I hesitated a bit before purchasing this specific album during Record Store Week in Japan due to its vintage status. Having other records from the same series that have endured various forms of damage over time, I was pleasantly surprised to find this copy in pristine condition, with crystal-clear sound on flawlessly silent vinyl. It's an absolute delight to listen to the young Jacques Loussier Trio performing on period instruments, with every note so distinctly pronounced.

I hesitated a bit before purchasing this specific album during Japan's Record Store Week due to its vintage status. Having some other records from this collection that have seen better days, I was pleasantly surprised to find this copy in pristine condition, with crystal-clear sound on flawlessly silent vinyl. It's an absolute delight to listen to the young Jacques Loussier Trio performing on period instruments, with every note so clearly articulated.
