Description



























  • THIS IS FOR THE VINYL ONLY. WITHOUT THE SLEEVE
  • I do however have a reissue pressing w/ the 2nd sleeve listed on eBay I can make you a deal on if you buy this


  • THELONIOUS MONK
  • THELONIOUS MONK plays DUKE ELLINGTON 
  • 1956? or 57? or ? Riverside 12-201
  • Dead Wax Side 1: RLP 12-201 A     i 19 
  • Dead Wax Side 2: RLP 12-201 B-1  i 16

This is pressed on very thick vinyl
There are 3 different white label USA pressings that look exactly like this on Discogs. #1)The very rare 1st press. Unfortunately Discogs does not have the dead wax #'s to compare this with. #2) The 1957 2nd pressing with the original front cover. That has different matrix #'s so it is not this one.  #3)An early release in the 2nd sleeve design. No dead wax #'s given so I can't tell if it is this one either.
In summation the best I can tell from Discogs is this is either #1) the 1st pressing or #3) a probably 1957 or 1958 (Discogs doesn't say) reissue in the 2nd sleeve.  I have listed on eBay a blue label pressing of #3) in the 2nd yellow sleeve that appears to exactly match #3). If you are interested in buying this with that I can make you a deal on it if it hasn't sold.
  • CONDITION

VINYL: VG It looks VG+. Side 1 plays a decent VG+ side 2 plays a still enjoyable VG. The vinyl is very thick.


In a generic white sleeve with an audiophile inner 


Tracklist

OF COURSE I COMBINE SALES FOR CHEAPEST POSSIBLE SHIPPING.

NM: Plays as good as new or extremely close with no more than a couple of insignificant defects.

EX:  Plays just short of near mint.

VG+ :  Used but not abused. Will have some audible imperfections.

VG : More background sounds from defects but not enough to make the record unenjoyable

VG-: significant background sound from various defects but music always quite audible above it. 

Cover has some damage that will be noted.
