Bill Evans - The Blues and the abstract truth

First stereo pressing!
With original inner sleeve

- released: 1961
- country; usa
- record label: impulse
- label number: A-5-S
- condition: cover VG because of a huge cut-out but besides that in nice condition, vinyl NM

This is the first stereo pressing of this album. It has an "abstract" cover, as opposed to later pressings with a photo of Oliver Nelson. This cover was quickly withdrawn. Also unlike later pressings, the cover and label credit the album to all six musicians and not just to Nelson.

True first pressings have orange and black labels. The print at the bottom, in white, reads "A Product of Am-Par Record Corp. Printed In U.S.A."

"RVG STEREO" is stamped in the dead wax.

Cat. no. on cover is STEREO A-5. Cat. no. on label is A-5-S.

Recorded 23 February, 1961.
