Help Me Get Rid of My LP Boxes Part TWAAAAA

[Dan Gould]

Nine boxes to go and I still owe on that ridiculous Paypal dispute. As before, grading is cover/vinyl; there is a $2 charge per LP box unless enough is ordered that I have to buy a Mosaic-size 13X13X4 box in which case the cost is $3. Shipping at cost.

Sale is subject to end at any time, specifically the moment that I run out of LP boxes to ship the LPs, so act now if there is something of interest at these prices.

Let's start with the following "nicer" LPs, reduced in price to just $5 a piece.

SONNY STITT, THE BUBBA'S SESSIONS (ATLAS JAPAN)

VG+ (slight browning on the back, no other flaw) / NM

Lockjaw/Sweets and Eddie Higgins in the group

COUNT BASIE STORY (ROULETTE)

Box set with a bust of Basie on top of a piano - its the Atomic group playing the 30s tunes. Two LPs / great Mosaic style booklet / box is NM - vinyl is VG+

JIMMY RUSHING, IF THIS AIN'T THE BLUES (VANGUARD)

VG (unobtrusive tape on one seam, tape with letter "R" on front, bit of edgewear to spine - all in all still a nice cover) / VG+

LISTEN TO THE BLUES WITH JIMMY RUSHING (JAZZTONE)

VG+ (browning on back, intact seams but a bit of edge wear) / VG+

DON PATTERSON, OPUS DE DON (PRESTIGE)

VG / VG to VG- and probably rougher on Side 2

BILLY LARKIN & THE DELEGATES FEATURING CLIFFORD SCOTT, BLUE LIGHTS (AURA)

VG / VG or a bit better vinyl (scuffs are light)

paper peeling on front, stain on back

BARBARA DANE, LIVIN WITH THE BLUES (DOT)

VG+ / VG+

Earl Hines, Benny Carter (only LP in which he plays trumpet exclusively!) and Plas Johnson lead small group accompaniment.

RON FEUER, HAMMOND CHEESE (DEL-FI)

VG+ / VG+

Feuer was a forgotten organist who got Frank Rosolino, Bill Perkins, Paul Moer, Jimmy Bond and Billy Higgins (here Billy Wiggins) to back him up on a label not exactly known for jazz. WTF? And the album has a huge block of cheese pictured in front of his Hammond organ. Double WTF? Definitely interesting to hear.

For the remaining LPs, originally $3-$5, now $2 each unless marked $3.

SONNY STITT/ZOOT SIMS, INTERACTION (CHESS JAZZ MASTERS SERIES)

UP in hopes that, in addition to Stefan, someone will nab some more of these.

And, to add a few blues CDs. All in excellent/NM condition, prices include Media Mail in the U.S.

Battle of Hastings Street (Ace)

Yet another great Ace compilation, focusing on music recorded by Joe Von Battle that documented the late 40s - early 50s Detroit blues/R&B scene.

$10

John Lee Hooker, Rock with Me (Acrobat)

According to the notes, "half of the disc consists of a session, thought to have been recorded in 1973, that doesn't appear in any of the Hooker discographies." Included is the previously never released full 18 1/2 minute long performance of "I Hated the Day I Was Born".

$8

Earl Hooker, There's a Fungus Among Us

(1999 issue of recordings from 1964-67)
