Description
It's hard to be able to say with certainty which pressing this is, but it looks to be a 1959 first edition stereo pressing from Riverside. This is the only one to have "Stereo" on the cover in the same and about as large typeface as the "Monk" name. The labels look to coincide with the appropriate era. According to Discogs, the back cover seems to be different. This album came with an original clipping from the New York Times which I searched and was able to determine it was from a Dec. 26, 1963 issue? Leading to even more confusion. The jacket has quite a bit of staining and discoloration. there is a tear on the top portion of the spine, though the rest of it is in tact and reads well. The cover seems to laminated. The original paper sleeve has some discoloration and splitting on two sides. The vinyl is straight! No warping. There are some marks. Nothing that looks deep or can be felt, but can certainly be seen. There is a very small clean hole punched throughThe jacket and vinyl. The vinyl plays with some moments of heavier surface noise. No skips or repeats.
So an eBay member just messaged me and brought it to my attention that this can’t be the 1959 version because it promotes other releases that came after 1959. That still doesn’t help me identify which pressing from what year, but be aware. Thank you.
Please see pics. I have done my best to include any examples of blemishes and markings on the vinyl.
