PRINCE BILLY MAHDI WRIGHT You Got Dat Wright LP RARE PRIVATE PRESS CHICAGO JAZZ

$

38

Up for sale in this auction is an extremely rare privately pressed Jazz LP from Prince Billy Mahdi Wright entitled, "You Got Dat Wright". Still in it's original shrink wrap! Only slit open and well cared for to keep it around the jacket for its entire life. Rare and extremely hard to find privately pressed Chicago Jazz of the highest quality! Released by Raenii as RA-037 in 1982. This particular copy has a playable warp that mostly affects the first two tracks of each side. Sadly this is noticeable enough to note. The vinyl is fresh, glossy and looks to be rarely played but the warp must be noted. I was able to play the record without it skipping any portions, but the needle does jump around quit a bit and makes a little bit of noise when it bounces on the outer rim of the record, where the warp is most noticeable. The inside tracks play absolutely immaculately with no jumping needle, and it sounds fantastic with no noise present at all. Clean center labels. I have rated the record at G+ because of this warp. Without the warp I would rate the record somewhere between VG++ and EX. Jacket is in VG to VG+ shape conservatively with the shrink wrap still affixed! Sticker attached to the front of the shrink denoting the artist and some information about the album (Visible in the photographs). The most detrimental damage to the jacket is some minor and slight stubbing/creasing on the bottom right corner of the jacket that has caused a light seam split there. There is some light residue which I believe could be removed on the middle of the right side of the jacket as well. Without these two defects this jacket would easily rate out at EX as the rest of the jacket is in fantastic shape with strong corners and seams.

Please see photos and/or ask questions before bidding.

• SS  Still Sealed 
• M  Mint - Perfect in all ways.
• M- Mint Minus - Near perfect, most likely and unplayed record
• NM- Near Mint Minus - Extremely well cared for record. Probably a record that's been around for some years but extremely well looked after, but still not quite new enough to call Mint.
• VG++ Very Good Plus - As close to NM as it comes.
• VG+  Very Good Plus - Very close to like new with only superficial signs of use that do not affect playability. Only records stored and used with care will grade out to VG+.
• VG Very Good - A used, reasonable copy that plays. There will be obvious signs of wear and the possibility of some light surface noise between tracks or during quiet passages, but still nice and playable.
• VG- Very Good Minus - A record with significant wear and marks. Records graded VG-usually have some noticeable surface noise.
• G+ Good Plus. 'Good' means pretty beat up. From here on down (Fair, Poor), we're talking about extremely beat up records.
