Description
Barbara Moore - A Little Moore Barbara (CBS SPBG 62839)
Very rare 1st press from UK jazz artist Barbara Moore. This release was her first solo lp and probably her most sought after. She plays alongside Barry Morgan (Drums), Pete McGurk (Bass) and Ray Swinfield (Flute/Alto).
Matrix numbers are:
SBPG 62839 A1
SBPG 62839 B1
Cover is Good +. As can probably be seen in the picture the lamination on the front is peeling a little on the bottom right corner with some small bits missing along the open edge too. Front image has a dusty appearance and there's a small white price sticker top right corner. Bottom left corner has a little wear too. The spine is in excellent condition and there are no splits on the remaining edges.
The rear flipback is generally in good condition. The flipback sections remain glued in position although they look a bit grubby now. The white rear is fairly clean for its age with the odd smudge or grubby mark. Text is clear and there's a nice biography write-up of her.
Record is EX. Clean and shiny vinyl. Has the odd faint sleeve mark only seen under bright light and one slightly more noticeable surface scratch that runs across the last 3 tracks on side two. In great condition though.
Labels are EX+. A couple of light spindle marks on side 1. Otherwise in immaculate condition.

Update: Played the record and the surface scratch mentioned has no discernible affect on the sound quality. Plays probably EX maybe even EX+ with the odd faint crackle to be noted. The sound quality is excellent and there is loads of detail in a record that is over 40 years old!
Update: Added some more detailed pictures below.
