MILES DAVIS + 19 - Orchestra under the direction of Gil Evans
'Miles Ahead' 1957 First UK pressing on Fontana TFL 5007
This is the rarer album with the original soon-to-be withdrawn sleeve. Davis didn't want a white woman on the cover so it was changed to a picture of Miles blowing.
Laminated front cover; flipback rear sleeve; includes original inner sleeve
This was Davis' first collaboration with Evans since 'Birth of the Cool'
CONDITION
Record VG The musical sound quality is superb but there are often background light crackles especially on side two. Just a couple of light clicks.
Cover VG+ These unlaminated covers are usually battered but this one is in very good condition with stubbing to two corners; some slight discolouration/marks to the rear and a small ripple to the paper to the rear, but otherwise in outstanding condition for its age. Please see images.
Original inner sleeve in VG- condition - tear in one side of inner sleeve
