Best Of King Curtis – One More Time
LP (Item 591496) Prestige, Early 60s — Condition: Very Good+
Related searches
Excellent work from the short time that saxophonist King Curtis recorded for Prestige records – mostly on their R&B-tinged Tru-Sound label! Players include Paul Griffin on piano, Billy Butler on guitar, and Jack McDuff on Hammond! © 1996-2025, 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.

Lee Konitz Quintet/Prestige, Early 50s. Very Good
One of THE key records in the Konitz school – an early Prestige 10" LP that features Lee's quintet on side one, and Lee & Lennie Tristano playing together in Tristano's quintet on side two!

Larry Young
Groove StreetPrestige, 1962. Sealed
A very tight early session by the great organist Larry Young! The album's quite different than Young's later Blue Note work – more in-the-pocket soul jazz, but filled with the expansive sensibility that would later have him take off for the heavens. The biggest example of this tendency is ... LP, Vinyl record album
John Coltrane
SoultranePrestige, 1958. Very Good
A bold early statement from a young John Coltrane – and an album that really has him expanding his talents as a tenor soloist!

Gil Evans
Big Stuff (aka Gil Evans & Ten)Prestige/New Jazz, Late 50s. Very Good
Fantastic early work from Gil Evans – emerging here in this early session as an already far-thinking modernist.

Miles Davis All Stars
Walkin'Prestige, 1954. Very Good+
As classic an early album by Miles Davis as you can find – truly filled with the "all star" players billed in the title, and a session that has the sharpness of Davis' bop work for Blue Note, yet also lets him stretch out in a slightly more relaxed format! The album features Miles ... LP, Vinyl record album

TwoCTI, 1975. Very Good+ Gatefold
A monster – and quite possibly one of the greatest Fender Rhodes albums of all time!

Coltrane Live At BirdlandImpulse, 1963. Very Good+
Soaring and soulful work from the legendary John Coltrane – a tremendous live set that's one of his best early 60s albums!
