LEE MORGAN - TARU - BLUE NOTE - 1ST PRESSING! - EX - JAZZ
"Taru" - Lee Morgan - Blue Note LT 1031 - previously unreleased 1968 session - 1st pressing!!  Do not be fooled by the recently reissued version of this LP with the same cover - this is the better sounding, original release!
LP Grade - VG+ (strong) to EX - light, mostly inconsistent surface noise - strong player!
Cover Grade - VG+ (weak) - normal edge/rubbing wear, yellowing, stickers, highlighting of text on back cover

I have been listening to and collecting jazz LPs for several years.  Some of the LPs I have listed for sale come from my personal collection or are the result of some serious crate digging!!
Most of the LPs have been cleaned on a VPI record cleaning machine and are play-graded on a properly set up Lenco L75/PTP4 turntable, with ATP-12T tonearm.
I am known as a conservative grader (check my feedback).  I generally adhere to the common grades of NM-, EX, VG+, VG. VG-, G+.   I will rarely use NM- for an opened LP - my EX and sometimes my VG+ (strong) are other sellers' NM-.  I will use additional descriptors (strong), (solid), (weak) to reflect slight differences in grade.  
A note on grading:  My LP grading is based on the sonic playback as opposed to the look of the LP surface.  If there is a feelable mark or scratch I will note it and/or its affect on playback.  Most LPs will not be perfectly flat and may have some degree of warp. Any LPs with a warp that unduly influence playback will be described.
This item will be shipped in a cardboard LP mailer with inserts.  Media mail shipping with tracking in continental US will be $4.50.  Combined shipping is available for multiple purchases.
International buyers should contact me before bidding to get an estimated shipping quote for your country.  
I reserve the right to not ship to certain countries or buyers with low and/or negative feedback.
Sealed LPs cannot be returned after they are opened.
Shipping/Questions Note:  I will be out of town and not able to check on sales or questions between March 15 and March 20.  Also, there will be a slight delay in shipping out orders (but well within my standard 5-day window) as I will not be able ship until beginning on March 21.  
Thank you.
