I recently bought the LP "Weihnachtslieder" (DGG, 1970, with Demus). In his DFD discography Whitton lists as one of the songs on this recording Adolphe Adam,...
Dear Charlie and List, Ah yes, one of the DFD mystery LP's. Well, that song is on the British DG pressing of Christmas Songs. The German DG omits it, why I...
Hi Walter, Thanks for solving that little mystery. It's an annoying discrepancy between the two versions, and now I'll have to look for a British pressing,...

Dear Margo & List, ... Yes, it's a very interesting question, not that we'll ever know the answer. But it doesn't seem to me that letters, for example, could...

Hi Jim, I see (or hear) things differently. To me DFD was at the peak of his voice in the late 60s and early 70s when he recorded the DG Schubert set. The...
