FOR SALE IN THIS AUCTION: THE BILL EVANS THE COMPLETE RIVERSIDE RECORDINGS R 018 LIMITED EDITION BOX SET (5,000 ALBUMS) 1984 FANTASY INC.
CONDITION OF THE RECORDS AND BOX SET:
THE 18 RECORDS HAVE ALL BEEN VISUALLY GRADED. AFTER GOING THROUGH EACH RECORD, I HAVE FOUND THE FOLLOWING FLAWS ABOUT THE RECORDS THAT I WANT THE POTENTIAL BUYER TO BE AWARE OF.... IN MY OPINION MANY OF THESE RECORDS OR SIDES OF EACH RECORD HAVE NOT BEEN PLAYED. I PLAYED THE RECORDS THAT I SAW A SCRATCH OR MINOR HAIRLINE SCRATCH, PAPER SCUFF ETC, AT BEST.... HERE IS THE BREAKDOWN: RECORD ONE IS SLIGHTLY WARPED BUT PLAYED AND SOUNDED GREAT. SIDE 16 HAIRLINE SCRATCH PLAYED THROUGH AND SOUNDED GREAT. SIDE 19 FIRST 30 SECONDS SOME CRACKLING NOISE. SIDE 20 LIGHT MARKS SHOW AND AGAIN CRACKLING CAN BE HEARD DURING THE PIANO SOLO/QUIET PARTS. SIDE 22 FIRST 90 SECONDS SOME CRACKLING NOISE THEN GOES AWAY. SIDE 28 HAIRLINE SCRATCH THROUGH SONGS 2,3,4, NOT HEARABLE BECAUSE ALL INSTRUMENTS ARE PLAYING. SIDE 29 SONGS 1 AND 2 SCRATCH NOTICEABLE LIGHT CRACKLING SINCE IT'S ONLY PIANO PLAYING. SIDE 32 1ST SONG DEEP SCRATCH CAN HEAR POPS/CRACKLING FOR FIRST 2 MINUTES OF SONG THEN IT GOES AWAY; THIS IS LIKE THE ONLY REAL SCRATCH ON ALL OF THE RECORDS THAT TRULY SHOWS BOTH VISUALLY AND AUDIBLY!!  RECORD 17 IS SLIGHTLY WARPED BUT PLAYS AND SOUNDS JUST FINE. OTHERWISE LIKE I SAY THE REST OF THE RECORDS IN THIS BOX SET ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION!! ALL THE RECORDS ARE VERY SHINY, AND AGAIN I'M CERTAIN SOME SIDES OF THESE RECORDS HAVE NEVER BEEN PLAYED; NO SPINDLE MARKS AND SUPER CLEAN. PERHAPS A GOOD CLEANING OF THESE RECORDS WILL TAKE THE CRACKLING/POPS OUT??
THE OUTER BOX SET IS M- OVERALL IN GREAT CONDITION. THE 16 PAGES ARE IN GOOD CONDITION AND YES THIS BOOKLET HAS BEEN LIGHTLY READ. THE ONLY THING I CAN SEE ARE SOME FINGER IMPRESSIONS MOST NOTICEABLE ON THE FRONT AND BACK COVER AND A FEW PAGES INSIDE. OVERALL VERY MINOR. (PLEASE SEE PHOTOS)
THIS PARTICULAR BOX SET DOES NOT COME IN OFTEN.... OVERALL ONE OF THE NICEST I'VE HAD. IF YOU'RE A BILL EVANS FAN THIS BOX SET IS A MUST.
I'LL BE HONEST I'M A STICKLER WHEN IT COMES TO GRADING..... SO REST ASSURE WHAT YOU ARE GETTING. I ONLY BUY VERY CLEAN CONDITION VINYL, THUSLY I WILL ONLY SELL VERY CLEAN CONDITION VINYL!!!! PLEASE SEE PHOTOS
PLEASE NOTE ANY GLARE IN THE PHOTO IS DUE TO THE SUNLIGHT WHEN TAKING THE PHOTOS.
ALL BOX SETS WILL BE PROFESSIONALLY PACKAGED.
THIS BOX SET COMES FROM A SMOKE FREE HOME.
