FAQ

Is this the original pressing?
No. The recordings were first released in West Germany in 1974 on MPS/BASF as Scenes. This AMIGA record is the 1982 licensed GDR edition.

What makes AMIGA jazz records interesting?
AMIGA was the state record label of East Germany. Its AMIGA JAZZ series issued Western jazz recordings under licence, with its own sleeve design and liner notes.

What does Media NM- / Cover VG mean?
NM- (Near Mint minus) means the record is close to new. VG (Very Good) on the sleeve means clear signs of wear. All grades are explained on our Vinyl Grading page.
