Miles Davis - The Original Mono Recordings - Sealed 2013 9 CD Box Set

ARTIST:

Miles Davis

TITLE:

The Original Mono Recordings

DETAILS:

Sealed 2013 9 CD box set. Housed in a card board box containing 9 CDs in Mini-LP Replica Jackets and a 40-page booklet. When the music in this boxed set was recorded between 1955 and 1963, Columbia engineers typically ran two tape machines. The approved performances were spliced from tapes recorded on the A-machine while the tapes from the B-machine were left un-spliced — serving as a backup in case anything happen to the A-tapes.To duplicate the sound of the original mono albums on the nine CDs in this set, all of the A- and B-reels were pulled from Sony's Vaults. Then the best-sounding reels were selected and a series of digital remastering techniques were applied — using pristine copies of the original LPs as audio benchmarks.

GRADING:

Still Sealed 

Our grading is based on the system used by Record Collector magazine as described below (We don't sell CDs with a grading of less than very good).

Mint: The CD itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. CDs advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

Excellent: The CD shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

Very Good: The CD has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
