SPECIAL CHARACTERISTICS
THIS IS A PRECIOUS AND VERY WELL LOOKED AFTER ISSUE THAT WILL BE OF INTEREST TO SERIOUS COLLECTORS
U.S. FIRST PRESSING!
MATRIX ENDINGS ARE 1-AD AND 1-AE
DESCRIPTION OF VINYL
RECORD IS IN EXCELLENT + CONDITION, VERY LITTLE PLAY. THIS WOULD BE RATED NEAR MINT IF IT WERE NOT FOR THE OCCASIONAL CRACKLE.
LABELS ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION,ONLY SLIGHT SPOTTING AND DISCOLOURATION.
COVER IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE ONLY DEFECT IS ON THE BACK BOTTOM SEAM. THE FRONT HAS A NICE SHINE, NOT BLEMISHES AT ALL. THE SPINE LOOKS UNTOUCHED AND THE BACK IS NICE AND CLEAN, WITH LIGHT STAINING AND THE BOTTOM SEAM ISSUE PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED.
HOW TO RECOGNIZE AN AUTHENTIC FIRST PRESSING
1) B-SIDE LABEL SHOWING WRONG TRACK SEQUENCE (FLAMENCO SKETCHES FIRST, ALL BLUES SECOND).
2) DEEP GROOVE PRESSING
3) ORIGINAL COVER WITH CANNONBALL ADDERLEY’S NAME MISSPELLED
4) UNCORRECTED SPEED PITCH
5) MATRIX NUMBER (XSM 47326/47327) IN TRAIL-OFF DEAD WAX ENDS WITH “1”
6) THE NUMBER, WHICH APPEARS ON THE BOTTOM RIGHT HAND CORNER OF THE BACK COVER, APPEARS HAND-PRINTED, USUALLY 2 OR 4. IF THIS NUMBER IS MACHINE-PRINTED, IT IS NOT AN ORIGINAL ISSUE.
7) ORIGINAL VERY FIRST PRESSINGS DO NOT HAVE CBS LOGOS ON TOP OF THE RECORD LABEL. IF YOU SEE THE CBS LOGO, YOU ARE LOOKING AT A 1961 OR 1962 ISSUE THAT IS NOT A DEEP-GROOVE ISSUE, IRRESPECTIVE OF THE MATRIX NUMBER. GOOGLE SEARCH: “COLUMBIA US JAZZ LABELS” FOR USEFUL EXPLANATION.
