Comments on: Kind of Blue for $5,000? https://jazzcollector.com/jazz-vinyl/kind-of-blue-for-5000/ For those who love jazz Tue, 23 Feb 2010 18:42:01 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: don-lucky https://jazzcollector.com/jazz-vinyl/kind-of-blue-for-5000/comment-page-1/#comment-15053 Tue, 23 Feb 2010 18:42:01 +0000 http://jazzcollector.com/?p=2690#comment-15053 …Even if this was truly the last original promo pressing of ‘Kind of Blue’ and our deluded friend “jazz*rock68” comes up with an interesting back story for us, like (for argument sake) Miles Davis personally spit on this copy, then just maybe I could see it being worth $5000, maybe ! (…It would depend on the size of the spit mark, and whether or not the said “loogie” affects playback !)

I personally have three original copies of this LP including a great promo copy I picked up for $236.50 from the ‘funkyou’ auction back in January. This is an obvious favorite of mine, and there really isn’t a world-wide shortage of available copies out there to my knowledge. The fact that someone actually believes that they will fetch $5000 for this one is most certainly the result of a seasoned crack habit to say the least… Let that be a lesson to you kids, and perhaps that well-intentioned collector out there sending this guy best offers ! (I’ll sell you mine for $1000… No spit marks, no stickers, near mint !)
