SIDE 1 and 2: Very Good (VG+) The vinyl is in very good-plus condition, showing only minor paper scuffs and minimal groove wear from normal play. Most of the original luster remains intact. I played both sides several times, and the record plays through beautifully with no skips or pops, with only occasional light clicks and faint crackle. There is some very mild background noise at times during playback, but overall the audio is clean, strong, and enjoyable.

CONDITION OF SLEEVE: Very Good (VG+) The cover presents beautifully overall with a clean, glossy appearance. There is some ring wear, especially near Miles’ face and trumpet. Corner bumps, shelf wear, and a frayed section along the bottom spine are present, along with some black ink on the back cover. The spines remain approximately 70% intact. Still a very respectable and attractive 1959 cover — tough to find completely clean after all these years.

PLEASE NOTE: Every record we add to the archive or send to our customers extensively cleaned prior to doing so. We endeavor to remove as much dirt as possible from the cover before ultrasonically cleaning the record. Once both these steps are complete, we repackage the restored article in a brand new inner and outer sleeve.

We dedicate vast amounts of time and resources to this process to ensure the customer receives the highest standard of service and product.
