This is part of that nice batch of British Tempo LPs: Jimmy Deuchar, Pal Jimmy, Tempo TAP 20. This one was in VG+ condition for both the record and the cover. It sold for $1,802.77. Frankly, I’ve never heard of Jimmy Deuchar, but I imagine it is the presence of Tubby Hayes that defines the real value of this record. There’s a nice picture on the cover with Tubby looking . . . well . . . just a little bit tubby.

Hank Mobley Quintet, Blue Note 1550. This was an almost original — NY  23 just on side 2? — and was in M- condition, part of the beautiful batch of records recently sold by Jazz 5060/Music Matters. It sold for $1,691.55.

Cannonball Adderley, Somethin’ Else, Blue Note 1595. This looked to be an original pressing in M- condition for the record and probably VG++ condition for the cover. It sold for $1,136.11.

Didn’t realize this one was a $100-plus record: Curtis Fuller, Soul Trombone, Impulse 13. This is an original pressing with the orange label and RVG in the deadwax. It is listed in VG++ condition for both the record and the cover and the current price is a bit more than $100, closing fairly soon.

Here’s an original Blue Note in not-such-great shape at a pretty reasonable price: Hank Mobley, Roll Call, Blue Note 4058. The record is listed in VG with “generally unobtrusive surface noise”  and the cover is VG+. The “generally” is the key here, since the implication is that there will be surface noise at times that will be obtrusive. I bet it’s a listenable copy. It’s at about $135 now. I don’t have an original pressing in my collection. Is this worth a shot? Perhaps. I bet it goes for more than $200, even in this condition. What do you think?
