LP, Vinyl record album

✈
❔
Freddie Hubbard at the peak of his 70s powers – and one of his finest albums of the decade! The record follows strongly in the tone that Freddie set at CTI on his mighty Red Clay and Sky Dive sets – long, drawn out tracks – done with lots of electricity in the rhythms, and a very cosmic approach to the solos! The groove is funky, yet easygoing – open and never too uptight – and served up with great help from Hubert Laws on reeds, George Benson on guitar, and Ron Carter on bass! Titles include "Keep Your Soul Together", "Spirits Of Trane", "Destiny's Children", and "Brigitte".  © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.
(Original pressing with RVG stamp. Vinyl plays with a short click on track two. Cover is great!)

Very Good + (plus)

  • Vinyl should be very clean, but can have less luster than near mint.
  • Should still shine under a light, but one or two marks may show up when tilted.
  • Can have a few small marks that may show up easily, but which do not affect play at all. Most marks of this quality will disappear when the record is tilted, and will not be felt with the back of a fingernail.
  • This is the kind of record that will play "near mint", but which will have some signs of use (although not major ones).
  • May have slight surface noise when played.

Additional Marks & Notes

If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.

Keystone Bop
Fantasy, 1981. Near Mint-
Keystone bop indeed – a smoking little set from Freddie Hubbard, recorded during his great back-to-basics years of the early 80s!

Hub-Tones

California Concert
CTI, 1971. Very Good 2LP Gatefold
A killer concert all the way through – and a great showcase for the CTI sound!

LP, Vinyl record album

Stanley Turrentine

Cherry (80s pressing)
CTI, 1972. Very Good+
One of the best CTI albums from the early 70s – and one of Stanley Turrentine's funkiest records as well!

Gerry Mulligan & Chet Baker

Carnegie Hall Concert Volume 1
CTI, 1974. Near Mint- Gatefold
A surprisingly wonderful 70s meeting between Gerry Mulligan & Chet Baker – recorded live, with sweet electric touches from CTI – in a style that shouldn't work so well, but which really comes off great!

Don't Mess With Mister T
CTI, 1973. Very Good+ Gatefold
Stanley Turrentine meets Bob James – on a record that's one of the 70s classics on CTI!

CTI, 1974. Near Mint- Gatefold
Milt Jackson's third album for CTI – part of a wonderful run that really helped him redefine his sound in the 70s!

Deodato

Prelude
CTI, 1973. Very Good+ Gatefold
A legendary album from the 70s funk scene – and one of the crowning achievements of keyboard maestro Eumir Deodato!
