Horace Silver —
Tokyo Blues ... LP Blue Note, 1962. Very Good+ ... Just Sold Out!
One of Horace Silver's greatest records ever – and the album that always makes us remember how many of his tunes are now etched in the memory of modern jazz!

Zoot Sims —
Down Home (70s pressing) ... LP Bethlehem, 1960. Sealed ... Just Sold Out!
A really great little set from Zoot Sims – earthy, and almost a bit more fragile than much of his other work! There's a real "down home" feel to the whole record – as Zoot blows comfortably and easily in a quartet with Dave McKenna on piano, George Tucker on bass, and Dannie ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
United Artists (Japan), 1961. Used ... $19.99
A rare gem from Zoot Sims – a slightly obscure session issued in the early 60s by United Artists! Producer Alan Douglas put together the record – and as with most of the Douglas-produced albums of the period, the set's got that little "something extra" that makes it stand ... read more CD

Two great Storyville sessions – back to back in a single set! First up is Tonite's Music Today – an early Storyville Records gem from these two budding modernists – featuring a quartet with Zoot Sims on tenor, Bob Brookmeyer on valve trombone, and Hank Jones on piano and a bit of ... read more CD

Reprise, Early 60s. Used ... $2.99
One of Sinatra's greatest records ever – pure genius all the way through! Frank's backed here by the orchestra of Count Basie, with some incredible arrangements by Quincy Jones that really have a jazzy, syncopated kick to them. The move seems to be an unintentional way of covering for Frank' ... (Vocalists, Jazz) read more CD

Savoy, Late 40s/Early 50s. Used ... $19.99
A great collection of early work by tenor giant Hal Singer – a wonderful player who recorded for Savoy during the late 40s and early 50s, and whose work was a key part of the shift from swing-based tenor work to R&B.

Adam Slawinski —
Skok (with bonus tracks) ... CD GAD (Poland), 1967. New Copy ... $16.99
A rare jazz soundtrack from the 60s Polish scene – quite different than other film scores of the period, with a vibe that feels maybe more like some of the French new wave soundtracks, or some of the jazzier material used in early 60s Italian films! The players aren't listed, but the ... read more CD
