·       ART PEPPER – ART PEPPER + ELEVEN: THE MODERN JAZZ CLASSICS – 1959 CONTEMPORARY RECORDS STEREO LP S-7568

·       GENUINE  U.S. PRESSING

·       VERY EARLY PRESSING CIRCA 1967-1970 ON GLOSSY, DARK GREEN (ALMOST BLACK) CONTEMPORARY LABEL WITH GOLD PRINT

·       A NOTE ON CONTEMPORARY PRESSINGS AND LABELS: CONTEMPORARY LABEL WAS NOTORIOUS FOR USING INCONSISTENT AND ERRATIC LABELING DURING THE 1960s. CERTAIN CONTEMPORARY LABELS (ON THE SAME TITLE!!!) OVERLAPPED WITH OTHER LABELS, SOME WERE IN USE ONLY BRIEFLY, SOME OVERLAPPED WITH CONTEMPORARY'S "STEREO" IMPRINT WHICH ISSUED CERTAIN TITLES ONLY IN STEREO,  SOME LABELS WERE INTRODUCED ONLY TO BE BRIEFLY AND TEMPORARILY PHASED OUT AND THEN RE--INTRODUCED, AND CONTEMPORARY LABEL COLOR, SHADE AND DEEP GROOVE VARIATIONS (NOT TO MENTION: COVER VARIATIONS) ARE EXCEPTIONALLY COMMON. BASED ON EVERYTHING WE SEE ON THIS PRESSING, WE BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A SECOND (MID-TO-LATE 1960'S PRESSING) OF THIS TITLE, DURING WHICH PERIOD CONTEMPORARY LP RELEASES WERE PRESSED BY CAPITOL RECORDS PRESSING FACILITY.  WE GUARANTEE THAT THIS IS NOT A 1970s or 1980s PRESSING.

·       THIS IS NOT AN IMPORT, RECORD CLUB RELEASE OR A COUNTERFEIT PRESSING.

·       ORIGINAL, THICK CARDBOARD COVER (AMERICAN STYLE)

·       COVER IS STILL IN ITS ORIGINAL SHRINK (CELLOPHANE) WRAP

·       CLEAN, WEAR-FREE LABELS

·       THICK, HEAVY VINYL PRESSING

·       MACHINE-STAMPED MATRIX NUMBER IN TRAIL-OFF VINYL (DEAD WAX) OF THE RECORD

This is a true classic. Altoist Art Pepper is joined by an 11-piece band playing Marty Paich arrangements of a dozen jazz standards from the bop and cool jazz era. Trumpeter Jack Sheldon has a few solos, but the focus is very much on the altoist who is in peak form for this period. The CD reissue adds two additional versions of "Walkin'" and one of "Donna Lee" to the original program. Throughout, Pepper sounds quite inspired by Paich's charts which feature the band as an active part of the music rather than just in the background. Highlights of this highly enjoyable set include "Move," "Four Brothers," "Shaw Nuff," "Anthropology," and "Donna Lee," but there is not a single throwaway track to be heard. Essential music for all serious jazz collections.

CONDITION:

RECORD

 (IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)          WE GRADE THE VINYL AS NEAR MINT. The original luster is very much intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.

(b)          The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

(c)           The record comes in the original stock inner sleeve.

(d)          Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!
