Vinyl plays with crackles and some clicks (play-graded). Cover looks good; a few creases near edges; moderate scuffing, tiny surface abrasions, slight discoloration with darker discoloration spots, and surface impressions (front/back). Inner-sleeve is generic white. Spine is easy-to-read with mild-wear. Shelf-wear along top/bottom-edge and corners. Opening is crisp with signs of light use and divots. (Not a cut-out.)
Here is brilliant band music in abundance...music in motion...music that sings...music by the "March King. As interpreted by Morton Gould and a picked band of virtuosos, these works of the "March King" have an almost modern sound, with clear imitations of their established immortality.The subtlety and vitality of Sousa's music are unmistakable.
