Description

The Michael Garrick Sextet with Norma Winstone  - The Heart Is A Lotus LP .. Argo ZDA 135 . Rare Jazz. 
This is a rare copy of the 1970 UK pressing released on Argos Records
of "The Heart Is A Lotus" LP by The Michael Garrick Sextet with Norma Winstone. Visually the record has a few light marks and a blemish but still has a shine to it.
As regards sound quality there are a couple of flaws. First on track 1 of the A Side of the disc at about the 2:20 second mark the record has a short bit of hiss and a couple of noticeable clicks and possibly a skip (difficult to tell exactly given the passage of music playing at this time). This lasts for approximately 10 seconds in all. Further in on Side A is what I would describe as a "blemish" that looks somewhat like a thumb print on the disc (see pictures). During play a tiny bit of hiss can be heard as the needle passes over this area during quieter bits of the music and a couple of the breaks between tracks. There are no problems on the B Side of the disc and other than the things already described the sound quality is pretty good. You can judge this for yourself as I have recorded the record and the recording of the album for sale in full can be heard by following this link:

The record labels are in Excellent condition, clean on both sides. The Picture sleeve show some signs of aging with some minor creasing and a bit of discolouration on the back.   The record will be shipped Tracked and/or Signed For and Insured.
