ATTENTION JAZZ LP AND LONDON LABEL LP COLLECTORS! HERE IS A REAL GEM FROM 1957! THELONIUS MONK TRIO:"THE UNIQUE THELONIUS" RECORDINGS FROM A HIGHLY INFLUENCIAL AND BREATHTAKING PIANIST MADE WITH ART BLAKEY(DRUMS)AND OSCAR PETTIFORD(BASS) IN 1956 IN NEW YORK,USA BY THE RIVERSIDE LABEL-ISSUED IN THE UK ON THE HIGHLY COLLECTABLE AND STYLISH LONDON LABEL. LTZ-U 15071. VERY THICK VINYL. NATURALLY MONO! THIS IS A VITAL RECORD FOR ANY SERIOUS COLLECTION OF JAZZ MUSIC RECORDS-DON'T MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY TO BID FOR A FANTASTICALLY RARE AND HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER LP! THERE ARE A FEW TINY AND FAINT SURFACE MARKS AND A LITTLE SURFACE NOISE HERE AND THERE INCLUDING A FEW SHORT LIVED MINOR CLICKS AND POPS BUT NOT TOO OBTRUSIVE-GENERALLY THE DISC PLAYS VERY NICELY INDEED! NO JUMPS-NO STICKS-NO DISTORTION! STRICTLY GRADED AS NEAR EXCELLENT CONDITION! VERY FEW COPIES SURVIVE, 56 YEARS ON-THE MAJORITY IN THE HAND OF PRIVATE COLLECTORS WHO WON'T SELL! REMEMBER THAT IN 1957,MANY JAZZ FANS WERE STILL STICKING WITH 78s AND MOST COPIES SOLD WERE PLAYED ON HEAVY EQUIPMENT WITH MAJOR DAMAGE!
HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL FULLY LAMINATED COVER WHICH IS AMAZINGLY CLEAN FOR 56 YEARS OLD! NO WRITING,NO RIPS,JUST A STRIP OF SELLOTAPE AT THE FRONT AND BACK LEAD IN EDGE BUT STILL VERY PRESENTABLE!
PLEASE SEE BOTH PHOTOS! £12 STARTING PRICE.POSTAGE:£4 RECORDED DELIVERY TO THE UK EUROPE £6 REST OF THE WORLD £9
Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many JAZZ MUSIC collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.
Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.
The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!
SHARP,CLEAN LABELS!
This is my honest grading!!!
Please see my listening policy below.
I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
