Details: The one and only, King Mobley! 47 West 63rd labels, deep groove, RVG, Ear. This comes with a rarely seen original wide fold blank inner sleeve it was issued with. This lp has been cleaned on a Degritter ultrasonic cleaner.


Record condition:  Visually G+/VG- but plays much better! Side 1 is visually G+ with numerous marks, a few of which are felt. Side 2 is VG-, many light marks but only one is felt. Play graded in full. Track one begins with some VG- surface noise for the first 1-2 minutes, then gets much better. The rest of track one and two are an enjoyable VG, track 3 plays more like VG+. Side 2 is mostly VG+, some brief background noise but no bad distractions. Overall this makes a fine play copy, the overwhelming majority plays nicely! Play grade is guaranteed.

Cover:  VG-  Front displays nicely, back shows wear. Top seam has wear, beginning of a split at opening and a 1" center seam split. Wear on spine and 7" of splits. Lower seam is in nice shape.

Labels: See photos
