The record is in neat E condition with just a little fading to the playing surfaces, this is not a major feature and elsewhere there are only a couple of very light and minor surface markings.

THE ROY HAYNES TRIO - JUST US (ESQUIRE 32-163) - A really fine original UK pressing on Esquire of this outstanding LP. Eddie De Haas (bass) says of Haynes: "He's always fresh.... He's always intense about his playing. I don't mean that he's not relaxed, but he's always stirring things up." The record is in superlative Ex+ condition with perhaps just a couple of very faint markings running with the groove on side 2. The sleeve is in Ex+ condition with a little laminate wear and (again, very light) discolouration on the reverse. These Esquire LPs may have a 'flat edge' but there's certainly nothing flat about the music!

The title doth not deceive you, we have Art Farmer on the horns, Jackie McLean on alto sax, the slick skills of Kenny Burrell on guitar, Mal Waldron on keys, Doug Watkins on bass and Art Taylor on drums! To top it all off there's also the matter of the super 'funky' Ralph Steadman designed sleeve, a piece of art in its own right. The record is in Ex+ condition with perhaps just some slight 'shadowing' to the playing surface, maybe due to the inner sleeve being poly-lined. The sleeve is in Ex condition with a couple of very small scuffs on the top/bottom on the front.
JOE TURNER - PRESENTING - Beautifully clean and glossy Tri-Centre copy of Presenting Joe Turner on London (UK, London, EP RE-E. 1111.)
