Miles at his most blissed out
"A foreshadowing of the area
between rock and jazz that he would further explore with 1970's hypnotic
Bitches Brew, this was Miles' first album to feature a full-blown
electric approach. Incorporating elements of classical sonata form, both
of the lengthy cuts featured here defy convention with 3 distinct
"movements" in which harmony, rhythm and melody take a back seat to
impressionistic texture. Listen closely, and you can hear the earliest
inklings of modern-day fusion on Shhh/Peaceful and the equally spacey in
a Silent Way/It's About That Time."
Each record is ultrasonically cleaned to remove deep set factory debris from new records, and stubborn dirt and use from original pressings. Vinyl is sent out with protective plastic outer sleeve and anti-static inner sleeve
The Vinyl Rating System I Use note: all vinyl has been ultrasonically clean no matter the rating
SEALED: Jacket sealed shut in shrink wrap; disc sold ungraded or "as is"
Near Mint (NM): Appears unplayed and will bear no marks, sleeve scuffs, or scratches. I seldom use this grade.
Excellent (EX): May have one or two visible imperfections (i.e. sleeve scuffs, faint scratches, or other superficial marks) that will not affect play.
Very Good Plus (VG+): A few visible imperfections. These may include sleeve scuffs, light scratches, or other superficial marks.
Very Good (VG): Same imperfections found on VG+ records but in slightly greater numbers. Records graded VG+ and above will typically not have any scratches that are deep enough to be felt with a fingernail.
Very Good Minus (VG-): A number of visible imperfections; the presence of a considerable number of light scratches will force a VG- grade, as will the presence of significant isolated defects such as scratches deep enough to be felt with a fingernail.
Good (G) : Pervasive imperfections of varying degrees including both light scratches and scratches deep enough to be felt with a fingernail. G+ and G- are used to indicate stronger and weaker copies within this range.
Please consider that there may be small examples of superficial surface dust that is present during the photographing of the vinyl.

Blissed out and mellow electric Miles. Quiet vinyl and flawless pressing.
