Artist: Freddie Hubbard 
Title: Breaking Point 
Label/Catalog #:  Blue Note BST 84172
Mono/Stereo: Stereo 
Details: First pressing. NY USA labels, Van Gelder, Ear. With a Blue Note inner sleeve. This lp has been cleaned on a Degritter ultrasonic cleaner.


Record condition:  Visually VG+ and plays EX! Visually there is a nice gloss and some light wear on vinyl, nothing serious. Play graded in full. Plays EX almost fully. The quietest moments play with some occasional slight background crackle, hardly worth mentioning. Very clean player from beginning to end! 

Cover: VG++. Not far from NM-. Slight rubbing on top and bottom seams, the rest is superb. Fantastic set! 

Labels: See photos
