Joanne Brackeen —
Six Ate ... CD 
Choice (UK), 1975. Used ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Great work from that point in the 70s when pianist Joanne Brackeen was really taking off – working in bold, modern tones that really set her apart from most of her generation – further underscoring her unique role in jazz! Brackeen's freely creative on the keys – playing in ways ... read more CD
(1996 CD pressing.)
Joanne Brackeen —
Snooze ... LP 
Choice, 1975. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
Dreamy open-ended tracks from pianist Joanne Brackeen – with a spiritual sound that almost reminds us of Alice Coltrane's best work on Impulse – and which represents a very different side of Brackeen's music than her better-known work with Stan Getz during the same time! Of course, the ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Cover has a cut corner and a half split top seam.)

Snooze (with bonus track) ... CD Choice/Ultra Vybe (Japan), 1975. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
Dreamy open-ended tracks from pianist Joanne Brackeen – with a spiritual sound that almost reminds us of Alice Coltrane's best work on Impulse – and which represents a very different side of Brackeen's music than her better-known work with Stan Getz during the same time! Of course, the ... read more CD
Choice/Ultra Vybe (Japan), 1977. New Copy ... $12.99 16.99
Pretty strong work from Joanne Brackeen – a great 70s trio set, with either Cecil McBee or Clint Houston on bass, and Billy Hart on drums – plus some guest tenor work by Michael Brecker, who's definitely at the sharper side of his spectrum! Brecker's tone here is raw and adventurous ... read more CD
Buddy Defranco featuring Gordie Fleming —
Waterbed ... LP Choice, 1978. Very Good+ ... Out Of Stock
A really cool 70s album from reedman Buddy DeFranco – and one that resonates strongly with some of his groovy 60s work with Gumina! As with those records, this one features both clarinet and accordion – the former by Buddy, the latter by Gordie Fleming – used here in a match that' ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Cover has top seam split, light wear & aging.)
Jimmy Giuffre —
River Chant ... LP Choice, 1975. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
One of the hippest, most spiritual sessions ever recorded from reedman Jimmy Giuffre – a set that echoes some of his earlier experiments from the 50s and 60s, but which has a very different mode of expression overall! Part of the quality of the record comes from the organic, often modal work ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Cover has some ring and edge wear.)
Al Haig & Jimmy Raney —
Strings Attached (with bonus tracks) ... CD Choice/Ultra Vybe (Japan), 1975. New Copy ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A brilliant mid 70s set headlined by pianist Al Haig & guitarist Jimmy Raney – essentially a reunion of bandmates from the early 50s Stan Getz Quintet – beautifully done and in a timelessly appealing mode! What's great about this is that doesn't feel in the least a hokey revisit ... read more CD
Roland Hanna —
Sir Elf (with bonus tracks) ... CD Choice/Solid (Japan), 1973. New Copy ... Just Sold Out!
A really beautiful solo album from pianist Roland Hanna – a set with a recording quality that's maybe a bit more "real world" than the smoother studio settings of other records of this nature – something that seems to bring out this open, honest quality in Hanna's piano – ... read more CD
Roland Hanna with George Mraz —
Sir Elf Plus 1 ... CD Choice/Absord (Japan), 1977. Used ... Out Of Stock
A really great setting for pianist Roland Hanna – a player who always sparkles in a solo setting, but works here with just a bit of bass on the side! The record features duets between Hanna's piano and the bass of George Mraz – but most tracks feature Roland really leading things off, ... read more CD
(2007 Japanese pressing – still sealed with obi!)
Stan Kenton —
One Night Stand – The Innovations Orchestra, Live At The Hollywood Palladium ... CD Choice, 1951. Used ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Recorded in March 1951 with band that features Maynard Ferguson, Art Pepper, Shorty Rogers, Bud Shank, and Shelly Manne. CD
Irene Kral —
Where Is Love? ... LP Choice, 1975. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
Mid 70s magic from vocalist Irene Kral – one of a handful of albums that really had Kral setting herself apart from most other jazz vocal contemporaries! The approach here is very simple – just Irene's voice and piano backing from Alan Broadbent – but a hell of a lot goes on in ... (Vocalists, Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Cover has light wear.)
Blue Mitchell —
Stablemates ... CD Choice (UK), 1977. Used ... Out Of Stock
Brilliant hardbop work from Blue Mitchell – a rare set recorded at a time when Blue was mostly working in an electric mode for other labels, but is caught here in a sharp-edged acoustic date that really takes us back to his sound in the 60s! The sound is wonderfully tight – rhythm work ... read more CD
Zoot Sims —
Getting Sentimental ... CD Choice (UK), 1975. Used ... Out Of Stock
Zoot may be getting sentimental here, but he's not getting hokey – as Getting Sentimental is a solid little mid 70s set from the tenor & soprano sax player – doing his thing in a looser, laidback quartet! The live and direct sound is no accident, as the set was recorded in a very ... read more CD
Zoot Sims —
Zoot Sims' Party ... LP Choice, 1974. Very Good+ ... Out Of Stock
Not as much of a party as you might expect from the title, but quite a lively little album – and possibly one of Zoot's best from the 70s! There's a tightly fluid feel to this record that we really love a lot – not one that's electric or slick, but served up by a great backing trio ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Choice/Nadja (Japan), 1974. Near Mint- ... $14.99
One of the greatest jazz albums ever recorded by the legendary Toots Thielemans – a small combo session that stands in great contrast to much of the bigger studio work he was doing in the 70s! Despite the title, the record's a studio one and not a concert – but it's got a relaxed ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
