Dexter Gordon - A Swingin’ Affair
Catalog Number: MMBST-84133 STEREO, 2LP - 45 rpm, Originally released as part of the Blue Note Definitive 45 RPM Reissue Series in 2011. This is number 0026 in the series. Sealed and assumed Mint. There is a split in the plastic all along the bottom but remains sealed.
A rare, special edition set of 45rpm first production records in original numbered artwork jackets with a commemorative Plastylite test pressing label! As an homage to Blue Note, the MMJ team pressed some of these early, first run production copies as a special edition with test pressing labels.
These were actually the first pressings (from the first stampers greenlighted for use), original albums in a numbered jacket featuring this commemorative label. Only a few sets were made for reviewers, record executives, MMJ team members and promotional consideration and were never offered for sale. While the records feature a test pressing label, they were the first numbered sets off the original, first stampers.
