JBL, 1973. Near Mint- 2LP Gatefold
70s geekazoid hi-fi culture at it's finest! The folks at JBL put together this 2LP set as sort of a "bible" of a 70's understanding of hi-fi – and it's a weird mix of documentary discussion, speaker demonstration, and rock tracks by the likes of Alex Harvey and Hoyt Axton. Nutty, ...
Capitol, 1969. Very Good+
A record that's definitely after our own heart – in case you couldn't tell from the title! The set has Jackie Gleason expanding his bag a bit for the late 60s – moving from the easy sound to the "Now Sound" – with the help of some cool electric sitar, pictured on the ...
RCA, 1961. Very Good+
Vic Shoen's entry into the RCA die-cut "Stereo Action" series, with a bunch of standards done up in brass, and then augmented with stereo action strings.

ABC/Paramount, 1957. Very Good+
One of the best non-Winchester albums from the team of Ferrante & Teicher – not as crazy as some of their work, but still with some good elements of the piano trickery that made them famous. Titles include "Out Of This World", "East Of The Sun", "Over The ...

(Mono pressing in a flip-back cover, with light wear, yellowing from age, price sticker remnants, a small split in the bottom seam, and is bent at the edges.)

(Stereo pressing. Cover has light wear.)
Vanguard, Late 60s. Very Good+
(Original stereo pressing.)
World Pacific, 1966. Very Good-
A strange 60s chapter in the career of trumpeter Chet Baker – but one that we sure like a heck of a lot! These sides were recorded as an answer to the big success of Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass over at A&M Records – and for the sessions, Chet's trumpet was backed by jaunty, ...
Capitol, 1967. Sealed
An incredibly groovy album from Jackie Gleason from the mid 60 – with a sound that's a lot hipper than you'd expect from the "brass" in the title! Jackie's working here with an electric bass at the bottom of the band – providing a nice bouncing rhythm that makes the tunes ...
London, 1967. Sealed

(Mono black label pressing. Cover has light wear and a date in red pen in back.)
RCA, 1956. Very Good+
The always entertaining Sauter - Finegan Orchestra presents us with a percussion-oriented record that lapses into slightly "experimental" moments. One of the tracks, "The Minute," is a poem read by Ruth Yorke while the musicians provide some mood music. Each song gets its own ...
Vanguard, 1978. Near Mint-
(Cover has light surface wear and a small corner bump.)
United Artists, 1964. Sealed
(Mono pressing, still sealed with some remnants from a large sticker in front.)
Liberty, 1959. Very Good
A great album by Denny, with a nice approach that has sort of a drifting South Seas feel! The record is one of his last good ones for Liberty, and has lots of nice tracks like "My Isle Of Golden Dreams", "Beyond The Reef", "Flotsam & Jetsam", and "Cross ...
RCA, 1958. Very Good-
One of the most memorable Esquivel albums, and perhaps the first record that really let him hit his fantastic mix of off-beat orchestrations and spacey electronicized production! The arrangements are splendid, with echoey piano lines in the front that seem to trail off into the stratosphere. ...
United Artists, 1960. Sealed
(Mono pressing. Shrinkwrap is loose at the back seam, with a small tear.)
Warner, 1961. Sealed
(Stereo pressing, still sealed with a cutout hole and round sticker spot.)
Capitol, 1964. Very Good
Breezy bossa nova – Hollywood 60s style! The album's one of the best cut for Capitol by guitarist Laurindo Almeida – and has a sweet groovy little style that features Laurindo's lovely guitar work over some lightly dancing small combo backings that include flute, harmonica, organ, ...
