Young Rabbits
LP (Item 10867) Pacific Jazz/Blue Note, 1960s/1975 — Condition: Very Good+ 2LP Gatefold
Related searches
A great collection of early work from this razor-sharp group – the young Texas-bred lineup that features Wilton Felder on tenor and alto, Wayne Henderson on trombone, Joe Sample on piano, and Stix Hooper on drums – all grooving hard in the years before they just became The Crusaders! The vibe is great – a west coast take on territory that Prestige was exploring at the time – and the group works with guests who include Buster Williams on bass, Clare Fischer on organ, and Hubert Laws on flute. Lots of nice tracks, too – including "Congolese Sermon", "Blues Up Tight", "Big Hunk Of Funk", "Appointment In Ghana", and "Fire Water". Good notes, too, with a very long history of the band. © 1996-2022, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Very Good + (plus)
- Vinyl should be very clean, but can have less luster than near mint.
- Should still shine under a light, but one or two marks may show up when tilted.
- Can have a few small marks that may show up easily, but which do not affect play at all. Most marks of this quality will disappear when the record is tilted, and will not be felt with the back of a fingernail.
- This is the kind of record that will play "near mint", but which will have some signs of use (although not major ones).
- May have slight surface noise when played.
Additional Marks & Notes
If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.

Pacific Jazz, 1963. Very Good
The title track was most likely meant to be something of a hit for Les McCann back in his early Pacific Jazz years – and while it maybe didn't hit the heights of the charts at the time, it's still a great little cooker that leads off a tasty little set! The group here is Les' "Ltd" ... LP, Vinyl record album

New York Is Now!Blue Note, Late 60s. Near Mint- Gatefold
"New York is now" – a pretty bold statement from saxophonist Ornette Coleman, but one that definitely shows his shift in role – from a major force on the LA underground of the early 60s, to an artist who was helping pave the way for a huge wave of growth on the New York ... LP, Vinyl record album
