·    ORIGINAL U.S. PRESSING

·   ORIGINAL “CROWNLESS” BLACK KING MONO LABEL WITH SILVER PRINT AND SMALL (1/2-INCH WIDE) LETTERS

·   DEEP GROOVE PRESSING

· THIS IS THE ORIGINAL, AUTHENTIC, FIRST U.S. PRESSING; THIS IS NOT A REISSUE, AN IMPORT, OR A COUNTERFEIT PRESSING.

· ORIGINAL, THICK CARDBOARD COVER (AMERICAN STYLE)

·   ORIGINAL GLOSSY, LIGHTLY LAMINATED COVER

·   THICK, HEAVY VINYL PRESSING


RECORD: NM with one slight surface mark on Side 2 that does not affect play, still has the original bright mirror-like gloss.  NO spindle marks.  Appears to have never been played - otherwise flawless.

COVER:  NM- thick laminated board with NO ringwear and super clean, NO seam splits except the bottom center, original bright gloss - NO shelf wear, sharp corners, library # written upper left front partially removed.

Side 1: Monster Party/Where The Blue Of The Night Meets The Gold Of The Day/I'm Gonna Lock My Heart And Throw Away The Key/Finishing The Unfinished/Scott's Bluff/Carolina Moon

Side 2:High And Wide/In The Wee Hours/That's My Weakness Now/Please Don't Talk About Me When I'm Gone/Adios Muchachos

Will ship with disc in inner sleeve which is removed from the jacket, as this applies in most cases (except 78s and some 45s without jackets). The record will be outside of the cover so the seams won't split during delivery.


The soundstage on this LP will be rich, with great background and space.  Music will be upfront, full bodied and crystal clear -- the way only vinyl can sound.


These early recordings have special sound quality (tube electronics)


This LP will play great on your turntable and will be a great addition to your collection.

About record grading:

Near Mint (NM or M-)

NM records are shiny, with no visible defects when held up to daylight or equal lighting source. Writing, stickers or other markings cannot appear on the label, nor can any “spindle marks” from someone trying to blindly put the record on the turntable. If played, it will do so with no surface noise.

NM covers have no creases, ring wear or seam splits of any kind.

Very Good Plus (VG+) or Excellent (E)

A good description of a VG+ record is “except for a couple minor things, this would be Near Mint.” Most collectors, especially those who want to play their records, will be happy with a VG+ record, especially if it toward the high end of the grade (sometimes called VG++ or E+).

VG+ records may show some slight signs of wear, including light scuffs or very light scratches that do not affect the listening experience. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are OK. Minor signs of handling are OK, too, such as telltale marks around the center hole, but repeated playing has not misshapen the hole. There may be some very light ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable.

VG+ covers should have only minor wear. A VG+ cover might have some very minor seam wear or a split (less than one inch long) at the bottom, the most vulnerable location. 

Very Good (VG)

Many of the imperfections found on a VG+ record are more obvious on a VG record. VG records have more obvious flaws than their counterparts in better shape. They lack most of the original gloss found on factory-fresh records. Groove wear is evident on sight, as are light scratches deep enough to feel with a fingernail. When played, a VG record has surface noise, and some scratches may be audible.

VG covers will have many signs of human handling. Seam splitting will be more obvious; it may appear on all three sides, though it won’t be obvious upon looking. Someone might have written or it or stamped a price tag on it, too.
