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.
Used CD Grade
We have only one grade for non-new CDs at Dusty Groove — "Used CD". This grade is somewhat all-encompassing, but we choose it because we try to offer Used CDs in the best shape possible.
When you purchase a Used CD you can expect the disc to be free of all but the lightest of surface marks, the case to be clean (we often change the cases ourselves), and the booklet to be in good shape. Used CDs may show some signs of use but if there are significant details or defects we will list them underneath the item — just like we do with LPs — so look there for notes on cutout marks, stickers, promo stamps or other details.
All of our Used CDs are guaranteed to play without skipping or flaws. If you purchase a Used CD from Dusty Groove, you have 1 week to play it to determine that it plays correctly — and if it does not, then you may return it for a full refund.

Kenny Dorham
Whistle Stop (RVG remaster edition)Blue Note, 1961. Used
Maybe one of the greatest albums ever from trumpeter Kenny Dorham – a set that has him really stretching out as a musician – not just showing off that impeccable sense of tone that marked his important records of the 50s, but also coming up with new ways of phrasing, and a sometimes-uniq ... CD

Back At The Chicken Shack (with bonus track)Blue Note, 1960. Used

Freddie Redd
Redd's BluesBlue Note, 1961. Used
A real corker from Freddie Redd – and never issued at the time! Despite the fact that Freddie was part of one of the greatest sessions ever on Blue Note – the soundtrack to The Connection, done with Jackie McLean – he rarely got the chance to record more for the label, which is ... CD
Horace Silver
Spotlight On Drums – Art Blakey – Sabu (RVG edition)Blue Note, 1952/1953. Used
A seminal, yet unusual 50s Blue Note treasure!

But the record also includes 2 ... CD

Charlie Parker At StoryvilleBlue Note, 1953. Used
Rare work by Charlie Parker, recorded at Storyville Nightclub in Boston in 1953 – originally broadcast on radio station WHDH, and featuring Bird in a more open, relaxed style than his studio sessions. The recording quality is a bit dated, but the quality of the playing isn't – with ... CD

Open Sesame (with bonus tracks)Blue Note, 1960. Used

John Patton
Along Came JohnBlue Note, 1963. Used
A really unusual album from the mighty Hammond giant John Patton – as the set features two tenor players in the group, both of them great! The tenor's no stranger to the sublime keyboard work of Patton – but here, the great one gets help from both Fred Jackson and Harold Vick – ... CD

Ben Webster (with Harry Carney)
Music For Loving (Music For Loving/Verve, 1950s. Used 2 CDs

More Blues & The Abstract Truth (with bonus tracks)Impulse, 1963. Used
