Description

Extremely rare and possibly unique 2-sided acetate/laquer of Charlie Palmieri and his Orchesta La Duboney (mistakenly titled Dubonnet on the label) on Delta Recording Corp, NYC.
A really cool item, it's a preliminary pressing of Palmieri's late 50s Charanga/Pachanga LP with Johnny Pacheco on flute. As you can see from the labels, the track list is in a different order both sides and there are other spelling variations from the ultimately released version.

Condition: the edge of the metal disc has received a knock and the dent affects the play of the first track on each side to different extents. "Descarga" (side one is tricky to cue up but plays fine - check clip). "Tema" on side 2 track one, is a bit more messed up, with the dent causing the needle to move up and down a lot, it did not bounce on my set up but probably could, and also plays with major clicks.

Apart from that the disc looks pretty cloudy and worn, visually VG-, but as you will hear from the clips, still plays in fine condition considering the age. I have not attempted to clean it in any way, that and professionally fixing the dent may help some more.
