Hi! You're looking at a SUPERB condition vinyl LP originally issued on the Blue Note Records label in 1960 and featuring an outstanding April 17, 1960 session by alto saxophonist JACKIE McLEAN titled "Capuchin Swing"--the quintet recording features BLUE MITCHELL on trumpet, WALTER BISHOP, Jr. on piano, PAUL CHAMBERS on bass, and ART TAYLOR on drums.  The LP is a Blue Note records issue pressed in the mid- to late 1970s on the blue and white label with the serial number BST 84038, is a TRUE STEREO issue (the Electronically Re-Recorded Stereo indication on the upper right of the back cover is NOT accurate--this is common with true Stereo issues of this vintage) and was made in the United States.
This LP is in SUPERB condition and the vinyl is in NEAR MINT condition and plays beautifully, with just at paper scuffs that do not affect play and NO other significant imperfections; the cover is also in NEAR MINT condition with just a few light paper scuffs that should not affect play and NO other significant imperfections; the cover is in NM- (Ex) condition with very light ringwear on the front surface, a slight ding and crease on the lower right corner of the front cover, light dings on the upper and lower center spine edge, ,a very slight, 1/4 inch split on the lower opening edge and just light shelfwear but NO other significant flaws --it's NOT a cutout!  The ORIGINAL BLUE NOTE  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!

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