BILL EVANS – COMPLETE RIVERSIDE RECORDINGS: 18LP BOX SET

A Beautiful 18LP box set covering 151 performances from1956-1963 with several previously unreleased recordings. This is R-018 on the Riverside Label of Fantasy, Inc. and was issued in 1984 as part of a Limited Edition of 5,000.

The set consists of a sleeve with two inner cases, 18 LPs in lined paper sleeves and an excellent 32-page booklet detailing the recording session, provides a spread of the original album covers 1956-1964 in color and a complete Album Identification under the Riverside, Riverside (ABC),Milestone, Prestige, Impulse (ABC) and OJC (Original Jazz Classics) labels.

The 18 records are a conservative VG++ and housed in the original red color Riverside paper and plastic inner sleeves (albums arecontained in two inner boxes)-second photo. There are some light surface marks(scuffing) on 4 sides that prevent me from calling this NM. I honestly believe these marks to be right from the pressing plant. One of the inner sleeves has atwo inch piece of scotch tape.

The outer box is VG++ with a name lightly written in pen in the top right corner of the back side, there are also a couple of minor visual imperfections in the leatherette imitation material. The brochure is a very strong VG++ (an eyelash from NM) condition.

This set is beingsold "as is". I only accept PAYPAL and payment must be made within 5days of auction end. Sorry, I will ship this item only to the United States and Canada.
