100

ARTIST: Chet Baker
LABEL: Riverside RLP 12-299 (1959 Mono)
TITLE: Chet - Ballads By Chet Baker
CONDITION:
Sleeve: The front cover is a beautiful Mint- w/ just a touch of light lamination wear and bright graphics. The back cover is also Mint- w/ a whisper of wear. Seams & spine are sharp & intact except for a 2 1/2" partial split at the bottom of the spine w/ still readable graphics there. It also has tiny spots of corner wear.
Record: Retains high original gloss and by the spindle hole looks like this LP has been carefully played only a few times. It has a fair amount of sleeve storage marks. Both sides start of a bit noisey VG+ w/ some background surface noise but pretty quickly settle into a much better VG++ w/ light random background surface noise. There is also a nick at the beginning of the last track on Side B that causes 19 background ticks. Has great sound presence. / VPI cleaned
COMMENTS: Original deep groove blue & silver microphone label pressing of this Chet Baker classic.
Musicians : Chet Baker, Herbie Mann, Pepper Adams, Bill Evans, Kenny Burrell, Paul Chambers, Connie Kay, Philly Joe Jones
Tracks : Alone Together...How High the Moon...It Never Entered My Mind...'Tis Autumn...If You Could See Me Now....September Song...You'd Be So Nice To Come Home To...Time On My Hands...You & the Night & Music...
