I am collecting several 60's artists, Miles is one. However, I have purchased what looked to be so called 1st Ed only to find out the seller assumed it was via the catalog number only and not the labels. This is a difficult task for the casual seller and buyer. I feel the 1st pressings in M or M- are the best to my ears.
Master is cleaner in the first pressings. 

Is there anyone who has a favorite method or site to double check on ANY jazz 1st editions?

Record collecting books are your best bet, and Goldmine is usually considered the best.
I have several of their books, but I would imagine they are online now too.

Pre WWW I used GM for all my record needs via 1800 stores.  I have 3 boxes of the originals stored? Hmm...

I need to check for an online version. Thank you for the reminderBig smile

Goldmine also has some specialty books that cover just jazz.
