Paul Chambers —
Go ... LP 
Vee Jay, 1959. Near Mint- ... Just Sold Out!
A rare non-Blue Note date as a leader from bassist Paul Chambers – and one of his hardest cooking dates in the studio! The session breaks out a bit from some of Chambers' more concept-based work of the time – and has him opening up strongly with an all-star group that includes ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Mid 60s black label stereo pressing. A beautiful copy!)
Bennie Green —
Swingin'est ... LP Vee Jay, Early 60s. Very Good- ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A hard set of soul jazz grooves – recorded under the leadership of the great trombonist Benny Green, and one of his few albums not for Blue Note or Prestige! The sound is very much in the Prestige hardbop mode of the late 50s – and Green heads up a group that includes Gene Ammons and ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Original maroon label pressing with deep groove. NOTE – Cover is stained along the opening and bottom 3 inches, with peeling, stuck-on paper, and and split seams. Back cover and labels have an insignia in marker.)
Eddie Harris —
Bossa Nova/
Collectables/Vee Jay, Mid 60s. Used ... Out Of Stock
2 killers from Eddie Harris' years at Vee Jay – back to back on one CD! Bossa Nova is a very tight little bossa nova set, with a mixture of soul jazz soloing, and light rhythmic accompaniment directed by Lalo Schifrin. The whole thing has a wonderful vibe – in the pocket one minute, ... read more CD
(Out of print and still sealed.)
Vee Jay, Early 60s. Near Mint- ... $4.99
Forget the title – which sounds like a bit of a gimmick – as this is a fine fine Eddie Harris album! After the success that Vee Jay had with Eddie Harris' huge hit version of "Exodus", they cut this album of Eddie playing movie themes – like "Green Dolphin ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Mono rainbow label pressing with deep groove. Cover has light wear.)
Vee Jay, Mid 60s. Near Mint- ... $19.99
One of the true hit jazz albums of the 60s, and a record that's still pretty darn incredible today! Who'd have thought that a jazz recording of the theme to the film "Exodus" could have been such a hit? It was, and the way Eddie handled it forever transformed the face of jazz. Eddie ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Rainbow label stereo pressing with deep groove and Bell Sound/Audio Matrix stamp. The back cover and label have a return address sticker, but this is a fantastic copy!)
Vee Jay, 1961. Very Good+ ... $14.99
Early genius from Eddie Higgins – a pianist who was a big thing on the Chicago scene of the 60s, but is probably best known to most folks for his revival records of the past decade or two! The younger Higgins has more of an edge than the later one – and this self-titled debut is a ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Stereo rainbow label pressing with deep groove. Vinyl has a mark that makes a short click during "Zarac, The Evil One", but the rest is great. Cover has light wear, but is nice overall.)
Vee Jay/Affinity (UK), 1968. Near Mint- ... $9.99
Not one of the original Vee Jay albums recorded by pianist Wynton Kelly – but a really sweet set that has him stretching out in a live setting recorded by Baltimore's Left Bank Jazz Society in 1968! Wynton's trio – with Ron McClure on bass and Jimmy Cobb on drums – is joined by ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Cover has light aging and a small sticker spot.)
Vee Jay, 1964. Near Mint- Gatefold ... $29.99
A wickedly soulful session from bassist Leroy Vinnegar – one that carries the same "walker" theme used in the titles of his Contemporary albums, but one that comes across with an even groovier feel overall! Vinnegar's definitely walking some great lines on his bass – a ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Original white label promo. Cover has light wear, and a promo stamp on the back – but this is a nice copy overall.)
