James Clay a Double Dose of Soul

James Clay a Double Dose of Soul

Here we are looking at James Clay’s a Double Dose of Soul. This one is a little worn, which is a shame because the record is soooo good! I don’t find the noise gets in the way, but let me describe it for you. The cover has some age/wear to the front and...
Bill Evans Trio – Live at the Vanguard

Bill Evans Trio – Live at the Vanguard

Here we are looking at Bill Evans Trio’s Live at the Vanguard with Scott LaFaro, on Riverside from 1961. This one is super nice – it was a find in a box from a collection I bought a year ago. Looking at the cover, this is in sweet shape. There is a bit of...
Horace Silver – The Stylings of Silver

Horace Silver – The Stylings of Silver

Here we are looking at Horace Silver Quintet’s The Stylings of Silver, re-released on Blue Note in mono in 1966. The main thing to think about on this one, is the rip in the cover. That one is an “ouch”, and there are some super light penciled notes...
Fleetwood Mac – In Chicago w/Guest Stars

Fleetwood Mac – In Chicago w/Guest Stars

Here we are looking at Fleetwood Mac’s Live in Chicago, with a whole bunch of cool guest stars. There’s not a whole lot to say about this one, other than it looks really great. The records were stored in a plastic sleeve, so the cover is in stellar...
John Coltrane – Coltrane Jazz

John Coltrane – Coltrane Jazz

Here we have John Coltrane’s Coltrane Jazz. This is the stereo version from 1961 – I also have the mono one in equally beautiful shape should that one be of interest (I prefer mono releases myself). This one is really great though – it’s super...

More fun for Mr. Mouton

Ok Vincent – we’ll just get right into these…some nice titles to think about. As always, click an image to see it larger. I’ll start with what is probably my fave in the bunch, Beverly Kenney Sings for Johnny Smith....
Yusef Lateef – Jazz Mood

Yusef Lateef – Jazz Mood

Here we are looking at a lovely copy of Yusef Lateef’s Jazz Mood on Savoy, MG 12103. While not the original pressing, this is a stellar reissue. The cover is in great shape, especially the front. There are no splits on the edges, nor any fraying...
The Alabama Band – #3

The Alabama Band – #3

Here we have The Alabama Band #3 on Alabama records. This one is in really well preserved shape, with some age in it, but nothing that looks like it will affect play. The age on the front cover is in some discoloring/yellowing toward the top half. The edges and spine...
Harry Belaphonte – Live at Carnegie Hall

Harry Belaphonte – Live at Carnegie Hall

Here we have Harry Belaphonte at Carnegie Hall, a 2-record set on RCA Victor (LSO 3006) recorded in two shows in 1959. As you can see from the pictures, this one is in really nice shape. The front and back covers have a solid shine still and are not yet showing much...
