A SUPERB 1963 ORIGINAL FEMALE JAZZ VOCAL LP

LITA ROZA"LOVE SONGS FOR NIGHT PEOPLE" 

THIS FEATURES A SMALL JAZZ GROUP,THE BRIAN DEE QUARTET WHICH WITHIN THE SLEEVE NOTES REFERS TO HIM AS BRAIN AND NOT BRIAN!!!

THE LINE UP IS AS FOLLOWS:BRIAN DEE(PIANO)/GEORGE KISH(GUITAR)MALCOLM CECIL(BASS) and RONNIE STEPHENSON(DRUMS)

LITA ROZA CAME TO THE ATTENTION OF MOST MUSIC FANS OF THE EARLY 1950s AS A SINGER IN THE TED HEATH BAND,SADLY OFTEN SINGING POP AND NOVELTY SONGS SUCH AS HER UK#1"HOW MUCH IS THAT DOGGIE IN THE WINDOW".NOT UNLIKE ROSEMARY CLOONEY IN THE USA,IT TOOK A FEW YEARS FOR HER TO RECORD QUALITY JAZZ MATERIAL AND A SWITCH TO PYE PRODUCED SOME RARE AND SOUGHT AFTER LPs SHOWING HER EXCELLENT JAZZ PHRASING AND SENSUAL/"TORCH" STYLE, BUT THIS EMBER LP HAD VERY LITTLE EXPOSURE,ISSUED AT THE START OF BEATLEMANIA WHEN FEMALE JAZZ SINGERS WERE GIVEN LITTLE ATTENTION.THIS LP HAS ALWAYS HAD CULT STATUS-IT MAY HAVE BEEN REISSUED ON CD,BUT THIS VINYL ORIGINAL IS A MAJOR RARITY,SUCH A POOR SELLER AT THE TIME AND EMBER DID NOT HAVE A LONG TERM"BACK CATALOGUE"POLICY DELETING LPs WITHIN A YEAR OF ISSUE AND TO FIND ONE AS GOOD AS THIS COPY FROM SUCH A RELIABLE SOURCE WILL BE VERY HARD TO REPEAT!A GREAT OPPORTUNITY!!!!!

EMBER RECORDS WERE AN INDEPENDENT LABEL WHO HAD A LIMITED ADVERTISING BUDGET AND VARIABLE DISTRIBUTION,LIMITED LINKS WITH OVERSEAS COMPANIES AND AS SUCH I AM SURE THIS LP DID NOT GAIN AN ISSUE OUTSIDE THE UK BUT DESPITE ALL THIS,THEY MADE VERY HIGH QUALITY PRESSINGS ON THICK VINYL WITH SUPER CLEAR SOUND!

EMBER INTERNATIONAL LABELS:NR 5009.

THE FIRST DESIGN BEFORE THE BETTER KNOWN AND MORE COMMON RED/YELLOW DESIGN. 

EXCELLENT CONDITION!

THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE PRESSING!

A VERY RARE  LP FROM 47 YEARS AGO! 

THE FIRST DECENT COPY TO BE SEEN ON EBAY OR ANYWHERE IN MONTHS,POSSIBLY YEARS FROM A RELIABLE POWER SELLER AND LONG TERM COLLECTOR!  

SUPERB EXAMPLE HOUSED IN A CLEAN LAMINATED FRONT COVER WITH A FEW MINOR CREASES AT THE CORNERS BUT NO WRITING,RIPS OR REPAIRS-THE DISC INSIDE BEING EXCELLENT WHICH IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND AS GOOD AS THIS ONE!

  THE PRINT RUN FOR A FIRST EDITION JAZZ LP ON A TINY LABEL LIKE THIS WOULD BE LESS JUST A FEW THOUSAND,MAYBE EVEN JUST A FEW HUNDRED SOLD WITH THOSE THAT SOLD OFTEN RUINED ON HEAVY EQUIPMENT!!

THIS LP HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED-TERRIFIC WIDE SOUND!

THE MAJORITY WERE PLAYED ON RADIOGRAMS,PORTABLE PLAYERS AND EVEN THE MOST CAREFUL FANS WOULD HAVE PLAYED IT DOZENS OF TIMES,THIS LP HAS HAD HARDLY ANY PLAYS AT ALL!

FROM A RECENTLY PURCHASED COLLECTION OF TOP QUALITY  LPs OWNED FROM NEW BY THE BOSS OF ESQUIRE RECORDS,AND VIBES PLAYER(!)PETER NEWBROOK,WHO HARDLY USED HIS LPs AND STORED AWAY FROM LIGHT AND HEAT ON STURDY SHELVES FOR OVER 45 YEARS!

NO CLEANING WAS NECESSARY! AMAZING!!! 

A  JAZZ SINGER COLLECTORS DREAM-PLEASE READ ON FOR IN DEPTH DETAILS!!

I HAVE NOT FOUND SUCH BREATHTAKING QUALITY FOR AN LP OF THIS VINTAGE FOR QUITE SOMETIME.THEY ARE SIMPLY NOT TURNING UP AS FREQUENTLY AS THEY DID,EVEN FIVE YEARS AGO.MOST HAVE NOW LEFT THE UK FOR THE COLLECTIONS OF JAPAN,AMERICA AND THE FAR EAST NEVER TO RETURN TO THE SELLING MARKET.

THIS MAY BE YOUR LAST CHANCE TO GET SUCH A BRILLIANT LP LIKE THIS ONE AND IN ALMOST AS NEW CONDITION!

NO CLEANING WAS NEEDED,THE SURFACES GLEAM,NO FINGERPRINTS,PATCHES OR BAD STORAGE ISSUES,NO WARPING,NO SCUFFS,NO SCRATCHES,NO FADING etc.

PLEASE LOOK AT THE PHOTO OF THE BRIGHTNESS AND SHARPNESS OF THE LABEL AND THE FRONT COVER!

NO WRITING,NO RIPS,ETC

DON'T FORGET JUST HOW EXPENSIVE LPs WERE FOR THE AVERAGE BUYER.AN LP WAS USUALLY A CAREFULLY CONSIDERED PURCHASE OVER WEEKS AND EVEN MONTHS,WHICH EXPLAINS WHY SO FEW TURN UP.

THOSE THAT DID WERE OFTEN SCARED OF HAVING THEM STOLEN OR BORROWED WITHOUT RETURN AND WOULD WRITE NAMES ON THE COVER-JUST COMPARE WITH ANY OTHER SIMILAR LPs ON EBAY-THE MAJORITY HAVE WRITING,SELLOTAPE REPAIR OR WORSE STILL DRAWINGS AND DOODLES ADDED.

 THE BEST AND ONLY COPY I HAVE SEEN IN MANY,MANY YEARS.

I DON'T RECALL EVER FINDING A COPY BEFORE!

CHECK OUT YOURS SEE IF YOU HAVE ONE-CAN YOU REALLY PUT UP WITH THE ONE YOU HAVE GOT AND WILL UPGRADE?

IF NOTHING ELSE, A FANTASTIC INVESTMENT!

I AM SURE TO REGRET NOT KEEPING IT BUT THAT'S LIFE!

THE HOUSE IS FULL AS IT IS! 

THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH ME ON EBAY SINCE 2002 AND INDEED ELSEWHERE BEFORE SINCE 1986, WILL PROBABLY KNOW I HAVE BEEN A RESPECTED  MUSIC EXPERT AND COLLECTOR FOR MANY YEARS CALLED UPON BY RADIO,TV AND PRICE GUIDES FOR MY ADVICE AND KNOWLEDGE.

WHILST I AM IN THE BUSINESS TO SELL, I CARE DEEPLY ABOUT THE ITEMS I AM SELLING.

IN A COMPETITIVE MARKET SUCH AS EBAY, THIS IS GETTING RARE SO YOU CAN BID WITH COMPLETE CONFIDENCE!

AVERY NICE QUIET THICK VINYL PRESSING!  

MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE ARE IN POOR CONDITION-THIS ONE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE WHATSOEVER ,EVEN AT HIGH VOLUME WITH THE TREBLE FULL ON TO"CATCH"ANY GROOVE WEAR AND THAT IS BEING STRICT! 

NO STICKS!/NO JUMPS!/NO SWISHES!/NO DISTORTION!

IT HAS BEEN PLAYED ONLY A HANDFUL OF TIMES,POSSIBLY AS FEW AS 4-5 HAVING SPOKEN AT LENGTH TO THE PREVIOUS OWNER'S SON!!!!

Just how many were preserved like this one FROM A RELIABLE INDUSTRY SOURCE ??!!!!!!  

The mixes are Superb and full of bass, with a natural warmth from those LP days OF AROUND 47 YEARS AGO!

In the 1960s, many were using terrible old and heavy equipment and using worn styli or nasty autochangers that would scuff the discs forever in seconds at the time not aware that years later even the slightest damage would be evident on more sophisticated audio.

The 1960s equipment was quite often a bit basic and it was suggested to play LPs at between 5 and 8 grammes, which of course after a few plays would produce on later plays that nasty"film of fizzy distortion"so often IGNORED by sellers and in MY LISTENING GRADING is ALWAYS LISTENED OUT FOR WITH THE TREBLE FULL ON AND PLAYED TO ENSURE THE BEST AND MOST ACURATE GRADING!!!! 

 To find immaculate copies after all these years later is getting almost impossible!FACT!

THEY ARE SIMPLY DRYING UP! 

These mixes are far punchier but are rather flat on the CDs that have come out!

Vinyl is still the best way to hear JAZZ and always will be!  

GREAT WIDE RANGE SOUND WITH GREAT BASS!

I TEST ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITHOUT FILTERING OR A MONO SWITCH.

There is NO spindle wear.  

Look elsewhere on ebay and you will see other copies-Look closer and you will find they are often reissues or lower grade copies with all manner of faults.

MOST RECORDS ON EBAY ARE IN DIABOLICAL, BAD CONDITIONS ATTEMPTED TO BE  SOLD BY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GRADE OR BOTHER TO ACTUALLY PLAY THEM FOR AN ACURATE DESCRIPTION!  

THE LP AS USUAL WILL BE REMOVED FROM THE COVER BEFORE SENDING!   

REMEMBER I AM GRADING STRICTLY! PLEASE STUDY THE PHOTOS! 

As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!

THIS IS A GREAT CHANCE TO OWN A SUPER AND RARE  LP. A GREAT INVESTMENT!
