JJ Johnson —
Really Livin ... LP 
Columbia, 1959. Near Mint- ... $24.99
One of the hippest, hardest albums that trombonist JJ Johnson ever cut for Columbia – a session we'd rank right up there with his amazing JJ Inc record, and like that one a really cooking hardbop record that maybe even rivals the best on Blue Note and Prestige at the time! As with that gem, ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

JJ Johnson & Nat Adderley —
Yokohama Concert ... LP Pablo, 1977. Near Mint- 2LP Gatefold ... $7.99
A really great set – with a feel that's better than most other work from the time by the players!

JJ Johnson Quintet —
Dial J J 5 ... CD 
Columbia (Japan), Early 60s. Used ... $9.99
One of JJ's best from the late 50s – a tightly crackling hardbop set, recorded very much in the manner of his classic JJ Inc album! The sound here is a bit more compact overall – with some shorter tracks that really allow Johnson to display his keen sense of economy on his horn, while ... (Jazz) read more CD
(1993 Japanese pressing. Cover has radio call letters in marker and two faint sticker marks.)
Josh Johnson —
Unusual Object ... LP Northern Spy, 2024. New Copy ... $18.99 19.99
A solo record, but one that's got the sound of more things at once than you might expect – as saxophonist Josh Johnson has this great way of processing the sound from his horns, then layering them with samples and other elements too – but all in a way that's never gimmicky, and really ...

Lou Johnson —
(There's) Always Something There To Remind Me/
Big Hill, 1964. Very Good ... Just Sold Out!
Early brilliance from Burt Bacharach – 2 early soul productions for singer Lou Johnson!

Very Rare ... CD Evidence, 1979. Used ... $18.99
Very rare indeed – and one of the best 70s albums from Elvin Jones – thanks to a tight quartet lineup who follow his every move with tremendous energy!

Elvin Jones & McCoy Tyner —
Love & Peace ... CD Venus (Japan), 1982. Used ... $18.99
A wonderful later album from these two Coltrane bandmembers – reunited here in the early 80s, working in a mode that's very much in keeping with their rich spiritual jazz legacy!

My Mother's Eyes ... LP Muse, 1977. Very Good+ ... Just Sold Out!

Grace Jones —
Nightclubbing ... LP Island, 1981. Very Good ... Just Sold Out!
One of our favorite albums ever from Grace Jones – a record that has her shedding some of the disco excesses of earlier years, and moving into a great blend of sounds that really showcases the energy of the New York scene from which she sprang!

Quincy Jones —
Italian Job ... CD Paramount/Universal (Japan), 1969. New Copy ... $12.99 16.99
A really wonderful Quincy Jones soundtrack from the end of the 60s – and one that's a bit different than some of his other work of the decade! The film's a very cool British heist story, with Michael Caine in the lead – and while Quincy brings in plenty of the jazz of his background, ... (Soundtracks) read more CD
Quincy Jones —
Love, Q – Greatest Love Songs ... CD Hip-O, 1970s/1980s/1990s. Used ... $6.99
Sweet sweet Quincy! Although the Q's probably best remembered round these parts for his funky 70s work or classic 60s soundtracks, we also have to admit that we love him for his mellow grooves – the sly and seductive tunes that often hid out amidst his albums of the 70s and 80s, and which ...

The fourth album from Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings – solidifying what we learned pretty early on from the indomitable soul spirit that is Sharon and her impeccable combo the Dap-Kings – it's that this is not some retro soul revival novelty act, what they are is the greatest active ...

Tamiko Jones —
Cloudy ... LP Atlantis II, 1977. Very Good ... $9.99
Probably the greatest album by Tamiko Jones – and one that does an excellent job of matching arrangements to her sweet seductive vocal style.

Tamiko Jones —
I'll Be Anything For You ... LP A&M/CTI, 1968. Sealed ... $6.99
Fantastic work from Tamiko Jones – one of the more enigmatic soul singers of her generation!

Jones Girls —
Keep It Comin' ... LP Philadelphia International, 1984. Near Mint- ... Just Sold Out!
Nice obscure Jones Girls album that gives the ladies a good electro 80's groove. Kenny Burke wrote and produced the title cut, "Keep It Comin", which is a nice slammin' dancefloor track, with a feel that's similar to Kenny's own work from the time. He also handled a few other tracks on ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Clifford Jordan/DIW (Japan), 1990. Used ... Just Sold Out!
Not the smooth fusion group of the same name, but a tight acoustic quartet with some great tenor from the mighty Clifford Jordan – in a lineup that also includes James Williams on piano, Richard Davis on bass, and Ronnie Burrage on drums!

Duke Jordan —
Les Liaisons Dangereuses ... LP Charlie Parker, 1962. Very Good ... $7.99
Pianist Duke Jordan takes on the groovy score to the French film Les Liasions Dangereuses – material best known via Art Blakey's original recording with tenorist Barney Wilen – but equally great here in Jordan's lesser-known version!

Sheila Jordan —
Portrait Of Sheila ... CD Blue Note, 1962. Used ... $4.99
One of the only two vocal jazz albums that the Blue Note label recorded back in the day – and a haunting batch of tracks from a young Sheila Jordan!

Linger Awhile ... CD Verve, 2022. New Copy ... $13.99 14.99
Samara Joy is a rare jazz singer – the sort who manages to have ties to the past, but also really bring so much of her own spirit to the music – not subtle inflections on the tunes, but instead this really personal style that has her absorbing older tracks and turning them into ...

Too Much ... LP Atlantic/Lawson (Japan), 1971. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... $49.99 58.99
One of the rarest Japanese hard rock albums of the 70s – and one of the heaviest too – a record that's definitely got plenty of the "too much" promised by the title and group! Juni Rush handles lead vocals, but the guitar work of Tutomu Ogawa may well be the equally strong ... (Japanese) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Closest Thing To Silence (gray vinyl pressing) ... LP International Anthem, 2024. New Copy ... $26.99 28.99

A hard-swinging session that's much hipper than you might guess from the "hi fi" or "west coast" in the title – recorded with none of the cliches that both tags might make you think – and instead a well-crafted set of solos from the mighty Richie Kamuca!

A legendary pairing of talents – as Japanese jazz singer Kimiko Kasai works alongside Herbie Hancock – in a setting that's very much on the soul side of the spectrum!

A really well-recorded piano trio album – one that, like the others on the Sam First label, come across with a richness that's very different than just a standard live jazz record – this sonic sensitivity that really brings out a strongly resonant quality in the performance!

King Albert ... LP Tomato, 1977. Very Good+ ... $8.99
A tight date from 1977, and one that follows nicely in the spirit of King's later Stax sides, but with a slightly smoother groove.

Midnight Believer ... LP ABC, 1978. Very Good+ ... $9.99
One of the most tightly-produced of BB King's albums for MCA, but a set that's still filled with undeniable charm – and which really shows King more than able to step up to some well-deserved superstardom!

American Dream ... LP Dooto, Mid 60s. Very Good ... $6.99
Supposedly one of the first records of Dr King's speeches to be recorded – put together by Dootsie Williams in LA, and the forebearer of what would become a very popular genre in the 60s!
