A great singer and a great trio – a unique Verve outing that has vocalist Anita O'Day joining forces with the Three Sounds combo of pianist Gene Harris!

Denon (Japan), 1987. Used ... $14.99
A brilliant album from Japanese alto saxophonist Akira Ohmori – one that definitely lives up to the "wood" spirit promised in the title, thanks to an earthy feel from the rhythm section, which also includes some overlooked work by Ray Bryant on piano! Bryant really helps ground the ... read more CD

Venus (Japan), 2001. Used ... $13.99
There's no end to our love affair with this great group – one of the most rock-solid lineups of the past decade or so, thanks to tight work from some players who clearly love working with each other! The mighty Eric Alexander is in the frontline on tenor sax – as are Jim Rotondi on ... read more CD

Black Fire, 1976. New Copy (reissue)... $11.99
A fantastic record from one of the greatest underground jazz groups of the 70s!

Somethin Else/Blue Note (Japan), 1993. New Copy ... $9.99
The title definitely gets it right – as the set's an exclamatory surprise from pianist Junko Onishi – just the right sort of set to launch a long career in music! Many of the tunes are originals, played with a fierce finish that comes through right away – a heavier left hand than ... read more CD

Uuquipleu, 2019. New Copy 2CD ... $9.99
A really cool project from drummer Leonard King – a reformed version of his Oopada combo from Detroit – expanded here with a bit of horns, which gives the group a nicely righteous vibe! The use of organ is still at the core of the group – but the lineup also features trumpet from ... read more CD
Lion, 1972/1975. New Copy ... $6.99
Wicked funky fusion from Opa – with loads of great electric moments! Although originally from Uruguay, Opa are best known for their Brazilian-tinged albums on Fantasy during the mid 70s, but this album presents the group in the years before that time – working in a style that's rougher ... read more CD
Urban, 1984. Very Good+ Gatefold ... $6.99

Vanguard/Wounded Bird, 1970. New Copy ... $10.99 14.99
The fantastic first outing of Oregon as a quartet – recorded right after the group's initial work with the Paul Winter Consort – but not released until a decade after the material was first put down to tape! Oregon had already reached greater fame by the time of the record's issue in ... read more CD
Vanguard/Wounded Bird, 1978. New Copy ... $10.99 14.99
The title's a reference to the special presence of Polish violinist Zbigniew Siefert, who joins Oregon for the set – and it's also the name of the side-long track on the first half of the record – a surprisingly beautiful long improvisation by the entire group! Given the way that ... read more CD
Vanguard/Wounded Bird, 1976. New Copy ... $10.99 14.99
Drummer Elvin Jones joins the groundbreaking Oregon trio – and rather than making the set a record that's dominated by the star, Elvin nicely finds the right sort of way to really mix his talents with the group! Jones in the 70s could be pretty dynamic as a leader – but here, he's ... read more CD
Enja (Germany), 2016. Used ... $2.99
The organ exploding here isn't just the familiar Hammond B-3 you'll hear on other records – and instead is a range of variations on the instrument – as the keyboards run from many different variations from Hammond, Wurlitzer, Korg, Roland, Hohner, and even Fender Rhodes – driven ... read more CD

The rarest of Anthony Ortega's albums for the Revelation label – and one of the freest as well!

RGE/Vampi Soul (Spain), 1966. New Copy (reissue)... $24.99
A sweet bossa combo from 60s Brazil – a jazzy little group that features some very early work on piano and arrangements from Francis Hime – whose sense of tone and color is already shining through, even at a relatively young age!

Resilience, 2019. New Copy ... $11.99 12.99

Warner (Japan), 1959. Used ... $3.99
Marty Paich takes on a host of Broadway tunes from the 50s – but as always with his best work, the result is something quite far from its roots – an amazing batch of jazzy instrumentals that owes very little to the original conception of the tunes! Paich's got an incredible ear for ... read more CD

Jazz Band Ball ... LP Mode, 1957. Very Good- ... $24.99
Sure, the album's got a hokey title – but it's a wonderful little session that ranks as one of the most striking in the Mode Records catalog! The lineup is a very unusual one – with Stu Williamson and Bob Enevoldsen on valve trombone, paired with Jack Sheldon and Don Fagerquist on ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Tampa, 1956. Near Mint- ... $6.99
A fantastic Art Pepper album – from his best period!

The genius of Eddie Palmieri never seems to dim at all as the years go on – and, if anything, the genius only seems to flower even more – finding new ways of expression that maybe even blow away some of Eddie's classic work from the 60s and 70s!

Cobra Rose (Korea), 1978. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... $29.99
One of the only albums of jazz we've seen from the Korean scene of the 70s – and a really special little record that aims to echo some of the most spiritual modes from the US scene of the time!

Saravah/Souffle Continu (France), 1969. New Copy (pic cover, reissue)... $11.99

Verve, Early 50s. Very Good ... $11.99
The genius of Bird and strings is hard to describe – an edgey aproach that really goes far past most other "jazz with strings" projects, not a ballad-driven one, but a tensely strained one that brings out some of Parker's best soloing, almost in a moody soundtrack-type way.
