Collector Notes
This pressing features an early Columbia lacquer cut (-1B), indicating a quality early mastering. While not a first pressing (6-eye label), these early stampers are known for strong audio performance and are preferred over later reissues.
Cover Variation: This copy features known early printing variations, including the misspelling of “Adderley” as “Adderly” and reversed track listing order on Side 2. These details are consistent with early Columbia pressings and add collector interest.
Kind of Blue remains one of the most important and best-selling jazz albums ever recorded, with constant demand from collectors and jazz buyers. Clean, well-playing copies consistently perform strongly when priced correctly.
