This album also comes with the original printed insert "26 Years of Blue Note" insert. Pristine copies of this classic Jazz album can fetch over £400!!!

*PLEASE NOTE I HAVE PRICED POSTAGE AS SIGNED FOR/TRACKED AS I WOULD PREFER TO POST THIS WAY INCASE OF ANY ISSUES, IF THE WINNING BIDDER WOULD PREFER STANDARD POST I WILL OF COURSE REFUND THE DIFFERENCE. AND LIKE EXPLAINED AT THE BOTTOM, TERRITORIES OUTSIDE EUROPE MIGHT COST A LITTLE MORE. GOOD LUCK!
Sleeve Condition – VERY GOOD+ – The cover is in great condition considering it's age. It is a nice sturdy hard card sleeve, and shows very little in the way of shelf wear. There's a little rubbing on the edges and spine and only one or two very insignificant creases, which in all honesty don't compromise the cover at all. You can tell it's age through the general signs of handling and a little discolouration in the white areas (as in the bright white has faded slightly to a creamy colour). On the back there's what look like stamps, but these I assume are the original price stickers due to the price printed/written on. The original printed insert is again in great shape, apart from some browning, what seems like an original price written small in one corner and creasing on the corners, which I imagine could be straightened out and remedied with pressing between two heavy books or something.
Record Condition – VERY GOOD+ – I play tested this album and it sounds fantastic! Great mono playback and nice bright and clear audio. There is some very light background crackle/hiss which seems to be noticeable between tracks, but once the music kicks in disappears, it might be heard very faintly in the background in places but this might be down to volume and the turntable you use. I did also hear a little pop or two, but these are pretty much not worth mentioning. When I visually inspected this copy, on side two there are eight lines running from track 2-3. If i had of been grading on visuals I would not have felt confident with a VERY GOOD, but as I played the record they didn't seem to have any affect on sound or audio at all, and to the touch feel quite light and merely aesthetic scuffs. I always try to grade fairly and honestly so wanted to go into as much detail about this album as possible. A good clean to remove any dust could also help improve the performance and grading.
