Description
Seldom seen in UK auctions is this first European pressing of Curtis Fuller's hard bop classic, Blues-Ette (SA 6022). One of those late '50s jazz records which would now cost a four-figure sum if it had been cut by Blue Note ;-)
All the requisite characteristics of this pressing are present, as per the Discogs link below. I have fully play-tested the vinyl, so my grading is based on how the record actually sounds, as well as how it looks.
Vinyl is graded in Excellent condition, with no discernible scratches or marks (just a couple of barely visible hairlines with no audio impact), and very little background noise.
The flipback cover is strictly graded in Very Good+ condition, due to some slight ringwear on the back cover (in photos) - cosmetic only with no impact on the structure of the sleeve.

Note that I separate the vinyl from the outer sleeve for postage to prevent seam splits. I use thick cardboard stiffeners and take great care in my packaging to ensure as far as possible that these records reach their destination in exactly the same condition as when they leave me, and in the way I'd like to receive them.
All items are play-tested throughout, and I strive to be comprehensive and fair in grading descriptions. If you require any further information, including photos, then let me know and I'll do my best to help.
