Description

Boom-Jackie-Boom-Chick
Paul Gonsalves Quartet

Vocalion-Mono-LAE 587

Condition:
Vinyl VG+ / Sleeve EX

This really is THE holy grail for Jazz collectors.

It is thought that less than 500 copies of this album were originally pressed in 1964, and these days they come up for sale very, very rarely. When listening to it, it's not hard to understand why it is so sought after... it is a FANTASTIC record!
It has been reissued once in Japn in the 1980's, and even that reissue sells for £300+ these days. This though is a genuine original pressing! It comes from my own collection and I really don't want to sell it, but unfortunately I need to raise some cash.

Visually the record has some noticeable marks to Side One, as can be seen in the photos. However these marks DO NOT particularly affect the sound. I would say Side One sounds as good, or even better than Side Two, which looks excellent. Overall the sound is at least VG+ and mostly better. It is not near mint as there is a bit of light surface noise noticeable at times, but it doesn't really detract from listening pleasure).
The sleeve is in near excellent condition, with no serious problems.

I have uploaded a video to Youtube which should be visible below and includes more images of the album and sound clips of it playing, which I strongly advise you to view, as it will give you a much better idea of the condition of the record than is possible from this description.


If the video does not appear is this listing you can view it HERE.

Needless to say, the record will be packaged VERY CAREFULLY so that it does not get damaged in transit and it will be sent insured.

Thanks for looking and if you have any questions, please get in touch.
