Description
This item is a preowned numbered vinyl of the avant-garde classic "Evolution” by Grachan Moncur III from Music Matters. Please read the following before placing a bid or purchasing!
This item could be in better shape, and I wanted to disclaim that I originally purchased this used (most likely overpaid) but have only listened to it twice myself. The condition of the vinyl sounds decent for the most part and is perfectly flat. Anyone who has a Music Matters pressing knows how excellent these are. However, there are a few spots that if you had the right ultrasonic cleaner it could potentially take care of some of the pops and condition of the record itself (fingerprints). Unfortunately, I do not have the equipment or time to do this myself, and I am looking to slim down my collection at this point anyway.
I am not a professional grader, and this is just my conservative estimation from when I last listened to the record.
JACKET: NM. Including the original Music Matters bag with it. Corners look great and, as with all MM, the jacket is phenomenal and glossy. This album cover in particular is stunning.
SIDE A has a few minor pops/crackles esp in the quieter parts. Nothing too glaring, in my opinion. VG+.
SIDE B has pops right in the beginning, gets better and then has minor crackles later on. Unfortunate as this is a quieter track. VG-.
SIDE C sounds fantastic, crisp and clean. Tony sparkles and Lee Morgan comes through excellently. VG+.
SIDE D has frequent pops in the beginning and at the end during the bass solo. VG.
The record comes very well kept by a jazz/vinyl enthusiast, from a smoke-free home. Please message me if you have any questions. The records are stored in Mofi Inner Sleeves and the gatefold in a deluxe oversized sleeve from Sleeve City. For the duration I’ve owned the album, I stored the records on the outside of the jacket.
