Barney Kessel – Vol. 3, To Swing Or Not To Swing (LP, Album, Mono) (Very Good Plus (VG+))

Media Condition: Very Good Plus (VG+)

Sleeve Condition: Very Good Plus (VG+)

Location: WAREHOUSE JAZZ K

Cover is graded very conservatively due to some faint creases, seriously nice cover that is VG+++, almost looks brand new. Disc has a few very light superficial surface scuffs, along with a small bout of groove wear noticeable on the first track of B side. Really nice example overall.
