This auction is from the same collection of impeccable condition lp's I've been selling from, but we are now coming to the most collectible parts. In most cases, these are still among the finest copies imaginable. Each one will be graded individually, but many of them are just as pristine as the discs from the late 60's and early 70's.

Artist: Steve Lacy
Title: Soprano Sax
Label/Catalog #:  Prestige PRLP 7125
Mono/Stereo:  Mono
Details: First pressing. 446 West 50th labels, deep groove, RVG, "AB" etched on both sides, meaning this was pressed at Abbey pressing plant.  This has been cleaned on a Degritter ultrasonic cleaner.


Record condition:  Visually side 1 is VG++ and side 2 is VG+. Both sides play EX! Side 1 is very clean. Side 2 has only some light sleeve scuffs and still glossy, strong VG+. Play graded in full at EX. Fantastic player, mostly playing NM with only some slight crackle heard on a seldom occasion. Should please virtually all listeners.

Cover: VG++. There is minor wear on top seam in the center and at opening edge, and a tiny spot on lower spine corner. Otherwise the seams are completely clean and this is more like EX. Great set, tough to find in this nice of condition!

Labels: See photos

VG++ THE RECORD RETAINS MUCH OF ITS ORIGINAL SHINE, FEW LIGHT SURFACE MARKS AND OR LIGHT SCRATCHES MAY BE NOTED ON FAIRLY CLOSE EXAMINATION

VG+ THE RECORD STILL RETAINS SOME SHINE, SURFACE MARKS & SCRATCHES MAY OCCUR BUT ARE LIMITED AND TEND TO BE MODERATE TO LIGHT.  RECORD WILL PLAY VERY WELL WITH VERY LIGHT SURFACE NOISE MOSTLY HEARD DURING A QUIET PASSAGE.
