Description
Up for sale is amazingly clean copy of Hank Mobley ?– Workout. It's an early/original pressing with RVG and the "ear" symbol in the dead wax and the 47 West 63rd Street address on one side, New York, USA on the other.
Vinyl is a (visual) M-. Some paper scuffs and light hairlines.
Cover is M-. Very clean, little to no visible wear
Original inner sleeve is in great condition except for some creases (see photos for details).
VPI cleaned. I re-play-graded this one as the VPI really seems to have gotten rid of some issues that were present before.
Side 1 plays perfectly. One of the best sounding sides of vinyl I've had the pleasure of listening to lately.
Side 2: Track 1 has some very light, but audible, ticks/surface noise in the right channel towards the end of the track. Track 2 has a bit of the same light, but audible, ticks/surface noise, intermittent, mostly noticeable in some quiet sections. Track 3 has a bit of very light distortion that comes in towards the end of the track.
From a collection I recently purchased from an 83-year old record collector. His record shelves had plexi-glass doors in front of them which explains the amazing condition of the sleeves. He also took incredibly good care of the records. Follow my listings for more M-, mono Blue Note LPs I'll be listing in the coming days.
