Blue Note (Japan), 1967. New Copy ... $14.99
An incredible album from Donald Byrd – hard, funky, and with more of an edge than most of his other Blue Note work! The sound on the album's incredibly sinister – really concerned with downward chord turns in moody rhythms – played with a real sense of soul by a frontline that ... (Jazz) read more CD

Byrd In Hand ... LP Blue Note, 1959. Very Good ... Out Of Stock
One of the best of Donald Byrd's early Blue Note albums – a sparkling set of hardbop tunes with a really souful edge! The album's one of a few that feature Byrd working with baritonist Pepper Adams – a frequent partner on his best recording dates of the late 50s, of which this set is ...

Transition/Blue Note (Japan), 1955. Used ... $39.99
A wailer! This rare 1955 album is one of Donald Byrd's first records as a leader – recorded for the tiny Transition label in Boston, but with a hardbop groove that's right up there with his early work for Savoy and Blue Note. The record is practically a Jazz Messengers session – as it ... (Jazz) read more CD

Blue Note, 1976. Very Good ... $11.99
Donald Byrd's last Blue Note album with fusion genius Larry Mizell – and a doozy!

Blue Note, 1961. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... $26.99 34.99
A Donald Byrd treasure – and an album that was almost left in the vaults by Blue Note, until they briefly released it at the end of the 70s! The cover and title are a bit unfamiliar, but the music is right up there with Byrd's classic sessions with baritonist Pepper Adams – a great ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Donald Byrd's Best ... LP Blue Note, Early 70s/1975. Very Good- ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A tasty collection of goodies that Donald recorded with the great Larry Mizell during the early 70s.

Beautiful quintet material by Donald Byrd, and a record that has him breaking from his stock hardbop of his early years, to hit the more spiritual groove that would show up on later albums. The group's very tasty – and Wayne Shorter's on tenor and Herbie Hancock's on piano. Includes a great ... (Jazz) read more CD
