DAVE BRUBECK QUARTET featuring PAUL DESMOND Jazz At The Black Hawk (1956 US issue of the 1953 8-track mono LP, recorded September 1952 and February 1953 in San Francisco, Los Angeles and Hollywood, with 'deep groove' red Fantasy label & pressed on RED VINYL, front laminated pasted picture sleeve. The sleeve shows just a little light wear with some minor scuffing at the opening & a little age discolouration in places to the unlaminated back, but all text is clearly readable & it is free of any tears or writing. The vinyl too has survived particularly well and, with the exception of one audible scratch on side one that does produce a click, remains in excellent condition with few signs of play. Because of this, we can only grade this copy VG/VG+, although for the majority of the disc it remains EX-/EX. A nice copy of this rare fifty five year old US coloured vinyl pressing at an advantageous price!)
