Description
Don’t let the condition of the cover scare you from bidding on this nice copy of the First LP Release of Miles Davis Collector’s Items, with a great lineup of Miles Davis, Sonny Rollins, Charlie Parker (listed here as “Charlie Chan”), Tommy Flanagan, Paul Chambers, Philly Joe Jones and others. On this LP are two sessions - the first from 1953 and the second from 1956 - that were recorded for release as 78 rpm recordings. Rudy Van Gelder remastered these recordings for release on 33 rpm records – his hand-etched initials RVG are on the dead wax on both sides – and pressing is by Abbey Manufacturing (AB).
This record has has been cleaned and play-graded. The record surfaces are rated as VG+, with quiet surfaces and no needle sticks or loud, repetitive clicks. The record cover is in G+ condition - the seams and spine are covered with tape and there is writing on the back cover (see photos). The yellow and black “Fireworks” labels both have the original 446 W. 50th St. N.Y.C address and the characteristic Deep Grooves. The Side A label is clean and unmarked, but Side B has a name written on the label in ink.
This record is from my personal collection and I have decided it’s now time to start selling most of my records. I bought this LP in Used condition around 40 years ago and it has been carefully stored and occasionally played since.
Check out my eBay store for more Miles Davis and other great Jazz of that era, as well as Classical and World music from the 1950s & 1960s. Buy more than one LP and pay no additional Shipping costs to USA addresses.
