Description

FREDDIE ROACH “Down To Earth” Blue Note 4113, RVG, P, Mono Vinyl

This is the first edition, 1962, “Van Gelder” stamped, “P” pressing of FREDDIE ROACH’s “Down To Earth" on the "New York USA" labels of Blue Note BLP 4113.  Musicians include Freddie Roach, Percy France, Kenny Burrell, Clarence Johnston.

VINYL plays with very low level surface noise (i.e, static, ?? or ????, relative to the volume of the music/instruments) with occasional ticks or pops. But the instruments are very dynamic, clear and strong with clean transients, solid bass frequencies and full tone. No distortion. No skips. Handful of hairline marks, none feelable. Both sides have excellent gloss. Plays beautifully overall. See photos. As with all first pressing Blue Note discs, the powerfully recorded and performed music overcomes imperfections. The “New York USA " labels are clean with a minor spindle marks. See photos. Original inner sleeve included.

COVER is in good shape, top seam fully taped. Corners worn. Spine and lower seam largely clean, small split on lowerseam. “BLUE NOTE RECORDS INC., 43 West 61st St., New York 23” back jacket shows some aging, taped top seam. See photos.

      

This LP was play-tested on a high-end audio system. Record cleaned on VPI 16.5.
