Borodin / London- George London (CD)
The present album is a re-release of Bavarian broadcast recordings of 1953-56 featuring legendary bass-baritone George London at the height of his career.

"(The) collection is vintage London all the way" (American Record Guide) "The extracts from Aida and Die Walküre with Astrid Varnay are electrifying" (BBC Music Magazine) "This is a worthy representation of a singer whose career was ended too soon."
