This is a very Rare first pressing on Blue Note records of Hank Mobley with Art Blakey, Wynton Kelly, Paul Chambers "Soul Station"


1965 Blue Note, Mono


RZD stamp and hand Etched "P" aka "ear" in runout on both sides.


Labels slightly off center (not unusual for Blue Notes as I understand it)


Side 2 seems to have slightly deeper grooves unless my eyes are playing tricks on me.


Front cover says

4031 Blue Note with "The Finest in Jazz since 1939"

It is super glossy


Back cover says "High Fidelity" and " Blue Note 4031 across the top. Very slight aging here on lower back taking this otherwise sharp beauty from NM to EX.


The vinyl is clean and beautiful. Has one light smudge near the run out groove. I dropped the needle there (Blue Ortofon on custom U-Turn).


The inner is the 1966 label inner with about 48 other Blue Note albums pictured across both sides.


This will be shipped safely, alone, and with the necessary insurance.


No returns.


Any questions, please ask. I spent a while looking carefully at this one
