Lee Morgan - Cornbread LP - Blue Note - BLP 4222 Mono RVG NY USA
Mono 1st Pressings have VAN GELDER Mastering Stampers in the Dead Wax and have Blue + White Blue Note Labels that say: BLUE NOTE RECORDS INC - NEW YORK USA. Mono 1st Pressings also have the following address Near the bottom of the Back Cover: BLUE NOTE RECORDS INC., 43 West 61st St., New York, N.Y. 10023. There is no "ear" visible on this record but it still may be a first pressing -- for more information, google: The Blue Note Label Guide. In that site it states: "Liberty issued around forty Blue Note titles which had been prepared for release prior to the sale of Blue Note. These titles are pressed without ear in their first edition, in every other respect original Blue Note (Van Gelder, NY label, original cover), apart from the missing ear. Examples are 4193, 4196, 4204, 4206, 4209, and many others approaching the 4250 cut-off."
Vinyl has scuffs and scratches (some very noticeable) -- visually VG. Side 1 plays very clean with only a bit of background noise here and there. On Side 2 the background noise is more noticeable. Thus, Side 1 plays better than VG+ and side 2 plays under VG+.
The cover is between VG and VG+ with wear and some writing on back. (see photos)
