Description
ARTIST: Benny Carter
LABEL: Contemporary C 3555 (1958 Mono)
TITLE: Jazz Giant
CONDITION:
Sleeve: Gorgeous! Mint- w/ high original lamination gloss (the pic doesn't do it justice). The back cover is also a super clean Mint-. pretty amazing for a white cover slick of this age. All seams are sharp & intact w/ nice readable graphics
Record: Beautiful! Looks & plays Mint- except for just a touch of very light random background surface noise on Track 1, Side A. I play graded this entire LP and the rest plays Mint- w/ incredible sound presence! / VPI cleaned / By the spindle hole it looks like this LP may have been played carefully a few times.
COMMENTS: Absolutely beautiful original deep groove D4 / D2 stamper pressing of this fabulous LP. Features some superb solos from both Carter and Ben Webster on sax and some of the best playing I've ever heard from guitarist Barney Kessel
Personnel: Benny Carter (alto saxophone, trumpet); Ben Webster (tenor saxophone); Frank Rosolino (trombone); Andre Previn, Jimmy Rowles (piano); Barney Kessel (guitar); Leroy Vinnegar (bass); Shelly Manne (drums).
Track listing : 1. Old Fashioned Love... 2. I'm Coming Virginia... 3. A Walkin' Thing... 4. Blue Lou... 5. Ain't She Sweet... 6. How Can You Lose... 7. Blues My Naughty Sweetie Gives to Me...
Recorded in Los Angeles, California on June 11, July 22, October 7, 1957 and April 21, 1958.
NOTE: VPI cleaned means that this record was cleaned on a professional $500 cleaning machine, which does wonders for the playback of all vinyl records!
