Mary Osborne – A Girl and Her Guitar

Mary Osborne – A Girl and Her Guitar

Here we have Mary Osborne’s A Girl and Her Guitar for review. I found this one in a box and was intrigued by the cover – I had never heard of her, so I spun it, and it was just lovely…great playing, and recorded beautifully. Her tone is superb. The...
Illinois Jacquet w/Kenny Burrell- Desert Winds

Illinois Jacquet w/Kenny Burrell- Desert Winds

Here is a lovely version of Desert Winds by Illinois Jacquet, with Kenny Burrell.  Cover shows a little bit of wear – it is minor, shelf and handling wear. Age, like liver spots. Dirt, that can’t be cleaned. Nothing major – but it is less than...
Blossom Dearie – My Gentleman Friend

Blossom Dearie – My Gentleman Friend

Here we have Blossom Dearie’s My Gentleman Friend. This is in great shape, and has a stellar band. I gotta say, when I first listened to it I didn’t think too much of Blossom, but her childlike voice actually grew on me, and her piano playing is very...
Them – Them Again

Them – Them Again

Here’s a really nice copy of Them Again. There are some super light scuffs from storage – look at the pix of the wax, and enlarge to see. Nothing deep or major, but they are noted…wanted to be sure you see these before I send. Looks like it’ll...
Booker Little 4 and Max Roach

Really cool Booker Little 4 and Max Roach promo record here. This one is in really nice shape overall, both in the cover and the wax. The cover is solid all around, with no real serious wear or deterioration showing. Look at the upper corner on the right – super...
Jackie McClean – It’s Time

Jackie McClean – It’s Time

Here we have It’s Time by Jackie McClean, an original Blue Note release. This is a pretty special find – it was in a box with a couple other copies, all later releases. It was stored well, and kept in a plastic outer sleeve. I did replace the sleeve with a...
AC/DC Flick The Switch

AC/DC Flick The Switch

Here’s a cover of AC DC’s Flick the switch.  While a clean cover for the most part, note the water discoloration on bottom – and the small notch cut. Beyond that, there are only random small spots on it, and some very light wear from the shelf. Click...
Jane Powell – Can’t We Be Friends?

Jane Powell – Can’t We Be Friends?

Here we have a great copy of Jane Powell’s Can’t We Be Friends? The cover is solid – showing only a little bit of wear/age at best. The spine and edges are all solid – saw no splits. This was stored in a plastic sleeve in a box for many...
Chet Baker Sextet and Charlie Parker with Strings

Chet Baker Sextet and Charlie Parker with Strings

Here we are looking at two copies of the Chet Baker Sextet record on 10 inch, as well as Charlie Parker with Strings (no cover). First, the Chet records both play about the same – there is very minimal noise on them, and the playing has tons of room to be...
Ral Donner Takin’ Care of Business

Ral Donner Takin’ Care of Business

Here’s a really lovely copy of Takin’ Care of Business by Ral Donner. You can see from the pictures, this is a trophy piece – and yeah, I graded it low-side with VG+ – it’s a honey. On the cover, look at the top left corner –...
