Sunnyside, 2018. New Copy ... $15.99 16.99
Marvelous work from Luciana Souza – a very spare set that has the vocalist just working with Chico Pinheiro on guitar and Scott Colley on bass – which makes for a moody approach that really opens up her voice!

Mutable Music, 1984. Used 2 CDs ... $9.99
New music for woodwinds and voice by Space – a trio featuring Roscoe Mitchell and Gerald Oshita on horns, and Thomas Buckner on voice. Buckner's got a weird, other-worldly style of singing that goes back to early dadaist experiments with voice – using his vocals in an instrumental ... read more CD

Audioguido (UK), 2018. New Copy ... Just Sold Out!
A really beautiful little album – open and free at times, but also relatively rich in sound – almost in the territory of Sonny Rollins at the start of the 60s, but with a slightly more modern approach! This is maybe the first we've ever heard of alto saxophonist Guido Spannocchi ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Prestige, 1970. Very Good- ... $24.99
A killer – one of the best from Prestige during the runaway classic years of the early 70s!

Sneak Preview ... LP Prestige, 1971. Very Good+ ... $19.99
Forget the preview, because Leon Spencer is already the main attraction on this key early album for Prestige!

Be! (Germany), 1972. New Copy ... $16.99
A jazz message from Poland, and one that's served up loud and proud, too – thanks to tremendous work from trumpeter Tomasz Stanko and a very sharp-edged group! The music here has that open flow that some of the more fusion-based players were exploring in Poland at the time – but the ... read more CD
Polskie Nagrania (Poland), 1982. New Copy (reissue)... $28.99
A lost chapter in the career of Polish trumpeter Tomasz Stanko – better known for his recent recordings on ECM, and his classic 60s work with Komeda – but sounding surprisingly great here as well!

Elektra/Wounded Bird, 1973. Used ... $5.99
Space jazz for the 70s – a classic batch of synthesizer fusion from keyboardist Robert Mason, whose groove here is totally great! The album's got rhythms that are rooted in rock, but executed in jazz – making for a chunky, funky sound that really helps this album cross over nicely! ... read more CD

Northern Spy, 2018. New Copy ... $12.99 13.99

Discomate (Japan), 1977. Near Mint- ... $16.99
An obscure group name, but a nice little set – produced for a Japanese label by Toshiko Akiyoshi, in a mode that's similar to some of the West Coast sessions from the late 70s by the Japanese Atlas label.

Sharp Nine, 2010. Used ... $8.99

The most spiritual set we've heard so far from reedman Robert Stillman – a set hat's filled with slow-building tunes that provide a fantastic display for his saxophone solos!

Muse, 1974. Used ... $8.99
An excellent bop side that finds Stitt and his sidemen still at the top of their game, despite the fact that the date was rather late in many of their careers. While others were exploring electric jazz, Stitt, Joe Newman, Duke Jordan, Sam Jones and Roy Brooks, lay out six sides of crisp hard bop: ... read more CD

Cobblestone, 1972. Very Good+ ... $6.99

Verve, 1957. Very Good ... $43.99
Probably the most classic of Stitt's sides for Verve – and certainly the one that gets rated time and time again by jazz collectors.

Beautiful late 50s work from Stitt – filled with subtle complex solos, and a rich confident tone that was missing from earlier records!

Roost, Early 60s. Very Good ... $24.99
Fantastic (and hard to find) session that has Stitt playing the sort of confident, mature, laidback grooves that characterize the bulk of his work from this time for Verve and Roost (most of which has been out of print for years!) His tone is razor-sharp, and he plays with a style that's way ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Heavy blue label Royal Roost pressing. Cover has some marker and pen on the back.)
Verve, 1959. Very Good+ ... $28.99
Classic Sonny Stitt for Verve – one of those masterful albums he cut for the label in the 50s – all in a format that's misleadingly simple on paper, but surprisingly complex in execution!

Roost, Late 50s. Very Good ... $22.99
Magical Stitt work on Roost – an album of marked understatement, from the simple title, standard cover, and lack of session details on the back – all of which might make you think "oh yeah, heard this one before." But one drop of the needle opens the album up immediately ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Verve, 1959. Very Good- ... $33.99
Sonny Stitt makes Oscar Peterson sit up and groove!

Verve (Japan), 1959. New Copy ... $13.99

Roost, Mid 50s. Very Good- ... $14.99
Beautiful Roost material from Sonny Stitt – solid, mature, and extremely well-placed lines on the alto sax – all caught at a level that's higher than most of his contemporaries were dising out at the time!

Impulse, 1963. Very Good Gatefold ... $9.99
Head to head blowing from Sonny Sitt and Paul Gonsalves – just the kind of twin-horn performance that Stitt was famous for in his live battle days, and one that also reminds us that Gonsalves can be a very loose swinger when he wants to be!

Prestige, 1962. Very Good ... $11.99
Stitt & McDuff in a very tasty set of organ/tenor grooves, played with that style that Prestige was finally beginning to perfect in the early 60s, as it let these organ combos shake off their 50's R&B sound, and start to hit a straighter jazz groove.

The soprano sax is used here in that highly angular way that was common on the European scene of the time ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Beatball (Korea), 2018. New Copy 2LP Gatefold ... $35.99
An album that definitely lives up to its title – even though, because the barriers of language, we can't entirely tell you what the ritual might be! But we can say that the whole thing is stretched out over the course of four sides of the double-length set – and has an eerie, ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

ABC, 1956. Very Good+ ... $6.99
The set features a tight brace of three trumpets in the lead, alongside trombone, alto, tenor, and baritone – almost an extension of the sounds crafted at the tail end of the swing years, but with some nice modernist inflections too – somewhere in a space between Woody Herman and Stan ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Venus (Japan), 2018. New Copy ... $29.99
There's a great sense of warmth to this album from The Super Trio – one that really seems to come from the bass work of Ron Carter, which is so upfront and present in the recording, it's got us remembering all over again why we love his music so much! Massimo Farao is on piano, and balances ... read more CD
Capitol, 1973. Used ... $6.99
A completely fresh take on the Charlie Parker aesthetic of the bop generation – updated for the 70s, but in ways that are still pretty classic overall! The group's a large one, but plays with a tightness that goes way past their gimmicky name – thanks to players who include Med Flory ... read more CD

Island, 1972. Near Mint- ... $29.99
One of the most beautifully melodic albums ever from British reedman John Surman – a session that's almost cut in the same mode as Lol Coxhill's early 70s sides for Virgin, with Surman soloing strongly in the lead on a variety of saxes, while sparer sounds and notes echo out in the background! ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
