Be sure to look at my other auctions!  I have many great titles for sale this week.


Artist: Miles Davis 
Title: Kind Of Blue
Label/Catalog #:  Columbia CS 8163
Mono/Stereo: Stereo
Details:  6 Eye pressing with deep groove labels. This lp has been cleaned on a Degritter ultrasonic cleaner.


Record condition:  EX. Very clean copy! Grooves show a full gloss with only some light sleeve traces, hard to find in this condition. Play graded in full. The classic introduction plays quite nicely, better than the vast majority I’ve heard. The first 2 tracks play EX to NM. Blue In Green has some very light crackle but still at least a strong VG+. Side 2 mostly plays EX but has some light crackle heard briefly. Overall a marvelous copy of this iconic album!

Cover: VG+. Front and back look great. Wear on edges but no splits. Small tears on back cover along spine edge, see photos. 

Labels: See photos
