PLEASE READ ENTIRE LISTING BEFORE BIDDING

ARTIST: Lester Young

ALBUM: Blue Lester

LP/COVER: G/VG

LABEL: Savoy (MG-12068)

MADE IN: USA

COMMENTS: RVG in deadwax. Vinyl has lots of noticeable scratches that caused audible surface noise and plenty of crackles/pops but no skips on my player during complete playtest. Surface noise was most apparent during quiet parts and music still came through clear. In other words, this is definitely a copy for someone who doesn't mind clicks/pops--which are present throughout--but on the other hand the music wasn't overpowered by the surface noise during complete playtest. It is, however, graded G (my second to lowest grade--my lowest grade is reserved for basically unplayable records) so expectations should be accordingly low. The cover has general scuffing/discoloration on the back, light tearing, shelf-wear and some corner bending.

ALL LPs ARE VISUALLY GRADED UNLESS STATED OTHERWISE

I AM HAPPY TO COMBINE ON SHIPPING. IF YOU ORDER MORE THAN ONE ITEM, PLEASE WAIT FOR INVOICE.
