      I think the only CD was copied from LP.
      This late '60's vintage of EMI vinyl has some general low-level 'surface noise' - but the original LP is slightly lacking in definition by comparison: the same applies with various MFP issues (Schuchter: Kodaly/Dohnanyi - Kletzki: Tchaikovskty/Smetana/Ravel) but the Grieg PC (Lympany) is far superior to the original CLP.
