Impulse, 1973. Very Good ... $4.99
We love this record! Although Gato Barbieri has put out a few snoozers in his career, this amazing first chapter of his Latin venture for Impulse is an incredible record throughout – one of the greatest Impulse sessions of the 70s! Gato returns to his native Argentina for the session – ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Gato Barbieri —
Chapter Two – Hasta Siempre ... LP Impulse, 1973. Used Gatefold ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Chapter 2 of Gato's Latin American trilogy – and like the first, a set of tracks that features Gato's firey sax work engaging a complex series of Latin rhythms. Some of the tracks on the record feature Brazilian influences – from players like Helio Delmiro and Novelli – and one ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Impulse, 1963. Very Good+ ... $11.99
Art Blakey, without any Jazz Messengers – but still coming through loud and clear, thanks to help from a unique group that features Sonny Stitt on tenor, McCoy Tyner on piano, and Art Davis on bass! The album's still got all the hardbop charm of Blakey's best Blue Note dates, but also feels ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(80s pressing in an alternate non-gatefold cover.)
Impulse, 1969. Very Good Gatefold ... $13.99
A record that's a lot more jazz than you'd guess from the title – a seminal set from the mighty Mel Brown! The "blues" here are hardly the familiar kind – and instead, the album really stresses the more soul-based sound of Mel Brown's work – thanks to some very groovy ...

Benny Carter —
Additions To Further Definitions ... LP Impulse, 1966. Near Mint- Gatefold ... $29.99
A great example of the cool, classy swing that Benny Carter hit in the 1960s – a groove that was more regularly brought to backings for standout singers of the time, but which also works beautifully here in an instrumental mode! Carter's alto sax is at the top of the charts, but the album's ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Orange and black label stereo pressing – with Van Gelder stamp.)
Impulse, 1961. Very Good+ ... $4.99
A key later album from alto saxophonist Benny Carter – one that has him at the helm of a largeish group, but playing with a nicely focused sort of groove! In addition to Benny's alto, the record also features tenor sax from Charlie Rouse and Coleman Hawkins, plus one more alto from Phil ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Ray Charles —
Genius + Soul = Jazz ... LP Impulse, 1960. Used Gatefold ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A wonderful chapter in the career of Ray Charles – and a key album in helping raise his respect level a notch or two in the early 60s! We might argue with the mathematics in the title – or at least joke that Ray was using equations as titles years before Anthony Braxton – but you ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Mono orange & black label pressing with RVG stamp. Cover has wear & splitting.)
Ornette Coleman —
Crisis ... LP Impulse, 1969. Near Mint- Gatefold ... $64.99
A record that bursts out with a sound that definitely lives up to its striking title – as Ornette Coleman explores the new frontiers of experimental jazz with one of his great groups from the end of the 60s! The album's got the intensity of the best ESP sessions of the period, but also shows ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Alice Coltrane —
Journey In Satchidananda ... LP Impulse, 1971. Used Gatefold ... Just Sold Out!
Arguably the most classic Alice Coltrane album on Impulse – and a strong group effort that features some great work from Pharoah Sanders!

Lord Of Lords ... LP Impulse, 1972. Used Gatefold ... Out Of Stock
Beautifully high concept work from Alice Coltrane – the kind of record you'd use to announce the arrival of a new king – or lord, for that matter!

Impulse, 1962. Near Mint- Gatefold ... $24.99
A perennial favorite in the John Coltrane catalog – a beautiful set of standards, handled in a warm laidback style – one that shows that Trane's groundbreaking group with Jimmy Garrison on bass, Elvin Jones on drums, and McCoy Tyner on piano could still express themselves with even more ...

(Green label ABC pressing in a gatefold cover – with light wear.)
Impulse, 1962. Good Gatefold ... $29.99
One of John Coltrane's best early albums for Impulse – a warm set of modally grooving tracks, and one that picks up where My Favorite Things left off!

Soaring and soulful work from the legendary John Coltrane – a tremendous live set that's one of his best early 60s albums!

John Coltrane —
Crescent ... LP Impulse, 1964. Used Gatefold ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Sharp-edged John Coltrane at his best – a record that we'd rank right up there with Love Supreme, and which is a key transition point in Coltrane's musical ideas! There's a very strong edge to Coltrane's tone here – and even on the mellower ballads, he plays with a sound not always ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Interstellar Space ... LP Impulse, 1967/1974. Used Gatefold ... Out Of Stock
One of the greatest recordings ever made by John Coltrane in his late years – a spare set of duets with drummer Rashied Ali, recorded in 1967, but never issued until after his death!

John Coltrane & Johnny Hartman —
John Coltrane & Johnny Hartman ... LP Impulse, 1963. Used ... Out Of Stock
A landmark album of vocal jazz – and one of the few sessions that John Coltrane ever cut with a singer! In a way, the album's more Hartman's than it is Coltrane's – given that Johnny's warm, mellow style of singing isn't as free and open as Trane at his most adventurous – but at ...

John Coltrane/Impulse, 1965. Used Gatefold ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
An essential piece of 60's avant garde jazz that often gets overlooked because the album is split between two different leaders – but with John Coltrane and Archie Shepp at the helm, what leaders they be!

Duke Ellington & John Coltrane ... LP Impulse, 1962. Used Gatefold ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A seminal meeting of the old and new generations of jazz in the 60s – put together in perfect Impulse fashion! At some level, this is actually an early 60s John Coltrane Quartet album – with Duke Ellington sitting in for McCoy Tyner on piano, as that's the lineup on about half of the ...

Impulse, 1961. Very Good ... $7.99

Into The Hot ... LP Impulse, 1961. Near Mint- Gatefold ... $29.99

Impulse, 1963. Very Good+ ... $12.99
Despite the relative fame and overblown quality of the blockbuster film Cleopatra, the score of the movie actually spurred on some very groovy jazz LPs during the early 60's – and this is one of them.

One of the most beautiful albums that Charlie Haden ever recorded – and if he only ever appeared on one record in his life, we'd still love him tremendously for this one!

Impulse, 1977. Very Good+ ... $0.99
A well-blown set from alto saxophonist John Handy – recorded with larger arrangements at a time when Impulse Records was trying to match the sounds of CTI, but done in a way that still holds onto all the sharp soul of Handy's earlier years!

Ahmad Jamal —
Freeflight ... LP Impulse, 1972. Used ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Brilliant work by Jamal – and one of his first albums to feature electric piano!

One of Sam Rivers' most striking albums for Impulse, a record that has him leading a fairly large group – working in an "orchestral context", as the notes on the cover say, but not really a jazz orchestra – more of a freewheeling avant ensemble, in the tradition of work by ...

A different record for Rivers – especially when you compare it to the rest of his early 70s output!
