Description

MILES DAVIS: Sketches Of Spain (CBS, BPG 62327, 1965, LP)
This looks to be one of the early CBS reissues, after CBS became a label in its own right in the UK (having previously been distributed on the Philips label). This has rough-textured labels.
The sleeve is in decent enough overall condition though with a couple of seam splits (the bottom seam split is surface only and does not go all the way through) - see photos - and an age-darkened rear. The record plays at mostly EX but with some light background here and there. A very nice sounding copy with the occasional light background not really being a distraction. Despite the inner sleeve being a bit battered, the record itself has been very well looked after.
Not from my own collection - I'm selling this on behalf of the estate of an old friend. I have play tested it, though, as per description above.
*    *    *    * Records generally have hairline marks from going in and out of sleeves - I do not mention these unless they cause audible noise. All records are play tested unless explicitly stated otherwise. Most of the records I am selling play at "Excellent" or "Very Good" as per Record Collector grading. Any specific defects are otherwise described in the listing. Please look at the photos carefully for condition of sleeves/labels. 
All items won, up to a value of £50.00, will be sent as Royal Mail 'signed for'. If items are bid above £50.00 (or multiple items combine to more than £50), they will be sent as Royal Mail Special Delivery, so that parcels are correctly insured against loss or damage in transit.
****If you win multiple items, please wait for me to invoice with correct postage. Note that postage costs include packaging costs. Where possible, packaging is recycled but sturdy/secure.
Combined postage **for UK buyers only** - 6 single LPs cost the same to post as 1 single LP. Note that if you win items in multiple formats (e.g., an LP and a CD) I cannot combine postage (though I can bundle up 7" records with an LP).
**Non-UK bidders** please note I use eBay's Global Shipping Programme, which means that I cannot amend invoices to combine postage in advance of payment (eBay handles all of this - it is a 'closed box' that I cannot even see inside). However, once paid for, I am able to send multiple items as one parcel and can refund extra postage charged by eBay once delivery is confirmed.
Non-paying high bidders will be blocked from bidding on future items.
*    *    *    * All items are from my own collection unless stated. Most has been in storage for over 20 years. Lockdowns made me wonder why I have multiple copies of records that I will never listen to. There are about 8,000 more items to come from my rambling progressive, jazz fusion, folk, blues, 1950s stereo classical and easy listening, psychedelic, reggae, ambient, spoken word, comedy, railway, field recordings, electronic and occasionally just plain 'out there' collection.
