Sunayama

LP (Item 659795) Frasco (Japan), 1978 — Condition: Very Good+
Temporarily Out Of Stock

LP, Vinyl record album

✈
❔
One of the boldest sessions we've ever heard from this amazing Japanese pianist – way more so than you might guess from the cover! Features some great alto from Akira Sakata, plus Hitoshi Okano and Kenji Nakazawa on trumpets, and Yasuaki Shimizu on tenor and Shigeharu Mukai on trombone.  © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.
(Original pressing – FS-7025, with insert. Cover has a small bit of light aging, mostly on the back – but this is a nice copy overall.)

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.

Further Definitions
Impulse, 1961. Near Mint- Gatefold
A key later album from alto saxophonist Benny Carter – one that has him at the helm of a largeish group, but playing with a nicely focused sort of groove!

Wes Montgomery

So Much Guitar!
Riverside, 1961. Near Mint-
So much guitar – but never too much, given that Wes was the real master of sound and space, even at this early point in his career! The album's one that tries to break Montgomery from some of his smaller combo albums for Riverside, and pair him with a few bigger names – Hank Jones on ... LP, Vinyl record album
CTI, 1974. Near Mint-
An excellent little live set from Deodato – hard to believe because the sound's just as tight and funky as his studio albums, and possibly even more interesting because he manages to pull it off equally well in a live setting!

Homage
Xanadu, 1959/1982. Near Mint-

Warne Marsh

Live In Hollywood
Xanadu, 1951. Near Mint-
70s issue of a great little live set – recorded in LA in 1951, one of those private recordings from the time that saw brief release on the Xanadu label. Tracks are long, and Warne's playing in a much more open-ended mode with a quartet that features Hampton Hawes, Joe Mondragon, and Shelly ... LP, Vinyl record album

Billy Taylor

One For Fun
Atlantic, 1959. Near Mint-
It might not be the frolic that the title implies, but that's a plus – because this a straight-up solid early album from Taylor – recorded in tight trio format, with that no-nonsense soulful approach that made him a star player from the start! The group features the great (and ... LP, Vinyl record album

Arista, 1979. Near Mint-
Not just disco nights, but some great mellow moments too – a wonderfully well-rounded classic from this great quartet – as tight and groovy as it is cool and classy!
