JAZZ ROCK EXPERIENCE - J.R.E.
Rare and highly sought after 1970 UK 1st pressing of this jazz classic on scarce DERAM NOVA label, SDN 19
Matrix Numbers :
Side 1 ZAL-9816 P-1W stampers 1 and C Side 2 ZAL-9816 P-1W stampers 1 and U
A classic album featuring top jazz artists Raffael Waeber (guitar), Kenny Schmidt (drums), Bruno Spoerrir (saxophones and multivider), Hans Kennel (trumpet and multivider), Nick Bertschinger (Wurlitzer-piano), and Hans Foletti (bass). Formed in 1969 this was their only officially released UK album - and a real treat it is too. Unfortunately when released in 1970 it sold in very small quantities and that, along with the quality of the jazz musicianship, makes this a highly sought after album by jazz collectors.
The appearance of the vinyl is excellent+, and it's hard to believe that this record is some 46 years of age. Both sides have a gorgeous sheen and it's only under a bright line where a few very small paper thin hairlines can just be detected. It seems that this record has only been played a few times...gorgeous appearance.
Each label is excellent+. All writing remains perfectly defined. There are just a couple of faint spindle traces on each label which I have tried to show on my photos.
The front side laminated, outer sleeve is excellent. Just a small 3cm strip of scuffing/discolouration on the bottom edge, some slight rubbing on the corners and a small nick on the reverse side adjacent to the spine and 5cm from the bottom corner. There is a hint of grubbiness on the reverse side close to the spine edge, though this could probably be tidied up.
The quality of the audio is again excellent+. No clicks, no "pops", no skips, no interference, no distortion - even when played loud and/or on the higher frequencies. Just great tone and clarity throughout. Perhaps the odd sound of background static...nothing really. The whole album is a joy.
The tracks are :
Side 1 :
1. LISTEN HERE
2. ODE TO BILLY JOE
3. BLUES NO BLUES
Side B :
1. SHAM TIME
2. STREET PEOPLE
3. CRAZY HORSE CHIEF
Comes in original Deram poly-lined inner, with no tears or splits and still fully functional. Excellent again!
If you require any further information, including photos, then let me know and I'll do my best to oblige.
If this record interests you then take a look at my other listings for more 50's, 60's and 70's classic vinyl.
A bit about myself : I have been collecting vinyl for more than 45 years and have amassed a huge collection covering a varied genre, but mostly of 1960's and 70's origin. Most of my records were originally bought by myself for my own collection, but over the years I have embellished my collection by buying records from a variety of sources : friends/acquaintances, car boots, auctions, and even through putting up a "vinyl wanted" notice in my wife's shop! I never intended selling any of my records but now I am retired and a combination of space requirements (caused partly by duplication) and a need to help fund my retirement has prompted me to "rationalise" my record collection and sell many of my much loved gems.
My ebay feedback speaks for itself so rest assured that you are buying from a trusted seller and in the very unlikely event that you are unhappy with your purchase just e-mail me and I'll sort out the problem. I offer a "no quibble" refund policy.
On the subject of postage, I take great care in the packaging of all items, using a proper vinyl cardboard mailer along with at least two cardboard stiffeners. I take great care in removing the record from the outer sleeve in order to prevent sleeve damage in transit and I always insert the vinyl, outer sleeve and inner into a clear plastic sleeve, thus adding further protection.
For this item postage & packaging will be Royal Mail 1st class : UK £3.00, continental Europe £6, and Rest of the World £9. However, for items selling for more than £50 to non-UK buyers (and selling for more than £100 to UK buyers), I insist upon "tracked and signed for" postage, which will add a further £2-5 onto postage costs, dependent upon location. So, please...do NOT pay before I have invoiced you. I do discount post & packaging costs for multiple purchases. I do NOT profit from postage.
Good luck with your bidding! Richard
