Description

About this issue:
767 Lexington Ave., New York 21 at bottom of cover.  Center label has 47 West 63rd New York 23.  Deep groove, RVG, etched "ear" in dead wax.  Strong center label, spindle hole is strong.  B in circle on side 2.

Jacket
Jacket is in nice condition.  Scuffs seen on front.  Back is much cleaner.  Lower left corner creased.  Upper corner creased.  No splits, although at upper left corner beginning of a split.  Light top/bottom edge wear.
Jacket grade: VG 

Vinyl
Visual grade:  Both sides are clean, many would call this a NM record.  No scratches, no scuffs, no marks.  Just gorgeous!

Play grade:

Side 1 
Track 1 -  Strong out of the gate.  As it breaks down to the piano part, just gorgeous with no background noise.  A strong track, no issues playing up to the end.

Track 2 - Another strong start. No background noise at all.  A cluster of pops heard about 1:30 into the song then disappears. As the sound volume winds down towards the end, a very clear sound with no noise.  Ends very strong.

Track 3 - Beautiful start, still cannot hear anything in the background.  It drops down to the bass solo and, again, super clear.  Another strong ending.  A very clean, clear track.

Track 4 - A quiet beginning and you can hear just faint ticks but they disappear.  Stays strong through the very low part with the sax playing.  Sporadic ticks at this low part, nothing overpowering.  Ends nicely.

Track 5 - Great, strong beginning to the track.  Plays nicely with no background noise. A gorgeous track here, all parts are clean, free of any noise.  A stunner!

Track 6 - Clean, strong track from the start.  Two successive pops heard, then nothing.  10 seconds later, another pop, then nothing.  Ends strong.

Side 1 Grade: EX+

Side 2
Track 1 - Starts with some pops/clicks heard 30 seconds into the track.  Sporadic throughout this beginning part. They disappear about 1:30 minute into the track.  The track plays nicely here, breaks down to piano solo and it's gorgeous.  Throughout the remainder of the track, it's clear and clean.

Track 2 - Beautiful start to the song, no background noise at all.  Quick piano part just stunning here. Trumpet kicks back in and it remains a strong track.  Plays very strong to the end.  No background noise heard during this track.

Track 3 - Strong track at beginning.  Plays nicely through towards piano solo. This solo has no noise behind it.  Just stunning.  During all of the break downs here, no noise is heard.  These parts are clear and rich. A very strong track here!

Track 4 - Plays great.  A quick song and it plays very strong.  No noise heard.

Track 5 - Starts nicely, a quiet start with nothing heard in the background at the start.  About  a minute in, just faint ticks can be heard, very faint.  A few very light pops here and there.  As the song plays, you can hear them, but they are faint.  The music overpowers them here.  It ends nicely and that background noise disappears 30 seconds before the end.

Side 2 Grade:  EX

Overall grade  EX    Many would call this NM-. We are being conservative here.

Where did we acquire this record?
In February 2024, we were hired by an individual in Charlotte who inherited these records from their father.  He was somewhat active in the local radio scene,
some of these have radio stickers on the cover.

What's in this collection?  About 250 records, including LPs and 10" jazz records.  Take a look at just a sampling of the artists included:
