ATTENTION MILES DAVIS AND 1950s JAZZ ALBUM COLLECTORS!
HERE IS AN ORIGINAL UK 1ST EDITION OF AN ALBUM THAT IS RARELY SEEN WITH MOST TURNING UP AS AMERICAN PRESSINGS OR MUCH LATER REISSUES!
MILES DAVIS:"ROUND ABOUT MIDNIGHT".
6 TRACKS RECORDED IN 1956 AND ISSUED 60 YEARS AGO IN 1956 AT A TIME WHEN MANY BUYERS WERE STILL STICKING WITH 78s. IT WAS PROBABLY DELETED WITHIN A YEAR OF ISSUE DUE TO LIMITED PROMOTION,EXPOSURE AND SALES!
THIS IS THE EARLIEST 12 INCH LP BY MILES DAVIS TO BE ISSUED IN THE UK AND IS THE 1ST UK MONO PRESSING ON THE MEGA-THICK VINYL PHILIPS PRESSED "ROUGH TEXTURED" LABELS:BBL 7140 WITH THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE 1L/2L MATRIXES DENOTING ONE OF THE FIRST EVER PRINTED.
ALMOST EVERY COPY LIKE THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN PLAYED A LOT.THERE IS SOME SIGNS OF USE WITH SOME LIGHT SURFACE MARKS AND SOME SURFACE NOISE HERE AND THERE INCLUDING A COUPLE OF MINOR,SHORT LIVED FAINT CLICKS BUT NO JUMPS OR STICKS.PLAYS GREAT!
THIS COPY IS PROBABLY ONE OF THE FEW SURVIVING UK 1ST EDITION PRESSING EXAMPLES IN THE WORLD.
SERIOUSLY AND STRICTLY GRADED AS VERY GOOD++++++++ CONDITION!
THE SOLID MONO MIXES HAVE A DEPTH AND WARMTH THAT IS OFTEN MISSING ON THE "SPREAD OUT STEREO" REMIXES WHICH ARE PROBABLY FAKE STEREO.
THE COVER HAS SOME EDGE WEAR,CREASES,SMALL TEARS AND SOME LAMINATION PEELING BUT NO WRITING OR REPAIRS AND VERY PRESENTABLE FOR 60 YEARS OLD!

DEALERS AND COLLECTORS TRAVEL FOR MANY MILES TO VISIT ME-MOST NOT EVEN ASKING TO EXAMINE MY RECORDS AS THEY TRUST MY VERY STRICT JUDGEMENT AND GRADINGS!
MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE ARE IN POOR CONDITION-THIS COPY IS IN VERY GOOD++++++ CONDITION AND THAT IS BEING VERY STRICT!
The 1950s equipment was often basic with much heavier tonearms than later lightweight pickups.
Vinyl is still the best way to hear JAZZ and always will be!
I TEST ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITHOUT FILTERING OR A MONO SWITCH.
I HAVE PLAYED IT TO CHECK FOR ANY FAULTS.
IT IS STILL FAR BETTER THAN MOST AROUND!
MOST RECORDS ON EBAY ARE IN DIABOLICAL, BAD CONDITIONS ATTEMPTED TO BE SOLD BY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GRADE OR BOTHER TO ACTUALLY PLAY THEM FOR AN ACCURATE DESCRIPTION!
