Hi! You're looking at a SUPERB condition vinyl 1957 LP on the Prestige Records label (reissued in 1986 as part of the great Original Jazz Classics OJC series) and a classic jazz recording by pianist, composer and arranger TADD DAMERON with tenor saxophonist JOHN COLTRANE titled "Mating Call"--the LP features JOHN SIMMONS on bass and PHILLY JOE JONES on drums. The LP is a 1986 Prestige Records / Original Jazz Classics issue with the serial number OJC-212 (originally issued in 1959 as PRLP-7070), a MONO issue and was made in the United States.
This LP is in SUPERB condition and the vinyl is in NEAR MINT condition and should play beautifully, with a couple of slight scuffs that should not affect play and NO other significant flaws; the cover is also in NM conditio with a tiny recording date written on the lower left corner of the back surface and a few slight creases on the spine end but NO other imperfections--it's NOT a cutout! The original plain white inner sleeve is also included and in beautiful shape.
Please Note:  I CAN ship records outside of the United States but will need to get a weight estimate based on the final PACKAGED weight for this record--I cannot ship for the $4.00 U.S. Media Rate and the quoted International Shipping Rate may differ from the final shipping rate due to packaged weight differences so please wait to make payment until a final invoice is received. Thanks!

Very Good Plus (VG+) A record that has had a number of plays and may have some superficial scuffs, possibly mild to moderate spindle marks and / or possibly hairline scratches on the vinyl, which may produce some intermittent pops and possibly very light background noise.

Very Good (VG) A record that has generally been well cared for, but has seen a fair amount of play, with some scuffing. hairline scratches, spindle marks and / or light scratches.  Should play through well, with the possibility of more pops and more background noise.

Very Good Minus (VG-)  A record with significant scuffs, scratches, and spindle marks that should play through with moderate pops and surface noise, possibly of some duration.

Good (G) A record with will play through, but with significant pops, substantial background noise, and possibly intermittent skipping.

Poor (P) A record with MAJOR issues that will interfere with play, and will possibly be unplayable in part due to damage (I'll only offer an LP in this condition if it's an extreme rarity and / or for cover art display purposes).


A fantastic find, and a beautiful copy of this vinyl LP!
