Description

Classic Records makes a really impressive reissue.  They charge a pretty penny for them and if you’ve ever seen/heard one you understand why.  They are painstaking reproductions of the original records and to the casual observer may be mistaken for pristine original pressings.  The covers are made from heavy cardboard stock and are very glossy, the print is crisp and clear; the vinyl is heavy (200g I believe) and sounds beautiful.  Even the labels might fool you, they have the deep groove pressed into the vinyl like the old records of the 50’s and 60’s.

 

This MONO copy of Charlie Rouse’s Bossa Nova Bacchanal is in mint condition.  I bought it new and played it under 10 times for sure.  This is a unique album in that it showcases Rouse in a very different setting than you might be used to.  guitarists Kenny Burrell and Chauncey Westbrook play acoustic guitars almost exclusively and they are joined by drummers/percussionists Willie Bobo, Potato Valdez and Garvin Masseaux.  Really cool stuff!

 

Labels:  EX- (there are a few minor factory defects, looks like the label is bubbling slightly on side one.  It came like this and hasn’t progressed since I got it years ago)

 Jacket: M

Vinyl: M

 

I am selling a number of my jazz records, mostly Blue Note Japanese pressings, 60’s pressings and Classic Records audiophile reissues.  Check out my other listings!
