Our friends at Euclid Records also have some nice items this week, including:

Jackie McLean, Jackie’s Bag, Blue Note 4051. This is an original pressing in VG++ condition for both the record and the cover. The price is now in the $175 range with one day left, so we’ll expect it to sell for a bit more than that. Also from Euclid: J.R. Monterose, Blue Note 1536. This is an original Lexington Avenue pressing. The record is listed as VG++ and the cover is VG+. The current price is about $350.

Also active on eBay this week is Atomic Records, which has this one, among others: Bill Evans, Waltz for Debby, Riverside 9399. This is an original black label stereo pressing. The record is in VG+ or VG++ condition, but the seller says there is some surface noise. The cover is VG. The price is about $150. With all of these sellers, it makes sense to click on the links here and then look at the seller’s other items when you get there, because there are some other very nice record available this week from all of them.

Lee Morgan, City Lights, Blue Note 1575. This one was pointed out earlier by one of our readers.  It was in M- condition by a credible seller and it was an original pressing. It sold for $2,655.

Barney Wilen, Tilt, Swing Vogue LDM 30.058. This was an original French pressing. The record ws what we would call VG++ and the cover was M-. This one sold for $2,250.  This one is not new to the $2,000 club: It has previously sold for $2,700 in the Jazz Collector Price Guide.

Sonny Criss, Jazz-USA, Imperial 9006. This was a surprise to see in this category, simply because

we’ve never seen it approaching the $1,000 mark before. In fact, we’ve never recorded it selling for more than $300. This one looked to be in VG+ condition, perhaps a bit better, but not M-. It sold for $1,125. I have a copy of this one at home. Perhaps I’ll be looking to put it on eBay, but somehow I don’t see it selling for that price again too soon.

Finally, there is this one, $1 short of the $1,000 bin, so we’ll make it an honorary member: Bill Evans, Explorations, Riverside 351. This was an original pressing and it was in M- condition for both the record and the cover. This one was $999. It’s clear that some of these records in M- condition are setting new highs. Previously, our high for this was also less than $300. I think I’m going to rush home and start listing my M- records on eBay, so keep an eye out. Seriously.
