They know how trophy hunters think, but the blank spine is the mark of original provenance.
Blank spines did not feature in auction photos, just the sharpness of corners. The first edition cover of Blue Train should have a blank spine Printed spines first appeared on albums released in April 1958, six months after the 1st Blue Train pressing. The 1957 period is associated with fine text form in the printing of the label address by Blue Note’s long standing print supplier, Keystone Printed Specialties, Scranton, PA. We don’t know how many 1577 NY23 labels were printed, or how long they remained in use at a later date, though the presence of mixed label (NY23 on only one side) sets suggest they were in surplus and actively running down stocks. It also appears on a small number of new albums released in 19, which is a useful reminder of the loose relationship between the time of label printing, vinyl pressing and release. The NEW YORK 23 suffix address appears on the labels of 18 albums released between March and November 1957, which just includes Blue Train at the tail end. label was contemporaneous to the first issue of Blue Train, in November 1957. There is an established chronology of Blue Note labels, over time. We can talk about the music another time.This is adult-strength hard-core vinyl collector business. Most important, I have nothing to say about the music here, we all know the music is great. Method: comparative visual graphic evidence from sweating auction results, how else? I looked at around five hundred higher value auction of Blue Train to reach my conclusions, though I could still be wrong, call me out.

The rest we can do later.Ĭhallenge: tackle the connection between labels and covers, and the pressing history of that recording, during years in which Coltrane had signed to a series of other labels and become an even more major artist, which spurred more sales of Blue Train, the source of all those auction copies.
Also, limited to the original Blue Note editions, before the transition to Liberty. Initially, only mono editions, which was largely how the world looked at records at the end of 1957.

But what of all the lesser offerings, how to navigate through “everything else”? I decide to launch an LJC Demystifying Blue Train Tour.
The significance of the NEW YORK 23 address on one label side only, either 1 or 2, is documented precisely by our trusty Guide Fred Cohen. It is hardly a rare record, with over 3,500 auctions captured on Popsike, but in the face of supply and demand, even lesser editions command substantial sums, but top condition copies are at a serious premium.īattle-hardened collectors and sellers know the insider signs of early provenance (“original 1st press, insanely rare, yada yada”), but as always, there is a lack of generally available information, though no shortage of Discogs entries – 224 entries when I last looked, not all reliable, like the New York 23 label entry illustrated with a back cover address BLUE NOTE RECORDS INC. Top copies now sell at over $6,000, hitherto the territory of rarest Mobley 1568. One of most sought after “original Blue Notes” is the iconic Coltrane album Blue Train.

Woo-woo! Full steam ahead, Mr Sulu! Scotty: Captain, Captain, our stocks of coal are running low!! Blue Train! Batten down the hatches, buckle up, we are going on a Deep Dive! Mangled metaphor, LJC ? It’s not a submarine or a plane, it’s a train OK.
