Red Garland —
Red Alone ... CD Prestige/OJC, Early 60s. Used ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Pretty unusual work for the time – an album of solo piano tracks, played by Red, in an unfettered format that was rare enough for pianists, but even more so for those in the soul jazz end of the spectrum like Red. The tunes are almost all standards – done by Red in an impeccable manner ... (Jazz) read more CD
Red Garland —
Red Garland's Piano ... CD Prestige/OJC, 1957. Used ... Out Of Stock
Red Garland's piano was certainly humming strong at the time of this session – as Red's trio were one of the key rhythm components of many Prestige albums of the late 50s, but also a real starring act on their own! The album's got a laidback, almost mellow feel that's a bit different from ... (Jazz) read more CD

Red Garland —
Solar ... CD Jazzland/OJC, 1962. Used ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
An obscure little quartet session from Red Garland – recorded with Les Spann on both guitar and flute, caught at a time when he was just starting to make waves on the New York scene! The presence of Spann gives the record a decidedly different feel than most of Garland's work on Prestige ... (Jazz) read more CD

Red Garland with Ray Barretto —
Rojo ... CD Prestige/OJC, 1958. Used ... Out Of Stock
Red Garland's really cooking on this late 50s set – thanks to some added conga work from Ray Barretto on most of the album's tracks – and that great little groove that Barretto's percussion brought to some other soul jazz cookers like this from the time! Garland still gets plenty of ... (Jazz) read more CD

Benny Golson —
Modern Touch ... CD Riverside/OJC, 1957. Used ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
The modern touch indeed! You can't get any more classic Benny Golson than this – a sublime late 50s album that features Benny with a sextet, working out amazing versions of the sorts of material that set him apart from every other jazz arranger of the time! The tracks here are complicated, ... (Jazz) read more CD

Tiny Grimes —
Tiny In Swingville ... CD Swingville/OJC, 1961. Used ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Tiny's in Swingville – and as far as we're concerned, it's a great place to be! The set's got Tiny grooving on guitar in that easy-going, open-ended style that made the Prestige Swingville sessions so great – nothing fancy, just a relaxed approach to the session that makes for some of ...

Vince Guaraldi —
Latin Side Of Vince Guaraldi ... CD Fantasy/OJC, Early 60s. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
A wonderfully sweet little album from pianist Vince Guaraldi – a lively dancer that has all the charm of his best soundtrack work, but which also inflects that tone with some really great Latin touches as well! Guaraldi's piano is incredibly lyrical – dancing with a sense of lightness ... (Jazz) read more CD
Vince Guaraldi —
Vince Guaraldi Trio ... CD Fantasy/OJC, 1956. Used ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Early genius from pianist Vince Guaraldi – recorded years before his Peanuts fame, but proof that he was an extremely original talent even at the start!

Contemporary/OJC, 1966. Used ... $9.99
Beautiful 60s work from Hampton Hawes – a set from the middle of the decade, a period when he wasn't recorded all that often – but one not issued by Contemporary until his American revival in the 70s! The group's got a wickedly fluid feel – not just Hamp's always-amazing piano, ... (Jazz) read more CD

Coleman Hawkins —
Hawk Flies High ... CD Riverside/OJC, 1957. Used ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A key album in the reintroduction of Coleman Hawkins in the late 50s – recorded in a style that still bears a lot of traces of earlier years, but at a time when Hawk was being claimed as a key influence by a variety of younger modernists! The set's got a sense of freedom that's really ... (Jazz) read more CD

Prestige/Moodsville/OJC, 1961. Used ... $5.99
The Hawk Relaxes, but never lets himself go – and a set like this is a great illustration of the gentle genius that made so many later Coleman Hawkins records so great!

Milestone/OJC, 1973. New Copy ... $11.99 12.98
Subtle genius from Joe Henderson – a wonderfully laidback album that interweaves Latin rhythms, west coast soul jazz, and some slight electric touches – all in a mode that shows Henderson to be one of the deepest thinking players of his scene! All tracks are long and exploratory, ... (Jazz) read more CD
Milestone/OJC, 1971. New Copy ... $11.99 12.98
An excellent rare session from Joe – recorded in Japan, and featuring the kind of electric piano grooves that work great with his sweet reed sound of the early 70s. The group's a Japanese trio, with Motohiko Hino on drums, and Hideo Ichikawa on electric piano – and the cuts all have ... (Jazz) read more CD
Milestone/OJC, 1973. New Copy ... $11.99 12.98
Fantastic electric work from the great Joe Henderson – one of his most free-wheeling sets for Milestone, and one of his best as well!

Joe Henderson —
Tetragon ... CD Milestone/OJC, 1967. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
An excellent set that really shows Joe Henderson perched on the edge – hanging between his Blue Note hardbop work of the 60s, and his freer work of the early 70s! The lineup's a great one – with Kenny Barron on piano, Ron Carter on bass, and either Louis Hayes or Jack DeJohnette on ... (Jazz) read more CD

One of the greatest Joe Henderson albums of the 70s – a suite of tracks dedicated to the four elements – and served up with some great accompaniment from Alice Coltrane!

Elmo Hope —
Hope-Full ... CD Riverside/OJC, 1961. Used ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
One of the clearest portraits of the genius of Elmo Hope on record – a rare later album of mostly solo piano work, plus a few tunes that feature Elmo duetting with wife Bertha! There's no other backing on the set – just Elmo on piano, playing in an angular mode that's some of his most ... (Jazz) read more CD

Prestige/OJC, 1955. Used ... $6.99
Beautiful trio work by Elmo Hope – one of his first sessions as a leader, and while still quite modern, also a record that's done with a warmer, mellower feel than some of his other work – as you might guess from the cover image and the Meditations title! The group on the set features ... (Jazz) read more CD

Elmo Hope with Frank Foster —
Hope Meets Foster ... CD Prestige/OJC, 1955. Used ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
One of the most hard-edged albums ever cut by pianist Elmo Hope – and a smoking date that features lots of great tenor from Frank Foster – who'd recorded previously with Hope on Blue Note!
