World Pacific, 1958. Good ... $1.99
Early material from the west coast folk scene – including Bud & Travis before they went pop, and some nice work from Barbara Dane! (Folk/Country) LP, Vinyl record album
(Mono black label pressing with deep groove. Cover has discoloration from age, a split top seam, and light wear.)
World Pacific, 1957. Very Good ... $4.99
A strange little record, but one with more of a jazz component than you might think! Gary's the son of Bing, natch – and he's following here in his pop's footsteps, singing jazz standards with backing conducted by Bud Shank. The interesting thing is that the session was actually recorded in ... (Vocalists) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Blue label pressing with silver text and deep groove. Logo on top of cover has a bit of pen, and that same top corner has a bit of seam splitting.)
EMI/World Pacific, 1995. Used ... $14.99
A great later album from Joao Donato – one that almost took the world by surprise when it was released, as it came after a long period of silence from the bossa legend! The set's got a mellow-grooving feel that's definitely rooted in bossa, with a touch of jazz – modernized slightly, ... (Brazil) read more CD

Great Jazz Standards ... LP World Pacific, 1959. Sealed ... $19.99
A fantastic lost set from Evans – one that features Mingus trumpeter Johnny Coles as the lead soloist in front of Evans-led modern groups that include players like Elvin Jones, Ray Crawford, Steve Lacy, Budd Johnson, Rod Levitt, and Chuck Wayne.

New Bottle Old Wine (180 gram pressing) ... LP World Pacific/Blue Note, 1958. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
A masterpiece through and through from arranger Gil Evans – a record of swinging modern backdrops, used to showcase both the solo talents of a young Cannonball Adderley, and the dynamic energy of Evans himself!

World Pacific/Blue Note, 1953. New Copy (reissue)... $31.99 35.99
A set that's noteworthy not just for the presence of alto saxophonist Lee Konitz, and for the leadership of baritonist Gerry Mulligan – but a record that also features the great Chet Baker on trumpet, working here as part of a trio of musicians who were really helping transform the sound of ...

(Cover has mostly split seams, light surface wear, and some aging.)
World Pacific/Liberty, Mid 60s. Very Good- ... $6.99
Tight funky organ work from Billy Larkin and his hard-swingin Delegates combo! This stuff was the west coast equivalent of New Jersey organ combos – and you can bet your bippy that Billy & Co were blasting loud out of every jukebox on Central Ave during the 60s. This album's still got ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Mono pressing with deep groove. Cover has a trace of a price sticker and splits on the spine.)
World Pacific, Mid 60s. Near Mint- ... $19.99
Billy Larkin plays soul jazz instrumentals with The Delgates, and the group's joined by singer Ralph Black on a number of cuts.

Billy Larkin & The Delegates —
Hold On! ... LP World Pacific, Mid 60s. Very Good+ ... Out Of Stock
Classic small combo organ grooves from Billy Larkin and his mighty Delegates! This LP has Billy moving into a bag in which he's covering more 60's soul hits (as he did in his later career for World Pacific), but the groove is still pretty solid, and the album's still got few good original tracks. ...

Photographs Of Feeling ... LP World Pacific, 1966. Near Mint- ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
World Pacific, Early 60s. Very Good+ ... $9.99
A strange batch of titles played by one of the stranger groups of the late 50s, but the record works nicely – possibly because Rodgers & Hammerstein's tracks are a good forum for the group's mix of soul jazz and lyrical mysticism. Monk Montgomery plays an early Fender bass, Buddy ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

World Pacific (Japan), 1967. New Copy ... $13.99
An album that really lives up to its title – as the sound here is more stripped-down and simple than some of the more large format World Pacific 60s albums from guitarist Joe Pass – a great return to his roots, and an album that really lets us hear Joe's fantastic work on the stings of ...

World Pacific (Japan), 1966. New Copy ... $13.99
A sweet jazzy take on the music of The Rolling Stones – one that features guitarist Joe Pass in the lead, over some tight backings from the great Bob Florence!

World Pacific, 1959. Very Good+ ... $26.99
Great stuff – one of Annie Ross' rare albums as a solo act away from her trio with Jon Hendricks and Dave Lambert – and a great little session cut with small combo jazz backing, which gives the song a nice swinging edge! Zoot Sims is the main soloist on the tunes, Russ Freeman lays ... (Vocalists) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Black label mono pressing with deep groove. Cover has a name in pen on back and light edge wear, but is nice overall.)

Kitty White —
Intimate Kitty White (aka Moment Of Love) ... LP World Pacific, 1955. Very Good ... $7.99
Some of the earliest work we've ever seen from Kitty White – and some of the most haunting as well! The album has tracks with Kitty singing only with accompaniment on harp – played by Corky Hale with a really dark, moody sort of sound – one that works perfectly with the bluer ...
