Sidney Bechet & Django Reinhardt - 2 Giants Of Jazz
Pye Golden Guinea Records
Cat# GGL 0306
MONO recording
UK release
1964
Cover is in very good condition, no tears, no seam splits, one name written on the rear cover which has now been obscured for privacy and there is a slight "grubiness" look to the rear of the cover (plain matt "white" card) For the sake of authenticity, the original Pye paper sleeve is included, although the record will be in the new plastic liner sleeve in any case
New inner clear plastic sleeve
Vinyl is in good condition, visually inspected and I can see a few very light ~ light scratches or marks on both sides, particularly Side A but the old vinyl material is much hardier than modern vinyl so although the surface may not look great, the only real test is to play the album. I then played both sides ENTIRELY, every single track, and there are no significant issues with surface noise or click/pops at all. A real step back in time, old time jazz.
New outer protective sleeve
