YOUR SATISFACTION IS OUR FIRST PRIORITY!
From Blue Note Records (BST 84157) this is THE SIDEWINDER by LEE MORGAN, an original (first) US stereo pressing recorded December 21, 1963; playing time, 40:59.
Jacket shows minor shelf wear with a few light stains, no split seams and no bumped corners -- sturdy and attractive (strong EX). Original inner sleeve is present and in VG+ condition.
Labels show a few spindle marks, otherwise about NEAR MINT MINUS. This is a deep groove pressing with "Van Gelder" and the ear stamped in matrix both sides; labels contain "New York USA" and "®" below the "E" in NOTE. .
LP shows a few buffs from sliding in and out of an unfriendly inner sleeve -- not from a needle; play grades about EX+ and better with no distortion even in dynamic passages and even when played at top volume. There are a few clicks that do NOT intrude into the music.
Original inner sleeve is present (VG+); we have housed the wax in high-quality sleeve from MFSL and placed the LP in plain white jacket for traveling and for your long-term storage needs at home.
Certainly a showcase piece, it is also one you'll come back to again and again because it plays beautifully. One solid workhorse of a record! Low opening bid with NO RESERVE!
