Description

Artist: THELONIOUS MONK

Title: Brilliant Corners

Label: Riverside

Catalogue #: RLP 12-226

Condition Sleeve/Vinyl: VG- half split bottom partial split top, damage back edge yellowed back/VG- I played the record through with NO SKIPS. Visually there are lots of scratches but nothing too deep. There are pops/crackles mixed throughout, at its worst the noise is even to but does not overpower the music. Some tracks are better than others but at it's best there is still background noise Side 2 probably plays better. As a softer album the noise is more noticeable but it is still listenable to me. It is pretty amazing how bad these older records can look and still sound pretty good! This would be a candidate for a "wood glue" cleaning as that can improve rougher records. This is NOT A record to play on an audiophile set up since they might pick up the flaws more but it is a way to listen to a great album for less money than a better copy would be.

GRADING:

Grading is done visually under a strong light. WE DO NOT PLAY GRADE. Our vinyl grading is based on the Goldmine standard and is as follows:

NM: This is our highest grading. Record should look unplayed, shiny, glossy, no visible marks. A darn perfect record

VG++: Darn near close to NM

VG+: Record may have a few minor marks or surface scuffs. A RECORD THIS GRADE SHOULD BE ACCEPTABLE TO DJ

VG: Record will have light scratches, noticable marks, and surface noise may be apparent. A RECORD THIS GRADE MAY OR MAY NOT BE ACCEPTABLE TO DJ

VG-/G: This darn record is rough/Darn this record! A RECORD THIS GRADE IS NOT A DJ COPY

All of our records are shipped flat rate. There is no additional charge if you buy more than one record. Due to increases at the post office the new rate for overseas is a lot more but flat rate now applies to international orders. In order to save money it is wise to purchase multiple records!
