The vinyl is like new. It looks new, it sounds new.

Vinyl graded as   NM       (No groove damage and a whisper quiet background and deadwax... no unwanted noise, just pure music).     

Labels graded as   NM

Sleeve graded as   VG   (The sleeve has no surface ink loss or disc impression, scuffing to the corners and edges. There is some minor creasing at the mouth and corners of the sleeve)  see the pics.

Grading 

MINT:   The piece it is describing is Sealed or undamaged in any way. unquestionably perfect.
(This classification is reserved for perfect unsealed items, and the contents of undamaged sealed records,  - it must be beyond doubt - "as new") - Rarely, if ever  used by me... it is too subjective and open for dispute.

NEAR MINT.     The piece it is describing is unsealed, but shows no significant sign of deterioration and looks as it was when it was new.
EXCELLENT  (VG+)    The piece it is describing shows some slight signs of deterioration, use or slight wear. 
VERY GOOD:    The piece it is describing has obviously been used, but has been well looked after, displays no significant deterioration, just normal wear.
GOOD:    The piece it is describing has been used so much that it has noticeably deteriorated, but with only minor blemishes ...  Good is still Good.

I do not sell below this playback grade unless the label is in high demand and short supply.

FAIR:    The piece it is describing is still usable but has not been cared for properly and displays obvious signs of deterioration.
POOR:    The piece it is describing will function properly, but shows signs of significant damage or deterioration.
BAD:    The piece it is describing is unusable, missing or damaged beyond repair and does not function as intended.

All gradings are to be read in conjunction with the item description, and the high resolution images of the actual item being sold.

Postage is always at cost.

I will do whatever it takes to minimise postage costs on multiple purchases.

Bob Barnard

Barnard's playing is notable for his big, rich sound and the consummate ease of his flowing solo lines. Although his name was made, and his fame spread, through his forceful playing in the traditional jazz style this is by no means the extent of his huge talent.

Born into a musical family, Bob Barnard began playing trumpet partly because the family band (led by his mother Kath Barnard) needed a trumpeter, but also because he had heard and was deeply impressed by a record of Muggsy Spanier. Barnard gained experience playing dance music but listened eagerly to records, notably those by his major influence, Louis Armstrong, and also to popular Australian jazz bands of the 40s, including that led by Graeme Bell. During this period and on into the 50s, Barnard had a day job, in a bank, but played extensively, touring with bands including the one led by his brother, Len Barnard. In 1957 he played in Sydney with a small group led by guitarist Ray Price. Back in Melbourne, he continued to play as a semi-pro, making occasional records, such as The Naked Dance with a band led by his brother. In 1957 Bell called him with a job offer in Sydney and, although the gig failed to materialize, Barnard later joined Bell's band. This led to a tour of his home country, and a visit to New Zealand and New Guinea alongside pop singer Frank Ifield. In 1963, Armstrong came to Australia, and Bell's band greeted the visitor at the airport where Barnard played briefly with his idol. In 1971 Barnard formed a band for an EMI Records date which resulted in 16 Jazz Greats, and three years later he formed his first band. The band played in and around Sydney and in 1976 went to the USA for an appearance at the Bix Beiderbecke Festival at Davenport, Iowa, where they were a huge success. After 10 years, the band's popularity waned slightly and this, allied to the death of a key member, trombonist John Costello, motivated Barnard into cutting down to a quartet. Barnard toured extensively during the 80s and on into the 90s, playing in the USA and UK as well as in southeast Asia and various European countries. He has worked with numerous leading jazz musicians, including Ruby Braff, Peanuts Hucko, Bob Wilber, Kenny Davern, Dick Carey and Milt Hinton, recording albums with the latter pair. He and his brother, Len, also made two fine albums for Sackville Records issued under Ralph Sutton's name, Partners In Crime and Easy Street. The groups that Barnard formed for recording sessions and other dates varied from quartets to 9- and 10-piece bands and he has also recorded with strings. In the mid-90s Barnard worked on an album, partially funded by the Australian Council for the Arts, on which he celebrates the music of Australian composers. With what Barnard sees as a decline in interest in traditional jazz in his homeland, the end of the 90s saw him planning to spend more time in Europe and the USA. Barnard's playing is notable for his big, rich sound and the consummate ease of his flowing solo lines. Although his name was made, and his fame spread, through his forceful playing in the traditional jazz style this is by no means the extent of his huge talent. This would seem to lie rather in his lyrical mainstream ballad playing that emulates, without any hint of copying, the players he most admires, including Bobby Hackett, Braff, and, of course, Armstrong. Barnard has also composed a number of songs, including "Black Stump Stomp", "Smackarooney" and "Rainbow Hill", an attractive ballad he included on a 1995 album recorded during a visit to New York.
