Description

Delve into the haunting melodies of Roland Kirk with "The Inflated Tear" on vinyl LP, a seminal piece from the iconic jazz musician's discography. Originally released by Atlantic Records in 1968, this album is an essential addition for enthusiasts of post-bop and jazz classical genres. The LP is a later pressing reissue and repress edition, indicating its status as a significant release in Kirk's career and a sought-after collectible for vinyl connoisseurs. With SC 1502 on the cover and SD 1502 on the record labels this helps to identify that it is not a first pressing. It does state that it is a CSG Stereo NEW PROCESS COMPATIBLE on front label. It does have the letters PR included in the etched matrix to help determine the exact pressing. There is some slight static crackle throughout with maybe a couple of pops but there are absolutely no skips!!! This pressing is not as loud as an original pressing but also not as expensive!


The record spins at 33 RPM, delivering the full depth of Kirk's musical genius. The album features the artist's distinctive saxophone play that has been praised for its emotional depth and technical brilliance. This United States-produced vinyl captures the essence of the era and showcases Kirk's influential style, making it a must-have for any serious vinyl collector or jazz aficionado.


This item will be shipped in a heavy duty cardboard mailer with the record inside a new poly lined inner sleeve, along with the original inner sleeve and cover protected by a polyethylene outer sleep. Please see all the pictures to help determine the overall condition and feel free to message with any questions.
