Hi! You're looking at a SUPERB and virtually FLAWLESS condition Vinyl LP which is a 1995 AUDIOPHILE issue on the Blue Note Records label released as part of the LIMITED EDITION "Blue Note Connoisseur Series" pressed on 180 gram vinyl and featuring a classic 1960 recording by trumpeter LEE MORGAN titled "Leeway"--the musicians featured on this quintet recording include JACKIE McLEAN on alto saxophone, BOBBY TIMMONS on piano, PAUL CHAMBERS on bass, and ART BLAKEY on drums. The LP is a Blue Note Records album released in 1995 as part of the LIMITED EDITION "Blue Note Connoisseur Series", bears the serial number B1-32089 (original serial number BST-84034), is a Stereo issue (the Electronically Re-Recorded to Simulate Stereo label on the upper right corner of the back cover is NOT correct and this is a TRUE STEREO recording) and was made in the United States.
This LP Set is in SUPERB and virtually FLAWLESS condition and the vinyl is in NEAR MINT condition and should play beautifully, with NO imperfections (the LP has only been played ONCE); the cover is in strong NEAR MINT- condition with a slight crease on the lower right tip of the front cover and NO other significant flaws--it's NOT a cutout! The original audiophile rice-paper sleeve is also inlcuded and in beautiful shape.
Vinyl Grading Standards (unless otherwise indicated, LPs are visually graded)
Mint (or M) – Sealed and effectively perfect with no signs of wear or ever having been played.
Near Mint -- A record with only the slightest evidence of ever having been handled.
Very Good Plus Plus (VG++) A very clean record that has no marks aside from slight scuffs and abrasions caused by removal from a paper inner sleeve or perhaps a few marks on the label caused by a turntable spindle.
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).
