I am selling off my entire Pop, Rock and Roll, Jazz and Surf record collection that I have been collecting for over 42 years. Up for bid is a sealed copy! I bought the entire series in 2004 and so this is the original edition and still sealed and never open! Warm analog sound!
Bill Evans Trio: Portrait in Jazz RTI Record Technology Incorporated AJAZ-1162 A/B/C/D Analogue Productions: Near Mint/Near Mint Vinyl is super clean brand new and plays Near Mint played only by me once! The only other flaws would be minor superficial scuffs/hairlines from taking the record out of it's inner plastic lined sleeve. Analogue Productions pressings are known for their fantastic fidelity and the piano and bass sound AWESOME! Cover is super clean and still looks brand new with super nice gloss. I bought this brand new and only played this once. Original plastic lined paper inner sleeves are in excellent condition. I bought the entire collection when it first came out.
"Bill Evans' recordings almost always received good to excellent sound, and the Analogue Productions reissues are no exception. While I don't own the original releases, the 45 rpm reissues clearly better, even after VTA adjustments, the later OJC reissues or the earlier 33 1/3 rpm Analogue Productions releases. The 45 rpm reissues are more musical and transparent; instruments have greater three-dimensionality and frequency extremes, especially lower octaves, exhibit greater resolution and impact. Get them before they're sold out!" Myles Astor, Positive-Feedback Online, Issue 34, www.positive-feeback.com
Bill Evans made two albums in 1959 that had a profound impact on jazz history — Kind of Blue with Miles Davis and this debut disc by Evans’ first permanent working unit. The fluidity and interdependence these three developed forever changed the face of the piano trio, introducing new notions of shading, balance, and poetic lyricism, not to mention the superhuman virtuosity of the tragically short-lived bassist Scott LaFaro.
I am selling off my entire Pop, Rock and Roll, Jazz and Surf record collection that I have been collecting for over 42 years. If you're a record collector and audiophile, the cover condition is not the important part. It is the fact that the vinyl are in super clean VG+ (almost Near MINT) condition! Warm analog sound! Note that I have conservatively graded everything. In other words, if a record is graded VG+, it is more than likely closer to Near Mint.
Condition: I grade according to Goldmine standards. That means a VG+ vinyl will be just that, an LP that is in beautiful condtion! I am very picky when it comes to grading and grade to Goldmine standards. I absolutely hate it when dealers ameliorate the condition of the vinyl!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Especially when I am the buyer!! All my LP's have been stored in my house upright on a shelf in an air conditioned and dry environment, meaning no warping, staining or mildew!
Shipping: Shipping in the US will be via USPS Media Mail $8 and will be mailed in a sturdy LP mailer.
