Condition : -
The pasted picture sleeve has the 'Blue Note 1524' catalogue number printed top left on the back & the original '767 Lexington Ave' address at the bottom, & Reid Miles' facsimile signature is present top left on the front. The cover has survived its sixty years to tell its story with grace. A little faint discolouring & some paper chipping around a few edges is present but there are no splits. A faint price indentation is visible when held to the light but otherwise just some mild ring wear. All text is clearly legible & all in all, this is a very good & very respectable example. These initial first pressings are extremely tough to find in any condition, particularly the sleeves.
The labels have no writing or tears & the UK tax import sticker is intact on the second side. There are spindle marks by the centre hole to highlight past action on the turntable. The deep groove & Lexington address is present both sides. This was released before the label became an incorporated company & registered trademark, meaning there is no 'INC' or 'R' lettering after 'Blue Note' on the labels. There is a distinct flat edge.
The Rudy Van Gelder initials 'RVG' & the 'ear' logo are both etched into the runoff area. The matrices, like the 'ear' are hand scratched. A combination of Van Gelder's sound engineering & Plastylite pressing is well & truly the 'golden age' of highest quality, Blue Note pressings. We really should be putting these in our audiophile store!
The vinyl is incredibly clean with no scratches or anything that would upset play. The quality of heavyweight Blue Note vinyl pressings from this period is unsurpassed & playback is immense, with just the lightest bit of surface detectable during the quieter sections. This is a very pleasing VG++ example. A fine play copy of an ultra rare original & at a more affordable price than a mint one!
