Shelly Manne At The Black Hawk, Vol. 1
Contemporary S7577 Original US Black Label with Deep Groove
As with all Contemporary records from this era, sound much better in Stereo as the mono masters were compressed and equalized. Steve Hoffman says: "I?ve listened to the mono master recordings of these albums and they sound a bit pinched compared to their binaural counterparts. The mono tapes had a bit of compression and EQ done to them during recording (like any major studio would)..."

Please make use of the zoom feature provided to see a magnified view of the pictures. With grading being a subjective matter pictures are an objective way to evaluate for yourself. 
All records visually graded. When in doubt, Play-graded on on a restored Thorens TD 124 with an SME 3012 and an Ortofon SPU Meister.  Sound of mono vinyl will improve when played with a proper mono cartridge, I recommend Ortofon A or C. 

Dont hesitate to ask any questions. My priority is satisfied customers. 

Bid with complete confidence - no quibble money-back guarantee if youre not happy with the item.


Shipping
For any items, small or big, I will spend all the time needed to insure adequate packaging. I try to be environmentally friendly and re use as much packaging as possible. 
Shipping is not 4 dollars to USA but 22. Please wait for invoice until payment.
Packages will be sent registered. 
All records are packaged outside their sleeve in a protective plastic. The same goes for printed inner sleeves. I use very heavy boxes with dimensions to protect corners. I want you to recieve records as I want them to be sent to me. 
I ship regular, registred mail, at cost. Postage is unfortunately expensive. Express, UPS and DHL are available with special agreement - please contact me. 
Please understand that I cannot be held responsible for any delays caused by shipping companies, or any other issues once a record leaves me. If you want special instructions as for insurance value, customs declaration etc, I will do my best to service. 
Also understand that I cannot be held responsible for any additional cost (customs, duty, VAT...) caused by your country's regulation. 
However, I will make the best effort to make your transaction easy and positive.
If you have any issues upon receiving the vinyl please get in contact with me first before leaving negative feedback and we will take care of them for you. 

About me
Im a long time collector always evolving and keeping my collection relevant to my tastes. I am also picking up records I believe someone else may appreciate. When you buy from me, you are buying from someone who care about the music as much as you do.
I have an extensive collection, and are allways looking for a few special items. I am more than interested in trading. So if you have spare jazz, especially Spiritual, European to the freer side and elusive Blue Notes/New Jazz etc, please let me know. I am also interested in some soul and some Psychedelics and Kraut.
