Description
We like to listen to our records over here – we opened this one – played once to check for imperfections – hand and ultrasonically cleaned it, then re-sleeved with new, upgraded sleeves and placed the record in a poly outer sleeve until time of shipment.
So, not QUITE new, but almost, dare we say BETTER?
Record and sleeve are Near Mint (NM).
All records are shipped extremely safely, with the full force of my OCD, using mostly recycled materials from years of working in records.
Limited 180gm vinyl LP pressing. From the first bars of the immediately recognizable ‘Alamode’, this album is an explosion of beauty. This first sextet iteration of Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers includes a young Wayne Shorter (tenor saxophone), Lee Morgan (trumpet), Curtis Fuller (trombone), Bobby Timmons (piano) and Jymie Merritt (bass). The band ferociously pushes the pace with each track, leaving no prisoners in their wake.
