Riverside/OJC, 1956. Used ... $11.99
One of our favorite Randy Weston albums from the early years – a set that moves past his simple trio and solo format, to offer some key experimentation with horns – in this case the creative work of Cecil Payne on baritone sax! Payne plays on most of the record – save for two ... (Jazz) read more CD

Don Wilkerson —
Texas Twister ... CD Riverside/OJC, 1960. Used ... Out Of Stock
One of the rarest albums by this great Texas tenor player – and the kind of album we're very happy to see reissued! This heavy little gem was one of the few sides that Wilkerson cut under his own name – and it was the only one recorded away from Blue Note, as part of Cannonball ... (Jazz) read more CD

Joe Williams Live ... CD Fantasy/OJC, 1973. Used ... Out Of Stock
One of the nice records made by Joe during his funky comeback of the late 60s/early 70s. He's singing here in a setting that's decidedly hipper than on earlier albums – with the early 70s Nat/Cannonball Adderley collective that includes George Duke on piano, Carol Kaye on bass, and ...

Lem Winchester & Benny Golson —
Winchester Special ... CD Prestige/OJC, 1959. Used ... Out Of Stock
Maybe the greatest album ever from vibist Lem Winchester – an early soulful star on his instrument, but one who was taken from us all too soon! Lem's got this groove that really brings the instrument forward a lot – a harder touch that rivals that of Johnny Lytle, but a looser, freer ... (Jazz) read more CD

Jimmy Woods —
Awakening!! ... CD Contemporary/OJC, 1961. Used ... Out Of Stock
Fantastic work by this obscure LA legend! Jimmy Woods was one of the unsung geniuses of the west coast scene at the start of the 60s – and the few recordings he ever made stand as some of the best examples of how the avant garde was feeding into the hard bop scene out there – and with ...

Contemporary/OJC, 1963. Used ... $26.99
An amazing album by the great lost altoist Jimmy Woods! Woods is a key part of the LA postwar jazz scene – with an alto style that's a link between Ornette's modernist tone and the more inside playing of other LA boppers. In a way, he's sort of a soul jazz Anthony Ortega – with the ... (Jazz) read more CD

Phil Woods —
Early Quintets ... CD Prestige/OJC, 1954/1959. Used ... Out Of Stock
Really wonderful work from alto genius Phil Woods – already showing a sense of tone and timing that breaks him away from all the Charlie Parker devotees on the market! The groups are great, and Jimmy Raney adds in some amazing chromatic work on guitar – bringing to Phil the same sort ... (Jazz) read more CD

Phil Woods & Donald Byrd —
Young Bloods ... CD Prestige/OJC, 1956. Used ... Out Of Stock
Excellent early work from Phil Woods on alto and Donald Byrd on trumpet – with piano from Al Haig, bass from Teddy Kotick, and drums from Charlie Persip! (Jazz) CD
(OJC pressing.)
Prestige/OJC, 1957. Used ... $12.99
The team of Phil Woods & Gene Quill hit Prestige Records – and get a bit more space to blow than on other sessions of the time! The album's definitely got a quality that lives up to the "with prestige" in the title – a classy, careful sort of sound that's very much the ... (Jazz) read more CD

Prestige/OJC, 1957. Used ... $19.99 24.99
Four altos in perfect formation – a record that captures a young Phil Woods at the height of his powers, and offers a rare non-baritone set from the great Sahib Shihab! The style here is similar to the Prestige tenor blowing sessions of the time – with core rhythms by a trio that ... (Jazz) read more CD

Albert Wynn & His Gutbucket Seven —
Chicago – The Living Legends (with bonus tracks) ... CD Riverside/OJC, 1961. Used ... Out Of Stock
Later work from trombonist Albert Wynn – sides cut after a 33 year absence from the recording studio – as part of the excellent Chicago Living Legends series on Riverside! The work has a tight trad jazz feel – but with a bit more space than you might find for solo expression in ... (Jazz) read more CD

Larry Young —
Groove Street ... CD Prestige/OJC, 1962. Used ... Out Of Stock
A very tight early session by the great organist Larry Young! The album's quite different than Young's later Blue Note work – more in-the-pocket soul jazz, but filled with the expansive sensibility that would later have him take off for the heavens. The biggest example of this tendency is ... (Jazz) read more CD

Larry Young —
Young Blues ... CD New Jazz/OJC, 1960. Used ... Out Of Stock
An early classic from organist Larry Young – cut before his groundbreaking Blue Note work, in a style that's more straightforward soul jazz, but still pretty darn great! Larry's working in a group that features Jimmy Smith's frequent partner, Thornel Schwartz, on guitar – plus bass by ... (Jazz) read more CD
