The Harold Land Quintet The Fox 1961 UK First Pressing LAE12269

Description: From Wikipedia: “Harold de Vance Land (December 18, 1928 – July 27, 2001)[1] was an American hard bop and post-bop tenor saxophonist. Land developed his hard bop playing with the Max Roach/Clifford Brown band into a personal, modern style, often rivalling Clifford Brown's instrumental ability with his own inventive and whimsical solos. His tone was strong and emotional, yet hinted at a certain introspective fragility.[2]” This is a genius album and a great introduction to hard-bop. The album has its introspective moments too as well which I love. This is the original UK pressing on Vogue. Format: Vinyl Record - 12” Country: UK Year: 1961 Label: Vogue Records Catalogue No. LAE 12269 Condition: Vinyl is Very Good there are visible marks with significant signs of it being played. This does not affect the quality of the sound. I played the album using a new Audio technica cartridge and there was only some crackle sounds that come through on the quieter more introspective tracks. It doesn’t affect what is a fantastic recording. Cover is Good. There are signs of wear and creases on the cover please see photos as you’d expect from an album that is over 60 years old. One previous owner has also left his name on the cover (see photos). All records are sent in cardboard sleeve with bubble wrap. Please note I am not a professional record seller. These records are treasured possessions from my own personal collection. RECORD GRADING Grading System: In order to assist everyone who buys and sells rare discs, Record Collector magazine has originated a set of standards for the condition of second-hand records, I have added a (+) or (-) to my grading's where applicable. MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Un-played should be Mint. EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing. VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable. GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc. FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced. POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged.
