Delmark, 1962. Very Good ... $9.99
Piano blues from the legendary Curtis Jones – a Texas player who first rose to fame in the late 30s, and who here still has a way with the keys and a vocal style that nobody else can touch! It's a bit hard to put the distinctness of Jones in words, but it definitely comes through on the ... (Blues) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Northern Spy, 2021. Near Mint- ... $14.99
Strong solo work from saxophonist Darius Jones – a set that really lives up to both the "raw" and the "lone operation" in the title – as Jones blows here in a space that's very much all his own – with raw emotionality in the spotlight all the way through! Yet ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Roulette, Early 60s. Very Good ... $9.99
An overlooked gem from jazz singer Etta Jones – an effort cut around the same time as her better-known records for Prestige, but one that's maybe done with an even hipper sound overall!

Prestige, Early 60s. Near Mint- ... $5.99 7.99

Sussex, 1971. Near Mint- Gatefold ... $13.99
A strange little film with a western motif – starring Bill Cosby, Leif Erikson, and Yaphet Kotto!
