MILES DAVIS...PORGY AND BESS RARE 7" ORIGINAL BLACK VINYL 3 TRACK E.P. ON FONTANA RECORDS CAT. NO. 467 079 TE/TFE 17247 FROM 1958. TRACKS RECORDED JULY AND AUGUST 1958.

THE VINYL IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THERE IS THE MINUTEST CRACKLE IN A FEW QUIET PARTS, BUT IT IS BARELY AUDIBLE, AND CAN MAINLY BE HEARD AT THE END OF EACH SIDE JUST BEFORE THE RUN OUT GROOVE. THE PUSH OUT CENTRE LABELS ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, WITH JUST A SMALL SPINDLE MARK AROUND THE HOLE ON SIDE 1, BUT APART FROM THIS THEY ARE VERY CLEAN WITH NO MARKS. NO JUMPS, NO STICKS, NO CLICKS.

THE LAMINATED PICTURE SLEEVE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE LAMINATE APPEARS TO BE INTACT THROUGHOUT. THERE IS A SMALL HINT OF RINGWEAR ON THE REVERSE AND ON THE FRONT WHEN TILTED TO THE LIGHT, BUT BOTH ARE VERY FAINT. NO MARKS, NO TEARS, NO SEAM SPLITS, NO CREASES.

TRACKS AS FOLLOWS:

1. SUMMERTIME

2. THERE'S A BOAT THAT'S LEAVING SOON FOR NEW YORK

3. BESS, YOU IS MY WOMAN NOW

SINGLE AND COVER ARE IN STUNNING CONDITION THROUGHOUT AND IN PARTICULAR FOR A RECORD WHICH IS 57 YEARS OLD THIS YEAR.

PLAYERS ARE TOO NUMBEROUS TOO MENTION BUT ARE LISTED.
