·       ORIGINAL U.S. PRESSING

*** STILL SEALED GUARANTEED ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING ***

·       IMPORTANT NOTE: WE ARE SELLING THIS ALBUM AS STILL SEALED DESPITE THE FACT THAT THE SHRINK WRAP HAS SEPARATED ALONG THE ENTIRE LENGTH OF THE BOTTOM SEAM. IT IS QUITE OBVIOUS FROM THE APPEARANCE AND THE OVERALL CONDITION OF THE ALBUM THAT THIS ALBUM HAS NEVER BEEN OPENED, AND THAT THE SEAL ALONG THE OPENING (MOUTH) OF THE ALBUM – WHICH IS VERY TIGHT - HAS BEEN INTACT AND UNTOUCHED SINCE THE ALBUM LEFT THE FACTORY, ALMOST 40 YEARS AGO. WE UNCONDITIONALLY GUARANTEE THAT THIS IS A STILL FACTORY SEALED ITEM. PLEASE BID IN CONFIDENCE. 

·       BELIEVED TO BE PRESSED ON THE ORIGINAL BLACK AND BLUE 'BLUE NOTE' LABEL USED BETWEEN 1969-1972 (WE ARE NOT SURE)

·       THIS IS THE ORIGINAL, AUTHENTIC, FIRST U.S. PRESSING; THIS IS NOT A REISSUE, AN IMPORT, OR A COUNTERFEIT PRESSING.

(?PLEASE SEE THE IMAGE OF THE COVER, LABEL OR BOTH, SHOWN BELOW)

For his Blue Note debut, Maestro, Brazilian composer Moacir Santos assiduously avoids his homeland's familiar bossa nova and samba rhythms, instead reinventing lesser-known idioms like baiao and frevo to create his own complex yet pulsating signatures and cadences. Opening with "Nana," easily Santos' most familiar and oft-recorded composition, Maestro quickly proves an uncommonly vast canvas for a who's who of Los Angeles session greats including Joe Pass, Clair Fischer, and Don Menza, all of whom explore new territory throughout the LP. For all their depth and intricacy, Santos' songs never box in their players, but allow them the space and the tools necessary to spread out. Though little-heard on its original release, many of the songs that comprise Maestro were later re-recorded by an all-star Brazilian group for the 2001 Santos tribute effort Ouro Negro, reaffirming their timelessness and their vitality.

·                               CONDITION:

·                               RECORD

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)          THE ALBUM IS STILL FACTORY SEALED AND IS BELIEVED TO BE PERFECTLY MINT. Please note: sealed items are assumed to be mint and are sold as-is, as we have no way of inspecting them. For our policy on still sealed records ?click here (PLEASE READ BEFORE PLACING A BID)

(b)          The record is  apparently pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

(c)           Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!
