ATTENTION 1960s JAZZ LP COLLECTORS!
HERE IS AN ORIGINAL 1965 UK PRESSING MONO MERCURY LIMELIGHT SERIES LABEL OF AN ESSENTIAL ALBUM:"CHARLIE PARKER 10TH MEMORIAL CONCERT" INCLUDING DIZZY GILLESPIE,LEE KONITZ AND OTHERS-PLEASE SEE THE PHOTO.
ONE OWNER ONLY SINCE BOUGHT NEW FROM A LONDON JAZZ SHOP IN 1965 AND HAS HAD ONLY A FEW DOZEN PLAYS SINCE THEN ON DECENT EQUIPEMENT AND AS SUCH IS STRICTLY GRADED IN EXCELLENT++++++++ CONDITION/MOST WOULD HAPPILY STATE NEAR MINT.
UNDER VERY STRONG LIGHT THERE ARE A COUPLE OF SMALL WISPY SURFACE MARKS ON SIDE TWO BUT THERE ARE GLEAMING SURFACES.
THE EARLIEST PRESSINGS ARE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND IN ANY CONDITION AND AS SUCH THIS IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO OWN A CLASSIC IN SOLID MONO WITH A BEAUTIFULLY PRESERVED COVER.
PLEASE SEE ALL THE PHOTOS.
THE RECORD HAS BEEN PLAYED ON DECENT EQUIPMENT FROM A LONG TERM COLLECTOR AND CUSTOMER OF MINE OF MANY YEARS WHO WAS ALSO A MUSICIAN AND TOOK GREAT PRIDE AND CARE IN HIS RECORDS. AFTER MANY MONTHS OF THINKING ABOUT IT IS NOW PRUNING DOWN HIS BRILLIANTLY CARED FOR AND IMPRESSIVE COLLECTION BUT HAS ENTRUSTED ME DUE TO MY CARE AND ATTENTION TO DETAIL AS WELL AS BEING A LOVER OF THE MUSIC!
THE PRESSING IS IN MONO:LML 4010 WITH THE "ROUGH TEXTURED LABELS AND THICK VINYL.
VERY CLEAN LABELS WITH NO STAINING,WRITING OR FADING!
THE MONO SOUND HAS A BASS DEPTH AND WARMTH LACKING ON LATER STEREO REISSUES.
I TEST ON EQUIPMENT USING NO FILTERS,MONO SWITCH OR ANYTHING TO "SWEETEN" THE SOUND OR "HIDE" ANY SOUND FAULTS. IT REALLY IS A SPLENDED EXAMPLE.HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE!
THIS RECORD IS HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL POLYLINED INNER SLEEVE.
THE LAMINATED FRONT COVER IS AMAZING! JUST THE VERY SLIGHTEST MILD AGE STAINING AT THE BACK. THERE ARE SOME TINY EDGE CREASES AND THAT IS BEING REALLY STRICT. THERE IS NO WRITING,NO SPLITS,NO MAJOR WEAR,NO SMOKEY OR DAMP SMELL. THE PREVIOUS OWNER WAS NOT A SMOKER. IT IS AN ABSOLUTE JOY TO OFFER THIS ITEM FOR SALE.
COLLECTION IN PERSON CAN BE MADE AT A MUTUALLY CONVENIENT TIME.
I HAVE BEEN A DEALER SINCE 1986 AND LOVER OF JAZZ FOR OVER 50 YEARS.RESPECT ME AND I WILL RESPECT YOU-SIMPLE AS THAT.
