Jazz -- In Stock -- CDs  

A really unique chapter in the career of Ornette Coleman -- an album that he produced by himself in 1962, away from any other label -- as an effort to showcase the newly freer sounds of his music! The recording's the first in a really groundbreaking stretch for the 60s -- and it was fortunately... read more

Beautiful stuff from this cool Estonian jazz collective -- a very unique group whose sound reminds us of work we've heard from hip French soundtracks, and from some of the cooler reaches of the European jazz scene in the 60s! Many of the tracks here have vocals -- kind of scatted, with a breezy... read more

A Graham Collier triple-header -- 3 albums on 2CDs! First up is Darius -- a fantastic set of stretched-out jazz, built upon modal formations -- very searching, but never too free, and always with a sense of purposeful emotion that really holds the whole thing together! The set's a great chapter... read more

Not work by Jackson Pollock, but three different sets of recordings from legendary British composer/jazzman Graham Collier -- a much-needed look at his musical growth during the last decade or so! CD one features "Forty Years On" -- an assemblage of Collier-penned tunes, played by a... read more

Trumpeter Dick Collins plays with a "runaway herd" of saxophonists culled from the band of his boss, Woody Herman -- a really great lineup that features Al Cohn on tenor, Med Flory on alto, Jack Nimitz on baritone, and Bill Perkins on flute and tenor too! The blend of reeds is totally... read more

Darkly brooding work from John Coltrane's early years as a leader on Prestige -- a very unique little record that features twin baritone sax support from Pepper Adams and Cecil Payne! Both players are wonderfully hip here -- more than enough to match Trane's unique musical vision for the group's... read more

A massive amount of greatness -- the first run of albums by John Coltrane as a leader, recorded for Prestige Records in 1957 and 1958, and packaged here with a huge booklet of notes as well!

A long-overdue, much-needed set -- one that finally pulls together all the great material recorded by John Coltrane as a sideman for Prestige Records -- sessions that were scattered over a number of different albums issued over a few decades in time! The work here has cropped up often, but has... read more

Plenty of jazz giants here -- some of the biggest heavyweights of John Coltrane's generation, working here either as leaders of the dates, or sidemen on some of Coltrane's earliest recordings for Prestige! The package features material originally issued under the names of Miles Davis, Tadd Dameron... read more

Coltrane caught live in France in 1962 -- working with the classic quartet of McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison, and Elvin Jones. The set's surprisingly well recorded (although transferred here on the CD from vinyl, with a few flaws) -- and features extended readings of classic Coltrane tunes from the... read more

4 long tracks with plenty of room to roam around -- a perfect setting for a young John Coltrane to demonstrate his distinctly different approach to the tenor sax!

John Coltrane made plenty of great music during his late 50s time at the Prestige Records label -- some of it under his own name, and a lot more while working with other leaders! This package presents the full recordings from that second half of Coltrane's Prestige performances -- material... read more

A beautiful album that more than lives up to its evocative title -- an early session from John Coltrane, filled with long tracks that slide along brilliantly! As with many other classic Prestige albums from Trane, backing is by the trio of Red Garland piano, Paul Chambers bass, and Art Taylor... read more

A beautiful meeting of two major talents from the left end of jazz -- recorded in the early 60's when both were working for Atlantic! Despite the "avant garde" title, this set is straighter than you'd expect -- very much in the spirit of Coltrane's work for the label, but with perhaps... read more

An essential piece of 60s avant garde jazz that often gets overlooked because the album is split between two different leaders -- but with John Coltrane and Archie Shepp at the helm, what leaders they be! Shepp leads a quartet that includes Bobby Hutcherson on vibes, Barre Phillips on bass, and... read more

"Spontaneous collective improvisations" from the Command All Stars -- a batch of some of the best British jazzmen of the early 70s, recording in very free formation at the Command Studios under the guidance of Robert Fripp!

An excellent LP that brings together a dozen tracks from some of Chris' lesser-known recordings for the Bethlehem label -- originally released as eps and early 10" LPs. Backing on the set is by The Ellis Larkins Trio, The Vinnie Burke Quartet, The Ralph Sharon combo, and Sy Oliver's orchestra... read more

A sublime album through and through -- and another essential slice of work from the legendary Nicola Conte! Conte's only given us a few full length sets under his own name, but they've all been amazing, and this album's no exception -- a record that mostly features live jazz instrumentation,... read more

A long-overdue collection of all the mixes, side-projects, and rare "Nicola Conte version" tracks that have cropped up in the past decade or so -- work that's every bit as great as the material Conte includes on his own albums and singles! Nicola Conte's not a remixer -- he's a re-imagine... read more

A key album in Chick Corea's shift from Latin jazz to arch-modern -- recorded with Circle bandmates Dave Holland on bass and Barry Altschul on drums, and done with a free sound that's quite unusual for Blue Note at the time! Chick's out on this one -- way out -- in that free mode of his first... read more

Really classic-styled fusion from the team of Chick Corea and John McLaughlin -- a record that almost rivals any of their legendary sets recorded back in the 70s! The group here is a really old school fusion ensemble -- Corea on keyboards, McLaughlin on guitar, and other great players who include... read more

Plenty of poise here -- a lot more restraint than before for guitarist Larry Coryell, but still plenty of soul as well! The rhythm section is a key element of the set -- as it features Stanley Cowell on piano, Buster Williams on bass, and Billy Hart on drums -- all working in different modes than... read more

A funky masterpiece from Bill Cosby -- hardly the sort of record you might expect from all of his years on mainstream TV! This set was cut back when Bill was a much hipper cat on the LA scene -- and it was the start of a brief all-instrumental run with his Badfoot Brown ensemble -- a group who's... read more

A step deeper into underground jazz from Cosiner -- working here with James Andrews, whose worked as part Horace Tapscott's Pan-Afrikan Peoples Arkestra among others -- purportedly the first installment of an ongoing project, and we hope that pans out! On Visions, Cosiner's ambient atmospherics... read more

A surprisingly wonderful recent album from Stanley Cowell -- soul jazz piano of the 70s, but sounding equally great here in his later years! Cowell is playing acoustic piano in a trio with Tarus Mateen on bass and Nasheet Waits on drums -- and his tones are round, warm, and very rhythmic --... read more

A magical session of equally-matched players -- one that's less of a straight trio set than a joint collaboration between piano, bass, and drums! Stanley Cowell's work on the keys is certainly a strong force in the set -- but the loose and lively drum work of Waits is every bit as much a key... read more

An excellent bit of spiritual soul jazz on Horace Tapscott's Nimbus label -- featuring a group led by pianist Kaeef Rauzadun that includes Henry Franklin on bass, George Bohannon on trombone, Wilbert Hemsley on tenor, and Gary Bias on alto and soprano sax. The album's also got some beautiful... read more

Two recent collaborations from pianist Marilyn Crispell -- both of which have her working in the company of important younger horn players! The first half of the set has Crispell at the helm of a quartet with the great Fredrik Ljungkvist on clarinet and tenor -- blowing with these angular lines... read more

We never tire of the saxophone work of Sonny Criss -- and this mid 70s gem is a perfect example of his brilliance! Sonny's sound on alto here is completely his own -- raspily, soulful style that's really unique -- and which draws strongly from Criss' rich life experience, including his years away... read more

Great later work from Sonny Criss -- very much in the format of his late 60s work for Prestige, but with an approach that's perhaps a bit more open-ended overall! The vibe here is laidback and soulful -- Sonny blowing alto sax in that wonderful, all-his-own sort of tone -- a sound that's almost... read more

A fantastically beautiful album that strongly proves the old jazz adage "It's not the song, but the singer"! The "singer" in this case is alto player Sonny Criss -- and the songs are a middle of the road batch of compositions, like "Sunny", "Willow Weep For... read more

Rare French jazz from the late 50s and early 60s -- previously issued only as 7" eps, and finally properly issued for the first time! The standout material here is by Sonny Criss -- pulled from 2 different eps issued in 1963, recorded when he'd dropped out of the LA scene, and was... read more

On this one, the Crusaders definitely crossed from jazz into funk -- but who cares, because the album's so darn great! The disc's got a tight LA groove, with some excellent electric keyboards, sweet sax solos, and tight drumming throughout. True proof that sometimes a lot of money can be put to... read more

Sweet funky Crusaders -- one of the first records the group made after dropping the "Jazz" from their name, and a soulful electric set through and through! The group still have that tightly-crafted soul jazz sound that made their late 60s recordings so great -- but they're also... read more

The Crusaders standing tall at the start of the 80s -- getting great grooves from the lean trio of Wilton Felder on saxes and bass, Joe Sample on keyboards, and Stix Hooper on drums! The mighty Barry Finnerty handles most of the guitar solos here -- although David T Walker also plays a bit too --... read more

Damn great work from Ronnie Cuber -- one of the greatest baritone saxophonists still working the scene today -- and a player who handles the heavy horn with all the dexterity of a tenorist! Ronnie's horn has graced many a session over the years, but he's always at his best on the few dates that... read more

A fierce early album from Ted Curson -- one with a slight bit of a Latin touch, and all the fire that the title implies! Ted's working here with a quintet that include Gildo Mahones on piano, George Tucker on bass, Roy Haynes on drums, and Montego Joe on a few tracks on conga. The groove is more... read more

Fantastic work from the team of Ted Curson and Bill Barron -- a rare French session from 1964, one that captures all the brilliance of their American work from the early 60s! The set features the pair playing in an extremely fragmented mode -- no doubt inspired by the recent loss of Eric Dolphy,... read more

Surprisingly lyrical duets between the C, D, and E trio -- Andrew Cyrille on percussion, Mark Dresser on bass, and Marty Erlich on sax, clarinet, and flute! The space is quite free, but players never go too far out -- and instead, there's often a nice sense of structure, and an almost melodic... read more

A tremendous groover from the same jazzy scene that gave us the Five Corners Quintet -- a record that's filled with joy, life, and plenty of great jazz-based instrumentation! Like Five Corners, Dalindeo play all their instruments live -- working in a blend of funky flute, trumpet, guitar, bass,... read more

An amazing step forward for Dalindeo -- a set that's even more beautiful and complex than previous efforts for the Ricky Tick label! This time around, the style's billed as "cinematic jazz" -- and you can definitely hear that approach in the music -- a rich blend of live jazz... read more

Warm and mellow keyboards from the great Jorge Dalto -- an obscure Japanese set from the early 80s, but one that has all the spacious grooves of his US classic from the 70s! Jorge plays a range of acoustic and electric keys here -- mostly in a small group setting that features guitar from Barry... read more

Great jazzy work from keyboardist Jorge Dalto -- a set that's got a warmer, more acoustic feel than some of his other fusion-based material from the time! Jorge still plays both electric and acoustic keyboards for the date -- but the overall format is a lot more stripped down, and strongly rooted... read more

A sublime early set from John Coltrane -- and one of Tadd Dameron's greatest moments on record ever! The session's a laidback quartet one -- with John Simmons on bass and Philly Joe Jones on drums, completing the group with Dameron on piano and Trane on tenor -- all coming together in a style that'... read more

An amazing blend of free jazz and fusiony touches -- a partially electric session that's a real standout in the New York loft jazz scene! The album was produced by Noah Howard at Ornette Coleman's Artist House studio -- but it's got a sound that's quite different from work by either of those big... read more

Not the typical early 70s record from reeds player Eddie Daniels -- a warmer, more appealing than a lot of his work! Blue Bossa finds Daniels working as duo with guitarist Bucky Pizzarelli , with Daniels on clarinet, bass clarinet, flute and alto flute on some really nice bossa inflected numbers,... read more

A funkier fusion set than usual for Eddie Daniels -- a great late 70s project for TK Records, and one that's done without some of the too-smooth styles of later years! Eddie's definitely going for a Kudu Records vibe here -- one that mixes in doses of soul with the instrumentation, using just a... read more

Great work from saxophonist Charles Davis -- a player who doesn't always get to record as a leader, but who always turns out tremendous material whenever he gets the chance! This date's an early 90s gem cut with pianist Barry Harris -- a session that's steeped in soul, and which has plenty of the... read more

Volume 2 of Lockjaw's classic early Cookbook sessions -- cut for Prestige in a key transitional moment, when Lock was trying to break past the R&B roots of earlier years, and emerge as a more sophisticated jazz soloist, capable of carrying an idea way past the short format of singles and... read more

Lockjaw and Griff were a mighty team together -- and their records from the 60s cook with incredible intensity. This great set was recorded at Minton's Playhouse in Harlem, on January 6, 1961 -- as part of a marathon live session that was a big seller for Prestige. The group's incredible -- a... read more

Don't pass this one up! Although lots of other albums by Eddie Lockjaw Davis are laidback quartet and quintet sessions, done in a soul jazz organ/tenor mode -- this session features Eddie working with stunning bigger band backings, in a searingly soulful sound that's simply incredible! The... read more

The title's terrible, but the album's a great one -- a really classic-styled jam session, of the sort that the Prestige label hardly ever recorded! The session features 4 tenor giants of slightly older vintage -- Eddie Lockjaw Davis, Coleman Hawkins, Arnett Cobb, and Buddy Tate -- all coming... read more

The title's terrible, but the album's a great one -- a really classic-styled jam session, of the sort that the Prestige label hardly ever recorded! The session features 4 tenor giants of slightly older vintage -- Eddie Lockjaw Davis, Coleman Hawkins, Arnett Cobb, and Buddy Tate -- all coming... read more

One of Miles Davis' last albums -- and a swirling batch of "color" tracks that's almost a blending of his Gil Evans work with the early electric years! The album's one long extended suite -- and it's got a moody feel that's really great -- a shifting, shimmering sound that takes us back... read more

One of the great Miles 70s groove albums -- an album that's often as funky as you might expect from the cover, with a sound that's gone onto become the stuff of legend over the years! The noise of previous electric sessions is nicely toned down a bit here -- leaving lots more room for soulful... read more

One of the few cases in jazz where an oft-played classic still resonates with power! The record itself is a key cap to Miles Davis' already-groundbreaking years of the 60s -- a bold step forward, not just for his nascent electric sound, but also for jazz in general -- and the benchmark by which so... read more

4 sides of noisy, funky, stretched-out playing from Miles Davis -- recorded at the Fillmore West, but with an intensity that matches some of Miles' crazy electric recordings from Japan during the early 70s! The music is a powerful blast of music that stretches out over the double-length set of the... read more

Some of Miles noisiest, freest playing from the 70s -- recorded live at Carnegie Hall in 1974, and originally issued only in Japan -- most likely because the album was so darn noisy, Columbia was scared to release it to the American market! As with other Davis gems from this time, the group is as... read more

A dark blend of acoustic and electric modes from Miles Davis -- a set that still has him working with elements of the classic 60s quintet, but which also brings in a stronger emphasis on electric piano too! The rhythms here are really fantastic -- ready to burst forth into a whole new direction,... read more

Breakneck live work from Miles Davis -- and proof that his famous 60s quintet wasn't only just about mellow and spacious sounds! The set was recorded at the same concert as the album My Funny Valentine -- and while that one's mostly ballads, this one's mostly high tempo numbers that skip along... read more

Miles Davis' last studio session before a few years of seclusion -- and a really monumental effort, probably the baddest of the electric period! The album does a great job of capturing the energy of the frenzied live sets from that time, and matching it with Teo Macero's cut and paste editing, and... read more

There's nothing "silent" here -- as the album's a bold entry in the electric years of Miles Davis -- one that still features contributions from Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, and Tony Williams -- but which also expands the lineup considerably -- really reaching out towards the sound of... read more

What can we say? This is the ultimate Miles Davis album -- the one that includes so many songs that we've heard way too much in Starbucks, in retail stores, or at a friend's house who claims to be a "jazz expert", but is really a yuppie dilettante. Yet somehow, over all the years, and... read more

Previously-unreleased live work by one of Miles Davis' most important groups ever -- a Bitches Brew-era lineup, playing live at the Fillmore East a month before the record was released to the public -- which makes this performance one of the first times the world had ever heard jams like this! The... read more

A beautiful live representation of the energy of the Bitches Brew years -- one that has Miles Davis and the group really letting loose with free-flowing, modally-inspired lines -- cooking up an incredible blend of acoustic and electric sounds at once! There's a bit of funk here, but not much --... read more

A nice little later album from Miles Davis -- one that still has some sharp edges and interesting moments that refine the earlier electric sound of the 70s!

Four sides of long improvised grooves from Miles Davis -- a set that's quite similar to the classic studio album Bitches Brew, but which captures the sound in more open live setting! Each track on each side is named "Wednesday Miles", "Thursday Miles", and so on -- after the... read more

Massive double-length Miles from the early 70s -- some of his most inventive long form work of the time, and some of his funkiest too!

Miles Davis and his Quartet doing their thing at the 1963 Monterey Jazz Fest -- a previously unreleased set that finds Miles & Co in peak live form! The group isn't out to set the world on fire with this performance, but they're certainly pushing the form and structure of modern jazz in a way... read more

Miles Davis makes the electric transition -- in this groundbreaking set from the late 60s! The classic mid 60s quintet is still in place here -- Wayne Shorter on tenor, Herbie Hancock on piano, Ron Carter on bass, and Tony Williams on drums -- but the sound is looser, freer, and more spacious --... read more

A beautiful little record by Miles Davis -- oft overlooked next to some of the better-titled Prestige sessions of the 50s, but a great one nonetheless!

A key point in the development of the Miles Davis sound of the 60s -- his first album to feature work from Herbie Hancock, Ron Carter, and Tony Williams -- augmented by some equally nice work on other tracks from Victor Feldman and Frank Butler! The sound here is beautifully spare -- a wonderful... read more

A beautiful collaboration between Miles Davis and the great Gil Evans -- and perhaps the most perfectly realized of all their projects! The album's got a wonderfully unified feel -- as it begins with long compositions that have a distinct Spanish-tinge (and not a Latin-tinge, which is an important... read more

A masterful tribute from one bad cat to another -- and easily one of Miles Davis' greatest electric albums ever! The album's got a powerful, epic sort of feel -- a renewed focus after the looser style of Bitches Brew, and the 70s live albums -- and one that mixes a deeper funky sound with the raw,... read more

A much different album than you might expect from the cover -- hardly the funky 70s set implied by the Big Fun-styled cover -- and instead a lost slice of work from his groundbreaking late 60s years! The set was recorded in 1967, but unissued until Miles late 70s time away from the studio -- hence... read more

Essential work from Nathan Davis -- one of our favorite jazz musicians ever! Davis is one of those cats who you'll never find mentioned in the mainstream, but his music has had a profound influence on our groove for many years -- an essential soul jazz style that is finally given full due by this... read more

Quite possibly the funkiest album ever recorded by saxophone legend Nathan Davis -- a sweet little session with plenty of electric touches! The sound here differs greatly from Davis' 60s work on the European scene -- his amazing albums for MPS and Polydor -- and the record's awash in funky drum... read more

One of the first true moments of genius from saxophonist Nathan Davis -- a mid 60s European session cut for the tiny SFP label -- and a record that's even rarer than his early classics for MPS! The sound here is similar to the MPS sides -- a mixture of soul jazz and modal jazz -- served up with a... read more

One of Richard Davis' hippest records of the 70s -- a live session recorded with two very strong hornmen in front -- Clifford Jordan on tenor and Hannibal Peterson on trumpet, both blowing beautifully in very spacious, and open-ended styles! The album only features two long tracks -- each running... read more

Bassist Richard Davis doesn't always get the chance to record as a leader -- but when he does, the result is always something special! This late 90s session has Davis in some very heady territory -- recording in Paris with a group that features Ricky Ford on tenor, Curtis Clark on piano, and... read more

A sweet blend of west coast jazz and Brazilian rhythms -- and one of our favorite records ever from trombonist Raul De Souza! The session's got a more soulful, jazzy feel than some of Raul's other dates from the 70s -- not nearly as tight as his sets for Capitol, with an earthy undercurrent in the... read more

One of the greatest albums we've ever heard from organist Joey DeFrancesco -- a record that burns with strongly soulful work by Bobby Hutcherson! Hutcherson really helps Joey really flesh out his standard Hammond groove for the set -- pushing the organ into broad new colors on both the ballads and... read more

An unusual set for organist Joey De Francesco -- because he not only plays his usual Hammond, but also sings a bit as well! Joey's vocal style is surprisingly great -- kind of that honest male mode that came up in the farther reaches of the 50s -- the way a musician might croon in a small club,... read more

Wonderful music throughout -- and an album that's as beautifully written as it is played! The work represents one of the few long-form concept compositions from Nelson Riddle -- an extended "Cross Country Suite" of trcks that take the listener on a tour of the US -- performed here with... read more

A beautiful Buddy DeFranco album from the 70s -- one that really shows a lot of change in his style since his better-known sessions of the 50s!

Delightful Duets, indeed -- as Herb Geller's alto sounds really wonderful here in the company of Rein DeGraaff's piano! Geller's one of those players who never dimmed with age -- and even obscure later sessions like this are filled with that sharp-edged tone that first found fame in the 50s --... read more

One of the few albums as a leader cut by pianist John Dennis -- noteworthy not only for his own great work on the keys, but also for the presence of Charles Mingus and Max Roach in his trio! Their presence is a bit less surprising when you realize that the album was issued on the pair's Debut... read more

Funky keyboards galore -- and one of the greatest records ever from this legendary Brazilian jazz talent! The album follows nicely off Deodato's Prelude classic for CTI -- and like that one, this set's built on long-flowing tunes that rise and fall with a wonderful sense of rhythm -- a sublime... read more

2 tasty sides from Deodato's soul-based years -- both albums that roll along with a nice little R&B-inspired groove! Happy Hour was done at a time when Deodato was really getting into a lot of modern soul production and arranging work with other groups -- and here, he tries his hand... read more

Late 70s work from Deodato -- quite different than his bossa organ work of the 60s, and early 70s funk sides -- but pretty darn great nonetheless! The album shows Deodato's continuing shift towards a more soul-based sound -- and it mixes together a smoother club sound with jazzier elements of... read more

Two post-CTI gems from Deodato -- back to back on a single CD! Whirlwinds is sweet keyboard soul from Deodato -- a set that steps off nicely from the strengths of his big hits on CTI, hitting a similarly flowing groove that's really great!

The best Deodato album we've heard in years -- a spare trio set that hearkens back to his best jazz funk years of the 70s!

One of the most unique albums on the Strata East label -- and that's saying a heck of a lot, given the creative energies flowing through that legendary jazz outlet!

Paul Desmond serves up his own versions of some key tunes by Simon & Garfunkel tunes -- with results that are simply amazing! The style here takes all the airy brilliance of the original S&G tunes, and turns it towards a more jazz-based mode -- one that has some of the slight Brazilian... read more

A reunion of sorts for Paul Desmond and Gerry Mulligan -- given that the pair had played together on record 5 years before, in a similar session for Verve! This album's almost lighter and more airy than the previous one -- as it's done in a mode that echoes strongly with Desmond's own genius at... read more

Atmospheric reed work from composer Andrew Raffo Dewar -- music that seems to start in the territory of some of Yusef Lateef's more exotic sides, then take off into much more abstract directions! The CD features two extended pieces -- the first of which is "Six Lines Of Transformation",... read more

Unbelievable -- and a record that's one of our favorites by the fantastic Italian jazz pianist! Marco Di Marco is a richly talented player with a keen ear for lyrical beauty and a strong sense of the groove -- and here, he's working in quartet formation, in New York, with a group that includes... read more
