CONDITION
NEW PHOTO ADDED..ACTUAL ITEM
Brief Info: A traditional jazz album, often mis-sold as ‘progressive’ which is isn’t. It does feature however, two rock legends in Paul McCartney and Brian Auger and for completists is a somewhat obscure album. Rare on the wonderful Marmalade label and beautifully recorded. Not seen or offered often and for fans of Barber and trad-jazz, this is a supreme example that will prove near impossible to find better.
Cover Grade and Format: NEAR MINT..(A TERM I SELDOM USE): a single fully laminated format. Printed and made in England by MacNeill.
Lamination – Front & Back: UNMARKED... KEPT IN PLASTIC COVER..HANDLING HASN'T BEEN ALLOWED. COLLECTORS QUALITY..LOOKS LIKE IT WAS MADE YESTERDAY..MAY HAVE BEEN IN A TIME WARP..
Right Edge(s), and Type: Clean, mostly sharp with minimal wear and guaranteed untrimmed. Any thickening or burr traces very small and minor. Record enters on this edge.
Spine and Text: Solid, straight barely any compression, the ends gently tapered in manufacture. All text is perfect and unworn under the solid and uncracked laminate.
Corners: Any tip rubs tiny and faint, all retain excellent to near mint shape.
Cover Summary: A very strong all-round example of this elusive late 60’s cover, one that will prove very difficult to find much better. This beautiful item should please most-all collectors..( the cover is so bright and clear, the raindrops look almost realistic)
The Inner Sleeve: MINT(-): a Polydor lined inner that looks almost like new.
