Description
Original Esquire grooved label issue from 1956, 32-058 Original copy of this super rare Sax classic, also featuring the mighty John Coltrane. very hard to find in this condition. Wonderful artwork too, much better than the USA issue.
Firstly the run out groove reads PRLP 7047 A with RVG etched in the wax also with the same on the second side with B replacing A. Original UK issue. Thick vinyl Microgroove pressing.
Vinyl graded VG+ both sides, a few very light hairline scuffs, some light crackle in quieter passages and some very light occasional pops but no skips or faults causing distortions to the sound. Importantly, playtested, the terrific music sounds bright and undiminished. A very playable copy of a rare album.
Sleeve EX-, all edges neat and intact front and back of the flipback really clean and bright. Tiniest bit of laminate lift on the sleeve opening and a tiny bit of creasing near the spine holds it back from being EX+. .. Please see the pictures for more detail.
Postage will be tracked and signed for at the buyers expense, see postage costs, but you will rest assured that every package will be professionally sent in a brand new mailer with extra stiffeners. I run a real world record store and respect customers and collectors as I have the same obsessions too. Thanks for looking, good luck if you've decided to go after this wonderful record. No reserve auction. Bidders with excessive negative or little or no feedback will be cancelled.
