Description

   Artist:  Sonny Rollins
Title:  Self
Label:  Blue Note BLP 1542
Mono/Stereo: mono
Info:  Rare 1st pressing.  Flat edge record and frame lines on cover.  767 Lexington address on both labels.  RVG and ear mark.

Record condition: VG- visually but plays much better!  Shows a lot of marks and scratches, a few are deep.  I recently listened to this again in it's entirety.  The whole album plays very nicely with just light background noise at times, never is this a burden on the listening experience.  There is no distortion.  There is one skip toward the end of side 1, this is by far the worst thing to report.  Expect a little surface noise but still a very pleasurable listen!

Cover:  VG-  Not terrible but has some issues.  Tape on top and bottom seam.  Some wear, small tear, and writing on front.  Discoloration and staining on back.  S  See photos.

Labels: some discoloration

I am an avid record collector and all albums are sold from my personal collection.  I have cared for my collection meticulously and all albums have been stored on shelves with outer sleeves and out of sunlight.  I am a strict grader and stand by all of my listings with a 100% money back guarantee.  If you find my grading or description to be inaccurate you may mail the album back and receive all costs of original shipping and buying price.  I do not pay return shipping unless significantly not as described or damaged.  If you have any questions do not hesitate to ask.  Thank you and good luck!


All international orders over $150 must be shipped via registered mail, unless another agreement has been made.  The fee is $14.  This includes a tracking number, good to the point of destination.   I am sorry for this but I have now a few packages lost in the mail, this is the safest way for the buyer and the seller.

Record Grading Scale:


NM THE RECORD IS IMMACULATE, NEARLY PERFECT WITH THE SURFACE RETAINING FULL GLOSS AND NO SURFACE SCRATCHES


NM- THE RECORD SURFACE RETAINS A HIGH GLOSS, PERHAPS ONE OR TWO EXTREMELY FAINT MARKS, STILL EXTREMELY CLEAN 


EX THAT PLACE RIGHT IN BETWEEN VG++ AND NM-


VG++ THE RECORD RETAINS MUCH OF ITS ORIGINAL SHINE, FEW LIGHT SURFACE MARKS AND OR LIGHT SCRATCHES MAY BE NOTED ON FAIRLY CLOSE EXAMINATION


VG+ THE RECORD STILL RETAINS SOME SHINE, SURFACE MARKS & SCRATCHES MAY OCCUR BUT ARE LIMITED AND TEND TO BE MODERATE TO LIGHT.  RECORD WILL PLAY VERY WELL WITH VERY LIGHT SURFACE NOISE MOSTLY HEARD DURING A QUIET PASSAGE.


VG  AVERAGE USED RECORD FROM HEAVY ROTATION, MAY HAVE STARTED TO LOSE ORIGINAL SHINE, SOME OBVIOUS SURFACE MARKS AND/OR SURFACE SCRATCHES WHICH MAY CAUSE SURFACE SOUNDS, ESPECIALLY IN SOFT PASSAGES


VG-  THE RECORD HAS BEEN PLAYED SEVERAL TIMES, THE VINYL MAY APPEAR DULL, MAY HAVE LOTS OF TINY MARKS OR SURFACE SCRATCHES WHICH MAY BE FELT, SURFACE MARKS MAY BE HEAVY AND SURFACE NOISE MAY BE NOTICEABLE THROUGHOUT


G  RECORD MAY HAVE OBVIOUS WEAR FROM HEAVY ROTATION, SURFACE MARKS & SCRATCHES WHICH CAUSE SIGNIFICANT SURFACE NOISE AND CAN BE FELT
