Description
Up for auction is Gil Evan Orchestra's Out of the Cool from 1961. This is the original MONO pressing of this iconic record, Impulse A-4. This session was mastered at Rudy Van Gelder's studio, and the label bears "RVG" in the dead wax.
Sleeve: M-, gatefold cover is absolutely pristine: no scratches, no dog-ears, no spine splits, no scuffing, no discoloration, totally shiny and new.
Record: side -1 EX, with a few very light scuffs and two tiny scratches in the latter third of the long first track, "La Nevada"; side - 2 EX, with a few light scuffs and needle trails. These did not cause skipping or popping when I listened; the record sounds amazing.
I am a university professor of music here in the US who inherited this and other records (Blue Note, Norgran, Impulse!, Columbia, Prestige, Fantasy, Riverside, etc.) from a collector and radio DJ a few years back. I am looking to sell off some of these records to collectors/audiophiles who can get more enjoyment out of them than I can.
Thanks for looking.
