Description
This record, in it's British release on EMBER, was just highlighted on the London Jazz Collector site. Here's the five-year older United States release on ATLANTIC. This was in a sealed plastic bag when I bought it. Being more of a jazz fan than a collector or seller, I opened it and listened to it. The music is very, very good. Check the LJC review for another take. I believe this record has been played only twice, with great care. There's a little crackle on the last two cuts on the second side. That happens, even with new records, doesn't it. There's a single tiny brown spot on the back of the cover at the bottom right and a stamp reading "07" on the bottom left. Maybe those flaws make it "NEAR" mint. There's no cutout hole, clipped corner, or notch. No tape or stickers. Original paper sleeve and plastic bag included.
Records are graded by playing and visually inspecting the vinyl. If the results differ, the lower grade is used.
Records are removed from the cover before shipping to save the seams. Both are packed in a plastic sleeve, bubble-wrapped, sandwiched between cardboard, then packed in a box designed for shipping records.

The following Goldmine descriptions were used for grading:
· NM (Near Mint) ---- A nearly perfect record. The disc looks as if you just got it home from a new record store. Many brand new discs do not meet this standard. The jacket should show no obvious signs of wear with no creases, folds, seam splits or cut-out holes.
· VG+ (Very Good Plus) ---- A Very Good Plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Record surfaces may show some slight signs of wear such as slight scuffs or very light scratches that don’t affect the listening experience. The label may have some ring wear or discoloration but it would be barely noticeable. The jacket may have slight signs of wear also and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation, or corner indicating it was sold at a discount.
· VG (Very Good) ---- Surface noise will be evident, especially in soft passages, but will not overpower the music. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as will light scratches that will affect the sound. Labels and the jacket may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers attached. Ring wear, scuffing, or seam splitting may be present on the jacket. Many of the defects in a VG+ jacket will be more pronounced in a VG one. The jacket will not have all of these problems at the same time.
· G (Good) ---- Good does not mean Bad! A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put on a turntable and will play through without skipping or sticking. But it will have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear. A jacket will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the object.
