Kevin Bresnahan Posted April 14, 2020 Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 This is from that second super-duper deluxe box set that Blue Note put out a couple of years ago: https://www.discogs.com/Various-Spirit-Time/release/12972018?ev=rr It included "A set of 20 Topps Blue Note Trading Cards based on Topps’ 1959 Baseball Trading Cards featuring artists including Thelonious Monk, Horace Silver, Dexter Gordon, Lee Morgan, Grant Green, Hank Mobley, Freddie Hubbard, Dr. Lonnie Smith, Charles Lloyd, Robert Glasper, and more" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think what you will of Robert Glasper (my opinion is mixed), he and Charles Lloyd recorded for a whole different BN, which to me has basically nothing except a name and label design in common with the 1959 BN. Off the top of my head, Morgan, Dizzy Reece, Louis Smith, McLean, Donaldson, Sonny Red, Mobley, Clifford Jordan, Stanley Turrentine, Curtis Fuller, Bennie Green, Jimmy Smith, Horace Silver, Duke Pearson, Gene Harris. Sonny Clark, Freddie Redd, Horace Parlan, Paul Chambers, Art Taylor, Art Blakey, Kenny Burrell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave James Posted April 14, 2020 Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 (edited) Well-centered. Sharp corners. Good gloss. Grade: 9.0 - 9.5. NM. I wonder what the chances are of pulling a Freddie Hubbard rookie card? Edited April 14, 2020 by Dave James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
