Don't Look Back

CD (Item 631246) High Note, 2012 — Condition: Used
Out Of Stock

CD

✈
A wonderful pairing of talents – the ever-evolving vocals of Mary Stallings, and the rock-solid piano talents of Eric Reed! Stallings is one of those singers who just sounds better and better as the years go on – working with a depth and individual sense of structure that recalls Betty Carter or Sarah Vaughan in their later days – especially the latter, as Mary's got this way of crafting lyrical lines with a sense of space that's completely her own – as Reed relates in his notes on the session! The group also features a bit of bass from Reuben Rogers and drums from Carl Allen – although about a third of the set, if not more, features just piano and vocals. Titles include "Night Mist Blues", "Soul Eyes", "Key Largo", "Mary's Blues", 'People Time", "Don't Look Back", and "Is That".  © 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.
