The Amazing Jimmy Smith Trio / Live At The Village Gate - Never Before Released Performances!
Japan Orig. LP


Verve SMV 1059 ( STEREO )


Appendices: "F/B Different Cover"
( OBI is Missing / INSERT is NOT originally issued )

Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in 1966 ) of their original live album. Cover is printed on the back with “Japanese liner notes” which is different from any other countries’ copy. It is “flipped back” on its top & bottom-rims. Though obi & insert are missing, it’s still hard to find this album even in our country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: VG/EX+ ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for lightly worn right-edge. It’s lightly scraped with light ring-wear on the surface of front, while being lightly tanned with minor stain-marks on the top & bottom-rims of back side. A small strip-mark is on the right top corner of back side. Otherwise it has no tear, dent, strip & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc is excellent in condition, keeping glossy. A short slight short scratch is on Side A-2 ( inaudible ). There’re a few tiny spindle-marks on each label. Otherwise it has none of any scuff & hairline, which is to be rated as "EX+".

OBI: Missing.

INSERT: NOT originally issued for this album.
