Description

Up for bid is a rare mono promo LP, "Introducing Wayne Shorter." See pictures for song list. This was released by Vee Jay Records (Vee Jay LP 3006) in 1959. Here is some extra info from wikipedia:

Wayne Shorter
(born August 25, 1933) is an American jazz saxophonist and composer. He is generally acknowledged to be jazz's greatest living composer, and many of his compositions have become standards. Shorter's output has earned worldwide recognition, critical praise and various commendations, including multiple Grammy Awards. Shorter first came to wide prominence in the late 1950s as a member of, and eventually primary composer for, Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers. In the 1960s, he went on to join Miles Davis's second great quintet, and from there he co-founded the jazz fusion band Weather Report. He has recorded over 20 albums as a bandleader. Introducing Wayne Shorter is the debut album by Wayne Shorter in the hard bop medium, performing with other jazz greats like Lee Morgan and Paul Chambers.

Interior labels are maroon with a deep groove on either side. There is a small spot on the interior label of side 2 that has been damaged from the removal of a sticker (see pictures). Jacket is VG, with wear and splits on all seams. Nearly the entire bottom seam has split, and has been reinforced with clear tape. There are multiple small splits on the top seam and spine (see pictures). There is wear on all corners. There is an ink stamp on the back in the center of the top area that reads "Disc Jockey Copy" (see pictures). Colors remain bright and the front of the jacket retains a nice gloss. A promo copy of this rare mono press is difficult to find in any condition! Don't miss out of this rare gem!
