LENNIE NIEHAUS,Vol. 4 The Quintets & Strings,Vinyl LP,Jazz ,VG,Contemporary 3510

Description: LENNIE NEIHAUS "Vol. 4: The Quintets & Strings", vinyl LP original US mono pressing, 1955 ALBUM INFO: This is an original US pressing of West Coast alto saxophonist, composer and arranger LENNIENIEHAUS' 4th solo album, as originally issued by Contemporary Records, Feb 1955. Considered by many to be one of his finest recordings of the 1950s, alto player Lennie Niehaus is featured throughout the dozen selections and the varied settings (backed by a string quartet, a standard rhythm section, and sometimes two other saxophonists in addition to performing four numbers with a standard quintet) give him an opportunity to show off his writing abilities. Niehaus varies tempos a lot (the strings are often heard on faster material), there is solo space for the tenor of Bill Perkins, baritonist Bob Gordon, and Stu Williamson on trumpet and valve trombone, and the leader's boppish alto is heard at the peak of his playing powers. Bop collectors can consider this 50s classic to be essential. PRESSING INFO: This is an earlier pressing, on the yellow Contemporary Records label. For those interested in factory variatinos, this was pressed at Columbia-Hollywood. Comes with new generic inner sleeve. ADDITIONAL INFO: LP was part of a collection that had been in storage 30+ years in a dry, smoke-free environment. The disc was cleaned using a VPI Cyclone which works into a disc’s grooves to help remove deep, settled dirt and other surface marks, allowing the grooves to breathe for better stylus contact, helping to minimize surface noise.**Always be sure your turntable's arm/stylus' weight and anti-skate settings are properly set for optimum performance** (See condition details below)Photos are of actual item**All vinyl comes in a protective poly outer sleeve at no extra cost***NOTE: The sale of promotional media is protected by the First Sale Doctrine: The First Sale Doctrine allows the seller to transfer (i.e., sell or give away) a particular lawfully made copy of the copyrighted work without permission once it has been obtained.

(see photos) ________________________________________________________ GOLDMINE STANDARD VINYL CONDITION CODES: NEAR MINT/EXC: A nearly perfect record. Disc shows no obvious signs of wear. A 45 RPM or EP sleeve should have no more than the most minor defects, such as almost invisible ring wear or other signs of slight handling. An LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits or other noticeable similar defects. No cut-out holes, either. The same for any inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves etc... EXC- minus: The disc shows some very slight signs of having been played, with very little lessening in sound quality, and barely noticeable, extremely isolated but light surface noise. Labels have minimal spindle marks. The cover and packaging might have slight wear but excellent aspect overall. VERY GOOD+: A VG+ records show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are "OK". The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable. The center hole will not have been misshapen by repeated play. Picture sleeves and LP inner sleeves will have some slight wear, lightly turned up corners, or a slight seam split. An LP cover may have slight signs of wear also and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation or corner indicating it was taken out of print and sold at a discount. VERY GOOD: Goldmine price guides with more than one price will list Very Good as many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound. Labels may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached. The same will be true of picture sleeves or LP covers. However, it will not have all of these problems at the same time, only two or three of them. VERY GOOD minus- : Any wear n' tear seen in a VG is more enhanced in a VG- disc but not quite to a G+/G rating. The record still plays through without skipping, so it can serve as filler until something better comes along. But it has some obvious surface noise and groove wear. The labels maybe worn, with ring wear, heavy writing, or obvious damage caused by someone trying to remove tape or stickers and failing miserably. A VG– cover has ring wear to the point of distraction, some discoloring/fading, at least 1 seam split and may have even heavier writing, such as, for example, huge radio station letters written across the front to deter theft. GOOD/GOOD+: Good does not mean Bad! A record in Good or Good+ Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and will play through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise and scratches and sometimes visible groove wear. A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the object. POOR or FAIR: The record is cracked, badly warped, and won't play through without skipping or repeating. The picture sleeve is water damaged, split on all three seams and heavily marred by wear and writing. The LP cover barely keeps the LP inside it. Inner sleeves are fully seam split, crinkled, and written upon. ______________________________________________________________ MUSICGEEK1's POLICIES & PROCEDURES: PayPal payments ONLY!
