Condition :-

The Sleeve :-

We should start by saying, we have never found one of these before. Obtained from a one previous owner collection, with all records bought as rare exotic imports from new in the UK at the time, the heavyweight pasted laminate sleeve is in beautiful shape. Clean, with rich, vivid colours & all text clearly legible, there is just the faintest bit of wear or minor discolouring at the edges but this is of little consequence. The sleeve is simply stunning, & complete with the correct period company catalogue inner. It also retains a nice, period UK tax code sticker & even the Mecolico royalty sticker for author's rights, which were affixed during export from the US. Very nice indeed.

The Labels :-

This beautiful first issue copy was pressed just after "Blue Note Records" became an incorporated company & a registered trademark, hence the inclusion of 'INC' & 'R' lettering on the labels.

These are the original 'Deep Groove' versions of the West 63rd Address label, twice as rare as the regular version, which is hard enough to find. Both sides are clean & free from writing, stickers, excessive wear or any other blemishes that would affect the print. There is just some spindle to indicate play but nothing too excessive.

The Vinyl :-

The Rudy Van Gelder initials 'RVG' & the 'ear' logo are stamped and etched into the runoff area. The matrices, like the 'ear' are hand scratched. A combination of Van Gelder's sound engineering & Plastylite pressing is well & truly the 'golden age' of highest quality, Blue Note pressings. We really should be putting these in our audiophile store!

The vinyl has been professionally cleaned on a Matrix machine and has come up looking sparkling. Under a bright light, there is just a little light axial wear or faint paper scuffs to indicate some play & enjoyment in the past. Upon play testing both sides, we can confirm this one truly does sound remarkable. We give this our highest recommendation.

We are pleased to finally be able to offer an excellent condition example of Turrentine's Blue Note debut for sale. A true gem
