ITEM INFORMATION: THE GREATEST WEST MEETS EAST JAZZ ALBUM EVER! Rated 5 stars LP by All Music Jazz. The review states,

“By the time of this, Art Pepper's tenth recording as a leader he was making his individual voice on the alto saxophone leave the cozy confines of his heroes Charlie Parker and Lee Konitz. Joining the Miles Davis rhythm section of pianist Red Garland, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Philly Joe Jones made the transformation all that more illuminating. It's a classic east meets west, cool plus hot but never lukewarm combination that provides many bright moments for the quartet during this exceptional date from that great year in music, 1957. A bit of a flip, loosened but precise interpretation of the melody on ‘You'd Be So Nice to Come Home To’ gets the ball rolling, followed by a ‘Bags Groove’ parallel with ‘Red Pepper Blues’, and a delicate, atypical treatment of ‘Imagination’. A compositional collaboration of Pepper and Chambers on the quick ‘Waltz Me Blues’ and hard-edged, running-as-fast-as-he-can take of ‘Straight Life’ really sets the gears whirring. Philly Joe Jones is a great bop drummer, no doubt, one of the all-time greats with Kenny Clarke and Max Roach. His crisp Latin-to-swing pace for ‘Tin Tin Deo’ deserves notice, masterful in its creation and seamlessness. Pepper makes a typical ‘Star Eyes’ brighter, and he goes into a lower octave tone, more like a tenor, for ‘Birks Works’. It's clear he has heard his share of Stan Getz in this era. Though Art Pepper played with many a potent trio, this one inspires him to the maximum, and certainly makes for one of his most substantive recordings after his initial incarcerations, and before his second major slip into the deep abyss of drug addiction.”

I am a 30-year collector of great classical, jazz, soundtracks and rock records. I started in late 2008 with a sale of a limited number of the best items in my collections. This is my 12th sale in 2010. These records will be of the highest quality and desirability. Expect to bid on rare LP’s of Furtwangler, Bernard Herrmann, string and piano artists and jazz artists. Many fine TAS-listed or TAS-type audiophile records will be included as well. At this time I can not take wish-list items, but please add me to your favorites list for upcoming offerings.

GRADING: Sealed LP’s are noted in their description. I grade by both visual inspection and play. Mint is not used. Near Mint is my highest grade and should play problem free; VG++ should play problem free or with noted shortcomings noted in write-up.  VG+ is listed with any shortcomings noted in write-up. My description will be accurate. All items guaranteed, but I do not refund shipping costs.

I request that payment be made through PayPal only. Contact me via eBay mail if not possible. My items have no reserve. I ship worldwide and will combine winning bids to save on postage. I recommend all items that sell at $100.00 plus be shipped insured. Because of the value of some items, I may at my discretion require insurance. After bid closing, insurance amount will be calculated and then added to shipping fees reflecting in your invoice.

I have 100% positive feedback. Recent feedback entries left by LP Buyers state:

A $15.00 charge for 1st Class International Mail for 1 LP (except Canada which is $9.00 airmail). Each additional LP is an additional $2.00.  My parcels normally weigh more due to extra padding.

Parcels that weight more than 4 pounds must be sent by Priority Mail International, which is more expensive.
