La Pasion Del Tango

LP (Item 142764) White Label, 1940s/1950s — Condition: Very Good
(Cover has masking tape holding the seams and spine, with application wrinkles on both sides, and a peeled spot in back.)

Very Good

  • Vinyl can have some dirt, but nothing major.
  • May not shine under light, but should still be pretty clean, and not too dirty.
  • May have a number of marks (5 to 10 at most), and obvious signs of play, but never a big cluster of them, or any major mark that would be very deep. Most marks should still not click under a fingernail.
  • May not look near perfect, but should play fairly well, with slight surface noise, and the occasional click in part of a song, but never throughout a whole song or more.
  • This is clearly a copy that was played by someone a number of times, but which could also be a good "play copy" for someone new.

Additional Marks & Notes

If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.

An excellent set – a perfectly put-together collection of Joe's classic 60s Latin Soul sides for Tico, assembled by Dave Hucker for Charly Records in 1989.

Machito & His Afro Cuban Orchestra

Vacation At The Concord
Coral, 1958. Very Good+
A great document of the crossover between the New York Latin scene and the Catskills – the upstate resort community that was as important to the Latin groups as the uptown clubs! Like many groups of the period, Machito's found a heck of a lot of work in the Catskills during the 50s – ... LP, Vinyl record album

Explosion
Riverside, Early 60s. Very Good+
Great stuff by Mongo – originally issued under another name during the early 60s, but presented here with a new cover in this late 60s reissue.
