Kenny Drew —
Talkin & Walkin ... LP 
Jazz West, 1955. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
A heck of a rare jazz album – and a great one too! This obscure session was cut by pianist Kenny Drew in Hollywood in 1955, with a sharp-edged west coast quartet that includes LA boppers Leroy Vinnegar on bass and Larry Marable on drums, as well as the overlooked Joe Maini on alto – a ...

Introducing Jane Fielding ... LP Jazz West, 1955. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
Remarkable work from Jane Fielding – a little-known west coast singer from the 50s, one who cut a handful of great rare albums! This set's a stone winner all the way through – stripped down backing by a small combo that includes Lou Levy and Red Mitchell – and a set of songs that ...

Jane Fielding with The Kenny Drew Quintet —
Embers Glow ... LP Jazz West, 1956. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
Quite a rare vocal jazz session – recorded for the short lived Jazz West label, which was one of the hippest LA imprints of the 50s!

Irene Kral —
Lady Of Lavender ... CD 
Jazz West, Mid 70s. Used ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Not much here in the way of notes, but a great little session – one of those mature, intimate sessions that Irene Kral recorded so beautifully in the later years of her life! The track selection is quite strong – lesser-known numbers that offer a sophisticated look at love and live, ... (Vocalists) read more CD
Jazz West/Universal (Japan), 1956. New Copy ... $10.99 13.99
The only album to ever feature drummer Lawrence Marable as the leader of a group – and a cooking little hardbop set that showed the world that LA wasn't just a source for cool jazz in the 50s! The record is quite different than anything you'd hear from Chet Baker or Shorty Rogers – ... (Jazz) read more CD
Art Pepper —
Return Of Art Pepper – The Complete Art Pepper Aladdin Recordings Vol 1 ... CD Jazz West/Blue Note (Japan), 1956. Used ... Out Of Stock
Given that Pepper was on and off the LA scene a fair bit in the 50s – due to personal trouble and legal battles – this album's not so much "the return", as it is one of Pepper's many strong steps back into the studio, a place in which he demonstrated an uncanny ability to ... (Jazz) read more CD
(Out of print, includes obi. Booklet has some light age spots.)
Jazz West/Blue Note, 1956. Used ... $11.99
Key early work from trumpeter Jack Sheldon – a set that captures his talents at their most basic and most stripped-down – very much in the spirit of the best LA jazz coming out on the Pacific Jazz label at the time! If the cover makes the set look a bit like a Chet Baker album, that's ... (Jazz) read more CD
