Beautiful blowing from the great Barney Wilen – an album that's as relaxed as you might guess from the image on the cover, but which has a rock-solid sound all the way through! At this point in his career, Barney's definitely back on top of his game – playing both tenor and soprano sax with a style that's relatively inside, but which always has a bit of an edge in the tone – echoing his years in music, both good and bad, and coming across with a depth that's undeniable. One of the real strengths of the record is also the rhythm section – Kenny Barron on piano, Ira Coleman on bass, and Lewis Nash on drums – all of whom swing things strongly on the upbeat tracks, and provide Barney with some wonderfully sensitive accompaniment on the ballads. Titles include "You'd Be So Nice To Come Home To", "Mack The Knife", "No Problem", "Blues Walk", "I Will Say Goodbye", and "Don't Fence Me In". © 1996-2025, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Used CD Grade
We use the all-encompassing grade "Used CD" for non-new CDs 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 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.
Condition Notes
If something is relevant, we try to describe it in the notes — especially if it is release or packaging details, or an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the CD. This might include, but isn't limited to, scratches, tracks that skip, case/insert damage or wear, or strictly cosmetic flaws.

A warm and wonderful set from French tenor genius Barney Wilen – perhaps one of his best of the past 20 years! The record features a stripped-down organ trio, which brings out some of the best tone we've heard from Wilen's horn in a long time. In a way, the record is vaguely similar to Stan ... CD

Archie Shepp
True Blue (Japanese paper sleeve edition)Venus (Japan), 1998. Used
Great Shepp with a great group – a quartet that pairs Archie's amazing tenor with the piano of John Hicks! The album's one of the best of Archie Shepp's later ballad albums – and has a really standout feel, thanks to Hicks' warmer tones on the piano alongside Shepp's raspier notes. ... CD

Drummer Takashi Miyasaka works here with a great little group – one that has touches of some of the Japanese fusion modes of the period, but which mostly sticks to a more straight ahead sound – really bridging the two styles in a really great way! Part of the energy comes from Takashi's ... CD
