DON RENDELL JAZZ SIX
PLAYTIME LP
UK 1958 MONO DECCA FIRST PRESS LK 4265
INCREDIBLY RARE 50'S CLASSIC - IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND NOW IN THIS MAGNIFICENT BARELY PLAYED CONDITION
RED UNBOXED DECCA FIRST PRESS
LOOK NO FURTHER FOR A FINAL VINYL UPGRADE COPY OF THIS JAZZ CLASSIC BY THE WONDERFUL & WORLD FAMOUS UK SAXOPHONIST DON RENDELL
CAN'T IMAGINE THAT YOU'LL EVER FIND A BETTER COPY!
VINYL
NM WONDERFUL VINYL ON BOTH SIDES. HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL WITH A LOVELY RICH BLACK SHEEN - ONLY A FEW FEINT SLEEVE REMOVAL LINES, SHOWING THAT THIS WONDERFUL LP HAS ONLY BEEN (VERY CAREFULLY!) PLAYED A FEW TIMES.
VINYL PLAYBACK: WONDERFUL PLAYBACK ON BOTH SIDES. SOME DUST SPOTS ON THE INITIAL PLAY-INS, BUT THEN APART FROM SOME OCCASIONAL STATIC A BEAUTIFULLY QUIET PLAYBACK. A TINY BIT OF BACKGROUND BETWEEN TRACKS 2 AND 3 ON SIDE 2, THOUGH I'M GUESSING THAT THIS MAY EVEN CLEAN AWAY. I DON'T DEEP OR WET CLEAN PRIOR TO SELLING - I LEAVE THAT TO THE PURCHASER. EVERYONE HAS THEIR OWN METHODS! A TYPICALLY LOUD AND DYNAMIC EARLY DECCA MONO RECORDING ON HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL.
PLAY GRADED ON A LINN SONDEK LP12 WITH ITTOK LV II ARM AND LINN KLYDE CARTRIDGE. ALL GRADING AS PER RRPG GUIDELINES.
LABELS
RED DECCA UNBOXED LABELS IN SUPERB EX CONDITION. SOME FEINT SPINDLE MARKS ON EACH SIDE, BUT NO OTHER MARKS, FINGER PRINTS ETC.
SLEEVE
FRONT LAMINATED FLIPBACK SLEEVE IN EX CONDITION. GOOD SOLID SLEEVE WITH LOVELY BRIGHT COLOURS AND NO FADING.
POINTS TO NOTE: FRONT - A 1CM CREASE FRONT TOP RIGHT, SOME SMALL 1CM LIFTING DAMAGE FRONT BOTTOM RIGHT, TINY RUBBING BOTH SPINE CORNERS, AND SOME SMALL LIFTING OF THE LAMINATE FRONT BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER THAT'S ACTUALLY DIFFICULT TO SEE. SMALL AMOUNT OF COLOUR LIFTING RINGWEAR.
BACK - SMALL AMOUNT OF FLIPBACK LIFT TOP AND BOTTOM, BUT NOTHING SERIOUS. SOME CREASING TOP LEFT. CONSIDERING IT'S AGE, THE WHITE OF THE REAR COVER IS IN LOVELY CONDITION.
THE THIN EARLY DECCA SPINE IS BEAUTIFUL & UNCREASED - NO WRITING ON THE SPINE, TYPICAL OF THESE EARLY DECCA SLEEVES.
SOME SMALL RUBBING AND FEATHERING TO THE OPENING EDGES, WHICH I'M GUESSING COMES PREDOMINANTLY FROM STORAGE.
BEING VERY PICKY HERE FOLKS - NONE OF THESE THINGS DETRACT FROM A LOVELY COVER THAT'S IN REMARKABLE CONDITION CONSIDERING IT'S AGE!
INNER SLEEVE
ORIGINAL WHITE POLY-LINED PAPER INNER IN EX+ CONDITION.

I have been buying and selling rare vinyl for over 30 years. I have a large and eclectic vinyl-only stall at most of the major UK record fairs, including Olympia and Westminster, where my reputation for selling records in superb condition is well known. I specialise in all things Psych & Prog, although you'll find all genres in my listings. My ebay selling is restricted to either rare records that I want to get out to a larger audience, or records in especially superb condition for people that may be looking to upgrade.
I'm very proud of my 100% feedback. If there's any kind of problem with the item, please contact me first to resolve before leaving feedback.
Thanks!
