Erroll Garner Plays Misty

LP (Item 360387) Mercury, 1954 — Condition: Very Good+
Temporarily Out Of Stock

LP, Vinyl record album

✈
❔
Pure and simple pianistics from the great Erroll Garner – an album built around his famous composition "Misty", and featuring a number of other tunes played with equally fragile beauty. You may think you've got Garner pegged, but there's a quality to this work that really haunts us – a mixed-up, chopped-up rhythm that seems to give even familiar songs a dark, moody quality that completely transforms them. Titles include "That Old Feeling", "Where Or When", "Again", "Frantenality", "What Is This Thing Called Love", and "Exactly Like You".  © 1996-2025, Dusty Groove, Inc.
(Red label stereo pressing. Cover has light wear and aging, minor blemishes, and a small dent at the opening. Label on Side 2 is doubled and wrinkled.)

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.

Buddy Rich & Max Roach

Rich Versus Roach
Mercury, 1959. Very Good
A legendary meeting of these two jazz talents – and knowing the famous temper of Buddy Rich, this probably really was a battle of the drummers! Kidding aside, though, the set's a very unusual one for Buddy – as the group here features players normally associated with Max Roach – ... LP, Vinyl record album

Jug Sessions
Mercury, Late 40s. Near Mint- 2LP Gatefold
Early work from Gene Ammons – his obscure late 40s recordings for Mercury Records – mostly from the 78rpm years!

Bob James

Bold Conceptions
Mercury, 1962. Very Good+
Early early work by Bob James – recorded years before his classic 70s sides on electric piano, and in a brightly modern mode that recalls the spirit of Steve Kuhn and Paul Bley at the time! The set's a trio session – produced by Quincy Jones, who'd heard the young James and rushed him ... LP, Vinyl record album
Mercury, Late 50s. Very Good+
A really weird one from Buddy – a unique session that has him singing instead of drumming! And although Buddy had a reputation for being a pretty fierce person in real life, on record his voice is surprisingly gentle and mellow – not the bruisy, belting Buddy Greco-esque style you'd ...

Max Roach Plus Four

Moon Faced & Starry Eyed
Mercury, 1959. Sealed
Drummer Max Roach works here with one of our favorite groups – his hip lineup that features the fantastic Turrentine brothers – tenorist Stanley, before his famous 60s run on Blue Note – and his brother Tommy, a hell of a trumpeter, and one who really gets to shine in this setting! ... LP, Vinyl record album

Buddy Rich

Richcraft (Trip)
Mercury/Trip, 1959. Near Mint-
Tighter than usual for Buddy Rich at Verve – but still a great little set, thanks to some soulfully swinging arrangements from Ernie Wilkins – who was really at the top of his game at this point in his career! The lineup is filled with great players – including Phil Woods, Harry ... LP, Vinyl record album
EmArcy/Mercury, 1958. Very Good+
A key album in the development of the flute in jazz – issued under the Swingin Shepherds name to cash in on the fame of that popular hit of the time!

Lennie Tristano

New York Improvisations
Elektra, 1955/1956. Near Mint-
80s release of some rare sessions cut at Tristano's private Manhattan studio in the mid 50s, featuring spare trio tracks with Peter Ind on bass and Tom Weyburn on drums. The album is an essential chapter in Tristano's under-recorded career, and the tracks are a delight all the way through. Titles ... LP, Vinyl record album
