Description




New, factory sealed test pressing of the Music Matters/Blue Note audiophile release by Art Blakey, The Big Beat (22697).  Test pressing is still sealed inside the trademark perforated Music Matters outer poly sleeve (with hype sticker).  Poly sleeve has come open a bit at the bottom, but still obviously sealed.   Cover is generic with an identifying sticker.  An amazing audiophile release, with this test pressing providing the ultimate analog listening experience for this landmark album.  Please take a moment to check our other listings for similar items, all in exceptional condition – thanks!





Our photos are of the actual listed item - we don't use stock photos.  All LPs are packaged securely, with wax separated from cover to prevent split seams, unless the LP is sealed or you request otherwise. USPS Media Mail shipping is $4.50.   Paypal accepted, and, yes - we're happy to combine items to save you on shipping costs. Payment is expected within three days of auction's end, please, or sharp pins will be placed in a voodoo doll that bears your ebay id. Thanks for lookin'!
