Hi! You're looking at a SUPERB overall condition Vinyl LP which is a classic 1968 album on the Blue Note records label by alto saxophonist LOU DONALDSON titled "Midnight Creeper"--the album features BLUE MITCHELL on trumpet, LONNIE SMITH on organ, GEORGE BENSON on guitar, and LEO MORRIS (Idris Muhammad) on drums and is one of Lou Donaldson's greatest later organ sessions on the Blue Note label. The LP is a Blue Note Records album released in 1973 on a dark blue label with a black note with VAN GELDER stamped in the runout grooves, bears the serial number BST 84280, is a STEREO issue and was made in the United States.
This LP Set is in SUPERB overall condition and the vinyl is in NEAR MINT- (Ex) condition and should play beautifully, with a few light paper scuffs that should not significantly affect play and NO other significant flaws; the deluxe gatefold cover is in VG++ condition with very light discoloration on the bottom edge and lower side edges of the inner gatefold surface, slight ringwear on the surfaces, a clipped lower left corner, a slight scuff on the upper center edge of the front surface and just light shelfwear otherwise but no other significant flaws!  The original plain white inner sleeve is also included.
