Description
Rainy Day Records USA (established 1981)
ALWAYS COMBINES SHIPPING TO SAVE YOU MONEY AND WE ALWAYS SHIP WITH TRACKING. YOUR SATISFACTION IS OUR FIRST PRIORITY!
From Blue Note Records (4157), this is THE SIDEWINDER
by LEE MORGAN, a beautiful original pressing from 1964
with a playing time of 40:59. The jacket still has shrink-wrap
intact except at opening and shows minor shelf wear at corners.
Front and back surfaces of cover are very clean rating at least
VG+ or better. The LP appears NEAR MINT and plays from EX+
to NEAR MINT with a whisper of extraneous noise between cuts.
Any noise disappears when the music begins and is not audible
even in quiet passages. There is absolutely no distortion, no
startling pops or clicks and certainly no skips. The original inner
sleeve is present and in great shape (see photos). Overall, one
of the finest examples of this hard bop classic we've seen.
Highest recommendation!

When you buy from a small Mom & Pop business you are not
helping a CEO buy a third vacation home, a second yacht
or a four hundred million dollar golden parachute. Instead,
you’re helping a little girl get dance lessons, a little boy get
his team jersey, a Mom put food on the table, a Dad pay
a mortgage, or a student pay for college. Our customers
are our shareholders; they are the ones we strive to make
happy. Thank you for supporting small businesses.
