What To Do With Two Covers: A Simple Solution
Feb 16, 2010 Prestige
One of the great things about doing the Jazz Collector site is that I get to learn along with everyone else. Remember I did that post the other day about the two Teddy Charles Prestige covers and Rudolf replied, as I hoped he would, and he mentioned the Jon Eardley Seven, Prestige 7033, and how Prestige just decided one day that it would no longer be a Jon Eardley record and would now be a Zoot Sims record, Zoot Sims Down East, only they didn’t change the number, they just changed the packaging. And I read that and I thought to myself: Whoops, I think I have both of those records, in different parts of my collection: One under “E” for Eardley and the other under “S” for Sims. Now, here’s the real beauty of the entire situation:

Some 10-Inchers For the Price Guide
Mar 2, 2009 10-Inch LPs, Blue Note, Jazz Vinyl, Jazz Vinyl on eBay, Prestige, Price Guide
There was a lot of discussion on Jazz Collector last week about 10-inch LPs and we said we’d keep track of some for the price guide. To be honest, based on these prices, we’re not sure if demand is diminished. We do know that prices tend to be inconsistent week to week, so it’s best to keep track over time, which is why we do the Jazz Collector Price Guide, which, so far, has been tracking prices over a five-year period. Anyway, here’s an update on some 10-inch LPs, all of which will go into the Price Guide later this week:
Elmo Hope, New Faces, New Sounds, Blue Note 5029. This was an original pressing in M- condition, both record and cover. It sold for $620.
Jon Eardley in Hollywood, New Jazz 1105. This was also in M- condition. It sold for $232.44.
