Complete Savoy & Dial Masters

CD (Item 565921) Definitive (Spain), Late 40s — Condition: Used
Out Of Stock

CD

✈
Some of the most important work in the career of trumpeter Howard McGhee – late 40s sides recorded for the Savoy and Dial labels, done at a time when McGhee was really at his prime – and not plagued with the personal troubles that marred many of his 50s recordings! Most of the tracks are in small group mode, with a nascent bop sound that's handled perfectly by players that include Teddy Edwards, Dodo Marmarosa, Roy Porter, Jimmy Heath, Milt Jackson, and Hank Jones. The set features 27 tracks in all – and titles include "Trumpet At Tempo", "Talk Of The Town", "Bass C Jam", "Belle From Bunnycock", "The Last Word", "High Wind In Hollywood", "Sleepwalker Boogie", "Surrender", and "Turnip Blood".  © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.

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 only use the grade "Used CD" for non-new CDs. This all-encompassing grade was chosen it because we only buy and offer used CDs in the best possible condition.

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 describe the item's condition (just like we do with LPs), so look for notes on cutout marks, stickers, promo stamps or other details before ordering.

All of our used CDs are guaranteed to play without skipping or flaws. After you receive a used CD from Dusty Groove, you have 1 week to play it to determine that it plays correctly. If it does not, you can request a return for a full refund.
