A FEW OF THE ITEMS WE WANT...

THAD JONES Mad Thad (Very rare 1958 UK 6-track mono LP in the collectable Nixa Jazz Today series, which finds Thad breaking free from the Count Basie band for a superb session of stylishly cool bop. Quincy Jones, Elvin Jones, Frank Foster, Doug Watkins and many more perform, housed in a unique picture sleeve variant to the US issue. The flipback sleeve is in excellent condition, despite some peeling to the laminate at the opening edge. The vinyl is a beautiful near mint NJL13)

Tracklisting: Jumping For Jane Bird Song Mad Thad Cat Meets Chick Whisper Not Quiet Sip
THAD JONES / FRANK WESS / TEDDY CHARLES / MAL WALDRON / DOUG WATKINS / ELVIN JONES Olio (Rare 1957 UK 6-track LP by a Jazz 'supergroup' recorded by Rudy Van Gelder on February 16th that year, unique fully laminated flipback picture sleeve with sleeve notes by Ira Gitler on the reverse. The flimsy sleeve remains in remarkable condition with minimal shelfwear & just a little laminate lift at the spine and some minor age yellowing to show for its fifty five years. The vinyl too remains in excellent condition with very little evidence of play & still remains in the original poly inner. Complete & probably as good a copy as you are ever likely to find of this extremely rare LP!)

Tracklisting: Potpourri (Waldron) Blues Without Woe (Charles) Touché (Waldron) Dakar (Charles) Embraceable You (Gershwin) Hello Frisco (Charles)
THAD JONES The Magnificent Thad Jones (1983 Japanese promotional sample Toshiba remastered issue of the 1956 5-track mono LP, starring Billy Mitchell [tenor], Barry Harris [piano], Percy Heath [bass] and Max Roach [drums]. Includes the near 11-minutes of 'Thedia', a classic Jones original with all players trading a series of jawdropping solos. Promo-stickered picture sleeve factory SEALED from new in its custom stickered shrinkwrap BLP-1527)

Tracklisting: April In Paris Billie-Doo If I Love Again If Someone Had Told Me Thedia
THAD JONES SEXTET Motor City Scene (Rare 1959 French 4-track LP also featuring Billy Mitchell, Al Grey, Tommy Flanagan, Paul Chambers & Elvin Jones, front laminated pinched spine flipback picture sleeve with sleevenotes in French. Apart from a name stamped on the back & some light edge scuffing, the sleeve is in great condition with minimal shelfwear & the vinyl is superb with just a few light cosmetic marks to show for its forty five years - a great copy!
