Capitol Jazz Classics Vol 13 – Strictly Bebop
LP (Item 47828) Capitol, 1949 — Condition: Very Good+
Related searches
A collection of early bop singles cut for Capitol – one that includes some excellent rare material, including fantastic early work by Babs Gonzales, and some of Sonny Rollins' first work on record! Babs clocks in with some great little vocal numbers that include – "Real Crazy", "Prelude To A Nightmare", "Professor Bop", and "Capitolizing" – all gems that rank with his best offbeat vocal tunes of later years. Dizzy's in a similar format on some of his tunes – titles that include "Coast To Coast", "You Stole My Wife You Horsethief", "Say When", and "Oo La La" – and Tadd Dameron finishes up the album with some great tracks that include "Sid's Delight", "Casbah", "John's Delight", and "Heaven's Doors Are Open Wide". © 1996-2024, 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.

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.

Coast ConcertCapitol, 1955. Sealed
A classic set from brassman Bobby Hackett – the kind of set that really helped him reach a big new audience in the postwar years!

Ellington 55Capitol, 1955. Very Good
One of Duke's most popular albums of the 50s – but we won't hold that against him!

Classics In Jazz (10 inch LP)Capitol, Late 40s/Early 50s. Very Good-
Basically a 10" issue of a slightly abbreviated version of The Birth of The Cool, legendary work from Davis that needs virtually no introduction from us – large group sessions that virtually define the "cool" in cool jazz!

Cannonball Adderley Quintet & Orchestra – Experience In E/Capitol, Late 60s. Near Mint-
A great lost chapter in the Cannonball/David Axelrod story!

The record features ... LP, Vinyl record album

Carl Kress
Carl Kress Guitar Stylist (10 inch LP)Capitol, Mid 40s/Early 50s. Very Good
A great set of tracks by this oft-overlooked swing guitarist.

Stan Kenton
Sketches On Standards (10 inch LP)Capitol, Early 50s. Very Good+
Wonderful work from Kenton – warm and seductive, yet also modern and adventurous, tunes that are familiar, yet inexplicably transformed by the Kentonite approach!

Sophisticated ApproachCapitol, 1961. Near Mint-

Lee Morgan
SidewinderBlue Note, 1964. Very Good+
A jazz classic if there ever was one – and the best-selling album ever by Lee Morgan, thanks to the use of the title track in a car commercial! Sure, you've probably heard "The Sidewinder" enough that you think you know the album already – but the rest of the tunes really ... LP, Vinyl record album
