About
Recorded by baritone Roy Henderson, the 24-minute piece was Frederick Delius’s setting of Walt Whitman’s poetry to music, creating a shifting, gentle piece, that has always remained a firm favourite among fans of the composer.
With the latest technology at Abbey Road, we present this historic recording to you twice: a ‘needle drop’ flat transfer of the original 1929 recording on the A sides of the 3 discs, and then a cleaned-up as much as possible version on the B sides. Both sides will be available to you digitally on a download card
Sea Drift is housed in a beautiful, gold-and-black embossed 10” circular tin, which replicates the majesty of that early label: a bust of Beethoven presiding over the bold claim ‘THE SUPREME RECORD’. Each set has a numbered fact sheet, and the records themselves are protected by die cut foam discs.
90 years later, Sea Drift is a perfect souvenir for the label’s special birthday. Strictly limited edition of 900 copies, arriving to coincide with the special celebratory 400-page book for Decca and the label’s return to its ‘Lost Studio’, it is a special product to cherish.
