Devil May Care ... CD 
Riverside, 1961. Used ... Out Of Stock

Bobby Timmons Trio In Person ... LP Riverside, 1961. Near Mint- ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Bobby Timmons at the height of his powers – recorded live at the Village Vanguard, with a trio that includes Ron Carter on bass and Albert Heath on drums!

(Japanese pressing, with insert – SMJ 6110.)
Riverside/OJC, Early 60s. Used ... $19.99
One of Bobby Timmons' most obscure trio sessions from the early years – recorded at the tail end of the Riverside years, which is probably why the album disappeared so quickly! The set's in a similar format to some of Bobby's other records for Riverside – a trio set with either Sam ... read more CD

Sweet & Soulful Sounds ... CD Riverside/OJC, 1962. Used ... Out Of Stock
A wonderful mellow trio session from Bobby Timmons – done with a spare, relaxed approach that's a nice contrast to the recordings he was making for Prestige around the same time – but which still has the same deep, soulful approach to the piano that makes those records so great! Half a ... read more CD
(Late 90s pressing.)

Fantastic early work from pianist Bobby Timmons – a set that shows all the brilliant young genius that marked his playing at the time!

Roosevelt Wardell —
Revelation ... LP Riverside, 1960. Near Mint- ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A very earthy set of piano tracks, recorded by LA pianist Roosevelt Wardell – who was one of the ultra-hip discoveries that Cannonball Adderley brought to Riverside Records during the early 60s! Wardell's got a heck of a lot of blues in his playing, but overall he's a jazz player – ... 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

Randy Weston Trio – Unique Modern Jazz Stylings (10 inch LP) ... LP Riverside, 1955. Very Good+ ... Out Of Stock
The title certainly gets it right – as the album features some of the first unique modern work by Randy Weston on wax – important trio material that was as important as key 50s sides by Thelonious Monk or Herbie Nichols! The session has Randy working with Sam Gill on bass and Art ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Vinyl is great! Cover has a small bit of masking tape, but no splits at all – and looks very nice too.)
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 ... 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 ... read more CD
