Jacket
Jacket is nice. Light scuffing front and back. Bottom edge wear. Corners have wear. Back bottom paper loss. Some staining. No splits. Original inner sleeve not included.
Jacket grade: VG to VG
Vinyl
Visual grade: Light blemishes can be seen. No scratches seen, no scuffs. Where the jump is, there s a mark that can be seen. Visually this is a stunner
Play grade:
Side 1
Track 1 - just a few pops/clicks, well behind the music here. Not consistent, here and there. It clears up about 3 minutes in. One jump heard around 4:40, right towards the end.
Track 2 - Strong start. Some pops here and there. Clears up about a minute in and its nice..clean, clear of anything. Wow...it plays great here. A very clean track
Track 3 - Great , great track Clear, clean.
Track 4 - Another stellar track Quiet piano at beginning...clean and clear. Phenomenal track throughout.
Track 5 - A very light pop can be heard for 45 seconds, then goes away. The track ends strong.
Side A Grade: VG- to EX...without the jump, it s grades VG to EX...sounds great
Side 2
Track 1 - Just phenomenal As the sound lowers, and the bass parts play, some pops can be heard but they are low, behind the music for sure. It goes away once that bass part plays. Listening to it at this point for any pops or clicks and nothing. Finishes strong.
Track 2 - Another strong track. Minimal noise, you almost can t hear any fuzz or pops. Piano with bass behind it just sounds wonderful and really highlights how great the record sounds. A few pops towards the end.
Track 3 - Great sound at beginning, piano with quick bass. Can hear both nicely without any distractions. Clean sound. It continues strong, just wonderful. Plays at NM here. Scat drums here are prominent with no noise in the way. Fantastic. Finishes just as strong. Stellar track
Track 4 - Bass intro with backing drums sound amazing. Clean, clear. Music is prominent, you can t hear any distortion or background noise. Again, plays NM here. Prominent bass part sounds great. One or two pops can be heard, but any of it is spaced out nicely. Nothing consistent...again, just one or two pops here. Ends nicely.
Track 5 - Quick piano beginning here with just a few pops here and there. As this part plays on it sounds nice, clean and clear. Heard two pops, then just the music. Heads into the prominent bass part with drops of piano and it is clean here. No background noise or fuzz. Ends just as strong.
Side B vinyl grade: EX to EX
Overall grade VG to VG that one jump keeps the overall grade down . Most would say side B plays at NM. We are being conservative here.
