You are looking at a super clean copy of The Jazz Messengers at Cafe Bohemia Volume 2. Blue Note 1508. This is the original 1956 mono deep groove pressing. Flat edge. Lexington address on label. RVG in matrix runout. I have included extensive clips of this LP so that you can hear it for yourself. Please see below to listen to clips of this LP. LP ultrasonically cleaned and placed in a new poly inner sleeve.

Vinyl Condition: Visually EX. Conservatively graded. Some would visually grade it NM-. The labels are unusually crisp and clean. I see almost no spindle marks. The vinyl is very glossy and clean. All is see is sleeve scuffing seen under a bright light. I do not see any marks, scratches or anything of the sort. Likely gently played once or twice and then never played again. Play tested both sides and this LP sounds just so wonderful from start to finish. A very clean sounding copy with only the faintest of low background noise heard in quieter passages which are really only the interludes between songs when Art Blakey announces the next track and during the openings bars of the songs. Stunning, atmospheric pressing sonics make Art Blakey and his cohorts feel like they are in the room with you. Play grades NM or close to NM. You are going to have a tough time finding a better sounding copy that is not sealed. Please see sound files below before bidding. 

Outer Sleeve (cover) condition: NM-. An unusually clean outer sleeve. Very glossy and very clean. Looks barely handled and like it fell out of a time machine from the 1950s. I see just very very minor edge and ring shelf wear and a few faint marks to the front cover artwork. Just a superb looking outer sleeve that is fit for framing. 

Matrix runout #s: RVG (EAR STAMP) BN-LP-1508-A / RVG (EAR STAMP) BN-LP-1508-B
