RARE Hank Mobley Blue Note 1568 New York 23 Label Mono Ear RVG Holy Grail
I lucked out and found a large collection of highly desirable and valuable jazz records. I tried to photograph any blemishes or damage on them and described any issues I could see or hear. You can hear for yourself the quality of the vinyl by listening to the audio samples included. I have an Ion USB turntable which I hope was adequate. I also played ones with more apparent scratches or scuffs to listen for noise, on a high end Tecniques turntable. I will provide the name of the former owner to any buyers if desired. The description of the LP follows the audio samples and images so be sure to scroll down. Among the movie related items (vintage posters including from Creepshow and Dawn of the Dead, scripts and production material including scripts, production still photos and candid amateur pictures and some film) I found about 10 record boxes filled with classic jazz albums from Blue Note, Prestige, and other major companies. If there was a scratch, scuff, or other blemish, I recorded that section for you to get an idea as to condition. The records would definitely benefit from a thorough cleaning and will have much better audio quality when cleaned. I did use a velvet magnetic buff to do a quick cleaning but otherwise I thought it best to leave them as found and leave the cleaning up to the new owner as everyone has their own preferred methods for cleaning. Another note is that the former owner put Scotch tape on the wear/stress points of the records and sleeves. On most of the albums this was done as reinforcement and not repair. On some there is scotch tape repairs. If the cover is important to you, and I didnt take pictures of the edges, feel free to contact me for additional images. On the reinforced albums, I would think that the tape could be removed if desired. On most of the covers there is reinforcement tape on the corners and on the sleeve. He also folded the sleeve corners, probably to prevent the record from slipping out. Please wait for me to invoice you before paying. This listing is for a super scarce copy of Hank Mobley, Blue Note 1568. This record has the rare Side 2 label with New York 23. I read that they believe that there were only about 200 of these produced. The record plays through without skipping, both sides. Side one has light scuffing with a bigger scuff at the end of track two and through track three. I recorded my sample through that area. I dont think it affected the audio quality but listen for yourself. Side two has a scratch that starts in track one and transitions into a scuff through track two. Again, I recorded through that area in my sample. I believe I sampled the end of track one and almost to the end of track two so you should be able to hear any defects. The cover is okay with some toning to the white. There is tape reinforcement on the corners and a tape repair on the title edge. Looks like the tear under the tape is about 2 long. The dead wax has all the identifying markings of this being a first pressing (not to mention the NY 23) with the ear-mark, RG and appropriate matrix numbers. This is one of the rarest jazz LPs ever and could be the prize of any collection. See photos for condition and feel free to ask questions. In some cases Parcel Post will be cheaper (but take longer to deliver) so please be aware of your options. The weights I use are, somewhat, estimated.
