Description

BLUE NOTE VINYL ORIGINAL PRESSING!
Seldom seen in UK auctions is this beautiful ORIGINAL PRESSING of McCoy Tyner's post-bop classic, Tender Moments (Blue Note BST 84275), recorded with a nonet including Lee Morgan & Julian Priester among others. This is one of the original Liberty pressing variants of this title (the specific label variation is in the Discogs link below). I have fully play-tested the vinyl, so my grading is based on how the record actually sounds, as well as how it looks.
Vinyl is graded in very solid Excellent condition - there is a nice quiet soundstage throughout the music, which is one of the louder & punchier Liberty recordings I've heard on vinyl. VAN GELDER is present in the vinyl deadwax. Visually, there are just one or two tiny blemishes which don't affect the audio. A fine example!
The original Liberty cover is strictly graded in Very Good+ condition, due to light ringwear on the front & back, corner/spine dings & wear (visible in photos), and the name & address of what I assume to be the original owner of the vinyl - US artist Tom McKinney, who is documented online as having a jazz vinyl collection :-)

Note that I separate the vinyl from the outer sleeve for postage to prevent seam splits. I use thick cardboard stiffeners and take great care in my packaging to ensure as far as possible that these records reach their destination in exactly the same condition as when they leave me, and in the way I'd like to receive them.

All items are play-tested throughout, and I strive to be comprehensive and fair in grading descriptions. If you require any further information, including photos, then let me know and I'll do my best to help.
