Description

You are bidding on an original early mono pressing Blue Note LP (BLP 1577) of JOHN COLTRANE'S BLUE TRAIN. ONE OF THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER COLLECTIBLE LP AND THIS WAS THE ONLY COLTRANE' ALBUM AS A LEADER FOR BLUE NOTE SESSIONS.
Issued in 1958, the album featured legendary musicians as Lee Morgan, Curtis Fuller, Kenny Drew, Paul Chambers, and Philly Joe Jones.  
Produced by Alfred Lion / Recording Engineer: Rudy Van Gelder / Cover photo by Francis Wolff / Cover design by Reid Miles
Tracking:
1. Blue Train 10:43 2. Moment's Notice 9:10 3: Locomotion 7:14 4. I'm Old Fashioned 7:58 5. Lazy Bird 7:00
This one is an original LP with Deep Groove on both sides, RVG on both sides, and also "EAR mark" on both sides. No "R" and no "INC" on both labels. Address on both labels stated, "BLUE NOTE RECORDS 47 WEST 63rd NYC".
I've playtested the LP by my system of Thorens TD-124 with SME3012R and Ortofon S15T. Hooked up with CELLO Palette preamp and CELLO Duet 350 amplifier, with RED ROSE Classic Speakers. The record played superbly on both sides with no issues. Labels with some stains on both sides due to age (see photos).  I, therefore, graded the vinyl Near Mint-/Near Mint- for both side 1 and side 2. (because of stains on labels, otherwise it would have been NM/NM for its superbly sound and no noise.)
The cover is looked very fine Near Mint-. With shiny deep blue. No split. The back cover has some yellow stains due to age. Address on the back cover state: "BLUE NOTE RECORDS, 47 West 63rd St., New York 23"

I WILL PACK THEM STRONG FOR A LONG JOURNEY. DON'T WORRY!
