Description

Please read my description carefully before bidding.  I will ship the item worldwide and will accept free return if it doesn't match the listing description.

This one is the first mono, flat edged, and deep-grooved pressing of Gil Melle's GIL MELLE' QUINTET VOLUME 2.  With Tal Farlow on guitar.  Blue Note Records BLP-5033. A heavy vinyl and flat rim version of 10 inches LP.  This is an original issue from Blue Note Records, released in the 50s, not a reissue version of Classic Records or Analog Production.  

With "EAR" etched on the dead wax of both sides. No "R" and no "INC" on both sides.  The records of Blue Note during this time were not recorded by Rudy Van Gelder, thus, there are no "RVG" etched on the dead wax of both sides.  "RVG" will not appear in the dead wax until BLP-5043.  Address on labels: "BLUE NOTE RECORDS 767 LEXINGTON AVE NYC".  

The cover, designed by Gil Melle' himself, is also the 1st version cover with liner note on the back cover.  Address on the back cover is as follows: BLUE NOTE RECORDS, 767 Lexington Ave., New York 21.

Artists: Gil Melle' (tenor and baritone saxophone), Erbie Green (trombone), Tal Farlow (guitar), Clyde Lombardi (bass), Joe Morello (drums).

The vinyl plays NM on both sides.  It still looks bright and shinny under the bright light with no scratch at all. Very Rare in this condition, considering its age.

The cover is NM.  Strong, bright, no split, no crack.  Very nice and very rare in this condition.

The record is play graded as well as visually.  I attempt to grade conservatively, listing all significant flaws. 

My grading is as follows: M (perfectly like new), NM, NM-/VG++, VG+, VG, VG-, G, G-. You will be satisfied.  And I will accept a free return.  Please bid with confidence.

Shipping:

The record will ship worldwide from Bangkok, Thailand, via registered air parcel post.  I will use a professional packing service to pack them secure for a long journey.

Shipping to the Americas and Europe: 20 USD.  To Asia and Australia: 15 USD.
