COUNT BASIE

Live at the Sands (Before Frank)

SEALED limited numbered edition 180 gram Vinyl 2 LP set. Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab MOFI MFSL 2-401. Stereo. COVER & VINYL: MINT still sealed, never played, gatefold cover.

Numbered limited edition # 001936.

Numbered, limited edition 180-gram gatefold double LP

Live big-band album recorded during the Count's 1966 warm-up sets for Frank Sinatra in Las Vegas

Mastered from the original master tapes and pressed at RTI, MoFi's analog version of Live at the Sands (Before Frank) gives you a dead-center, eighth-row seat at the famed Sin City club. Renowned for its sonic clarity, transparency, crispness, and punch, the record is now tremendously enhanced, with improved tonality, a deeper soundstage, correct balances, and lifelike presence. Each horn occupies its own space, and Basie's transfixing piano — a focal point throughout — resonates with gorgeous detail and impeccable pacing. The collective's energy almost demands to be measured with an SPL meter.

Recorded January 26-29 & February 1, 1966 in the Copa Room, Sands Hotel, Las Vegas

GRADING. Grading is visual only unless otherwise stated. I go by Goldmine standards and try to be conservative. I will play grade on certain items only - it is just impossible for me to play grade everything I put on EBAY. MINT means factory sealed, never opened or played. NM is opened but in visually brand new, out-of-the-packaging clean condition. NM- is not NM! Its a grade above VG++ and below Near Mint - it does not imply perfect. In my terminology Scratches are feeler type and Scuffs are just cosmetic and usually inaudible.

DISCLAIMER. Due to the number of frivolous returns which were unwarranted, and due to the nature of sound recorded products that can be easily copied, there will no longer be a free return policy. I will charge a $10.00 return fee for all returns - this amount will be deducted from the Paypal refund of the returned item. If item is truly defective the entire purchase amount will be refunded as long as the item is in the same condition as it was sent.
