@ "HutchFan" ( or to whom it may concern) : https://sofronitskydiscographie.wordpress.com/ Look at his uncredible document/discography of Vladimir Sofronitsky (a true labour of love) which gives an idea which sources were used for the Denon Sofronitsky releases ....

The older I get the more often I play this slowly unfolding masterpiece ....

Speaking of Joe Wilson "When A Man Cries", this and more despair and misre is collected on subject ACE/Kent Deep Soul compilation released in 1999 .... still available and highly recommended ....

Gern geschehen 😇😃 ....

Clint Houston + Billy Hart an ace rhythm backbone ....

This not easy to be answered especially as a lot infos remains (to me) unavailable due to being written either in russian or japanese font. His Beethoven and Bach recordings issued on Denon were originally Melodiya releases .... but there are also broadcast recordings and I suspect Schumann Toccata op 7 + Fantasia op 17 recorded in 1970 is such a case .... Based on the forementioned there had to be a licensing deal between Denon and Melodiya .... but remember, the Denon releases started in the mid90`s, when - based on the breakdown of Soviet Union - things were in "free flow" .... But Anatoly Vedernikov was - due to stiff competiton from contemporaries -seemingly not considered premier line of Russian pianists, f.i he was not even granted a release within the highly acclaimed BMG/Melodiya 20 CD series "Russian Piano School" from 1996 .... Nevertheless, if you can get your hands on any of his Beethoven or said Schumann Denon CD´s don`t hesitate ....

Simple pleasure(s) .... guaranteed ....
