Hi! You're looking at a great condition vinyl LP and a classic 1963 Blue Note Records album featuring one of the finest recordings by jazz guitarist KENNY BURRELL and titled "Midnight Blue"--the album features STANLEY TURRENTINE on tenor saxophone, MAJOR HOLLEY on bass, BILL ENGLISH on drums, and RAY BARRETTO on conga.  The LP is a 1985 Blue Note Records issue with the serial number BST 84123 and a STEREO issue with Direct Metal Mastering (DMM) and was made in the United States.
This LP is in great condition and the vinyl is in VG+ overall condition and plays very well overall, with a small light scratch in the middle of side two which causes some light tics through the end of the first track and the second track, some slight hairline marks and some surface scuffs that otherwise do not significantly affect play (THIS LP HAS BEEN SOUND-GRADED IN ITS ENTIRETY and Side One plays NM- (Ex) with just two or three light pops); the cover is in strong NEAR MINT- (Ex) condition with a tiny notation of the recording date on the lower right corner of the back surface, a few slight creases on the edges, a slight abrasion on the right center of the front surface and just slight shelfwear otherwise but NO other significant flaws--it's NOT a cutout!  The ORIGINAL BLUE NOTE INNER SLEEVE is also included and in beautiful shape, with small pieces of transparent reinforcing tape placed on the center edges and no other significant flaws.
Please Note:  I CAN ship records outside of the United States but will need to get a weight estimate based on the final PACKAGED weight for this record--I cannot ship for the $4.00 U.S. Media Rate and the quoted International Shipping Rate may differ from the final shipping rate due to packaged weight differences so please wait to make payment until a final invoice is received. Thanks!

Good (G) A record with will play through, but with significant pops, substantial background noise, and possibly intermittent skipping.
