Record is in nice shape, has a few faint blemishes and hairlines. Sleeve is in shrink, some light wear on the corners.

Notes:

“Electronically Rechanneled For Stereo” (front jacket); “Electronically Re-Recorded To Simulate Stereo” (rear jacket). The catalogue number RS 3029 appears on the jacket spine and front; RS-3029 is on the jacket rear and labels. Not all copies had the “Not For Sale” sticker.

“All the splendid recordings in this collection have been issued before in Riverside albums. They are assembled here so that these interpretations by gifted artists may be continually available to the public.”

Recorded in New York, April 1 and 8, 1957. All tracks here were originally issued in 1958 as [m442238], so this pressing is a REISSUE.
