Andrew Hill Compulsion!!!!! Blue Note Stereo 84217 (BLP-4217/BST-84217)
Hill (p) with Freddie Hubbard (t, flh); John Gilmore (ts, b cl); Richard Davis or Cecil McBee (b); Joe Chambers (d); Nedi Qamar (african perc); Renaud Simmons (cga).
Chicago-born Andrew Hill was influenced by rhythm and blues and, later, backed a number of blues and jazz singers. But it was only after some time on the Los Angeles modern-jazz scene, followed by a move to New York, that he found his own style.
Or styles. Blue Note gave him the opportunity to experiment with ensembles of various size and musicians of varying approach. Of the many exciting dates that he did for the label, Compulsion!!!!! is the one most African influenced.
Liberty records era stereo repress with 'BNST-84217 A', a stylized '22', and 'VAN GELDER' stamped in side A runout. 'BNST-84217 B', a stylized '33', and 'VAN GELDER' in side B runout. No deep groove.
Record cover: '84217' left of 'Blue Note', upper right on front; 43 West 61st St., New York 23 on bottom of back. Liberty Blue Note logo upper left and 'BLP-4217/BST-84217' upper right on back.
Cover art, text (front and back) are in excellent condition. Stylized, fractured images of Hill on front are clean and sharp. Cover has no splits, bumps, or creases; only its age militates against a 'Near Mint' rating. Spine is perfect, text completely legible.
I'm an independent seller divesting his own record collection. I'm not selling from a store or warehouse, with multiple copies of titles, or on behalf of a professional collector.
Shipping: Ebay requires seller to indicate shipping methods and other particulars, then automatically inserts the cost at the top of the listing. Buyer will pay amount as determined by destination and shipping method he chooses; I don't gouge the price to make more profit. (USPS Media Mail is cheapest; I will provide prices for US Priority, or for FedEx or UPS ground, if requested.)
Insurance is mandatory.
Please wait till I inform you of cost prior to submitting payment. It and not Ebay's stated cost is the amount to be paid.
**For winners outside US**: USPS shipping options are International Priority and International Express. Both methods include insurance but only Express has tracking. If you want a different shipper, I will quote you the cost at end of auction.
Packing: The LP will be carefully wrapped, then placed in a standard, cardboard LP box. Please indicate any special instructions.
Payment: I accept Paypal. I also accept cash in cases of in-person deliveries.
Returns: Returns will be accepted in cases of error in description.
