Description
They say there's no such thing as a "Mint" record but - if not, this is as close as it gets. The 3 Sounds, Feelin' Good, Blue Note 4072 with RVG, Ear, 1st Pressing Review copy. I'm betting my play grading was the only time it's ever been played. These folks have quickly beome one of my very favorite small jazz groups and this LP is no exception. Absolutely wonderful sound and absolutely delightful music. If you're not familiar with them, make no mistake, this is the real McCoy. Real, delicious, straight ahead Jazz. Gene Harris was one of the premier practitioners of the art of Jazz piano in his time. His regular group included Andrew Simpkins on Bass and Bill Dowdy on drums. Few groups in my experience, played with such a deep "sympatico" and understanding of one another. A true delight. Jacket is likewise very close to mint with only the very slightest dulling in the laminate visible only under strong light. Nice, Bright & Clean. No tears, writing or seam splits.
The tunes:
When I Fall In Love, Parker's Pad, Blues After Dark, I Got it Bad (and That Ain't Good), Straight, No Chaser, I Let A Song Go Out Of My Heart, It Could Happen To You and Two Bass Hit.
The designation "Review Copy" generally assures that an LP is an early 1st pressing.
Over the next few months I will be selling selected gems from my personal collection. I will begin with some of the more modest offerings in order to build my feedback and then progress to rarer items. While I may be new to Ebay I am NOT new to record collecting. All LP's offered by me have been owned (40+ years) since new - most have been played no more than 2 or 3 times. Note: All are guaranteed or your money back! So please bid with confidence.
All records are strictly graded according to GoldMine standards with one exception. I believe GoldMine has too large a gap between M- and VG+. I have added VG++ which, I believe, is MUCH better that VG+ but not quite M-. Play grading is done on a VPI HW-19 Mk-IV with SME-IV Tonearm and Shure V-15VxMR cartridge. All records are wet vacuum cleaned on a VPI HW-16.5 record cleaner using Record Research Labs Super Vinyl Wash and Disk Doctor brushes. I WILL NOT offer for sale any LPs with groove-damage distortion. I will not offer any graded below VG+.
SPECIAL NOTE RE: DEEP GROOVES. (Blue Note Only) Beginning with BLP-4061 very few first pressings were deep groove. Many second pressings were however. "Deep Groove" does not refer to the playing area but to a groove stamped in the label area. (Apologies to those who already know this - but I've had many questions).
All LP's will be packaged in sturdy cardboard mailers designed for the purpose and will include extra cardboards top and bottom. LP's are in new poly lined sleeves and original sleeves are included as well. LP remains in new sleeve but is packaged outside of the jacket. Both LP & jacket are encased in an outer poly sleeve. This is considered the safest way to avoid damage to LP and jacket.
