Two Part Inventions In Jazz Vol 2 (10 inch LP)

LP (Item 514694) Vanguard, 1955 — Condition: Very Good
Originally: 18.99
(Cover has masking tape on the top seam and spine, surface wear, aging. Label has some masking tape remnant.)

Very Good

  • Vinyl can have some dirt, but nothing major.
  • May not shine under light, but should still be pretty clean, and not too dirty.
  • May have a number of marks (5 to 10 at most), and obvious signs of play, but never a big cluster of them, or any major mark that would be very deep. Most marks should still not click under a fingernail.
  • May not look near perfect, but should play fairly well, with slight surface noise, and the occasional click in part of a song, but never throughout a whole song or more.
  • This is clearly a copy that was played by someone a number of times, but which could also be a good "play copy" for someone new.

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.

Larry Coryell

At The Village Gate
Vanguard, 1971. Sealed
One of the most stripped-down records from the early years of Larry Coryell – but one of the most powerful, too – as the record sometimes has Larry singing along with his guitar, in an effortless blend of trippy rock and jazz! The date's a live one – and the trio features Marvin ... LP, Vinyl record album
Vanguard, 1955. Very Good+
One of the more obscure albums from this 50s reedman – with Sam on flute and clarinet, in a combo that includes Barry Galbraith on guitar, Billy Triglia on piano, and Marty Flax on baritone! LP, Vinyl record album

Buck Clayton & Ruby Braff

Buck Meets Ruby (10 inch LP)
Vanguard, Mid 50s. Very Good
A nice pairing of a couple of trad greats on the trumpet, with both Buck Clayton and Ruby Braff sharing the front line, alongside Buddy Tate and Benny Morton in a sweet little octet. The session's produced with the high level of quality you'd expect from this brief series of Vanguard trad albums ... LP, Vinyl record album

Don Elliott with Ellis Larkins

Doubles In Brass (10 inch LP)
Vanguard, 1955. Very Good-
(Vinyl has some bubbles in the pressing and plays with light clicks. Cover has light surface & edge wear, aging.) LP, Vinyl record album

Mike Mandel

Sky Music
Vanguard, 1978. Sealed
Sweet jazzy keys from Mike Mandel – grooving here in a fuller jazz funk mode that's a bit like the best work of the 70s on Kudu Records! The approach is quite nice – with Mike handling all the electrics, and getting solo support from and array of jazzy players who include David Sanborn ... LP, Vinyl record album
Vanguard, Early 1950s. Very Good+
Nat Pierce once again proves to be a hell of a leader – playing piano at the head of a group that includes Richie Kamuca on tenor, Freddie Greene on guitar, Med Flory on alto, Jack Nimitz on baritone, and Urbie Green on trombone! LP, Vinyl record album
Vanguard, Late 50s. Very Good+
With Powell on piano, Mundell Lowe on guitar, Chuck Russo on reeds, and Johnny Glasel on trumpet – plus a bit of vocals from Joan Wile. LP, Vinyl record album

Jimmy Smith

Monster
Verve, 1965. Very Good+ Gatefold
Totally cool Jimmy Smith album that has him playing a lot of funky groovy versions of TV and Film themes, like "Goldfinger", "Theme From The Munsters", "Theme From Man With the Golden Arm", and "Theme From Bewitched". Oliver Nelson leads a large band and ... LP, Vinyl record album

Thelonious Monk

Unique Thelonious Monk
Riverside, 1956. Very Good+
The session's billed as "very personal treatments of great standards" – and it's a great twist on familiar material, all given the Thelonius touch! There's less of Monk's creative composition and angular group arrangements going on here – and instead, the album's almost a ... LP, Vinyl record album

Rahsaan Roland Kirk

Return Of The 5000 Lb Man
Warner, 1975. Very Good+
A beautiful late chapter in the jazz journey of Rahsaan Roland Kirk – and an album of subtle genius that's really opened up to us over the years! The setting here isn't as "hit you over the head" as on some of Kirk's Atlantic Records – because at one level, the tunes are ... LP, Vinyl record album
Roulette, Mid 60s. Very Good+
Nicely swingin' LP put together by the man who supervised some of Stan Kenton's best afro-cuban sessions. Richards is one of the most swinging, hard hitting bandleaders to come out of the post-swing era, and his handling of Latin material is always filled with a lot of fire, and a good sense of ... LP, Vinyl record album

Neal Hefti & His Orchestra

Swingin On Coral Reef (10 inch LP)
Coral, 1953. Very Good+
Hard-swinging work arranged and conducted by a young Neal Hefti – already showing a great flair here for a bouncy tune and the kind of "punch" that later made him a huge hit with Count Basie! Tracks include "Sure Thing", "Uncle Jim", "It's a Happy ... LP, Vinyl record album
