Up for your consideration is "The Sun Ra Arkestra Meets Salah Ragab in Egypt plus the Cairo Jazz Band" on the Praxis label, catalog #CM 106.
The LP is VG with lots of hairline scuffs and sleeve marks....it looks much worse than it is. It plays great....solid VG+ with loads of fidelity and very little surface noise. The cover is G with myriad issues including (but not limited to) seam wear, ringwear creasing,and price sticker residue. Still, in the new plastic sleeve, it displays OK, and the record is musically a gem. This is one I'd like to keep, but I need money more than I need cool records.
Be sure to check out my other auctions this week for more jazz....and Sun Ra, in particular. Win multiple records to save money on combined shipping.
Shipping is $4 in the US (or $8 for Priority Mail), $14 to Canada and $24 to the rest of the world. Additional LPs are $1 each in the US, $3 to Canada and $6 each to the rest of the world. I pack records outside of the covers to protect the seams from splitting. They are shipped in dedicated record mailers with padded inserts. I spend a lot of time and money on shipping with care so your record looks as good when it arrives as it did when it left.
