Description

CHRIS McGREGOR & THE CASTLE LAGER BAND

JAZZ/THE AFRICAN SOUND

ORIGINAL 1963 South Africa pressing. Quite simply one of the world's rarest jazz albums. Absolutely impossible

                to find. Many years before his rare UK Polydor and Neon albums this ridiculously rare South African only

                pressing was issued. Please note the album is graded strictly! VG is NOT trashed!

                PLEASE ALSO NOTE NEW POSTAGE RATES, PLEASE DON'T BID UNLESS YOU AGREE

catalogue number: Gallotone/New Sound NSL 1011

tracks:  side 1:  Switch/Kippie/Eclipse At Dawn

            side 2:  Early Bird/I Remember Billy/Now

STRICT GRADING, bid with confidence.

condition:

            record: VG (Please note, this LP is PROPERLY graded! VG is NOT at all trashed!

                               Bear in mind you are also bidding on one of the rarest jazz albums in the world!

                               This album has a few surface marks and some general hairlines/bag scuffs.

                               None of these affect play at all, there are NO jumps, the album plays above VG standard

                               with some light background noise in places and some occasional crackles, overall a very

                               decent quality level. There are quite a few spindle marks but both labels are clean with no

                               rips or writing. STUNNING!)

            sleeve: VG  (This is a non-laminated flipback sleeve. Incredibly delicate and impossible to find in any

                               condition, this one is properly graded and superb.

                               The key thing is that this delicate sleeve is FULLY intact despite showing signs of wear.

                               The front is clean with some general creasing and a small and light 8mm label tear in the

                               top right corner, very minor and not spoiling the look of the sleeve.

                               The spine is partly readable, probably 60% readable. There is some light wear and rubbing

                               but fully intact.

                               The back of the sleeve just has some general creasing and some light grubbiness, otherwise

                               clean and of course fully readable.

                               All edges show signs of wear but are all FULLY intact. The opening edge is actually quite crisp.

                               There is no writing on the record or the sleeve.

                               A one-time chance to own this mega rarity, you won't be disappointed at VG! STRICTLY GRADED.)

 

record sent in strong mailer with card stiffeners in for added protection. Record is sent packaged separate to sleeve

                        and in a poly sleeve.
