Dizzy and strings – a surprisingly great combination! Although it was Charlie Parker who first made famous the modernist "jazz with strings" approach, Dizzy does wonderfully here in the format – working in similar fashion with edgey backing from the "Operatic String Orchestra" in sessions recorded in Paris in the early 50s! The material was originally only issued as a number of separate 78rpm singles, but is packaged here as a 10" LP for the US market. Titles include "My Old Flame", "The Man I Love", and "Night & Day". 7-inch, Vinyl record
(Sleeve has split seams, a name in pen, and light surface wear.)
With Charlie Parker and Willie Smith on alto; Charlie Ventura and Lester Young on tenor; Al Killian, Dizzy Gillespie, and Howard McGhee on trumpet; Arnold Ross and Mel Powell on piano, Billy Hadnott on bass, and Lee Young on drum. 7-inch, Vinyl record
(Sleeve has some ring and edge wear, minor surface wrinkles, smal split in the top seam, and is bumped at the bottom right corner.)
Scarce jukebox edition of the sometimes-overlooked classic from the Rolling Stones – with "Star Star", "Hide Your Love", "Can You Hear The Music", and "100 Years Ago". 7-inch, Vinyl record
(Includes a full sheet of jukebox tabs. Labels have some aging. Cover is in great shape!)
A delightful little jukebox EP from 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's slightly failing pipes – but it also picks up on a seminal beat change in 60s pop, the same sort of gentle snapping groove that you'd find in the best work by Bacharach, a shift that really infuses Frank's vocals with a whole new sound, one that shows that he's ready to keep on growing and growing after being stuck in a Nelson Riddle rut. All tracks are superb – hip 60s pop and showtunes, like "Fly Me To the Moon", "More", "The Good Life", and "I Wanna Be Around". 7-inch, Vinyl record
(Cover has half split top & bottom seams, light surface wear & aging.)
Includes "Peggy Sue", "Lion Sleeps Tonight", "Willy And The Hand Jive", "Everyday", "Rag Doll", and "Ain't Nuthin' But A House Party". 7-inch, Vinyl record
(Includes unused sheet of jukebox tags & mini cover inserts.)
An overlooked gem from the Verve bossa years – a session that features the sweet tenor sax work of Stan Getz, alongside some swinging bossa arrangements from the great Gary McFarland! Given the strength of Gary's own work for Verve at the time, it's no surprise that he's a perfect accompanist for Getz on the session – working with just the right amount of space to let Stan stand out from the pack, and really creating a great blend of Brazilian rhythms and some of the modder 60s styles at Verve. Gary contributed a number of originals to the session too – and the three titles are "Manlancolico", "Balanco No Samba", and "Manha De Carnival". 7-inch, Vinyl record
Of all of Ray's post-Fania albums in the 70's, this is from probably the most straight Latin. Good thing, too, because the set's a very live performance, and it's filled with the kind of vibrant energy that was carrying the New York Latin scene on waves of dynamism and creativity during the time. The tracks on this jukebox ep are "Night Flowers (Flores De Noche)", "Slo Flo", "Vaya", and "Ahora Si Que Vamo A Gozar". 7-inch, Vinyl record
A wonderful lost gem from Ella Fitzgerald – very much in the mellow mood hinted at in the title, with only the piano of Ellis Larkins to back her up! The sound is incredible – and even very different than any of the work she recorded at Verve – with a moody, evocative quality that seems to offer up a whole different side of Ella than we'd ever known. Larkins is always perfect in such a setting – able to be richly emotive on the keys without interfering with the singer at all – and honestly, we're stunned to hear how much Ella makes with the empty space left on the set, and wish we'd had more of a chance to hear her in this format. Titles include "My Heart Belongs To Daddy", "You Leave Me Breathless", "Baby, What Else Can I Do", and "Nice Work If You Can Get It". 7-inch, Vinyl record
With Jimmy Giuffre on tenor, Shorty Rogers on trumpet, and Milt Bernhart on trombone. 7-inch, Vinyl record

L'Homme Presse ... 7-inch Polydor (France), 1977. Near Mint- (pic cover)...
$9.99
A rare EP for the film L'Homme Presse – music that has this open, floating sort of vibe – light strings, and isolated piano lines – almost at a level that's like some of our favorite French composers from the early 70s. There's some lightly classical touches, but the sound is quite contemporary overall – with a moody vibe that reminds us of some of the darker moments from Francis Lai. 7-inch, Vinyl record
