Condition : -

Obtained from a one previous owner collection, the heavyweight pasted sleeve is in great shape. The colours are still rich & vivid & all text is clearly legible, including along the spine. There is some corner scuffing, although no splits/tears. The back panel reveals some minor discolouring and '980' written discreetly in pen, but this is forgiveable. As a nice touch, there is a Mecolico royalty sticker for author's rights still attached on the back, which were affixed during export from the US. Very nice indeed.

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. The all important first issue 'New York USA' address is on both sides & there is a deep groove visible on the second side. The labels reveal some spindle wear by the centre hole.

Vinyl :-

The 'Van Gelder' machine stamp is in the run-out on the first side, & the famous 'ear' etching can be seen in both run-outs. A combination of Van Gelder's sound engineering & Plastylite pressing is well & truly the 'golden age' of highest quality, Blue Note pressings. This one is no different & sounds unbelievably good! The heavyweight vinyl is graded VG as there are some scuffs/hairlines and some faint cosmetic wear when held to the light in a few areas, this does not affect play. This really is a strong VG condition example.
