I have that on cd but doesn't have that great cover. 

I have a couple of Poljazz LPs with very generic covers - I think one Michael Smith LP has the catalog number written by hand - but this is a cool one. A second pressing, I think.

Charlie Mariano - Modern Saxaphone (sic) Stylings (Imperial 10" LP). Really nice music from 1951 or so, with Herb Pomery and Jaki Byard. But the first sentence of the liner notes hurts: "Quality, quantity and youth in Jazz today is a rare commodity indeed."

Later, during side two: There's a no-nonsense directness to Byard's piano playing at this early stage that is in some ways more appealing to me than the eclectic, whole-history-of-jazz-in-every-solo approach he adopted later.

Masahiko Satoh/Gary Peacock/Masahiko Togashi "wave II" (paddlewheel, Japan). All compositions by Peacock; I've owned the "wave I" CD for many years and finally tracked down this second outing by this amazing trio.  Fantastic production too but that's not really a surprise.

Joe Henderson "Henderson's Habiliment" (Victor, Japan) the original gatefold Japanese issue of the more common Milestone release known as "live in Japan".  A stunning concert with Henderson in peak form!

Stan Kenton - A Presentaion of Progressive Jazz (cover) / A Concert in Progressive Jazz (labels) (Capitol). Whatever it's called, it's a little dated, but mostly pretty great.

Tabby Thomas - Rockin' With the Blues (Maison de Soul). The great Baton Rouge bluesman in 1984, with his son Chris Thomas King on guitar and Henry Gray on piano.
