·       CONDITION:

·       RECORD

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted below, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we grade records under the normal room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)            WE GRADE THE RECORD AS STRONG VERY GOOD+. CAUTION: The vinyl is NOT MINT or NEAR MINT, but is nevertheless in exceedingly nice and clean condition (we do NOT sell records that, graded visually, appear to be unplayable or otherwise played beyond use). There are a few surface marks and abrasions, mostly light, although some may be longer than 1.1 4 inches (roughly 3 cms).

We could not "feel" these abrasions with our fingertip, and we suspect that these abrasions ARE NOT audible. A tiny indent in vinyl on one song is probably only a minor pressing flaw and is not expected to be audible.

(b)            The record has a Rudy "Van Gelder" inscription or his initials (RVG) stamped/etched in the trail-off vinyl. On SOME Jazz labels (Blue Note, Savoy, Prestige, Impulse, Verve…) this stamp signifies highly professional masterings either done - or personally authorized by - the legendary engineer himself.

(c)             The record is apparently pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the very first pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, exceedingly vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from your compact disc!

(d)            PLEASE NOTE: This - of course - is an ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!

·       COVER

THE COVER IS ABOUT VERY GOOD+(+)

The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:

-         Cover has partially split lower seam (2 inches / 5 cm)

-         Cover has partially split upper seam and spine (about 7 inches / 17 cm, each)

-         Cover has some light ring wear (nothing significant)

-         Back cover has some light "friction" dirt/dust spots, probably from rubbing against other record covers. While we did not want to tinker with the integrity of the cover, these spots can easily be cleaned by the buyer by using a mild cleaner or plain eraser.

-         Cover has some tiny, faint writing on its reverse side (an asterisk and a timing written next to one sing in small blue ballpoint pen script).

-         Cover has some minor wear / fraying along the opening edge on the back side.

-         Small quality control stamp is visible on the reverse of the cover

NO OTHER IMPERFECTIONS ON THE COVER:

-         No cut-out holes

-         No cut-out corners

-         No drill marks or indents

-         No stains

-         No yellowing from age
