THIS LP , ENTITLED AT LAST, IS HER VERY FIRST ALBUM ON THE BEAUTIFUL BLUE ARGO LABEL FROM 1961. ( ARGOT WAS A SUBSIDIARY OF CHESS RECORDS). AND WHAT MAKES THIS ONE EVEN MORE SPECIAL IS THAT IT WAS RECORDED IN STEREOPHONIC SOUND!!!!!!! IT IS MUCH MORE DIFFICULT TO FIND IN STEREO THAN MONO. YOU ARE BIDDING ON A VERY RARE AND DESIRABLE PIECE OF HISTORICAL MEMORABILIA !!!!!!
COVER GRADE VG+ THERE ARE NO SEAM SPLITS,WRITING , DRILL HOLES, OR TAPE PRESENT!! LETTERING ON THE SPINE IS CLEARLY READ. THERE ARE A FEW SPECS ON THE FRONT WITH VERY SLIGHT COLOR LOSS , BUT HARDLY NOTICABLE AT ALL.. SLIGHT CORNER WARE . TOP SEAM HAS SOME WRINKLING AND BOTTOM SEAM HAS SOME COLOR LOSS. ALL SEAMS ARE STRONG. CLEAN BACK HAS SLIGHT YELLOWING ON OUTSIDE FRINGES. CONSIDERING THIS JACKET IS ALMOST FIFTY YEARS OLD, IT IS IN FANTASTIC CONDITION!!!! ONE OF THE NICEST COPIES THAT I HAVE SEEN IN MY 30 YEARS OF COLLECTING!!!!!!
VINYL GRADE VG+ THICK VINYL PRESSING FROM 1961 HAS SOME SURFACE MARKINGS , BUT NONE CAN BE FELT WITH THE NAIL
THANKS FOR LOOKING! YOUR SATISFACTION IS GUARENTEED. I DO MY BEST TO DESCRIBE MY RECORDS AS ACCURATELY AND CONSERVATIVELY AS POSSIBLE. IF I HAVE MISSED SOMETHING PLEASE RESPOND WITH YOUR QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING. I WILL GLADLY COMBINE SHIPPING FOR MULTIPLE LP'S. GOOD LUCK !!!
