ATTENTION STANLEY TURRENTINE,BLUE NOTE LABEL AND 1960s AMERICAN JAZZ LP COLLECTORS!

HERE IS AN ORIGINAL 1960 AMERICAN PRESSING MONO ISSUE BLUE NOTE LABEL OF AN ESSENTIAL STANLEY TURRENTINE ALBUM:"LOOK OUT!".

ONE OWNER ONLY SINCE BOUGHT NEW AS AN IMPORT FROM A LONDON JAZZ SHOP IN 1960 AND HAS ONLY BEEN PLAYED ON DECENT EQUIPEMENT.

PLEASE SEE ALL THE PHOTOS.

THE RECORD HAS BEEN PLAYED ON DECENT EQUIPMENT FROM A LONG TERM COLLECTOR AND CUSTOMER OF MINE OF MANY YEARS WHO WAS ALSO A MUSICIAN AND TOOK GREAT PRIDE AND CARE IN HIS RECORDS. AFTER MANY MONTHS OF THINKING ABOUT IT IS NOW PRUNING DOWN HIS BRILLIANTLY CARED FOR AND IMPRESSIVE COLLECTION BUT HAS ENTRUSTED ME DUE TO MY CARE AND ATTENTION TO DETAIL AS WELL AS BEING A LOVER OF THE MUSIC!     

THE PRESSING IS IN MONO:BLP 4039 WITH THE DEEP"GROOVED LABEL" DESIGNS.THERE IS THE 47 WEST 63RD NYC NEW YORK ADDRESS AS ONLY ON THE EARLIEST LABELS AND THERE IS THE "RINGED" R UNDER THE E OF BLUE NOTE.

THERE IS THE "RVG" AND EAR LOGO IN THE DEAD WAX OF EACH SIDE.SEE THE PHOTOS.

VERY CLEAN LABELS WITH NO STAINING,WRITING OR FADING! THERE IS A VISUAL AND I REPEAT VISUAL ACROSS THE LAST TWO TRACKS THAT LOOKS AS IF IT WILL SOUND(SEE PHOTO)BUT THIS DOES NOT SOUND AS WELL AS SOME OTHER FAINT,SMALL HAIRLINE COVER REMOVAL SURFACE MARKS ON EACH SIDE UNDER STRONG LIGHT. NATURALLY NONE OF THESE SOUND.

BECAUSE OF THE VISUAL MARK I AM STRICTLY AND SERIOUSLY GRADING THE RECORD AS NEAR EXCELLENT BUT THE "BLINDFOLD" TEST WOULD GRADE EXCELLENT!

THERE IS A LITTLE SURFACE CRACKLE AT THE START OF EACH SIDE AS STANDARD FOR AN ALBUM OF THIS ERA THAT HAD A FEW BUT CAREFUL PLAYS.OTHER THAN THAT IT IS REMARKABLE QUALITY SOUND NOT LEAST TO THE TECHNICAL BRILLIANCE OF RUDY VAN GELDER. THE MONO SOUND HAS A BASS DEPTH AND WARMTH LACKING ON LATER STEREO REISSUES.

I TEST ON EQUIPMENT USING NO FILTERS,MONO SWITCH OR ANYTHING TO "SWEETEN" THE SOUND OR "HIDE" ANY SOUND FAULTS. IT REALLY IS A SPLENDED EXAMPLE.

THIS RECORD IS HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL 1960 PRINTED BLUE NOTE LPs INNER SLEEVE WITH NO WRITING AND BEAUTIFULLY CLEAN! THERE IS A SPLIT DOWN ONE SIDE.AN ADDITIONAL POLYLINED INNER SLEEVE HAS BEEN USED SINCE THE 1960s TO PRESERVE THIS! VERY FEW WOULD HAVE HAD SUCH TENACITY!

THE LAMINATED FRONT COVER IS AMAZING! IT STILL HAVE THE TWO IMPORT STICKERS AT THE BACK THAT MOST WOULD HAVE PEELED OFF.THERE ARE A COUPLE OF SMALL CORNER CREASES AND SOME SMALL EDGE ONES AND THAT IS BEING REALLY STRICT. THERE IS NO WRITING,NO STAINING,NO SPLITS,NO MAJOR WEAR,NO SMOKEY OR DAMP SMELL. THE PREVIOUS OWNER WAS NOT  A SMOKER. IT IS AN ABSOLUTE JOY TO OFFER THIS ITEM FOR BIDS.

I WILL NOT TAKE OFFERS OR END THE AUCTION EARLY. I CANNOT ACCEPT BIDS FROM ABROAD DUE TO THE CONTINUAL GIFT OF BREXIT.

I WILL ONLY POST SPECIAL DELIVERY OR COLLECTION IN PERSON CAN BE MADE AT A MUTUALLY CONVENIENT TIME.

I WILL NOT ACCEPT REQUESTS OF "CAN I PAY YOU IN A MONTH'S TIME WHEN I GET PAID" AS IN THE CASE OF A RECENT TIMEWASTER ON ANOTHER AUCTION.

I THINK I HAVE COVERED EVERYTHING BUT ANY QUESTIONS DO GET IN TOUCH BUT YES! I HAVE PLAYED IT,TWICE INFACT TO TEST IT AND YES I KNOW THIS IS NOT A FIRST PRESSING.

I HAVE  BEEN A DEALER SINCE 1986 AND LOVER OF JAZZ FOR OVER 50 YEARS.RESPECT ME AND I WILL RESPECT YOU-SIMPLE AS THAT.

A REALISTIC £200 STARTING PRICE.YOU ARE UNLIKELY TO GET ANOTHER ONE AS GOOD AS THIS FOR SOMETIME UNLESS YOU ARE VERY LUCKY.
