Black vinyl that may show a slight amount of dust or dirt.
Should still be very shiny under a light, even with slight amount of dust on surface.
One or two small marks that would make an otherwise near perfect record slightly less so.
These marks cannot be too deep, and should only be surface marks that won't affect play,
but might detract from the looks.
May have some flaws and discoloration in the vinyl, but only those that would be
intrinsic to the pressing. These should disappear when the record is tilted under
the light, and will only show up when looking straight at the record.
(Buddah and ABC pressings from the 70's are a good example of this.)
May have some slight marks from aging of the paper sleeve on the vinyl.
Possible minor 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.
Very obscure work as a leader from altoist Johnny Hodges – a rare Atlantic 10" set, in contrast to the bulk of his postwar albums that came out on Verve!

Incredible work from Johnny Hodges – the kind of material that made his time at Verve so great, and a real showcase for that amazing tone on alto sax! The format here is a largeish group one, but Johnny steps out with some beautiful solos that are very much at the front of the mix – ... LP, Vinyl record album
70s issue of a pair of 1961 sessions – with Johnny Hodges on alto, working alongside sidemen from the Ellington orchestra! Billy Strayhorn handles arrangements, and titles include "Azure", "Day Dream", "I Didn't Know About You", "I'm Just A Lucky So & ... LP, Vinyl record album
Three slices of Johnny Hodges performances, from three different decades – with Al Sears on tenor on the 1946 sessions, Don Byas on the 1950 date, and Paul Gonsalves on the 60s set! LP, Vinyl record album
A rare treat – 2LPs worth of material by Johnny Hodges, recorded at the end of the 50s, but never issued until this late 70s set! The first disc features a 1959 session, with players that include Harold Baker, Quentin Jackson, Ben Webster, Jimmy Hamilton, and Jo Jones – accompanying ... LP, Vinyl record album
Excellent work from the great altoist Johnny Hodges – soloing beautifully on a set of standard Gershwin tunes, over wonderfully warm arrangements by Russ Garcia, in the best manner of the Verve "with strings" style. Hodges was a monster soloist in this kind of setting – ... LP, Vinyl record album
A stone cooker from Johnny Hodges – just the right kind of small group session to perfectly showcase his amazing sound on the alto sax!

A rare non-Ellington Johnny Hodges session from the early 50s – featuring Harold Baker on trumpet, Quentin Jackson on trombone, Jimmy Hamilton on clarinet, and Raymond Fol on piano. Titles include "That's Grand", "Wishing & Waiting", "Bean Bag Boogie", and ... LP, Vinyl record album
One of the most unusual albums in the career of trumpet legend Chet Baker – done at a time when he was definitely going through some changes in his life, which also led to some changes in his music too! This set's not unlike a similar date that Stan Getz did for Verve around the same time ... LP, Vinyl record album
Great large group material from Gerry Mulligan – and a record that definitely defines the sound of his famous Concert Jazz Band of the early 60s!

Cole Porter's tunes are great enough on their own, but Oscar really opens them up on this set – picking up the inherent rhythms in the numbers and really working them over – in a way that makes the outing one of the most lively in Peterson's songbook series for Verve! Oscar's fluid ... LP, Vinyl record album
