Well Jim, I found a German 1977 pressing with the original cover on Discogs described as NM for a reasonable price, will compare it to the others.  Funny, I paid $25 new for the MOFI just 3 years ago, now they are listed on Discogs for over $100. 
Teddy Wilson And His Trio – Mr. Wilson And Mr. Gershwin (Columbia 1959 mono)
Well, still have the mono cart on the SOTA, so going to spin some of my mono vinyl this evening. It’s been a while.

This album I have I listened to once. I think it’s a fairly common feeling that not all great conductors are necessarily great composers. And, I wasn’t impressed the first time I listened to this, but, decided to try it again.

Wilhelm Furtwängler conducts Furtwängler - Symphony #2. Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra. Originally recorded in 1951. Deutsche Grammophon 2LP set, unknown release date. Mono.
Natalie Lamb & Sammy Price ‎– And The Blues
(G.H.B. 1980)

Been playing this a lot recently. Recommended. 
Budapest String Quartet - Beethoven: The Six Quartets, Op. 18. Odyssey reissue 3LP box set, 1969. Originally recorded 1951.

Mono

Been wanting to play this set for a while, but waited until I was unlazy enough to mount my mono cart. Just a fantastic recording and performances.
