MILES DAVIS QUARTET
RELAXIN'
1958
ESQUIRE 1st PRESS32-068 Matrix no's : PRLP-7129-A / B
Visually the HEAVYWEIGHT MICROGOOVE vinyl retains excellent deep lustrous sheen and under bright light there are some visible marks but mainly fine hairlines and just a few other more significant marks or blemishes but actually very little to affect sound quality. Playback is graded a strong EXCELLENT - plays really well with great full tonal qualities and really very little surface noise at all - a great copy !
The ESQUIRE record labels are graded EXCELLENT - with little visible spindle wear.
The quality card FULLY LAMINATED PICTURE sleeve printed by WEST BROTHERS is VERY GOOD PLUS - actually overall very little general wear but the laminate is lifting on the back and there is staining to the front top right and some more discolouration and foxing to the white card back with a small tear/crease to to the front bottom opening. The spine remains remarkably strong and uncrushed - not bad for 62 years !
Comes with ORIGINAL POLY-LINED INNER which is EXCELLENT MINUS - no splits, slight discolouration and a couple of creases.
