Please remember that 1568 was a lost one… I´ve have never seen any reissues ( NY USA, Liberty…).
What is the second pressing ? KING from `78 to ´81 ?

Ok , my 1 cent opinion on this. I Like the BN 1568 (I only have the AcousTech 45 Mastering … 🙁 but I think Hank Mobley BN 1550 is a better LP (I have a nice original 1st of this one). And yes, what ever the market dictates……….

I’m convinced that the $-differerence between the 1568 and 1565 is not based on scarcity and musically I think they are both very good – maybe with a small edge towards the Mobley. However NOT a $4000 edge 😉

We, the buyers, are just used to that the 1568 is the most paid for Jazz record. Jazzcollector, ebay and other online sources are just “hammering it out” and in the end it is the general truth and going rate. And nothin wrong with that. If there is a market for reselling it’s fine I guess. I mean would you suddenly pay $5000 and NOT be able to resell it? Don’t think so. Hey if you find it for $2000 dollar you feel it’s a bargain – I would for sure 😉

And of course sites like jazzcollector, FB jazzrecordcollector drives the market! Discussing auctions and prices, upping general interests in jazz, tipping about ongoing auctions etc. What would you expect?

Terry – I just realised that last year I bought an LP from the seller of the Miles. It wasn’t expensive – a reissue of Jackie Mac’s Bluesnik, but I do remember it was in super condition and I left him very good feedback.

Let’s wait and see if the $5K+ buyer of this Mobley actually pays for their purchase, or if they skip out on the seller – as had happened earlier with the $11K+ purchaser!…. x C

I’ve been looking for a clean copies (affordable hopefully) of Clifford Jordan BLP 1582 and BLP 1565 for the last 20 years and I’ve seen far more copies of 1568 offered for sale. Blue Note was a small private company and they seemed to press up only the number of copies they thought they could sell. That’s why you see so many more first pressings of their “popular” artists at that time, Art Blakey, Horace Silver, Jimmy Smith, etc. At least I have the Jordan’s on cd, he has such a beautiful warm sound!
