(for complete tracklist please look at picture of back cover)


***


Columbia SAX 2293

1st UK Stereo pressing 1959. Holy grail recording. Includes original i/s.


***


Cover VG+/EX (front/back): some peeling along the open edge, very nice exterior for a 60 years old jacket otherwise, happily crease free corners; back is virtually flawless


Record:

Visually: strong EX, almost like new appearance with two ultra light hairlines probably of dust/removal origin on S1, one more like this on S2.

Audio: VG+ (conservative grading), plays with background surface noise slightly more feelable in the beginnings but still audible in low passages mostly, no hint of a distortion: there's clear full dynamic range sound presentation throughout; there's also only a few (3-4 times) single clicks committed each side with no reason visible
