Description
CECIL TAYLOR JAZZ UNIT: Cecil Taylor At The Café Montmartre (Fontana, SFJL928/888 602 ZY, 1969, LP)
Recorded in Copenhagen in 1962 and released in various countries in 1963. It looks as though it got this, its first UK issue, in 1969. But why do the labels state a 1958 publication date? Whatever, a superlative record.
Sleeve is a strong VG, though with a 1cm split on the opening end of the top seam. Unless you knew it was there, you probably wouldn't have noticed it - I didn't for years! See the photos. The record plays mostly at EX, though with some very light background audible in the very quiet parts. Not a distraction. The labels have some age spotting - see photos. Overall, a very nice copy of a very nice record.
* * * * Records generally have hairline marks from going in and out of sleeves - I do not mention these unless they cause audible noise. All records are play tested unless explicitly stated otherwise. Most of the records I am selling play at "Excellent" or "Very Good" as per Record Collector grading. Any specific defects are otherwise described in the listing. Please look at the photos carefully for condition of sleeves/labels.
All items won, up to a value of £50.00, will be sent as Royal Mail 'signed for'. If items are bid above £50.00 (or multiple items combine to more than £50), they will be sent as Royal Mail Special Delivery, so that parcels are correctly insured against loss or damage in transit. If you win multiple items, please wait for me to invoice with correct postage. Note that the postage costs stated include packaging costs. Where possible, packaging will be recycled but sturdy/secure.
Combined postage *for UK buyers only* - 6 single LPs costs the same to post as 1 single LP. Note that if you win items in multiple formats, (e.g., an LP and a CD), these have to be sent as multiple parcels (though I can bundle up 7" records with an LP).
*Non-UK bidders* please note that I use eBay's Global Shipping Programme, which means every item won has to be packaged and sent separately so combined postage is not possible.
Non-paying high bidders will be blocked from bidding on future items.
* * * * Unless stated otherwise, all items are from my own collection. Most has been in storage for nearly 20 years. Lockdowns made me wonder why I have multiple copies of records that I will never listen to. There are about 8,000 more items to come from my rambling progressive, jazz fusion, folk, blues, 1950s stereo classical and easy listening, psychedelic, reggae, ambient, spoken word, comedy, railway, field recordings, electronic and occasionally just plain 'out there' collection.
