Piano Panorama (10 inch LP)

LP (Item 735800) Atlantic, Early 50s — Condition: Very Good
Originally: 38.99
Early quartet work from pianist Billy Taylor – in a group with John Collins on guitar, Al McKibbon on bass, and Shadow Wilson on drums!  © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.
(Cover has light wear, but is very nice overall – and vinyl is nice and clean.)

Very Good

  • Vinyl can have some dirt, but nothing major.
  • May not shine under light, but should still be pretty clean, and not too dirty.
  • May have a number of marks (5 to 10 at most), and obvious signs of play, but never a big cluster of them, or any major mark that would be very deep. Most marks should still not click under a fingernail.
  • May not look near perfect, but should play fairly well, with slight surface noise, and the occasional click in part of a song, but never throughout a whole song or more.
  • This is clearly a copy that was played by someone a number of times, but which could also be a good "play copy" for someone new.

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.

Billy Taylor

Uptown
Riverside, 1960. Very Good
A pretty great trio date from Billy Taylor – and somewhat overlooked, too! The group features Henry Grimes on bass and Ray Mosca on drums – and the set captures Billy in a perfect spot between his early work for Prestige, and some of his 60s mainstream material – heard here in a ... LP, Vinyl record album

Billy Taylor

Warming Up
Riverside, 1960. Very Good+
One of Billy's rarest sessions from the 60s – a trio set for Riverside, recorded in early 1960, and a great little session considering how obscure it is! The group's a trio, with Henry Grimes on bass and Ray Mosca on drums – supporting Billy's fluidly soulful work on the keys, over a ... LP, Vinyl record album

John Coltrane

My Favorite Things
Atlantic, 1961. Fair
Wonderful wonderful wonderful work from the legendary John Coltrane – and even though it's probably one of his best-selling albums of all time, it's still a treasure – and has an essential place in just about any jazz collection! We've heard the original title version of "My ... LP, Vinyl record album

John Coltrane

Giant Steps
Atlantic, 1959. Very Good
A true giant step for John Coltrane – and one of the first albums to really showcase his talent as a writer – and his amazing ability for penning some of the most soulful, spiritual themes in jazz! Apart from the well-known title cut, the record's filled with other Coltrane classics ... LP, Vinyl record album
Atlantic, 1976. Near Mint-
Eddie continues the funky groove begun on Instant Funk, and smoothed out over albums like I Need Some Money – and although jazz fans probably gave him hell for going this way, we think this is actually a pretty darn great album! The record takes all of Eddie's experimentation with groovy ... LP, Vinyl record album
Atlantic, 1959/1960. Very Good
What can we say? Trane's work for Atlantic is still some of his best – and the versions of tunes on this album remain as some of the best-remembered tracks in his rich rich bag of songs. Titles include "Giant Steps", "Naima", "Cousin Mary", "Equinox", ... LP, Vinyl record album

Modern Jazz Quartet

Plastic Dreams
Atlantic, 1971. Very Good+ Gatefold
One of the groovier albums the Modern Jazz Quartet ever recorded – as you might expect, given the cover and title! In addition to the group's usual cool sound from Milt Jackson's vibes, the set also features John Lewis playing a bit of harpsichord in addition to his usual piano – and ... LP, Vinyl record album

Eddie Harris

In Sound
Atlantic, 1965. Very Good+
We can never get enough of Eddie Harris – and a record like this is a great reason why! Despite all the many different settings Eddie worked in at Atlantic, he still always stayed true to his roots – and a record like this is a perfect example of that – no electric horn, no funk, ...

Philly Joe Jones & Elvin Jones

Philly Joe Jones & Elvin Jones Together!
Atlantic, 1961. Very Good+
A stunner of an album – and one that definitely draws plenty power from the double drummers in the lead! The set's way different than most of Elvin Jones' other work of the time – and is even more hard-hitting than some of the Philly Joe Jones sessions too – and, unusual for ... LP, Vinyl record album
Atlantic, Early 1950s. Very Good
A very obscure Atlantic 10" album from tenor genius Don Byas – with tracks that include "Easy To Love", "Stardust", "The Man I Love", "Night & Day", and "Where Or When". LP, Vinyl record album
