Orig.Prestige-Miles Davis-Musings of Miles-446W50th

$

371

This offering is an essentially new, First pressing, Preview copy of Miles Davis' "Musings Of Miles" with Deep Grooves on both sides. The LP shows no signs of having been played other than my play grading. Typical of Prestige - there are a few very light crackles but, all in all, it plays quieter than a great many new records. Definitely NM. The jacket is also very nice except for a 2" split at top center and a slightly "nicked" corner upper left. VERY slight dulling of the laminate.

The Artists:

Miles Davis, trumpet; Red Garland, Piano; Oscar Pettiford, Bass and Phillie Joe Jones, Drums

Playing:

I Didn't, Will You Still Be Mine?, Green Haze, I See Your Face Before Me, A Night In Tunisia and A Gal In Calico.

Please have a look at my other auctions and/or add me to your "Favorite Sellers".

The designation "Review Copy" generally assures that an LP is an early 1st pressing.

Over the next few months I will be selling selected gems from my personal collection. I have begun with some of the more modest offerings in order to build my feedback and have progressed to rarer items. While I may be new to Ebay I am NOT new to record collecting. All LP's offered by me have been owned (40+ years) since new - most have been played no more than 2 or 3 times. Note: All are guaranteed or your money back! So please bid with confidence.

All records are strictly graded according to GoldMine standards with one exception. I believe GoldMine has too large a gap between M- and VG+. I have added VG++ which, I believe, is MUCH better that VG+ but not quite M-. Play grading is done on a VPI HW-19 Mk-IV with SME-IV Tonearm and Shure V-15VxMR cartridge. All records are wet vacuum cleaned on a VPI HW-16.5 record cleaner using Record Research Labs Super Vinyl Wash and Disk Doctor brushes. I WILL NOT offer for sale any LPs with groove-damage distortion. I will not offer any graded below VG+.

SPECIAL NOTE RE: DEEP GROOVES. (Blue Note Only) Beginning with BLP-4061 very few first pressings were deep groove. Many second pressings were however. "Deep Groove" does not refer to the playing area but to a groove stamped in the label area. (Apologies to those who already know this - but I've had many questions).

All LP's will be packaged in sturdy cardboard mailers designed for the purpose and will include extra cardboards top and bottom. LP's are in new poly lined sleeves and original sleeves are included as well. LP remains in new sleeve but is packaged outside of the jacket. Both LP & jacket are encased in an outer poly sleeve. This is considered the safest way to avoid damage to LP and jacket.
