Carmen McRae - Torchy! LP Original 1955 Decca

Description: Artist & Title: Carmen McRae - Torchy! Label & Cat #: 1955 Decca – DL 8267 Mono *Original first pressingVinyl Grade: Very Good Plus (VG+) play graded *vinyl itself has superficial scuffs and spindle marks, but plays really well with very little noise interference (11 of the 12 tracks play Excellent/Very Strong VG+). The only exception was "My Future Just Passed" which had 3 non-repeating jump skips plus 3 additional ticks.Cover Grade: Very Good Plus (VG+) *jacket has light overall shelf wear - some writing at top on back and staining on bottomNotes: A lush, potently atmospheric collection of romantic ballads rendered for maximum impact and the sheer intensity of McRae's vocals render orchestration virtually moot. Few singers have equaled her conviction or her fierce intelligence, and her interpretations of songs like "But Beautiful," "My Future Just Passed," and "We'll Be Together Again" pack a devastating emotional punch." Arranged by Jack Pleis and Ralph Burns.

GRADING STANDARDS:(M) Mint: Record and cover appear absolutely perfect in every way. Grade is seldom used, even with sealed albums where the record itself can only be assumed to be mint. (NM) Near Mint: Vinyl is shiny with no obvious signs of wear and plays perfectly with no audible imperfections. Cover is close to perfect with minor signs of wear or age just becoming evident. (EX or VG++) Excellent /Very Good ++: Record or jacket has a minimum of audible or visual imperfections. Vinyl has been handled and played very carefully. Light paper scuffs and/or spindle marks may be visible with no appreciable lessening in sound quality. Covers show very minor signs of handling and wear. (VG+) Very Good Plus: Record displays light scuffs, spindle marks or very light scratches that may create some noise disturbances, but don't affect one's overall listening experience. Jacket begins to show more prominent signs of storage wear and aging. (VG) Very Good: Defects are more pronounced with visible signs of handling and playing. Surface noise is evident upon playing, especially during soft passages and a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Covers may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached, although none of the flaws should be overwhelming. (G) Good / (G+)Good Plus: Vinyl will have scratches and visible groove wear. Record plays without skipping, although noticeable surface noise or ticks will be heard. Jackets have even more pronounced defects such as seam splits, tape, writing, ring wear, water damage or other defects.
