HELEN MERRILL SEALED limited edition 180 gram Vinyl LP. EmArcy/Analogue Productions AAPJ 127. Mono, limited edition remastered reissue. COVER & VINYL: MINT still sealed, never played, heavy gatefold cover. Liner notes and musical arrangements by QUINCY JONES.HELEN MERRILL (vocal) with Clifford Brown, Danny Banks, Barry Galbraith, Jimmy Jones, Oscar Pettiford, Milt Hinton, Osie Johnson, Bobby Donaldson,. A jewel of a jazz performance — Helen Merrill’s 1955 debut delivers! Produced and arranged by Quincy Jones. Includes noted trumpeter Clifford Brown Remastered by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio from the original master tape Plating and 180-gram pressing by Quality Record Pressings Tip-on gatefold jacket by Stoughton Printing “Clifford Brown, probably the most acclaimed jazz instrumentalist in 1954, acts (here) as the perfect foil. … He supplies the hot to Merrill’s cool. His technical prowess is on display and he plays quick runs of notes with remarkable delicacy. … the packaging is a tip-on jacket from Stoughton Printing. Unlike the original, it is a gatefold with session photos on the inside. An insert includes a bit of history about Robert Fine as well as detailed sessions notes. The pressing is a 180-gram slab of vinyl from Quality Record Pressings — enough said. This is a great reissue that, for all intents and purposes, is the only choice for serious listening. The original is priced out of reach for all but the wealthy.” — Recording = 4.5/5; Music = 5/5 — Dennis D. Davis, The Audio Beat The album was recorded in December of 1954 by the legendary Bob Fine, at Fine Sound Inc., 711 5th Avenue in New York. Merrill, then only 24, was backed by a combo that included Clifford Brown on trumpet, Oscar Pettiford on bass, and pianist Jimmy Jones, with arrangements by Quincy Jones — himself a mere 21 years old at the time. The mono sound is on the (pleasantly) dry side and very forward, with taut-sounding drums and bass and an intimate vocal sound that at times comes close to being overly sibilant but never quite carries out the threat. Merrill’s intonation isn’t always spot-on (as in the intro to ‘Yesterdays’), but there’s something about her voice — an odd combination of breathy innocence and husky-toned experience that pulls me in time after time. (In ‘Don’t Explain,’ she intones the word quiet in a manner that could launch any number of ships.) And Clifford Brown’s trumpet is, as one might expect, perfect. — Art Dudley, Stereophile, March 2020 Helen Merrill attributed her childhood musical influence to her mother’s singing. Truth is, she didn’t wait long herself to make a mark as a teenage jazz ingénue, following-up with the notable self-titled LP you have in your hands, newly remastered, and reissued by Analogue Productions. Helen Merrill arrives, remastered by Kevin Gray at Cohearant Audio, and plated and pressed to 180-gram vinyl by the dedicated crew at Quality Record Pressings, supervised by plating expert and general manager Gary Salstrom. No less than an old-style, tip-on Stoughton Printing gatefold jacket would suffice for such a phenomenal-sounding reissue. Rare photographs inside the gatefold originally appeared as sleeve art for the 7-inch singles recorded and released in conjunction with the original 1955 album release. Helen Merrill is her debut studio album, backed by among others, trumpeter Clifford Brown and bassist/cellist Oscar Pettiford. The legendary Quincy Jones produced and arranged the album when he was just 21-years-old! Merrill’s career continued with recordings and concerts throughout six decades, until the early 2000s. Her emotional, sensual vocal performances, particularly this engaging debut, stand as testament to her immense talent.A1 Don’t ExplainA2 You’d Be So Nice To Come Home ToA3 What’s NewA4 Falling In Love With LoveB1 YesterdaysB2 Born To Be BlueB3 ‘S Wonderful ***FACTORY SEALED***NEVER PLAYED*** *** Please be advised that the USPS is providing slower delivery service for the foreseeable future, so delays are common.

I will play grade on certain items only – it is just impossible for me to play grade everything I put on EBAY. RECORD GRADING: MINT (M) —- It should be SEALED and appear to be brand new. Mint means STILL SEALED, NEVER PLAYED.NEAR MINT (NM or NM-) —- OPENED or UNSEALED. Otherwise mint but has one or two tiny inconsequential flaws that do not affect play. Covers should be close to perfect with minor signs of wear or age just becoming evident. VERY GOOD PLUS (VG++ or strong VG++ or VG+++) The record or cover that all but the most particular collector would say looks outstanding. Cover may have insignificant manufacturers defect such as notch hole or cut corner. VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+ or strong VG+) The record has been handled and played infrequently or very carefully. On a disc, there may be light paper scuffs from sliding in and out of a sleeve or the vinyl or some of the original luster may be lost. A slight scratch that did not affect play would be acceptable for most collectors. Cover has most of its original gloss and has been well taken care of. Minor seam splits may be acceptable. VERY GOOD (VG or strong VG) —- Record displays visible signs of handling and playing, such as loss of vinyl luster, light surface scratches, groove wear and spindle trails. Some audible surface noise, non-feelable marks that might or will affect the sound as mild occasional surface noise or periodic pops/clicks. Usually a cover is VG when one or more of these problems are evident: ring wear, seam splits, bent corners, loss of gloss, stains, etc. VERY GOOD- (VG- or G+) Record will show signs same as VG with heavier wear including noticeable groove wear and feelable marks that will likely pop or click. Popping or clicking will be most evident through quieter passages. Record should play all the way through, but may skip. GOOD (G) —- Well played with little luster and significant surface noise. Despite defects, record should still play all the way through without skipping, but may skip. Several cover flaws will be apparent, but should not obliterate the artwork. Filler copy until a better one can be found. POOR (P) —- Any record or cover that does not qualify for the above “Good” grading should be seen as Poor. Only the rarest of records should ever be graded as Poor while the others should go to the trash heap. DISCLAIMER. Due to the number of frivolous returns which were unwarranted, and due to the nature of sound recorded products that can be easily copied, there will no longer be a free return policy. I will charge a $10.00 return fee for all returns – this amount will be deducted from the Paypal refund of the returned item. If item is truly defective the entire purchase amount will be refunded as long as the item is in the same condition as it was sent. ***BUYER PAYS FOR ALL RETURN SHIPPING FEES.*** ATTENTION!!
