I don't know if you've heard this one, or if you're just generally looking at Nina Simone albums right now. If you've heard it, you might agree that it's really special, one of the most atmospheric and alive-sounding and introspective records ever.
I'm pricing this so it can be listened to; I think on vinyl it's a real experience, part of our culture, and it should be shared.
For once I haven't delved into matrix numbers and all that; the label design tells me it's early, but I don't know whether it's from 1959 or a few years later. Certainly it's one of the first masterings.
She's just...something else.
The sleeve is as you see it, a pretty average VG+, no splits or anything like that.
As for the vinyl, side 1 is nice and quiet, but side 2 has some surface noise...not bad but I can't call it any better than VG+ overall. (Actually I think all it may need is a cleaning.)
Bless you for listening to this irreplacable person.
