Description
BLUE NOTE MONO VINYL 1ST PRESSING!
Very seldom seen in UK auctions is this beautiful MONO FIRST PRESSING of Joe Henderson's post-bop classic, In 'N Out (Blue Note BLP 4166). This is a one-time opportunity to get your hands on a really lovely original copy of this Blue Note original, completel with Plastylite ear! A great combination of stellar musicianship and wonderful sound. 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 strictly graded in Excellent- condition, with very slight crackle on the run-in but a nice quiet soundstage throughout. All characteristics of the first Mono pressing are present (VAN GELDER stamp, ear on both sides, NY USA on labels etc.) Having played the album in full, it sounds punchy and loud throughout, being another Rudy Van Gelder special! Visually, there are a few surface marks on side 1 (shown in the photos) and some fainter hairlines on side 2, but nothing affecting the audio.
The laminated, dimpled cover is strictly graded in Very Good+ condition, due to slight discolouring/ringwear which can be seen in the photos, a small stamp in the corner of the back cover (see photos) and some scuffing of the spine. However, it is structurally sound and otherwise in superb condition - and with one of the all-time great BN cover designs.
Original 1965 inner sleeve also included.

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.
