ART PEPPER QUARTET
MODERN ART
INTRO ILP-606 DEEP GROOVE, FLAT EDGE ORIGINAL
ART IS JOINED HERE BY RUSS FREEMAN, PIANO; CHUCK FLORES, DRUMS; AND BEN TUCKER, BASS. TRACKS WERE RECORDED IN DECEMBER, 1956 AND JANUARY, 1957. INTRO WAS A LITTLE-USED SUBSIDIARY OF ALADDIN RECORDS. THEY RELEASED TWO 10" LP'S IN 1952, AND THEN FOUR 12" LP'S IN 1957. OF THE FOUR LP'S IN 1957, TWO WERE OF LESTER YOUNG MATERIAL (MOSTLY) ALREADY RELEASED ON ALADDIN, AND THE 4TH LP WAS DANCE MUSIC FOR THE ARTHUR MURRAY STUDIOS. THE 1957 ART PEPPER LP IS THE ONLY INTRO 12" LP THAT CONTAINS ONLY UNRELEASED JAZZ.
THE RECORD HAS MOST OF ITS ORIGINAL SHINE, WITH JUST A COUPLE OF MINOR, HAIR-LINE MARKS THAT DO NOT AFFECT PLAY. THE COVER IS SOLID, WITH NO SEAM-SPLITS, AND JUST THE BEGINNING OF RING-WEAR ON THE BOTTOM OF THE COVER. I'D GRADE IT AS A VERY STRONG VG+.
