Description

US BUYERS: PLEASE NOTE THAT I AM SHIPPING FROM FRANCE, 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 HEREUNDER. EXAMPLE: ONE ALBUM SHIPPED TO THE U.S. FROM FRANCE COSTS $ 18.00.

BLUE NOTE 1519. "HERBIE NICHOLS TRIO". HERBIE NICHOLS WITH MAX ROACH. ORIGINAL LEXINGTON BLUE NOTE ALBUM. FIRST PRESSING. AUDIO BY RUDY VAN GELDER. COMES WITH ORIGINAL BLANK INNER SLEEVE. HAS EARS AND RVG HAND-ETCHED IN DEAD WAX. THE NON LAMINATED ART SLEEVE HAS THE KAKUBUCHI FRAME. THE RECORD HAS FLAT EDGES WHICH MEANS THAT THIS AN AUTHENTIC EARLY BLUE NOTE ANNO 1955.

ALFRED LION BELIEVED IN HERBIE. AFTER 2 10" ALBUMS WITH DECEIVING SALES HE DID NOT GIVE UP AND RECORDED HERBIE THIS TIME WITH MAX ROACH. AGAIN SALES WERE LOW AND A VERY LIMITED NUMBER WAS PRESSED. THIS IS AN ULTRA RARE ALBUM IN ANY CONDITION, THIS ONE IS EXTREMELY NICE TOO.

THE VERY HEAVY VINYL IS E+ (HAS SOME INAUDIBLE SLEEVE MARKS, OTHERWISE WOULD HAVE BEEN A NICE NM). KAKUBUCHI FRAME COVER: VG+ (THE BOTTOM SEAM SHOWS WEAR DUE TO LONG STORAGE IN A BIN; SOME AGEING ON THE REAR AND AN INITIAL OF THE PREVIOUS OWNER; ONE CORNER BEND). ONE LABEL HAS SOME MINOR AGEING SPOTS.

MY GRADING OF THIS ITEM IS VISUAL WITH PLAYGRADING (RANDOM CHECKS): THIS ALBUM HAS THE VERY DEEP AND ROUND BLUE NOTE SOUND, AS USUAL FOR AN ALBUM OF THIS AGE, NOTICEABLE SURFACE NOISE. ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS ALBUM, VERY COLLECTIBLE. ONE OF THE RAREST EARLY BLUE NOTES; VERY LIMITED QUANTITY PRESSED; EXCITING MUSIC.

VINYL GRADING SCALE: M:PERFECT, NM:NEAR PERFECT, E:NO WEAR, SHINY SURFACE, BUT SOME MINOR BLEMISHES (SLEEVE MARKS OR NEEDLE DROPS OR A SMALL NEGLIGEABLE SCRATCH), VG:VISIBLE WEAR AND SOME DAMAGE, BUT STILL VERY COLLECTIONABLE. I DON'T SELL G(ood) AND P(oor) MATERIAL. + or - to indicate variations on the above. Bidders should be aware that some records issued in the fifties, even if Mint, are not Hi Fi. Sometimes the vinyl or the pressings are low quality, with inevitable background noise. IMHO the absolute quality standard as set by Contemporary Records is seldom, if ever, met by other labels.
