Record has been visually graded

 

M:

RECORD: Never Played Sealed Record

COVER:   Never Opened

NM-:

RECORD: Album is in excellent condition and shows no visible signs of wear or damage that will affect sound quality.

COVER:   Very little if any ware

VG++

RECORD: Some signs of being played the vinyl may have light visual marks NO scratches, There could be slight surface sound

COVER:   Slight wear, very faint record or label ring very minor shelf ware the cover may have minor seam splitting

VG+:

RECORD: Obviously been played with noticeable surface marks & the occasional light scratch but record should play without skipping or repeating.

COVER:   Noticeable shelf wear, small tear in seams, possible writing, stains, label or record ring.

VG and below: Let’s be honest: sound quality is low and the cover may be in very poor shape.

I only sell albums rated VG+ and above unless a record is so rare that its presence in the collection transcends

The poor quality of the vinyl or cover, plus: In my terminology Scratches are feeler type and marks or scuffs are just cosmetic and inaudible.

+ (PLUS) / - (MINUS): Slightly up or down in condition as appears in the comments above

History

 

Given that Round About Midnight was Miles Davis' debut Columbia recording, it was both a beginning and an ending. Certainly the beginning of his recording career with the label that issued most if not all of his important recordings; and the recording debut of an exciting new band that had within its ranks Philly Joe Jones, Paul Chambers, pianist Red Garland, and an all but unknown tenor player named John Coltrane. The title track was chosen because of its unique rendition with a muted trumpet, debuted at the Newport Jazz Festival the summer before to a thunderous reception. The date was also an ending of sorts because by the time of the album's release, Davis had already broken up the band, which re-formed with Cannonball Adderley a year later as a sextet, but it was a tense year. Musically, this sound is as unusual and as beautiful as it was when issued in 1956. There's little else to say except that Round About Midnight is among the most essential of Davis' Columbia recordings.
