COVER:   Slight wear, very faint record or label ring very minor shelf ware the cover may have minor seam splitting

VG+:

RECORD: Obviously been played with noticeable surface marks & the occasional light scratch but record should play without skipping or repeating.

COVER:   Noticeable shelf wear, small tear in seams, possible writing, stains, label or record ring.

VG and below: Let’s be honest: sound quality is low and the cover may be in very poor shape.

I only sell albums rated VG+ and above unless a record is so rare that its presence in the collection transcends

The poor quality of the vinyl or cover, plus: In my terminology Scratches are feeler type and marks or scuffs are just cosmetic and inaudible.

+ (PLUS) / - (MINUS): Slightly up or down in condition as appears in the comments above

History

Alice Coltrane's watershed first album after the death of her husband John…in some cases a compendium wouldn't work, but all of it falls into place  -- because of the chronological sequencing from January through June of 1968. There are three different sessions and two different bands at work on A Monastic Trio; the first is actually a quartet with Pharoah Sanders playing tenor, flute, and bass clarinet respectively with Jimmy Garrison on bass and Ben Riley on drums. The other five pieces are by a trio with Garrison and the fiery drummer Rashied Ali. Musically, the works here move from the deep bluesy modal structures that Alice Coltrane so loved in John's repertoire. Here she composes on the first three tunes for herself and Sanders. All of these works, with their deep Eastern tinges in the intervals juxtaposed against Western blues phrasing, are wondrously droning and emotional exercises. Sanders moves the music outside its frame of reference, adding his harmonic invention -- which is truly singular -- to Coltrane's blues-making, creating music that feels, anyway, as if it is somehow eternal. The five tracks with Ali and Garrison are more rooted in traditional soul-jazz and gospel themes, and made somehow exotic by the use of bells and Ali's underhanded, fluidly rolling drumming. Garrison could punch up any blues line and make it sing, and he does, especially on "Gospel Trane" and "Oceanic Beloved." It's quite beautiful and flows without a hint of forced emotion or mechanical intrusion.
