Congrats.

And lo and behold: today I was able to add Miles Davis 1501 to the 1502 that I already had. And from what I’ve learned here on the site, this must be an original first pressing.

Since I love sharing photos of my few gems, I have the 1501 details for you, so please click HERE.

The record is perfectly flat, just like my 1502, it has the ‘ear’ (or the ‘p’ from Plastylite if I’m correct) RVG is in the dead wax and the label clearly shows the famous deep groove. The label has a bit of white out on it, clearly to cover up hand writing on the label. The vinyl is dusty, but plays terrific and is in good shape. A friend with a professional record cleaner will take care of that 😉

I paid a total of 120 Euro for it, which is around $150. From what I’ve learned here, this was a good price for a precious gem!
Mattyman, The Netherlands

Although I have to work, I do have the advantage of an office on an outdoor porch overlooking a lovely mountain lake. It could be worse, I would say. I’ll do a post later, but I’m also doing a gig here on Saturday night at the Monterey General Store, which is, really, a general store here in lovely Monterey, MA. It will be a guitar duo with my good friend Dan Axelrod and it will be quite a fun time. . . if anyone is in the neighborhood and would like to drop by.

You are certainly living the dream my friend. I think the real gamble here was the decision for the rest of us to actually go into the office on such a fine day as this ! All motivation has gone right out the window now, but perhaps a little “ebay therapy” will ease the pain…
