Ellington, Duke / Mingus, Charlie / Roach, Max Money Jungle (1986 Quiex DMM RE)

1986 Blue Note DMM Direct Metal Mastering AUDIOPHILE reissue pressed on translucent (when held to light) GREEN QUIEX VINYL! Vinyl is NM and excellent with a couple light paper sleeve scuffs. Labels are excellent. Original Blue Note inner sleeve is excellent. Cover has light cornerwear/edgewear, light ringwear mostly on front cover and slight bend/creases at the left side corners on back cover.

If you’re not familiar with QUIEX, it's like this: As CDs began coming on the scene in the 1980’s, record companies started pressing “Quiex II” LPs primarily for radio stations. The idea was to show that vinyl was still king and sounded just as good--or better--than CDs. MOST Quiex pressings were marked as Quiex that were shipped to radio. If too many were pressed, they were packaged as regular LPs and those lucky enough to unknowingly buy them were then blessed with clearer sound! This translucent (when held to light) AUDIOPHILE beauty is one of those pressings!
