This 200 Gram Heavy Vinyl LP mastered by Classic who have been critically acclaimed as the finest and quietest ever produced. It is a new listening experience that will virtually make you feel as if you were in the studio with Ella.

This early '60s studio session captures Ella Fitzgerald moving toward the smaller, more pointedly jazz-inflected ensembles that would shape her career in her final decades. After the lush orchestrations of her classic series of composer songbooks, which found her collaborating with the best arrangers, the intimate scale and easy interplay of a crack band provide a wonderful platform for the spirited performances here. That Ella herself savored the opportunity is reflected in a program that includes Thelonious Monk's "After Midnight" and a breezy, potent ride through the Charlie Parker/Dizzy Gillespie anthem, "Night In Tunisia." With a mix of bona fide standards and revived swing classics, this is a rediscovered gem, cause enough to clap hands.

Tracks include: Night in Tunisia 2. You're My Thrill 3. My Reverie 4. Stella by Starlight 5. 'Round Midnight 6. Jersey Bounce 7. Signing Off 8. Cry Me a River 9. This Year's Kisses 10.

Wes Montgomery California Dreaming LIMITED EDITION VERVE SERIES LP Career Highlight Reissued On Vinyl LP!

A career highlight for the guitarist, recorded at Rudy Van Gelders studio during September 1966, this Creed Taylor produced album was an artistic and commercial smash, reaching #1 on the US Billboard Jazz chart.

Like most of Montgomery's Verve LPs, "California Dreaming" features the tight orchestrations by Don Sebesky. Sebesky used a large group of 19 players to produce an immense sound. However, unlike the subdued and string accented "Bumpin", "California Dreaming" is a brassy, bouncy affair, with definite emphasis on bounce!

The album features many fine soloists, including Herbie Hancock on piano, Bucky Pizzarelli on acoustic guitar, Ray Baretto on congas, and the steady backbeat of Grady Tate on drums. California Dreaming is an album whose time has arrived. In the '60s, jazz purists did not exactly appreciate jazz musicians who embraced pop music, but how times have changed! "California Dreaming" is a treat for music lovers.

George Benson is one of the modern era's truly great guitarists, who when he sticks to playing the guitar has few rivals. This is very much Wes Montgomery territory, but Benson is no Montgomery copyist; he creates complex tapestries with his rhythmic melody lines that give him a unique sound. Most of the tracks are covers, as was popular at the time, but the title track and "Low Down And Dirty" are written by Benson. Photographer and producer Esmond Edwards had worked at Prestige Records prior to taking over from Creed Taylor at Verve and he had an impressive list of credits to his name, including Miles Davis

Stan Getz Big Band Bossa Nova BACK TO BLACK 180 GRAM MASTERED AT ABBEY ROAD STUDIOS LP SERIES NOW OUT OF PRINT

Features:
• 180 Gram Vinyl LP
• Mastered at Abbey Road Studios
• Back To Black's First Jazz Range
• Legendary Verve Title

The Stan Getz LPs "Jazz Samba" for small ensemble and the classic Focus for big band were surprisingly big sellers - so it is no wonder that Verve producer Creed Taylor, himself an arranger and fan of light, airy strings, put the two components together.

The young Gary McFarland took melancholy Brazilian themes by Antonio Carlos Jobim, Joao Gilberto and Luiz Bonfa, wrote four songs himself and combined the lightfootedness of the bossa nova with the cool, toned-down emotions so typical for Stan Getz’s sound in the Sixties.

Verve gathered together the best musicians for the studio recording: Clark Terry, Bob Brookmeyer and Jim Hall were there to produce a carpet of sound over which Stan Getz could float. At the beginning of the Sixties Stan was, of course, at the very top of his form as far as sound perfection goes. After ‘apprenticeship’ with swing bands in the mid-Forties and ‘further training’ with classical small ensembles in the Fifties, he found his ideal source of the art of improvisation: Brazilian music with its songlike, simple themes, Latin-American rhythms, and melodic intervals. And these brought him acclaim, fame and money.

The original gatefold sleeve with a drawing by Olga Albizu was the object of many a collector’s desire. Now, 40 years later, both LP and cover are available once again in excellent sound and print quality.

Stan Getz (tenorsax); Luiz Bonfa (guitar); Antonio Carlos Jobim (guitar, piano); Maria Toldeo (vocals); George Duvivier, Don Payne, and Tommy Williams (bass); Paulo Ferreira, Dave Bailey, and Jose Carlos (drums)

Jimmy Smith The Cat...The Incredible Jimmy Smith BACK TO BLACK 180 GRAM MASTERED AT ABBEY ROAD STUDIOS LP SERIES. OUT OF PRINT

180 Gram Vinyl LP Reissue of 1964 Set Featuring Kenny Burrell, Grady Tate & Don Butterfield With Arrangements by Lalo Schifrin! Mastered at Abbey Road Studios!

The Incredible Jimmy Smith, that's what it says so confidently on the cover with the black cat! The law demands that what is promised must be delivered, and a record collector is no less demanding. The fact that Smith moved the Hammond organ from the dance floor to the jazz scene and upgraded it to become a full-fledged improvisation instrument is to be found in every good dictionary of music. But what resulted must be heard to be believed. No problem for our cat, crouched low and ready to pounce. She slinks along the Rhythm and Blues path, purrs through the night, steps nimbly to the St. Louis Blues, and gives the somewhat aged Basin Street a gentle blow with her paw. In the background is her powerful clan: Kenny Burrell with his firm grip, Don Butterfield with his strong tone, the thundering Grady Tate, and last but not least Lalo Schifrin, who watches over the haunt with a glinting eyes. And then of course there is the Verve gang who made a recording that is as black as the cat herself. Incredible!

Wes Montgomery & Wynton Kelley Trio Live Smokin' @ Half Note LIMITED EDITION SPEAKER CORNER AUDIOPHILE 180 GRAM PRESSING

An American jazz critic once said that Wes Montgomery was the "best thing that could happen to a guitar". Grand words, one might say quickly racking one's brains to come up with other great names. But after only a few minutes of listening to this live recording made in 1965 at the Half Note in New York, you will forget your brain-storming and concentrate on the unfused performance of this brilliant guitarist and the superb Wynton Kelly Trio. The very first number on this album, which despite its tongue-in-cheek title "No Blues" is full of the spirit of black jazz, makes plain Montgomery's unique talents. Highly-polished arching melodies, sharply-dissonant chordal runs and free improvisation displaying brilliant technique are the characteristics of this wizard of the "semi-acoustic" guitar. The quartet's thrilling mixture of Blues, Latin and Soul is as fresh, modern and compelling as it was 30 years ago. This is music which gets down to the nitty-gritty, is always cool and straight with no fuss or frills getting in the way: the message comes over clearly - and it makes the blood surge through one's veins! The almost tangible atmosphere of the recording venue and the pure sound quality further enhance this collector's item and guarantee a jazz happening of the very highest order.

WE ARE ALSO ADDING FOR YOUR TURNTABLE - ASTRUD GILBERTO LOOK TO THE RAINBOW 180 gram LP IN MINT OPEN CONDITION

180 Gram Vinyl! Brazilian Samba Bossa Nova! Beautiful Vocal Stylings! Pressed at Pallas in Germany!

Astrud Gilberto sings a mist of sound. Her voice is small and soft and very intimate. Although it has been described as "the sound of yearning innocence," it is also the sound of hushed intimacy. Astrud married Joao Gilberto in 1959 and emigrated to the U.S. in 1963. She burst into the limelight of American popular music when her vocal on the Stan Getz recording of The Girl From Ipanema captivated enough American ears to help make the record a best-seller, and Astrud a star. It was her first professional appearance as a vocalist. She has absolute command of bossa nova songs, and creates fresh and incisive renditions of American popular songs. This album is Astrud's third.

"This was a beautiful bossa nova record of Astrud Gilberto's vocal stylings...All the material here, with the exception of "Learn to Live Alone" and "Pretty Place," which were arranged by Al Cohn, were arranged by Gil Evans. With the exception of a Johnny Coles trumpet solo, the personnel was uncredited on this 1966 recording. Discographies have credited Bob Brookmeyer (valve trombone), Kenny Burrell (guitar), and Grady Tate (drums), but except for a few bars of sax, there was no solo indivdualism in this large Creed Taylor-produced orchestra.
