Matrix numbers : RLP 434 1L 1//420T 111 / RLP 434 2L 1//420T 111
1962 UK 1st press jazz rarity on cherished RIVERSIDE label : solid excellent (EX) condition, gleaming, jet black sheen vinyl with earliest 1L/2L matrices, just a few wispy hairlines and extremely faint & totally superficial line scuffs, only detectable with close scrutiny under a bright light - clearly this record has been sparingly played; near mint (NM) condition labels with just a couple of small & very faint spindle trails adjacent to the centre hole on each label; excellent (EX) condition front side only laminated outer sleeve with firm unscuffed edges (just a few tiny nicks and a 1cm scuff on the bottom edge next to the bottom right corner), well defined right angled corners with minimal rubbing, no laminate lifting though there is an 8cm diagonal laminate crease towards the top left corner accompanied by a very light and non-obvious cardboard crease, and all artwork/photos/text remains impressively intact with just a few small reverse side superficial storage marks; terrific audio quality with no clicks, interference or distortion, & any background crackle is at an absolute minimum and barely noticeable - simply put : great tone with crystal clear MONO audio quality and every track making for a great listen. Comes with great condition and original plain white "MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN" poly-lined inner with no edge splits, just a little very minor creasing, and still fully functional.
A brilliant jazz album with Wes Montgomery (guitar), Wynton Kelly (piano), Paul Chambers (bass), and Jimmy Cobb (drums) performing live and in great form. I never tire of listening to Wes Montgomery's inventive guitar virtuosity!
These UK 1st pressings, made and sold by Fontana, are of superior quality to their US counterparts and are now becoming very hard to find, especially in condition as truly impressive as this. POSTAGE COSTS :
For the UK £5 using Royal Mail 1st class signed for ;
for continental Europe £14 using Royal Mail 1st class tracked and signed for,
and for the rest of the world £21 using Royal Mail 1st class tracked and signed for.
I do provide posting and packaging discounts for multiple purchases. I make no profit from postage.
Note that I always insert the vinyl into a new plain white poly-lined inner sleeve in order to protect the original during postage, and separate this from the outer sleeve to prevent seam splits. I use thick cardboard stiffeners and take great care in my packaging to ensure as far as possible that these precious records reach their destination in exactly the same condition as when they leave me.
If you require any further information, including photos, then let me know and I'll do my best to oblige.

A bit about myself : I have been collecting UK vinyl for over 53 years from a variety of sources : my own collection, friends and family, car boot and garage sales, door-to-door leaflets, and even through placing an advert in my wife's shop window! My ebay feedback speaks for itself so rest assured that you are buying from a trusted seller and in the very unlikely event that you are unhappy with your purchase just e-mail me and I will sort out the problem. I offer a "no questions asked" refund policy. If you require any further information, including photos, then let me know and I'll do my best to oblige. There is NO RESERVE on this item. Richard
