This one needs no introduction, especially on this board... I should perhaps just mention that "Blues in the night" was released in France on two different formats: an EP on Stax and this single on Atlantic. This last one, as it has already been said here is the most desirable way in a collector's point of view to get this track pressed on vinyl. Rarer and sounding better...
********
Record: strong EX Almost perfect. A couple of the smallest and thinest hairline scratches ever... Barely visible and having absolutely no occurence on sound quality. A few even smaller marks on begining's dead wax.
Labels: perfect exception made of the precedent owner's name written (nice writing with a thin pen) on "watermelon man" side. No other deterioration.
Sleeve: strong VG a badly removed sticker left its trace on front (see pic), moderate wear on upper and lower edges, light ringwear on front and back. Name written on back the same way it was written on one label. Otherwise, clean picture sleeve...
Sound check: Slight surface noise on the begining of "Blues in the night" that totally disappears in a very small delay. Otherwise perfect playability, taking all the benefits of an excellent pressing quality... I recorded "blues in the night" entirely and the first half of "Watermelon man" from this copy (at 112 kbps). Check the soundclip, that's how the record sounds.
I'm just a "semi-known gem" here and I don't want anyone to think I joigned the board to make money. This said, my professional activity's precarity sometimes leaves me no choice and makes me sell records I often would like to keep. I registered to benefit from and contribute to the wonderful ressource that is Refosoul. I'm not a man of words and knowledge so I might not participate to other forums, but I love music so you'll see me post clips from times to times... These last months I've been much too busy in real life to post or even log in, however I just want to say I'm a man of confidence, melomaniac record collector and music lover. I won't screw anyone.
- No long holds... Sorry, I'm just making it available here and now because it would help me paying that big bill that can't wait to be paid... If the sale isn't successful, the record will join 130 others I'll be listing on ebay in a week or two. In that case, I'll have a bad week or two then things will be better...
- Registered shipping offered within Europe! The record will be shipped instantly.
