Vinyl: VG+ This record is in very good condition and overall plays very nice. There are a few tics and pops that are audible but only in the first 30-45 seconds of the first track on side 1, Monk's Dream, the title cut. After about 40 seconds or more when the melody is finished and Charlie starts his solo they are no longer apparent. Outside of the one track the remainder of the record plays beautifully.
Cover: VG+ The cover is in really great condition with only a slight creasing at the front right corner. Some slight ring wear on front cover and back cover has a very small discoloration (square) on the bottom right of back cover due to a price sticker that apparently was removed. All seams are intact and there is no cutouts, holes punched, writing, split seams or stamps at all. Very nice heavy weight cardboard characteristic of the original jazz LPs from the 50s and 60s.
