Natural Seven
LP (Item 17585) RCA, Late 50s — Condition: Very Good+
Tight ensemble work from tenorist Al Cohn – heard here when he was at the height of his young powers as both a soloist and arranger! The rest of the group features very well-matched players – including Joe Newman on trumpet, Frank Rehack on trombone, Nat Pierce on piano, and Freddie Greene on guitar – and titles include "The Natural Thing To Do", "AC Meets Osie", "Baby Please", "Pick A Dilly", and "Count Me In". © 1996-2025, 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.
Condition Notes
If something is relevant, we try to describe it in the notes — especially if it is release or pressing details, or 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, or strictly cosmetic flaws.

Vintage TenorRCA (Japan), 1978. Near Mint- Gatefold
The strong tenor work of Lew Tabackin is featured with the Japanese big band of Toshiyuki Miayama and His New Herd – a mostly acoustic outfit that has a complicated sound that's not unlike some of the big band aggregations that Tabackin has led with wife Toshiko Akioshi, but perhaps a bit ...

Earl Hines
Up To Date With Earl HinesRCA, 1965. Very Good+
One of the many nice sides that Hines made during the 60s, when he was being rediscovered by the labels, and touted as a traditionalist who was still working to expand his style. The group's here are nice and small, and Hines trio is augmented by either Budd Johnson or Ray Nance on most tracks. ... LP, Vinyl record album

Arguably one of the greatest albums that Shorty Rogers ever cut – and one of the few to feature him in a small group setting!
