CD92907 Bayreuth Ring 1965

I noticed this ring was no longer available, so have reloaded it. I took the opportunity to re-pitch where necessary (most ran slightly flat), reinstate the missing commentary at the start of Siegfried, and sourced a better copy of the last 20mins of Gotterdammerung so the 'swish' has been much mitigated. It's a great ring, the first of Bohm's Bayreuth rings, with a top notch cast. From American rebroadcast tapes, mainly 160kps mono, some 128kps I think. Tim
