Mega Rare LP of Freddie Hubbard - Ready for Freddie (Blue Note 4085 - mono) Original blue and white labels with New York USA address, Van Gelder and ear on both sides. (no deeep groove rings on this one)  One of Hubbard's best early Blue Note LPs also features Wayne Shorter, McCoy Tyner, Elvin Jones and others in an acknowledged Blue Note classic that no serious jazz collector can be without.

The LP is in VG+ condition with marks that will make some noise and with much if not most of the original shine  - not for the audiophile, but certainly not trashed either - still, you will hear some noise on this one.  The cover is in VG+ condition with general age/shelf wear, but NO splits, NO tape, NO writing, NO stickers, NO stamps.  NOT perfect, but how many of these do you see any more? 

The LP will be carefully packed using professional materials (over twenty years experience safely selling jazz LPs around the world). 

Shipping discounts available for multiple items sent together to any country.

Mailing costs have gone up.  Postal rates have increased dramatically, the cost of record mailers has increased and e-bay now charges a fee for mailing (in addition to Paypal’s fees on mailing payments).   I have done what I can to keep mailing costs down, but I have no control over these increases.

International mailing costs:   International overseas mailing (Europe, Japan, Asia etc…) for one LP would be $25.00.  This reflects increases in postage costs, e-bay fees on shipping, Paypal fees as well as mailers and packing materials.   One LP to Canada would be $18.00

US mailing costs:  Media mail rate as calculated to a U.S. address.  This reflects increases in postage costs, e-bay fees on shipping, Paypal fees as well as the cost of mailers and packing materials.  

Paypal accepted or write for preferred payment options.  Serious bidders only - payment must be received in ten days from notification.  All items are guaranteed upon return in condition sent, but mailing costs are NOT refundable.  Thanks for your interest and good luck.
