Hi all
Ive just been starting to get into jazz via an Eric Dolphy album I picked up and loved.
I just picked up an Italian mono copy of Giant Steps at a market in Milan. It sounds great. It has the black Atlantic label. I'm just wondering if its a first pressing anyone have a clue? There isnt much info about italian records online.

Thanks all

Thanks. Yes that's the one.
I love heard it. I've heard so much about Coltrane but wow. Unfortunately side 2 has a scratch that doesn't look so bad but skips the whole side.oh well the 1st side is worth the E10 alone.

What a shame. I must say, I couldn't live with a record like that. Original or not, it would keep me awake at night. It would have to go. I'd rather have a CD than a mistreated record... Sad, and perhaps not entirely rational, but true...
