Description

This record was found in an estate with many 78 RPM in the Jazz genre, big band, bop, and similar styles.  This one was found in a 12" binder.  Blue Note 4, with the "YBW" - Yellow Blue White - label, and the 235 7th Ave, NYC address on the label. This features both Albert Ammons and Meade "Lux" Lewis.  Side A is Albert Ammons performing Chicago in Mind, and Side B includs both artists performing Twos and Fews.  This is the ORIGINAL ISSUE, released in 1939.  THE SHELLAC IS VERY CLEAN AND LOOKS QUITE PLAYABLE.  There are only a few very faint scratches, unfeelable, and 1 or 2 more visible but still unfeelable scuffs, over both sides, with the large majority of the surface being clean shellac with visible grooves.  I will visually grade this as VG++, recognizing this is an 80+ year shellac and I grade these differently than vinyl LPs.  With a similar surface in vinyl (clear grooves seen but a few very light scratches seen), I would be more conservative and grade it VG+ or in the range of VG+ to VG++.
