Jiro Inagaki & His Soul Media —
Funky Stuff (pink vinyl pressing) ... LP Columbia/Lawson (Japan), 1974. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
Funky fusion from 70s Japan – a really great set that's heavy both on Fender Rhodes, and on a range of choppy reed lines on tenor, soprano sax, and flute! The set's got a warm glow that's perfect for the CTI generation – with an equally apt sense of space, one that keeps the record ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Nice Japanese pressing – with obi!)

In The Groove (white vinyl pressing) (2024 Record Store Day Release) ... LP Columbia/Lawson (Japan), 1973. New Copy (reissue)... Just Sold Out!
Jiro Inagaki's definitely in the groove here – hitting hard with a sweet electric vibe, on a set that's easily one of his funkiest albums ever! The set's got a wicked mix of jazz and funk that's right up there with the best on 70s CTI or Kudu – but maybe even leaner overall, given the ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Great Japanese pressing – with obi!)
Columbia/Lawson (Japan), 1970. New Copy (reissue)... $39.99 52.99
A killer funky group from early 70s Japan – a slightly large ensemble, but one with some really heavy drums at the bottom – plus some great use of organ and electric guitar! There's a tight brace of horns at the top – flute, tenor, trumpets, and trombone – but the rhythms ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Bob James —
All Around The Town ... LP Columbia/Tappan Zee, 1979. Near Mint- 2LP Gatefold ... Out Of Stock
A live set by Bob – packaged in a cover that has a picture of him in a Taxi, certainly designed to cash in on his fame doing the theme for that TV show! The record's actually quite nice, and is a good blend of the mellow Bob from later years and the darker Bob from earlier ones – ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Keith Jarrett —
Expectations ... CD Columbia/Legacy (France), 1972. Used ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A totally wonderful album from the young Keith Jarrett – and a set that's different than most of the pianist's other well-known modes – not his solo improvisations, not his successful trio material, and not even his more outside quartet modes of the 70s – but instead this ... read more CD

Antonio Carlos Jobim —
Stone Flower (with bonus track) ... CD Columbia/Sony (Brazil), 1970. Used ... Out Of Stock
One of Antonio Carlos Jobim's greatest records – and a perfect blend of his subtle bossa genius with the moody electric sound of CTI! Jobim plays electric and acoustic piano, guitar, and sings a bit – and Deodato handled the arrangements with a breezy brilliance that matches all the ... (Brazil, Jazz) read more CD
JJ Johnson —
Dial J J 5 ... LP Columbia, 1957. Very Good+ ... Out Of Stock
One of JJ's best from the late 50s – a tightly crackling hardbop set, recorded very much in the manner of his classic JJ Inc album! The sound here is a bit more compact overall – with some shorter tracks that really allow Johnson to display his keen sense of economy on his horn, while ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
JJ Johnson —
First Place ... LP Columbia, 1957. Very Good+ ... Just Sold Out!
JJ Johnson's always a cooker, but during the late 50s he cut some incredible records for the Columbia label – tight bop sessions that still stand as some of his best work! This album's one of them – a real smoker of a set that features Johnson's trombone as the only lead horn in a cool ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

JJ Johnson —
J Is For Jazz ... LP Columbia, Late 50s. Very Good ... $8.99
Nicely sharp sounds from the great JJ Johnson – a set that has the trombonist really honing his edge on a host of tight, short tracks – with a vibe that almost recalls his initial bop recordings on Blue Note and Prestige! The style here is a bit more sophisticated – definitely ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Mono 6 eye pressing with deep groove. NOTE – Cover has wear, aged clear tape around the edges and lots of pen notes on the back.)
Columbia, 1960. Very Good+ ... $48.99
JJ Johnson's greatest album – without a doubt! This gem of a session was recorded in 1960 in New York, with an incredibly hip sextet that includes Cedar Walton, Clifford Jordan, and Freddie Hubbard. The tracks are all long, hip, and very much in a Blue Note soul jazz mode – very ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(6 eye mono pressing with deep groove. Cover has light wear and some seam splitting – but looks nice overall. Vinyl is nice.)
