Collectables, 1958/1967. Used ... $7.99
An unlikely pairing of albums, but another nice 2-fer of classic Atlantic sides.

Atlantic/Collectables, 1972. Used ... $3.99
A rare meeting of 2 modern talents from the 50s – joined together in one unique performance from the Newport Jazz Festival in 1971!

Paul Chambers/Vee Jay/Collectables, 1959/1960. Used ... Out Of Stock
2 classic bop sides from the long-gone Vee Jay label!

An early crossover classic from Tommy Boy – and one of the first albums to mix together hip hop and mainstream R&B!
