Item Description
You are looking at an authentic and highly desirable vinyl Lp record album on quality vinyl at 33 1/3 rpm and is not to be missed!
Here we have an outstanding and highly collectible record., Max
This is an incredible experience for your stereo rig: This is the great Miles Davis E.S.P. This is an original Columbia Records 2 Eye 360 Stereo pressing. This is a Better Records Hot Stamper and folks we gotta tell you the sound quality is scorching hot! DEMONSTRATION QUALITY sound. Say what you want but we think that Tom Port certainly knows a great pressing when he hears one. Miles Davis smokes on this album that features a great embarrassment of talent including: Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Tony Williams, and Ronald Carter. Wow, what a band! Only Miles Davis could conjure up this level of amazing talent. This is catalog number CS 9150 Highest recommendation from us here at Analog Paradise. Record is in excellent condition. Has early 1E/1B Columbia stampers. The sound is rich, full-bodied, and immensely musical on this great set with tons of tubey magic in the grooves. Cover has light wear on it. Fantastic record from the celebrated Miles Davis. Gorgeous copy.
It gives us great pleasure to be able to present rare and
elusive discs like this one for your record collection. Rare and
elusive discs like this one don't come around often and when they do
they get snatched up quickly. Not to be missed! Highest recommendation
from Analog Paradise. Please do not miss out on this great record. Thanks for looking and best of luck to you in this auction. Condition: This item has EXCELLENT quality.
Not sure what this means?
Here is our grading scale: Our Grading Scale:
All LPs are graded visually, under careful inspection by
collector/dealers, with many years' experience at LP evaluation.
Some of the most sought-after (and/or more questionable) will be
play-graded on a fine 2-channel system; if the LP has been
play-graded, that will be stated in the listing - - but, in any
case, all LPs are scrutinized carefully, and described to the best of
our abilities. We do realize, of course, that a visual estimation
can be mistaken - - we plead humanity, and offer apologies, in that
hopefully-rare instance where this occurs. E (or Ex, or Exc) = Excellent, our highest grade for a used LP;
such an LP has been well cared-for by a collector, and contains no
scratches expected to sound. An LP which is play-graded by us, and
listed in this condition, should contain no more than about
half-a-dozen or so ticks per side, actually better than many
brand-new discs play out. Our E is the equivalent of some other
dealers' NM, or NM-minus, or yet other dealers' A.
E- (or Exc-minus), signifies that the LP is till very well
cared-for, but may contain one or two light scratches, which are not
expected to produce much surface-noise. This grade is roughly
equivalent to some dealers' NM-minus-minus, or others' EX, and yet
other dealers' A-minus. V+ (or VG+, or Very Good-Plus): an LP which is assigned this grade
still is in very positive condition, with a few more light marks
than would warrant an E-minus. A disc in this condition is expected
to have a bit of extraneous surface-noise, but it should not be
expected to interfere much with the enjoyment of the music for most
collectors. Our V+ is roughly equivalent to some dealers'
Exc-minus, or VG+, and yet other dealers' B+. V (or VG, or Very Good): It is at this point which we expect the
surface-noise in at least a part of the disc to interfere with
enjoyment of the music for a majority of collectors. May contain
one or a few feel-able scratches. It is possible, however
(best-case scenario), that such an LP might tick loudly for,
perhaps, half a minute, and yet, the rest of the side might play
flawlessly. We would generally encourage only those collectors who
consider themselves pretty tolerant to pursue an LP in this
condition. V is roughly equivalent to some other dealers' VG or
VG-minus, and to others' B, or B-minus. You will generally not see
us list records below this condition, unless scarcity & demand
compel us. In decreasing desirability, the remainder of our grading scale is:
V- (or Very Good-minus), G+ (or Good-Plus), G (or Good) (which,
really, isn't so great), G- (or good-minus), F (or Fair), and P
(or Poor). You will not normally see records in these condition
descriptions in our listings, as they all describe what we consider
to be only a stop-gap copy at best - - just so the collector can say
he DOES have the LP INDIVIDUAL SIDES - - Each side of every LP is graded individually;
if only one grade is listed, this means both sides of that LP grade the
same. In a case where the sides differ in condition, 2 grades will be
listed, with a slash-mark (/) between them
(for example, E/-, meaning, of course, one side grades straight
Excellent, and the other, Excellent-minus) (or E-/V+, would mean,
of course, Excellent-minus over Very Good Plus (still a pretty
desirable LP) , and so on....
LP SETS - - In the case of a multiple-record set, again, each side
of each LP is assigned its own grade, and listed as such - - so,
for example, 6E would signify a 3-disc set, in which ALL six sides
are graded Excellent or, say, 7E/2-/V+ would then signify a
five-disc set, in which seven of the sides graded Excellent, two
graded at Excellent-minus, and the other one, at Very-Good-Plus....
We do not automatically down-grade an LP for paper-rubs or light
scuffs - - only for scratches. In our experience, often-times a
scuff or paper-rub, or discoloration in the vinyl might not sound at
all. A further distinction is made between feel-able scratches, and
those scratches which are visible, but cannot be felt by careful,
gentle probing. Any LP graded above VG should contain ONLY
non-feel-able scratches (if any at all); if there is a feel-able
scratch on an LP side, that side should be graded VG or lower.
COVERS - - We do not grade record covers, preferring,
instead, to simply list any particular defects, OR merits of a
particular cover: defects would include sticker-pulls, seam-splits,
cut-out holes, browning or discoloration of the cover, etc....If, on
the other hand, a cover is like-new in appearance, that, too might
be mentioned, as that is also out of the ordinary.
Shipping Costs and Restrictions ***IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING!***
Find your location below to learn how we'll ship to you. The shipping costs we provide here are estimations, and should not be taken as exact. Note that double/triple LPs and box sets cost extra to ship. Ebay's shipping calculator is incorrect so please kindly disregard it. Here are the correct shipping rates for your location:• Continental US - Media Mail or Priority Mail are recommended for buyers located in the United States and are provided as shipping options during checkout. We gladly combine shipping cost to make your purchase as economical as possible and charge close to actual USPS shipping rates to ship.
• Canada - Shipping costs start around $12.00 US for the first single LP. For each additional LP this cost increases by about $3.00 US up to 4 pounds (~ 1.8 Kg). Anything over 1.8 Kg will have to be shipped via USPS Priority Mail.
• China and Russia - Unfortunately due to many packages not getting to China and Russia we no longer ship by First Class International. The only way we will ship to China and Russia is by Priority Mail Express. So very sorry about this but we can no longer afford to keep giving away free stuff and also pay for shipping as we are a very small mom and pop operation.
• Italy We DO NOT ship to Italy due to an unusually high number of packages which disappeared before reaching their buyers. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you.
• International - USPS First Class International (FCI) and USPS Priority Mail International are the shipping methods we offer for reaching our international buyers. Costs for First Class start at about $16.00 for the first single LP and for each additional LP increases by roughly $4.00 up to a maximum of 4 lbs (1.8 kg) for most countries. However, if the package weight exceeds 4 lbs USPS Priority Mail is the only option. Please check with us first to make sure that you are one of the countries we ship FCI to.
Please note that although eBay has a shipping calculator, for international fees its values are often incorrect. Most of the time the actual shipping cost will be greatly reduced from eBay's estimate. **IMPORTANT – PLEASE WAIT FOR US TO SEND AN INVOICE TO YOU BEFORE PAYING. WE DO THIS USUALLY WITHIN 30 MINUTES AFTER THE LAST ITEM OF AN AUCTION ENDS. THANK YOU – FAILURE TO WAIT MAY MEAN THAT YOU PAID THE WRONG SHIPPING COST AND ADJUSTMENTS WILL HAVE TO BE MADE BEFORE WE CAN SHIP TO YOU.***
