The disc has been played a number of times but has been well looked after, showing only light marks. The labels might show slightly heavier signs of wear but are not damaged.
Description
A very special piece from quite possibly the greatest inventive voice of modern American Jazz: Charlie Parker. This record, being an original American copy of the first pressing, is in simply brilliant condition.
All the records I am selling belonged to Tony Hall, a titan of the British music industry who passed away in the summer of 2019 at the age of 91. They were acquired directly from his executors and are exclusively sold here with their blessing.
As a producer, Tony oversaw some of the most celebrated British jazz recordings of the 1950s. As a DJ for Radio Luxembourg and the BBC in the late 1950s and early 1960s, he influenced the tastes of countless people around Europe, not least the Beatles and the Stones as they grew up. As a promo man, he broke countless hits, such as River Deep – Mountain High and A Whiter Shade Of Pale. His extraordinarily wide-ranging record collection will be exclusively sold through elvinyl, and features his personal copies of many important records whose genesis he was involved in.
I will be adding more and more of Tony’s records in the coming weeks, so please check back.
I will consider offers on all the records I list, so please contact me with an offer. If I accept, I will adjust the price for you.
