Riverside, 1960. Very Good- ... Just Sold Out!
Fantastic work from the Cannonball Adderley Quintet – one of their greatest performances from the seminal early 60s years! The band at this time includes Cannon on alto, Nat on cornet, Victor Feldman on piano, Sam Jones on bass, and Louis Hayes on drums – and although Feldman's not as ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Stereo black label pressing, with microphone logo, silver text, and deep groove. Vinyl has oxidation and plays with light surface noise. Cover has initials in marker. The back cover has 4 corner peel spots from tape removal.)
Joe Alexander —
Blue Jubilee ... LP Jazzland, 1960. Very Good ... Out Of Stock
A soul jazz masterpiece – and one of the rarest albums on the Jazzland label! Tenorist Joe Alexander has a mean, raw tone on the set – clearly influenced by the early 60s soul jazz generation, but also with some nicely off-beat tones that give him a really unique feel. He's backed ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Walter Benton —
Out Of This World ... LP Jazzland, 1960. Near Mint- ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
One of the few sessions ever recorded by tenor player Walter Benton – a great talent with a very strong voice, coming out of a gutsier 50s era, and growing into a capable hardbop player by the time of this set. The album's got Benton playing in a quintet that features Freddie Hubbard on ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Orange label Jazzland pressing with deep groove. Vinyl is great – cover has some light wear, and a small bit of tape in one corner.)
Tadd Dameron —
Classics Of Modern Jazz Vol 3 – The Tadd Dameron Band ... LP Jazzland, Late 40s/1962. Near Mint- ... $23.99
One of the few albums to feature the work of the legendary Tadd Dameron from his formative early years in bop – a time when Dameron's modernist modes were really helping to shape the sound of the scene! The groups are all pretty darn smoking, and the record features some classic work by Fats ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Orange label Jazzland pressing with deep groove.)
Eddie Lockjaw Davis & Johnny Griffin —
Griff & Lock ... LP Jazzland, 1961. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
Classic tenors head-to-head – as Griff & Lock lay out one of their excellent 2 tenor classics from the early 60s! The rhythm section's deeply soulful – with Junior Mance on piano, Larry Gales on bass, and Ben Riley on drums – and the album grooves through some long blowers, a ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Paul Gonsalves —
Gettin' Together ... LP Jazzland, 1960. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
A great small combo set from tenorist Paul Gonsalves – one of his best albums away from Duke Ellington, and a record that really opens up with his tremendous tone on the tenor! The group's a great small combo, with more of a soul jazz groove than usual for Paul – Nat Adderley on cornet ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Dexter Gordon —
Resurgence (aka Resugrence Of Dexter Gordon) ... LP Jazzland/Prestige, 1960. Very Good+ ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
An excellent album by Dexter Gordon – his first after a number of years spent without recording in the late 50s, and one that marked a real return to serious growth as a player during the 60s! The album takes the same approach as Dexter's soon to be recorded Blue Note classics – ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Early 80s pressing. NOTE: Majority of cover is stained and wavy. Vinyl is nice.)
Clifford Jordan —
Starting Time ... LP Jazzland, 1961. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
A great early Clifford Jordan record, and a tight bit of jazz from this great Chicago tenor player. Another Chicago favorite, Wilbur Ware, is on bass, and a young Cedar Walton's playing piano, and with warmth like that, Jordan and trumpeter Kenny Dorham sound great next to each other. Loads of ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Johnny Lytle —
Blue Vibes ... LP Jazzland, 1960. Very Good ... Out Of Stock
Excellent grooves that mix together vibes and organ! This is one of the early albums cut by soul jazz vibist Johnny Lytle – and although it's more stripped-down than later work, it's still got a nice groove, and a feel that's quite different from work by other jazz vibes players at the time. ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Thelonious Monk —
Thelonious Monk With John Coltrane ... LP Jazzland, 1957/Early 60s. Very Good ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A record that documents a meeting of two giants of modern jazz in the 50s – the angular genius Thelonious Monk, and the younger John Coltrane – a tenor player who was probably better-known for his work with Miles Davis during this period! The recordings are more Monk's than Coltrane's ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(80s OJC pressing. Cover has minimal wear.)
Wild Bill Moore —
Wild Bill's Beat ... LP Jazzland, 1961. Very Good+ ... Out Of Stock
A lost session from early 60s tenor titan Wild Bill Moore – an R&B inflected player who only cut a few sides on his own, all of them a unique mix of jazz with some of the more screaming R&B saxophone tendencies! This set features Bill rocking with a Latinized rhythm section – ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
George Shearing & The Montgomery Brothers —
George Shearing & The Montgomery Brothers ... LP Jazzland, 1961. Near Mint- ... $9.99
Some of jazz's most sensitive artists get together in a lyrical set of light-handed ditties. Shearing's piano is a surprisingly nice complement to the vibes/bass/guitar sound of The Montgomery Brothers – and the group is augmented by some nice Latin percussion. Tracks are short, and titles ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Mid 70s Japanese stereo pressing – SMJ-6087 – with obi & insert. NOTE – Cover is stained and slightly flaky at the bottom 3 inches, with clear tape holding the bottom seam and obi. Obi has some wrinkling in front and is held with clear tape in back.)
Frank Strozier —
Long Night ... LP Jazzland, 1961. Very Good+ ... Out Of Stock
An incredible album, and one of Strozier's best! The record is an excellent example of the maturity and modernism that was coming out of the Chicago jazz scene as it hit the early 60s – and it features Strozier's soulful alto in the company of some of the city's best players, like pianist ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Ben Webster & Joe Zawinul —
Soulmates ... LP Riverside, 1963. Very Good ... Out Of Stock
An unusual early album by Joe Zawinul – one cut at the start of his early fame with Cannonball Adderley (and years before his success in Weather Report) – but in an easygoing way that's a perfect setting for the aging Ben Webster! Joe's not funking things up the way he did with Cannon, ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
