Muhal Richard Abrams —
Afrisong ... LP Why Not (Japan), 1975. Near Mint- ... Just Sold Out!
One of the most beautiful albums ever recorded by this legendary AACM pianist! The album was a rare Japanese-only session from 1975, but recorded in Chicago – and it features Muhal playing solo – in beautifully warm spiritual tones that are very different from his playing on many other ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Japanese pressing – with insert – in great shape!)
Capitol, 1967. Very Good+ ... $24.99
A stone classic from Cannonball Adderley – and a pivotal set that has him continuing the live recording setting of some of his best 60s albums, while also stretching forward to some of the more inventive ideas of the latter part of the decade! David Axelrod produced, and the album's ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Stereo rainbow label pressing. Cover has a name in marker.)
Capitol, Late 60s. Very Good+ ... $16.99
A great lost chapter in the Cannonball/David Axelrod story! The record features Cannon's classic quintet performing some longer, more serious works with orchestral backing – and the sound is vaguely similar to some of Axelrod's "high concept" work for Capitol. The record features ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Green label pressing. Cover has light wear.)
Cannonball Adderley —
Cannonball's Sharpshooters ... LP Mercury, 1958. Very Good- ... $9.99
A set that's right on target, right from the start – and one that has the young Cannonball Adderley really coming into his groove! The set's a lot more soul jazz-oriented than some of Cannon's records from a few years before – played by a rock-solid group that includes brother Nat ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Blue label stereo pressing with deep groove. NOTE – Vinyl has a mark that clicks on most of Side A.)
Cannonball Adderley —
Domination ... LP Capitol, 1965. Very Good ... Just Sold Out!
A key meeting of Cannonball Adderley and David Axelrod – and one of the pair's first larger collaborations together! The album features Cannonball solos over larger backings by Oliver Nelson – with some occasional help from brother Nat Adderley – all produced with that dark ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Stereo rainbow label pressing. Cover has a partially split bottom seam.)
Little David, 1976. Sealed ... $11.99
A really brilliant little record from Nat Adderley – one that shows him shaking off the groove gotten from brother Cannonball, and finding some great space all on his own! The setting here is tight and funky – at a level that's a bit more arranged than a small combo soul jazz session, ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Original pressing, sealed – but shrinkwrap is open along the spine.)

Jamey Aebersold —
Nothin' But Blues ... LP JA Records, Early 70s. Very Good+ ... $4.99
One of those cool little albums of bass-heavy jazz tracks, designed as instructional records, but actually nice spare jazz funk albums that are great for sample mining!

Toshiko Akiyoshi —
Finesse ... LP Concord, 1978. Near Mint- ... $9.99
A wonderfully intimate set from pianist Toshiko Akiyoshi – quite different than her bigger band records of the 70s, but equally great in its own way! The album's a great throwback to the earliest days of Akiyoshi on record – as it has the pianist really opening up in a trio setting, ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Inner City, 1979. Near Mint- ... $14.99
Toshiko Akiyoshi plays with two different sets of musicians on this trio side.

RCA, 1974. Near Mint- ... $14.99
A 70s classic from the team of Toshiko Akioshi and Lew Tabackin – a duo who did for the jazz ensemble mode in their generation what Kenny Clarke and Francy Boland did in the 60s!

RCA, 1956. Near Mint- ... $7.99
Hard-swinging big band material – with a heavy emphasis on drums! The album is a suite of six tracks – all written by either Manny Albam or Ernie Wilkins, both of whom arrange the groups on the set – really letting them open up nicely on the album's longish tracks. Manny and ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Columbia, Early 60s. Near Mint- ... $24.99
One of Mose's most sophisticated album, and one that has him going way past his usual "folksy jazzy" style, into a realm that touches on Monk-like modernism.

On his preceding Muse LP, Altschul had been joined by some of his cohorts in Circle – but here only bassist Dave Holland remains, ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Prestige, 1960s. Near Mint- ... $7.99
While it's tough to think of a jazz player having "hits" – given the low sales of jazz albums, even in the 60s – it's still the case that Ammons' sound was so strong, and so soulful, he had plenty of fans in the crossover market for some of his bigger recordings. The album ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Gene Ammons & James Moody —
Chicago Concert ... LP Prestige, 1971. Very Good ... $4.99
Late great work from Ammons – an album done at the time of his funk sides for Prestige, but recorded in the style of his earlier years in Chicago!

Prestige, 1976. Very Good+ ... $9.99
1973 recording that would become the last that Jug and Stitt did before Jug's untimely death in the mid 70's.

Trio (Japan), 1978. Near Mint- ... $34.99
A fantastic record from jazz harmonica player Donald Bailey – maybe one of the few we've ever seen with his name in the lead, and a set that shows that he can easily rival some of the greats on his instrument at the time!

Chet Baker —
Chet Baker Sextet & Quartet ... LP Music (Italy), 1960. Sealed ... Just Sold Out!
