Description
- Artist & Title: Al Haig Trio - Al Haig Trio
- Label & Cat #: 1954 Esoteric – ESJ-7 *Jazz Series
- Vinyl Grade: Very Good (VG) play graded *vinyl displays numerous superficial spindle and scuff marks, with Side 1, Track 1 having a skip jump. Otherwise light and intermittent background surface noise throughout, but typically subdominant. Record can definitely be listened to and enjoyed
- Cover Grade: Very Good (VG) *bottom seam is 90% split while top seam is split 4" on rh side; thumb print on opening edge, price sticker on back; some air bubbles and a couple gouges also on back
- Notes: One of three albums that pianist Al Haig led in 1954 before slipping away into obscurity for the next 20 years. The bop pioneer is heard swinging 13 jazz standards, accompanied by bassist Bill Crow and drummer Lee Abrams. Few surprises occur in this straightforward and concise set other than the inclusion of the Dixieland standard "Royal Garden Blues," but it does give listeners a good example of Al Haig's abilities.

GRADING STANDARDS: (M) Mint: Record and cover appear absolutely perfect in every way. Grade is seldom used, even with sealed albums where the record itself can only be assumed to be mint.
(NM) Near Mint: Vinyl is shiny with no obvious signs of wear and plays perfectly with no audible imperfections. Cover is close to perfect with minor signs of wear or age just becoming evident.
(EX or VG++) Excellent /Very Good ++: Record or jacket has a minimum of audible or visual imperfections. Vinyl has been handled and played very carefully. Light paper scuffs and/or spindle marks may be visible with no appreciable lessening in sound quality. Covers show very minor signs of handling and wear.
(VG+) Very Good Plus: Record displays light scuffs, spindle marks or very light scratches that may create some noise disturbances, but don't affect one's overall listening experience. Jacket begins to show more prominent signs of storage wear and aging.
(VG) Very Good: Defects are more pronounced with visible signs of handling and playing. Surface noise is evident upon playing, especially during soft passages and a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Covers may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached, although none of the flaws should be overwhelming.
(G) Good / (G+)Good Plus: Vinyl will have scratches and visible groove wear. Record plays without skipping, although noticeable surface noise or ticks will be heard. Jackets have even more pronounced defects such as seam splits, tape, writing, ring wear, water damage or other defects.
