The Jazz Messengers with Art Blakey, Horace Silver & Hank Mobley “At The Cafe Bohemia Volume 2” 1958 3rd (?) pressing Blue Note (# BLP 1508 mono) in a coated cardboard sleeve. The record grading is Very Good Plus (VG+). On Side 1/track 3 very early in the track there is ~15 second faint “static sounding” tick. There is no visible scratch, it’s something in the groove, but it only occurs for a very short time. The remainder of the track as well as the entire album plays EX with great fidelity and no ticks. That faint tick on S1/track 3 is the only reason for my grade, other than that, I’d grade the album EX overall. The following is on the runout groove:

Side 1): (etched) BN-LP-1508-A Plastylite ‘Ear’ RVG

Side 2): (etched) BN-LP-1508-B Plastylite ‘Ear’ RVG

The back cover is clean like the front with only some stains at the top and very mild age wear. The blank spine has just a little wear at the top. The top & bottom seams have some mild wear mostly at the corners and opening. It is very sturdy with no splits. (all reflected in the photos) All sales final.
