Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Not a book but a 10-inch, 33-1/3 rpm "Long Playing Microgroove" vinyl "compilation" record, Capitol H-325, near-mint vinyl in a very-good-plus cardboard jacket. In 1952 "jazz" was in transition out of the confines of the tightly scored "big bands," of course. This "sampler" offers the single cut Budo (Bud Powell-Miles Davis) by Miles Davis and his Orchestra (including Lee Konitz and Gerry Mulligan), the single cut "Oo-La-La" (Gillespie-Williams-Acea) by Dizzy Gillespie and his Orchestra (including John Coltrane and Paul Gonsalves), "Overtime" (Pete Rugolo) performed by Charlie Barnet and his Orchestra, Neal Hefti's "Opus 96" performed by Bill Harris and his Orchestra (gosh, what a lot of "orchestras"!) and some cuts by Woody Herman and Stan Kenton. "The music may sound dissonant to the casual listener on first hearing," warn the Capitol liner notes, "but additional plays reveal a wealth of modern invention, never before heard on record. This is tomorrow's music today!" Well, mostly. Drummer Shelly Manne manages to show up on three cuts, Max Roach on two. Catalogs $60; here reduced from $25.
