Vinyl Classics Vol. 3

Listening notes

Vinyl Classics Vol. 3 is a compilation CD released in 2016 on the Stereoplay label, carrying catalog number 06/16. The release draws from four broad genres — classical, jazz, pop, and rock — and collects thirteen tracks from across those categories.

The tracklist opens with "Chakto" and moves through a range of well-known titles. Jazz listeners will recognize "Day-O," "Angel Eyes," "Unsquare Dance," and "Blue In Green" among the selections. The rock and pop side of the compilation includes "Surfin' Safari," while "What's A Little More Rain," "Gee The Bee," and "Angel Eyes" represent further entries from the lighter popular end of the spectrum. The classical portion of the disc is substantial, accounting for the latter portion of the program. It includes "Toccata & Fuge D-Moll," the Vorspiel from Das Rheingold, a violin concerto third movement, the third movement of a sixth symphony, and "Das Grosse Tor Zu Kiev" — a reference to the concluding movement of Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition. Track durations are not available in the verified data.

The Stereoplay name is associated with German audio and hi-fi publishing, and the catalog number format 06/16 suggests a June 2016 release date, though this should be confirmed by a fact checker before publication. No performer, arranger, or production credits are confirmed in the available data and should not be assumed.
