 ART BLAKEY QUINTET "A Night At Birdland - Vol.1" BLUE NOTE (cat # BLP 1521) NY address USA RVG MONO Vinyl LP
A Division Of Liberty Records, N.Y. press
Clifford Brown - trumpet Lou Donaldson - alto sax Horace Silver - piano Curly Russell - bass Art Blakey - drums 
The vinyl is G+ with nice luster & shine - nice thick wax. - The white / blue labels are clean with a hint of spindle rubs. There are visual scuffs / scratches especially on side 2. There is also a slight warp which doesn't create an issue on playback - no clunks or wobble noises. The LP was test played from start to finish - no skips. The sound is actually quite good. There were ticks & pops at the start of Side 2 & a few crackles at the end of side 1 (in the crowd noise). Overall the quality of the sound was quite acceptable & the dynamics where excellent.
The  jacket has a rub spot where a label was removed - a couple pencil marks on the backside 'record' next to a few tracks, & some spine crinkling. The vinyl is housed in a poly lined inner sleeve.
Shipping is $4.00 for USA buyers.
All the LP's shipped with outer poly sleeves for protection.
