Description
Prestige 7114, “Alto Madness” with Jackie McLean, alto sax; John Jenkins, alto sax; Wade Legge, piano; Doug Watkins, bass; Art Taylor, drums; from 1956. The original W. 50th St. vinyl (with “RVG” pressed in the deadwax on both sides) plays at NM with virtually no background sound; the vinyl is glossy and shows no marks. The heavy laminated jacket looks almost like new with no seam wear, corner wear, ringwear, writing, or stamps, and the jacket back is extremely clean with no writing and only a “Not for Sale” stamp. There is one tiny nick in the center of the spine. The jacket is slightly bowed (as you can see on one of the spine photos), but this looks like a factory issue. Songs are “Alto Madness”, “The Lady Is a Tramp”, “Easy Living”, Windy City”, and “Pondering”.
Shipping is $4.00 media mail, $8.00 priority mail within the continental U.S.; $18.00 regular airmail to the U.K., Europe, Japan, Korea, Australia, and New Zealand. A few record labels such as Folkways may be slightly more expensive to ship overseas. Additional LPs in a single package are $1.00 additional within U.S. and Canada, $2.00 elsewhere. For overseas shipments, registered mail is strongly recommended at $12.00 extra. Many old records are practically antiques and should be treated that way. This LP will be packaged with the record inside an inner sleeve but outside the jacket; both are placed inside a sealed outer sleeve and shipped inside a special oversized handcrafted mailer with padding on all sides. It is designed thick enough not to be bent in transit and strong enough to withstand a drop from a second-story window. More than two LPs together may be mailed inside a heavy Bags Unlimited pizza-style box. Your LP should arrive in the same condition as on the day it was shipped. All used LPs are play-graded on a VPI turntable with Audioquest tonearm and Grado cartridge.
