Description
Offered for sale is a rare original Japanese stereo pressing of Suddenly the Blues by Leo Wright, including the nearly-always-missing original obi.
This LP featured Kenny Burrell on guitar.
About this copy: This copy of Suddenly the Blues is an original 1963 Japanese pressing on the Atlantic “bullseye” label.
The cover is VG++ with trace corner wear and a neat punch hole that goes through the cover and obi. The obi is VG++, with a few minor stains, but no tears.
There is no insert; we don’t know if one was originally included or not.
The disc is VG+ on side one, with a few light marks. Side two is VG++, with a few faint scuffs.
A nice copy of a rare LP that is almost never found complete.
Background: Originally released in 1961, Suddenly the Blues was the second album by sax/flute/clarinet player Leo Wright.
Allmusic.com gave Suddenly the Blues a 3 star review.
