Poindexter
LP (Item 58916) Inner City, 1978 — Condition: Very Good+
Related searches
One of the few records ever cut as a leader by Pony Poindexter – the enigmatic sax player who spent most of his better years in Europe, and missed getting the stateside recognition he deserved. This set's recorded back in the US, in California at the end of the 70s – and it's got Pony blowing easy-going solos on alto with a quartet that includes Neal Kirkwood on piano, Art Washington on bass, and Richie Goldberg on drums. The album's pretty laidback, and although the tracks lack the nice groove of some of Pony's best European material, his tone on the alto still has that raspy edge that always makes him one of our favorite players on the instrument. Titles include "Candy Pants", "Spanish Fly", "Song For D", and "Pretty Lady". © 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.
