One of those bargain lines from London Records in the early 80’s, the London Jubilee label made up the bulk of my early classical music purchases. As these performances were my first exposure to a lot of works, they have stuck in my mind as sounding ‘right’ as far as performances go. That tends to happen when you get familiar with a particular recording. Luckily most of the releases were of classic performances by major artists, so no bad records, and quite a few excellent ones too. I am working on getting a discography together of the Jubilee line, although they never made it to CD, some of the recordings are still around in different incarnations. To be honest, when I am in a ‘vinyl’ mood, I break out these old recordings, and still enjoy them a lot. Nice big artwork, and good liner notes on the back cover. PS: If you have any release info or artwork from this line, it would be greatly appreciated if you would send it to me :
