Donald Byrd – Byrd in Flight ?– BLP 4048 – Blue Note Ear – 47 W. 63rd – with Hank Mobley

Record Condition: (graded visually)
NM / VG+ / VG / GOOD
Sides A:  Has minimal surface scratching and scuffs. Scratches are superficial and do not break the surface, no deep gouges or “feelers”. Record two gradual, sloping warps.  These warps are not abrupt and do not affect playback in a way that is noticeable to me.  If the warp was not present I would grade this record as “VG+”. 
Sides B:  Has minimal surface scratching and scuffs. Scratches are superficial and do not break the surface, no deep gouges or “feelers”. Record two gradual, sloping warps.  These warps are not abrupt and do not affect playback in a way that is noticeable to me.  If the warp was not present I would grade this record as “VG+”.
