Description

An original mono 1st press of Monk's Time on CBS 2-EYE. Matrix 1C/2C. Please note this is a demonstration copy that would have been released to record execs or promotional folk. The heavy set vinyl comes in an original cover which we've literally just taken out of the original shrink-wrap. Take a good look - this is one sweet looking 60's LP! 
Vinyl (Ex-) In great condition and has only seen a light to moderate level of use. Under close inspection we could only make out a couple of marks each side - nothing troublesome though. A thorough testing from beginning to end reveals a NEAR EXCELLENT level of playback with one deviation. Intros and inbetweens are nice and quiet and the audio comes across with great clarity.. You just can't imagine capturing these sounds and ambience on a CD...no way! A beautiful pressing and the audio just pours out of the speakers unhindered. Interference is minor and infrequent. All we detected was the odd crackle here and there, a couple of ticks midway through side 2, and then two clicks in the closing seconds of the LP. Nothing invasive or distracting you from what is a fantastic rendition.
Cover (Ex+) Wowzers....it really is a joy to see a cover surface from the sixties looking quite this fine. And of course that could only happen because it has been stored in its original wrapper [which we've just removed]. The front is beautifully clean and uncreased - just some slight wear at the opening. The rear is absolutely pristine and there is not even the vaguest hint of ageing or use...that really is very unusual. Edge wear is non-existent and the spine is 100% intact. Overall the cover retains perfect rigidity and lies totally flat. FINAL UPGRADE no sweat.
