Verve Records V6-8474 Bashin' - The Unpredictable Jimmy Smith 1962

Recording Engineer - Rudy Van Gelder Producer - Creed Taylor

The vinyl is still quite shiny with a small amount of superficial marks none of which are 'feelable' and some tiny white spots which may be from long term storage. A good cleaning by your chosen method would improve things.

The labels are clean and bright with no marks or writing. Van Gelder is stamped in the dead wax.

The gatefold cover is in great shape with minimal signs of age and handling which include some rubbed edges.

A Picture is worth 1000 words so look at the images.

I acquired this vintage album back in the 1980s.
