Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Not a book but a 12-inch, 33-1/3 rpm mono vinyl jazz album, copyright 1961 but generally listed as a 1963 release, Reprise R-6072 with white labels "Promotional Not For Sale," near-mint vinyl in a near-mint cardboard jacket. (In fact, if you've ever wondered, thi…s is an empty bluff. Once this record was mailed out -- they were virtually always unsolicited -- to a radio station, it became the property of said radio station to dispose of as it pleased (other than REPRODUCING new copies) In January of 2011, NPR reports, "The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco upheld a lower court's decision that the sale of so-called promo records -- usually advance copies of new releases sent to music critics and radio stations by record labels -- does NOT violate copyright laws.") With a shifting assembly of sidemen available during his 1952 trip to France (Don Byas tenor sax; Wade Legge piano, drummer Bill Clark of Lena Horne's rhythm section, etc.) John Birks Gillespie offers "Sweet Lorraine," "Dizzy's Blues," "I Cover the Waterfront," "Mon Homme," "Fais Gaffe!", "She's Funny That Way," a pseudo-Dixieland "'S Wonderful," etc. This jazz LP now reduced from $35.
