FROM THE BACK LINER NOTES: Although this album is entirely devoted to explorations of the ballad mood, it includes considerable variety. Approach, instrumentation, even tempo does not remain constant here.....On several numbers---among them the rich treatment of Alone Together that first sets the mood here---the unusual front-line combination of flute, trumpet and baritone creates a lush and unique ensemble sound.

BACK WHITE CARD STOCK COVER WITH SOME MINOR RUB WEAR AND GENTLE AGE DISCOLORATION AROUND EDGES. LOWER LEFT CORNER FRONT VERY TINY ROUGH SPOT ON POINT.

VIRGIN SPINDLE HOLE ON A VERY CLEAN AND SHINY BLACK PRESSING WHICH APPEARS TO NEVER HAVE SEEN A TURNTABLE. WITH THE ORIGINAL WAX PAPER INNER SLEEVE.

GRADING & POLICIES: All records are visually graded. Grading indicates state of vinyl (covers noted separately). If I've listened to an LP, note will be made about sound quality. The following is a general overview about grades, subject to any above notations: MINT indicates pristine vinyl without any marks on surface. MINT MINUS may contain one or two very light surface marks from play or sleeve wear under light. If you are a real collector, you'll know that even a factory sealed LP occasionally has some light sleeve or rub marks. Anything in the VG category would contain more than two surface marks or have some other visible signs of ring or hole wear. Rarely do I offer something in the "G" state. If I do, it's usually a rare LP and priced accordingly. Values are assigned according to market availability and rarity, not a price guide.

PAYMENT: PAYPAL is my preferred method for your payment. I like to ship your records out within 2-3 days of payment, so using PAYPAL gets the records to you ASAP and concludes the transaction. Contact me after the auction if your PAYPAL payment or another method of payment will be delayed so I know what's going on. Shipping charge applies to any number of LPs in the U.S. and for up to two records foreign(three or more foreign please contact me for correct air quote). If you purchase more than one record at a time, you can edit the EBAY checkout page where the other discounts (-) or charges (+) signs are in the subtotal column to only pay for one shipping amount.

SHIPPING: All LPs are shipped in a new plastic outer sleeve and with corrugated packing squares in a new corrugated cardboard LP mailer marked fragile. Foreign customers please note: if you want your records insured, you must tell me and pay the additional insurance, otherwise all overseas shipments are sent by airmail with no insurance. THE SHIPPING CHARGE TOTAL CAN BE EDITED ON THE EBAY CHECKOUT PAGE WHERE YOU SEE THE OTHER DISCOUNTS (-) OR CHARGES (+) SIGNS IN THE SUBTOTAL COLUMN.
