One of the hardest to find Astrud Gilberto records on Verve – and one of the best!

Liberty (Japan), 1956. Used ... $6.99
One of the strangest things about Abbey Lincoln's career is the fact that, despite her hip affiliations with the left end of the jazz spectrum, she's actually been slotted into a fair number of straighter projects, not only in music, but in film as well. This album's a perfect example of that ... read more CD

Reprise, Early 60s. Used ... Just Sold Out!
Frank's first album for his own label – Reprise catalog number 1001 (originally), a number that must have made Sinatra proud!

Beautiful early sounds from the legendary Sylvester – very different than the later hits, especially the disco ones – and a set that was recorded before all the big records of the 70s!
