Description
THAD JONES The magnificent … VINYL LP (Japan) Blue Note GSK8109/BLP 1527 (1979 – Quality Japanese pressing of 1956 album. One of the most distinctive trumpet players of the hard bop era, Thad Jones was also a respected composer and arranger. He was an important part of Count Basie and Charles Mingus ensembles before recording this stand-out album for Blue Note in 1956. Accompanying musicians on this LP were Billy Mitchell, Barry Harris, Percy Heath and Max Roach.) [original write-up]
Record Grade: EX to EX+
(Looks to be barely but on one side there's some ultra-fine scuffs which come up under very strong light.)
Cover Grade: EX (or better)
(Great cover - no bends, no splits, no shelf wear, no dings. Japanese language insert is only VG+ due to age / humidity browning. Obi is all good. But there's a very light touch of humidity browning the the white back. Nice cover over-all.)
Nice copy.
FREE SHIPPING TO AUSTRALIA (registered post on $20+ items)
INTERNATIONAL BUYERS NOTE: Import taxes are the responsibility of the buyer. Please be aware of these costs before bidding. (International Postage terms: see below) Posted with vinyl outside of sleeve to prevent sleeve splits in transit. Packed in solid cardboard. Japanese pressings are usually heavier packages.
IMPORTANT: All records graded carefully under strong light.
I have a long standing good reputation for grading and I use
the UK grading system which includes EX grades. I am used to
strict Japanese grading standards. If a disc is graded EX you
will not receive something that should be VG+. On the off chance
that happens, please contact me and I will sort it out.
International Postage:
These discs are generally aimed at Australian buyers,
but I have a lot of experience posting internationally.
International postage will be an $ AU 30 flat rate .
(I'll cover the difference, including tracking etc., and if actual postage
does happen to come in lower I'll refund the difference back.)
If you would like to combine international postage on multiple items
please wait for an invoice.
NOTE: I am going to be selling my own collection of clean
Japanese pressings with obi's and other discs this year.
I have issues with storage because my wife and I have been
relocating between Australia and Korea.
Vinyl is visually graded only. My sound system is still in storage in
another city.
Grading note: Very clean near mint records may sometimes have tiny
specks of dust or very small ultra thin fabric strands (which can sometimes
be mistaken for marks) on the vinyl, which come from the inside of
inner sleeves. Both of these will likely be removed by the stylus on first play.
If I can, I send items out in anti-static inner sleeves to try to minimize
this.
