Please note the many best pressing Modern Jazz Lps in my ebay store already. Buy any with this and there's no extra postage.
Last offering of this title from the treasure trove!: I found a small pile of unused Esquires, and sorted through them with a bright light to identify the best condition ones, lacking storage damage, and any spindle marks of being played by customers in the shop. No marks to playing surfaces or labels. These are the ones that are like they came out of the factory 68 years ago. Some of these are changing hands for healthy three figures. We combine postage to save you money. Pristine vinyl 1957 Unplayed new Old Stock 1957 Phil Woods & Sahib Shihab on Four Altos. Esquire 32-074 UK 1st Press RVG in the dead wax. Full band is Phil Woods, Gene Quill, Sahib Shihab, Hal Stein - alto saxophones Mal Waldron - piano Tommy Potter - bass Louis Hayes - drums. A very fine lp, mine gets plenty of plays. A pre 1959 US mother sent over by Prestige, and pressed on better vinyl over here. I have this myself, a killer album, with killer trading of licks between that crazily strong front line, and good old fantastic soloing as well. Quill died young, Hal Stein's album of two years before this is ridiculously expensive, vg copies even, sell for hundreds. One review noted:
"although this is a Van Gelder-engineered session, the horns aren't "reverb-enhanced" or the piano's sound "bottled up." Definitely, the best all-alto blowing session I've yet come across (none of the irritating distortion of Rudy's unbearable 3-tenor "A Blowin' Session," on which Griffin, Coltrane and Mobley all sound like buzz saws)."
Record Grading: Near Mint, played near mint without being cleaned (super quality pressing).When we post this to you, we pack in hard card custom made new boxes. For more items of similar interest see our me page. Our ethos is to offer you best sounding analogue only pressings of vintage records. Here is another beauty of that type. We offer massive postage subsidies to overseas buyers on multiple purchases. i.e £1 extra per lp to a maximum of £15, then no extra charge.We pack carefully in custom made hard card boxes. If the appearance or playgrade suggests it requires it, our records are cleaned on a wash and vac machine, using art du son fluid in distilled water. This is already in a new heavy poly outer with antistatic inners added with outer sleeve and records all layered behind each other to prevent splits.
