Miles Davis - Kind Of Blue - Six Eye Stereo - 1959 Columbia CS 8163

VG Vinyl / G+ Cover. Very Good playback and sound with some light pop-clicks at the start of each side and some light prevailing background noise throughout yet still very enjoyable and relays the magic regardless. Glossy and clean vinyl with several surface cross groove hairlines and some handling scuffs and sleeve rub marks yet a bit stronger than a visual VG grade. Front cover shows some shelf wear with worn corners and a severely discolored and water stained rear and has a split top seam to the midpoint. Spine is intact and legible less wear of the catalog number at the corner. Original inner bag sleeve with a tearing seam. A fresh paper inner sleeve is provided to help preserve this.

Note: Columbia Six-Eye label variation "Kind of Blue " runs across on the same line. A small "Z" printed on the lower right corner of the rear cover. I believe this to be a later 1959 pressing and not the 1961 Repress?
