Miles Davis In A Silent Way - Condition is Used.  Shipped with USPS Media Mail.
From a collector's vault, an old Miles Davis record.  Jacket is pretty bad looking. Got wet at some point. Color worn off (see pics).  Dinged on bottom. Dirty on back. Record is free of scuffs and scratches. Good labels and little spindle damage indicating played a little and handled well. Dead wax number is stamped XSM 150309-1J followed later by an etched T and shallower X. The music is deep stuff for the true jazz student. Dreamy - sounds are like wisps of smoke. Miles was doing what he wanted to do, as he usually did. Accompanied by who's who of jazz, Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, Wayne Shorter, etc.
Please understand that the records I am selling were not collected by me so I do not know their history. I am no kind of expert in music or records. I research each item on Discogs and Fosman's Dead Wax book for all the information in the post. If I have information from Discogs, Fosman or another seller's post that a record like mine is a reissue, I indicate that. I listen to all 45rpm records and parts of any 33rpm that looks potentially damaged. I judge them according to Discogs standards and give the reasons for my rating so buyers can second guess me. My quality ratings are not certified in any way. If the difference between an original edition and a reissue is indicated by a tiny detail not shown on Discogs, Fosman or by another seller, I may not discover that. I sell in the belief that collectors of vintage records are more knowledgeable than me about what they collect and know what they are looking at. I am glad to answer any questions. Because collectors may know the true value of a record, while I do not, I start at a very reasonable price and let bidders set the true value, which is often much higher than I thought or much lower. If an item gets no bids after a while I discard it even though I originally thought it was worth something.
