Jackie McLean Quartet with Donald Byrd and Elmo Hope 

“Lights Out vol 2 ( Lorraine / Inding)”

Original EP from Sweden on the Metronome label (MEP 235) from the late 50's.

Record: M-
Cover: M- laminated with no splits and no writing.
Rare! 

The EP format was popular in Sweden during the 50's. Almost all US Prestige, New Jazz, Clef and Norgran (and other labels) were pressed as EPs. Sometimes as vol 1,2 and 3 or sometimes they just picked "best of" and released 1 ep. They were released more or less at the same time as they were released in the US. They are all very nice and in most cases laminated. LPs was either imported or repressed by Metronome in Denmark (for the Scandinavian market). The Swedish market is small and sometimes only as few as 100 copies were pressed. Popular artists maybe in 1000 or even more copies.

All are original 1st press if nothing else is stated.
Even if I have 100% customer satisfaction, I know that I can sometime make a mistake. So I have tried to be conservative with my gradings.

Sending records from Sweden is unfortunately expensive (strong Krona, weak $ & £). I don't charge for handling, packing mtrl etc only what I have to pay myself at the post office. On big orders I will chip in and share some of the cost for postage.
 

Buyer pays shipping. IMPORTANT! PLEASE NOTE THAT I AM SHIPPING FROM SWEDEN, NOT FROM THE U.S. EBAY OBLIGES ME TO QUOTE SHIPPING RATES AS IF I WERE SHIPPING FROM THE U.S.! SO DISREGARD THE LOCAL $ 4.00 RATE, WHICH IS NOT APPLICABLE. SEE MY ACTUAL SHIPPING RATES BELOW. Ebay's automatic postage calculater might say that the cost to send a record to Japan is 31$. Again that might not be true because if it is a record with a weight less than 500 grams the cost is only 17$. Sorry that this is confusing but it is really not my fault. The following is what I am going to charge despite what might be written elsewhere on this listing:

Postage and package rates:
I only charge what the Post office charge me. Cost for postage is due to weight and size. I don't charge anything extra for handling etc.

1 EP: within Europe = 8 $, rest of the world incl US = 10 $ (if total package weight is less than 250 grams).

1 LP: within Europe = 15 $, rest of world incl the US = 17 $ (if total package weight is less than 500 grams). Some LPs, with heavy weight vinyl or fold out cover, often have a weight which is more than 500 grams together with packing material. Old Prestige, Clef and Blue Note LPs has often a weight just over 500 grams, when the weight for packing material is added.

1 heavy vinyl lp or 2 - 3 "normal" LP:s : within Europe = 27 $, rest of world incl the US = 31 $. (if total package weight is less than 1000 grams). If you win more than one record I will of course combined shipping as it saves a lot of money!

PLEASE, WAIT WITH YOUR PAYMENT UNTIL I HAVE SENT YOU AN INVOICE!

Please ask for a quote if you buy more than 3 lps.
