Thelonius Monk Plays Duke Ellington. Vinyl RLP 12-201. Riverside. White label.
Vinyl: Side 2 begins with 3 pops/ and plays with a crackle - pro clean might sort it. Sonically very good though if you can bear the surface noise. Scratch on track 3, side 2 also gives a few pops too. Side 1 has crackle but and a long double hairline but does not seem to sound apart from one pop!
Sleeve: A nice sturdy sleeve that is all intact. Reverse has some foxing/ age staining and price has been Biroed on by the dealer top left (see pic). Flipbacks are good. Nice front with minimal staining but some age dinks - nothing serious. Nice spine.
Inner: White, generic. Partial seam split on one side. Dealers stamp.
I will post in poly protective sleeve and record mailer using Royal Mail. If buying from mainland Europe please ask for an invoice so that I can reduce the postage.
The records that I sell are from my dad's collection. He was an EMI salesman between the 50' s and 80's, so therefore I can guarantee the provenance of Factory Sample stickers. I tend to grade the records visually (unless there is an obvious need to listen) but will happily test play if requested. Generally I find that the older ones (late 50's / early 60's) play with an old vinyl crackle! I clean each record before selling.
International purchasers should please ask for an invoice so that I can adjust the postage accordingly.
I can post up to 4 single LPs together. Please ask for an invoice so that the postage cost can be adjusted.
