Soul In The Night (purple cover)
LP (Item 5955) Cadet, 1966 — Condition: Very Good+Out Of Stock
LP, Vinyl record album
Related searches
A twin-alto session that matches the sax of Sonny Stitt with that of Bunky Green – both set up in a tight little combo that includes some smoking work on Hammond by organist Odell Brown! Brown's fierce approach to the keys creates a really gutbuckety sound on the set – making the album burn like some of the best Prestige soul jazz sides from the mid 60s – but also opening up some of the tunes in the same sort of skittish groove that Brown was using on his own albums of the period! A young Maurice White plays drums – and titles include "Soul In The Night", "One Alone", "The Spies", and "Home Stretch". © 1996-2019, Dusty Groove, Inc.
(70s orange label pressing. Cover has a cutout notch.)
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.
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.

Illinois Jacquet
Go Power!Cadet, 1966. Very Good+
Go Power indeed – as the album's a really stripped down groover, and one that has the tenor of Illinois Jacquet working in spare trio formation with Milt Bucker on Hammond and Alan Dawson on drums!

Step HighUp Front, Early 60s. Very Good+
Upfront issue of some Donald Byrd stuff recorded in the early 60's.

Nice hard bop stuff, in settings Byrd's not ... LP, Vinyl record album

Giants Of The Organ Come TogetherGroove Merchant, 1973. Sealed
Twin organs back to back – and a heck of a hard-wailing set from Groove Holmes and Jimmy McGriff!
