I'm really curious where/when you got your "one labeled" copy of this record. Details please.

Transition labels fall off all the time (except for TRLP-1, Jazz in a Stable which has "normal" deep-groove labels). I think they glued them on in some sort of "mom and pop" operation and over the years they just fall off. I once owned a copy of "Jazz Advance" with NO labels!!

I believe the smaller labels sometimes used polystyrene instead of polyvinyl chloride . Polystyrene required injection molding rather than compression molding , which meant labels had to be glued on instead of being integrated into the record . Polystyrene is prone to more surface noise than is vinyl, though pressings made from recycled or re-used vinyl also suffer from surface noise .

Transition and Debut and other small labels issued lps on polystyrene .

I understand that! I was asking a question.

I was asking the question 'cause I sold a copy (missing the B side label) about 10 years ago. I got something like $1000 for it. The pressing was as close to mint as a Transition could be.

I paid $250 or so. The vinyl is NM, the jacket is in two pieces but still nice and no booklet. I couldn't BELIEVE I got it that cheap. Seller was in New England and wasn't really into jazz at all--didn't know what he had and was shocked he got so much . . .

Nice session.
