Original AFRTS transcription LP RL‑40‑2, pairing David T. Walker’s soulful jazz‑guitar interpretations with Boots Randolph’s saxophone‑driven instrumental standards. Produced exclusively for U.S. service members and distributed to bases and broadcast facilities worldwide, AFRTS discs were never sold commercially. Walker’s side includes instrumental takes on “Only Love Can Break Your Heart,” “I Believe in Music,” and “What’s Going On,” showcasing his signature smooth‑soul guitar tone. Boots Randolph delivers classic instrumental pop and jazz standards including “Misty,” “Tenderly,” and “Theme from Black Orpheus.” A strong instrumental AFRTS pairing with crossover jazz, soul, and MOR appeal.
Photo Note: The circular “ring” visible in some images is only a reflection from the ring light used during photography. It is not present on the record or sleeve itself. Records are photographed under this lighting to highlight gloss, label clarity, and surface details as clearly as possible.

VG record / VG sleeve. Both sides retain strong, reflective gloss with light hairlines, minor dot scuffs, and minimal sleeve scuffing. Side 1 plays VG+ with faint surface noise early on that settles quickly; one faint pop in the first few rotations and a brief audible artifact in the dead zone between Tracks 4 and 5. Side 2 plays VG with typical AFRTS surface noise and several faint pops on Track 1 that are difficult to distinguish under the saxophone; no skips detected. Labels show handwritten “instermental” and “23,” minor discoloration, and small areas of print loss. Sleeve is VG with a ~1\" tear at the center hole and light creasing; no seam splits. Playback may vary depending on equipment; sold as‑is.
Photo Note: The circular “ring” visible in some images is only a reflection from the ring light used during photography. It is not present on the record or sleeve.
Grading Note: AFRTS transcription discs are unique non‑commercial pressings, often showing quirks from their service use and occasional factory flaws. They frequently play best on higher‑end equipment. I grade conservatively and document anomalies such as label wear, sleeve markings, gloss wear, rubs, and playback notes so buyers know exactly what they’re getting.
