Comments from Allmusic.com: Hal McKusick was a fine journeyman cool-toned bop-based altoist and clarinetist on this 1955 Bethlehem studio date (reissued on CD by Fresh Sound), McKusick is accompanied by guitarist Barry Galbraith, bassist Milt Hinton  and drummer Osie Johnson  on a variety of straightahead tunes including seven originals by arranger Manny Albam. The music is pleasing, light and swinging.

How I Grade

Still-Sealed Mint (SS): When someone says something’s “Mint condition,” this is what they’re talking about. The album is sealed in its original packaging and has never been played.

Mint (M-)(NM): This is the highest grade for records that have been played. The album is in excellent condition and shows no visible signs of wear or damage that will affect sound quality.

VG+: While not flawless, the condition is very good, showing only minimal signs of use. Any visible blemishes should have minimal affect on play quality, though light surface noise maybe present at very quiet portions or between tracks. This is a record that should satisfy all but the most discriminating of collectors. There may be slight ring or cover wear, or minor writing on the cover.

VG: Vinyl may have scratches and/or other visual blemishes, but should play through without skipping or repeating. Light to moderate surface noise and/or crackle may be present, however not overly distracting. Covers may have moderate ring and/or edge wear, cut-outs / hole punches, or a moderate seam splits.

VG- and below: Is it a throw-away?: sound quality is low and the cover may be in very poor shape. We consider any item graded at or below VG- as a LOW GRADE item. We only sell albums rated VG- and above unless a record is so rare that its presence in the collection transcends the poor quality of the vinyl or cover.

RETURNS ACCEPTED: - Communicate through e-Bay mail.

Comments

I have been collecting records since 1953. My first jazz album, 1955.  Some are actually in like new condition, the ones I took to parties, Little Richard, Fat Domino, Bo Diddley, Frankie Lyman, Mickey & Sylvia, not so much. According to my wife I have too many (can't help myself); house is full, shop is full and kids don't want them. e-Bay it is so check back occasionally.

If a record has deep problems it gets deep sixed. If it has a light scratch and it is rare I will offer it but you will know it's condition. I describe as accurately as I can. If it is not as described I will refund your money after I check it on my equipment. I still play them. 

Thanks for visiting. I hope you've found something you like.
