Art Ensemble Of Chicago —
People In Sorrow ... LP Nessa, 1969. Very Good+ ...
Temporarily Out Of Stock
Like the other Art Ensemble record on Nessa, Les Stances A Sophie, this one was recorded in France on the beautiful July 7, 1969 during one of the most fruitful periods for the group. Unlike that one, though, this one is a very different recording musically. The LP features one long track, the ... (Jazz) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Yellow and white label pressing, in a textured yellow cover with black print. Cover has some light aging around the sides.)
An unlikely, but amazing meeting of the avant jazz minds – a classic set that has LA trumpeter Bobby Bradford coming into play with the UK Spontaneous Music Ensemble, led by drummer John Stevens! The material was recorded, almost spontaneously, on a holiday trip Bradford made to London in ... (Jazz) read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Bobby Bradford/Frode Gjerstad Quartet —
Silver Cornet ... CD Nessa, 2014. Used ...
Temporarily Out Of Stock
The great Bobby Bradford recorded famously for the Nessa label backin the 70s – but here he's heard in the company of some younger players on a contemporary recording – one that shows that his fire hasn't dimmed at all! The group's a quartet – with Frode Gjerstad on alto and ... (Jazz) read moreCD
One of the few albums ever recorded as a leader by this great Chicago tenor player who's been making the scene in the city for over 40 years. Recorded with other Chicago giants John Young and Wilbur Campbell, and in a very laidback vein that lets Vonski solo in the meandering imaginative way that ... (Jazz) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Vinyl has some light sleeve marks from the old plastic inner sleeve, and label has a small bit of marker. Cover has a cut corner.)
A really wonderful album by Roscoe Mitchell and his semi-electric "sound ensemble" – a group that's as devoted to the exploration of sonic space as they are the expression of improvised jazz. The work's got a wonderfully fragile quality – like some of the best Mitchell work ... (Jazz) read moreLP, Vinyl record album

About March 25, 2021
Hal Russell plays drums, C melody sax, cornet, vibes, toy horns, and "lots of other stuff", with Mars Williams playing tenor sax, slide whistles, bells, newspapers, and "lots of other stuff"! (Jazz) LP, Vinyl record album
Really haunting work from Leo Smith – a key 70s session that features some of his sharpest trumpet work on record, plus some unusual instrumentation that really makes the album stand out! Half the tracks feature some wonderful vibes from Bobby Naughton – spare and dark-sounding, very ... (Jazz) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A tremendous 70s album from Charles Tyler – one recorded with a rich, raw tone that's simply mindblowing! Tyler here has all of the deep soul we first came to love during his ESP years, but also a sound that's a bit more focused too – one that's extremely powerful, and boldly righteous ...

Ben Webster —
Did You Call? ... LP Nessa, 1972. Near Mint- ...
Temporarily Out Of Stock
Excellent late 70s issue of a date from a few years earlier, of Ben playing with a pickup European rhythm section. The intimate setting and responsive younger players cast Webster's warm tenor in a great light, and his playing at this point was continuing to develop, with a nice burnished ...
