Saxophone, Percussion – Joseph Jarman, Roscoe Mitchell

Vinyl: The vinyl retains some glossiness. It has a number of light/minor marks, but nothing deep or “feel-able”. The record plays through with light surface noise and minor clicks and pops that are noticeable in the quieter passages.
Cover: The front and back covers have significant ring/rubwear. The front cover has a file sticker along the lower left side. There is no writing on the covers and the seams are in tact. The spine has worn down to the cardboard in the middle (approx. 3”). (see photos)
I mail on Saturdays (and sometimes mid week, as well).
Please contact me via eBay with any questions.
Good luck!
