Be sure to look at my other auctions!  I have many great titles for sale this week.

Format: 12" 33rpm lp
Artist: Jackie McLean

Title:A Fickle Sonance

Label/Catalog #: Blue Note BLP 4089

Mono/Stereo: Mono

Details:  1st pressing. NY USA labels, RVG, Ear. Comes with a Blue Note inner sleeve. This lp has been cleaned on a Degritter ultrasonic cleaner.


Record condition:  Visually VG but plays fantastic! Both sides show many light marks and scratches, none are deep enough to feel. Play graded in full. Both sides begin with some light crackle, but soon fade into a fabulous listening experience. Most of track 1 side 1 plays VG+. The rest of side 1 plays EX or very close. "Subdued", one of my favorite McLean ballads, plays nearly free of background noise. Almost all of side 2 plays VG++/EX, only the mentioned crackle during the opening rotations. This makes an excellent play copy, audio grade is guaranteed!

Cover:  EX  Superb! Nearly perfect. Slight wear on back cover toward top, perhaps done at the time of manufacturing. The rest is close to like new, incredibly clean cover.

Labels: See photos
