Dive into the rich tapestry of American jazz with the 2-volume set of Duke Ellington's NAACP Concert records, a true collector's gem from 1951. Each LP, spinning at 33 RPM, captures the essence of Ellington's legendary big band with performances that showcase the interplay of piano, guitar, saxophone, trombone, flute, and drums. The records are a testament to the enduring legacy of Ellington's artistry, presented in a classic black vinyl material for an authentic listening experience.
The records come in their original cardboard sleeves, reflecting the era's aesthetic with a timeless design. Released by a rare label, the inlay and sleeve are graded as Excellent (EX) and Near Mint (NM or M-), indicating careful handling over the years. This set is an English-language release from France, featuring the original cover and inner sleeve, making it an alluring piece for both music enthusiasts and vintage record collectors alike.
