
I have uploaded this note to http://www.filefactory.com/f/e506defe41134d59
, which is where all files for out of print historical CDs are being
placed.

This is very generous.
Last night, File Factory let me download a number of these files without
questions and even simultaneously.
That was very generous, but...
Today, they refuse to download any file more than 500MB unless one
becomes a premium member.

defunct labels. To save everyone's time, I'm going to do major artists
first, like Abendroth, Mengelberg, Scherchen, and Szigeti and from all
labels. So the Biddulphs and Pearls will contain only discs that do not
feature these artists.
I'm also going to take the opportunity to incorporate the booklets
(pdfs) with the tracks (mp3s). I should have done that all along, but
you learn as you go.
It's not quite as much of a chore uploading the second time around,
since I speed up with experience.
Please be patient!
Oh, I found the first response insulting and I am not going to reply to
it. These newsgroups should practice the utmost civility.

As "t" said, this is very generous. (I have not even seen the response that
you found insulting. It was probably made by somebody in my killfile.)
However, I'm afraid I also get the same message from FileFactory, to wit:
"This file is only available to Premium Members. It is larger than the free
download limit of 500 MB. To access this file, you will to need to upgrade

Wish the uploads were lossless.

Steve de Mena <st...@demena.com> appears to have caused the following
letters to be typed in news:dbGdnXnGtfmZWiDN...@giganews.com:
It's certainly not Frank's fault, but I'm reminded of what happened when a
friend of JS Bach sent him a cask of wine. After duties, fees, leakage,
and probably sampling by the people entrusted to carry it, it turned out
not to be much of a gift after all. Not the sender's fault, either.

Is there anything left of the Pavilion records business? I don't think there's been a new Pearl CD for over 5 years. Their catalog was full of very valuable historic reissues, many of which I was fortunate to obtain while available, such as the Zenatello, Ruffo, De Luca, Schnabel, Landowska, and Mengelberg recordings... I've been engaged in the slow process of making backups of these before they go bad; the one set I've not been able to find in playable condition is the 6 CD set of Mengelberg's Columbia recordings; after multiple purchases on amazon I have been able to put together all but Vol. 1 CD 3 from that set; the recordings on that CD, however, are all available on Naxos, transferred by either Mr. Obert Thorn (who did the Pearl transfers, very well, in my opinion), or Ward Marston.
It would be lovely were Pearl to make its back catalog available for download; I'd certainly be willing to pay for that, especially if they include scans of liner notes, etc.

I would be interested in uploading some of them, at least the most important (toscanini, schnabel, busch), in flac format to some specialized blog or tracker. If interested in sharing this great collection, please reply this message.
