The Prestige office was located at 446 West 50th Street & 'NYC' label releases ran for approximately two years. Most of the famous Bop recordings for Prestige were made by Rudy Van Gelder in his home studios in Hackensack, NJ & when Van Gelder moved to Englewood Cliffs in July 1959, label boss Bob Weinstock moved the Prestige office to nearby Bergenfield, NJ. 'Bergenfield' label releases were next in line, but the stature of the short-lived 'NYC' label releases means that the original 'NYC' label address pressing for this album is the more desirable. The sound quality is considered the very best & most natural representation of what occurred for the sessions that produced this historic album.

Condition :-

The pasted heavyweight sleeve is a stunning example with a low number stamp in the bottom right corner of the rear [000498]. A thin two inch hairline split in the top is the only distraction from this near perfect copy. The album notes remain as sharp as the day it was made, with just a little natural greying, the spine looks majestic & the artwork deserves to be framed in its own right.

The heavyweight vinyl is the real star of the show & remains in Near Mint condition. There is only the lightest suggestion of play by the spindle area. The wax appears as clean & near perfect as you can get for a fifty-eight year old record of this magnitude. It doesn't get much better than this!
