What's Spinning

I figured I'd open this one up and see how it looks.

This one had the worst sleeve damage between the 2 records. Seam splits on all 3 sides - big enough for the record to bust about an inch through...on the spine side (see image below).

Surprisingly, this one had less paper dust as the other...and minimal scuffs in that first inch - nothing that can be heard.

Interesting label for a Blue Note Tone Poet release:

Its all to do with EMI (who had already bought out Liberty Records) purchasing United Artists. They basically phased out Blue Note during the 80's and later reissue projects were therefore able to use any records from the bought out companies, such as with this release. Its the same reason Blue Note have released Tone Poets such as Chick Corea - Now He Sings, Now He Sobs (Solid State Records) and Chet Baker ‎– Chet Baker Sings (World Pacific Jazz). Interesting for sure.

This slaps so hard!! I was really looking forward to hopefully seeing Muriel Grossman live in London later this year but doesn't look like that's going to happen now.

Edited.

This is at least the second time I've seen this listed as "Momentum" when the album shows "Elevation," so I'm curious about just which album this is. Wasn't listed on Discogs when I looked this morning, but I see it's there now, listed as a compilation.

Yeah my bad, I always copy titles when I can so I dont spell them incorrectly and thats what its written as on my order. Its definitely Elevation though. Very strange. I know Momentum was a CD release, maybe the listing was originally wrong?
