The 1964, mono (A-69) release of Yusef Lateef's "Live At Pep's" on Impulse! records. See my record grading info, below:
Vinyl details: Both sides of this are play-graded --  S1: Tr 1 ("Sister Mamie") has surface noise during the intro and one "pop" approx 40 sec in.  The remainder of Tr 1 and Tr 2 & 3 are a joy to listen to.  S2: Tr 1 ("See See Rider") has 2 "pops" early in the first 30 sec or so.  These are quieter than S1. The remainder of Tr 1 and Tr 2, 3, & 4 are wonderful. There is slight background noise between tracks and the record has some scuffs and scratches that cannot be felt and do not translate to noise. minor warp does not affect play
Vinyl grade: EX Cover details: Front cover has some buffing of the shiny finish and a scratch beneath Yusef's glasses and near the middle-top
very minimal edge wear except for the record insert opening, which is worn from use (see photos) some corner wear at the top and bottom left corners (see photos) back of cover has some slight scratches and minor bends at upper right back cover has similar buffing of the shiny finish, as well interior of gatefold is very clean, except for near the insert opening which has some soiling from handling original inner sleeve is very good, both sides Cover grade: VG+ Please see photos for best detail. No returns. Glad to consider offers.
Thanks for looking.

The Record Grading System I Use – I grade most records visually.  I do NOT clean and play-grade, unless noted in the listing.

 

•      Assumed Mint or Near Mint  (AM or ANM) –  I only give this grade if the record is sealed and new.

 

•    Near Mint (NM or NM-) Vinyl –  No visual defects or signs of wear.   Not new, but still maintains the “sheen” of a new record.  Center-hole has no visible markings, suggesting minimal play.

•    Near Mint (NM or NM-) Cover –  has no folds or bends, no edge wear, no seams are split, and there are no other noticeable markings or defects, including no round holes, snipped corners, etc. which signify a “cut-out” (a record that was no longer in active distribution by the label). Cut-outs are exactly like any other record, except that they were not then a part of the record company's catalogue. 

•    Excellent (EX) Vinyl –   A record that was carefully handled and taken care of.  Surface may have very mild scuffs, very minor imperfections, or light scratches which are not likely to affect listening enjoyment.

•    Excellent (EX) Cover – may have slight bends to corners, or minor “ring wear”; no significant seam damage – may be a “cut-out” – see above.  Very few minor imperfections and nothing that detracts from looking at and enjoying the artwork, text, etc.

•    Very Good (VG) Vinyl –  from a fellow ebay-er whose site I can no longer locate:  “With a 'Very Good' record, surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, or light scratches (deep enough to feel with the pad of your finger) that will affect the sound in minor ways – the record is still enjoyable to listen to.” 

•    Very Good (VG) Cover – the cover may have bends or significant edge or ring wear or minor scuffing.  May have tape, writing or stickers (or their residue) attached.  May have seam damage.  However, it will have two or three of these problems, not all of them.  Be sure to see photos for specifics.

•    Good (G) or Fair (F) Vinyl  – A record with either of these grades will have background noise, scratches or other visible wear or imperfections.  I don't call this a desirable record, unless you just can't find it elsewhere.

•     Good (G) or Fair (F) Cover – Several issues, as described in the listing

NOTE about Promo Copies or White Label Copies – If you get a promo or white label copy of a record and it's in NM or EX condition, consider yourself lucky!  These were the first records pressed from a new master casting, and so the precision of the die had not yet been worn by many, many vinyl pressings.  Sound fidelity from these pressings is the best it can be – better than any retail version.  Promo copies were once illegal to sell; they went to radio stations and reviewers and “important people”, usually before the record was shipped for retail distribution.
