Description
Bit of a rare one and the original UK pressing! Matrix stamped on sides VMGT-1600-1B and 1601-1B mono recording. Cover is not in great condition, worn through on spine and various other "dings" laminate holding up pretty well but yellowed on the back. The labels are in very good condition with the deep groove indicative of pressings of this era. The vinyl is dulled and has various scratches etc and plays with some surface noise, pops and crackles but does not get stuck or skips at any point. I have played this on my system using Ortofon 2m bronze on an Audiomods arm which is very sensitive to bad recordings and at no time did I find the music overpowered by the quality of the vinyl, maybe a professional clean would further improve the sound but I don't have access to this locally. Am happy to send to most countries but only using ebay gsp as they will refund if lost or damaged, if your country is not on the list then please message me before bidding, thanks for looking

I acquired it with a few other albums as a job lot and it is not my kind of music but due to it being as rare as hens teeth I though a true jazz fan would like the chance to own an original copy, thanks!!

Just to let everyone know I have just got a new ortofon 2m red as use them for test plays and it has made a great improvement to this albums sound as I was getting a harsh surface noise on left channel with old stylus but this has now gone, must have been a worn stylus and not anti skating wear caused by previous owner as I first thought.
