Rudy Van Gelder (born November 2, 1924, in Jersey City, New Jersey) is a recording engineer specializing in jazz. Frequently regarded as one of the most important recording engineers in music history,[1] Van Gelder is one of the legendary behind-the-scenes figures in jazz, recording several hundred jazz sessions, including many widely recognized as classics. Bringing an unprecedented clarity to jazz recording, Van Gelder has recorded many of the great names in the genre, including Miles Davis, Thelonious Monk, Lee Morgan, Joe Henderson, Wayne Shorter, John Coltrane, and many others. He worked with many record companies, but he is most closely associated with Blue Note Records, now a division of EMI. Van Gelder's recording techniques are often admired for the warmth and presence he brings to the end result.

On Aug-27-08 at 14:45:06 PDT, seller added the following information:To answer many collectors asking a similar question to find out if this is a First pressing: It appears it is as there is an "EAR" mark (symbol) often referred to as a pretzel-like engravure close to 1/4" in length in the dead wax-trail-off area of the vinyl on side one preceding the matrix # "BNLP-4157 A".
The recording engineer Rudy Van Gelder's name is stamped in the dead wax following this matrix. "Van Gelder"
Both of these are regarded in jazz circles as signs of a First Pressing.
