Description
The Gill Melle Quartet, Vol. 3 featuring Lou Mecca, 10" LP issued on Blue Note 5054. Disc condition is VG+ with occasional light tics. Bright, crisp sound with very little, if any, wear. Jacket is VG++. I would grade it Near Mint if it didn't have two wrinkles in the front middle right portion of the cover (see scan). Sharp corners, no split seams. Rear jacket is clean and white with only the slightest evidence of ring wear. The "ear" is engraved in the trail-off. Deep groove, with "Blue Note Records 767 Lexington Ave NYC" just inside the deep groove. 33 1/3 Microgroove Long Playing outside the groove.
Grading is based on Goldmine standards:
M = Mint (unplayed or factory sealed)
NM = Near Mint (one or two tiny, inconsequential flaws)
VG+ = Very Good Plus (handled and played infrequently or carefully; light scuffs, visual scratches that do not affect play)
VG = Very Good (visible signs of handling, light surface scratches, groove wear, spindle trails on label; audible surface noise - a well-played record by a responsible owner)
G = Good (good really means no good. Many scratches and annoying surface noise, heavy groove wear; basically a wall-hanger)
Intermediate grades of the above (VG-, G+, VG++) may also be used.
