I Use The Goldmine Guide To Grade My Vinyl
I Won’t Grade A Record As Mint Unless It Is New/Sealed
I Won't List Any Records That Are Not At Least VG Grade
Near Mint (NM or M-)
A nearly perfect record. A NM or M- record has more than likely never been played, and the vinyl will play perfectly, with no imperfections during playback. Many dealers won't give a grade higher than this implying (perhaps correctly) that no record is ever truly perfect. The record should show no obvious signs of wear. A 45 RPM or EP sleeve should have no more than the most minor defects, such as any sign of slight handling. An LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits, cut-out holes, or other noticeable similar defects. The same should be true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves, etc.
Very Good Plus (VG+)
Generally worth 50% of the Near Mint value. A Very Good Plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Defects should be more of a cosmetic nature, not affecting the actual playback as a whole. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are "OK". The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable. Spindle marks may be present. Picture sleeves and inner sleeves will have some slight wear, slightly turned-up corners, or a slight seam split. An LP cover may have slight signs of wear, and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation, or cut corner. In general, if not for a couple of minor things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint.
Very Good (VG)
Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound. Labels may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached. The same will be true of picture sleeves or LP covers.
This is actually a studio album that was put together by Granz as a recorded (and supervised) jam. The line-up is first rate, and has a large alto and tenor saxophone section, fronted by Charlie Shavers on trumpet and backed by a solid rhythm section.
Basically, this is along the lines with one of Granz' Jazz At The Philharmonic sessions. Here are the tracks:
A Jam Blues 14:39
B Ballad Medley 17:21
C What Is This Thing Called Love 15:48
D Funky Blues 13:26
A and B are LP #1 and C and D are the second LP. If you find this set in VG condition the sound quality is superb. As can be seen from the track times each song is an extended rendition of a standard, with the obligatory ballad medley. Funky Blues is a Johnny Hodges composition, and the Ballad Medley is comprised of the following: All The Things You Are, Dearly Beloved, The Nearness Of You, I'll Get By, Everything Happens To Me, The Man I Love, What's New?, Someone To Watch Over Me and Isn't It Romantic?
The line-up is a front line featuring Charlie Shavers on trumpet, accompanied by an alto sax section comprised of Johnny Hodges, Charlie Parker and Benny Carter, and a tenor sax section comprised of Flip Phillips and Ben Webster. The rhythm section was led by the Oscar Peterson Trio (Peterson on piano, Barney Kessel on guitar and Ray Brown on bass), and J. C. Heard on drums.
