Lonesome Bedroom Blues ... LP Delmark, 1962. Very Good ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
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!

Obscure disco work from Doris Jones – a good fit here for the upbeat arrangements of the tunes!

Amazing pressing of this one – plays at 45 rpm, and comes in a very special package – plastic heavy sleeve, with a special insert for the record!

One of Elvin Jones' greatest records – a set that's quite different from both his work in the John Coltrane Quartet, and some of the powerhouse jazz sides he'd cut later as a solo act!
