Description
Donald Byrd/Ernie Wilkins Top Brass Savoy 12044 mono Red label deep groove
Donald Byrd, Joe Wilder, Ernie Royal, Idrees Sulieman, Ray Copeland (t), Hank Jones (p), Wendell Marshall (b), Kenny Clarke (d) Recorded 1955
Red label with deep groove both sides. "RVG" and "X20" in the runouts both sides. "Savoy Record Co., Inc., Newark, N.J." address on back cover. No printing on spine.
Record looks VG and plays a bit better at VG to VG+. Both sides have a fair number of surface scratches that are not deep or wide but they do cause ticking and light surface noise. Not a clean copy, but record plays without distortion and music is enjoyable.
The cover is G.
The front cover has heavy wear and pieces of slick torn away. As seem common with Savoys, most of the laminate is missing. The back cover has heavy wear with staining and stamps. Top seam is taped and split all the way across. Spine is taped and split app 8 inches. Spots of heavy wear and denting at the corners.
