PRESTIGE: PRLP-7109 "BAGS' GROOVE" MILES DAVIS and THE MODERN JAZZ GIANTS

Early Pressing MILES DAVIS LP on the PRESTIGE Label

This auction is for an early pressing, mono, black on yellow, Bergenfield, NJ address label, PRESTIGE Records, 1957 release of "BAGS' GROOVE" PRLP-7109, by MILES DAVIS, complete with DEEP GROOVE. The original jacket is made of the older "heavier" cardboard. The album features: MILES DAVIS - trumpet; MILT JACKSON - vibes; SONNY ROLLINS - tenor; THELONIOUS MONK or HORACE SILVER - piano; PERCY HEATH - bass; and KENNY CLARKE - drums. There are actually two different sessions on this album: The first recorded in June, 1954 and the second in December, 1954. A link to a copy of the LP's back with full track list and musicians can be seen by clicking HERE.

The LP is not play graded but visually I would rate it NM- based on Goldmine standards: Disc has retained nearly all of its original luster and looks beautiful. There are no visible scratches but a few very light scuffs and appears well cared for. Minimal spindle marks with some light names written on the labels in red ink. The original jacket also looks fantastic with full gloss intact and very minimal wear, with no writing, marks, or dings. The seams are intact and tight with no seam splits except the beggining of some fatigue on the center of the top edge and lower right corner. Some wear to corners. Back cover is also in nice condition with very light wear with no writing, marks, or dings except a small name stamp and the remains of a label on the upper edge. Record ships with a non-original inner sleeve. No reserve!
