I like the sound on the six-eye Louis Armstrong Story Columbia LPs. They are not that hard to find.

This is a 2017 first release from the Stockpile, a mostly solo piano recording from August 25, 1972--An Intimate Piano Session (Storyville). It is sounding wonderful. https://www.amazon.com/Intimate-Piano-Session-Duke-Ellington/dp/B06X3VLD6G/ref=sr_1_1?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1510584237&sr=1-1&keywords=Duke+ellington+an+intimate+piano+session

Saturday night, Lucky Peterson at Red Hot and Blue, about a mile or so from my home. An outdoor venue on an unseasonably cold night, but a real B3 is present so after too long of a wait there is lots of tasty organ playing, as well as some rather fine guitar.

Bennie Green, Walkin' and Talkin' (Blue Note; Liberty stereo)
