Description

  • Artist & Title: Jack Costanzo - Mr. Bongo Has Brass 
  • Label & Cat #: 1956 Zephyr Records – ZP 12003 G
  • Vinyl Grade: Excellent (EX) play graded *very clean copy with superb playback
  • Cover Grade: Near Mint (NM) *beautiful jacket!
  • Notes:  Mr. Bongo Has Brass shows all the signs of the Kenton influence, but the solo Costanzo is free to crank up the bongos far beyond his "Bongo Riff" moment with Kenton. The result is similar to "crime jazz" -- tightly arranged but very dramatic and suspenseful with spectacular sound. "Barney Google" ("Baia" with absurd lyrics), "El Diablito," and the crime/film noir classic "Man with the Golden Arm" are the best cuts. Among the other interesting cuts are a Latinate treatment of "Bei Mir Bist du Schoen" and "Burley-Q Bongo," a burlesque (the music of jazzmen on hard times). It is a great introduction to the many facets of Mr. Bongo. (AllMusic)

Thank you for visiting dBeat Records !
GRADING STANDARDS: (M) Mint: Record and cover appear absolutely perfect in every way.  Grade is seldom used, even with sealed albums where the record itself can only be assumed to be mint.
(NM) Near Mint: Vinyl is shiny with no obvious signs of wear and plays perfectly with no audible imperfections. Cover is close to perfect with minor signs of wear or age just becoming evident. 
(EX or VG++) Excellent /Very Good ++: Record or jacket has a minimum of audible or visual imperfections. Vinyl has been handled and played very carefully. Light paper scuffs and/or spindle marks may be visible with no appreciable lessening in sound quality. Covers show very minor signs of handling and wear. 
(VG+) Very Good Plus: Record displays light scuffs, spindle marks or very light scratches that may create some noise disturbances, but don't affect one's overall listening experience. Jacket begins to show more prominent signs of storage wear and aging.
(VG) Very Good: Defects are more pronounced with visible signs of handling and playing. Surface noise is evident upon playing, especially during soft passages and a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Covers may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached, although none of the flaws should be overwhelming. 
(G) Good / (G+)Good Plus: Vinyl will have scratches and visible groove wear. Record plays without skipping, although noticeable surface noise or ticks will be heard. Jackets have even more pronounced defects such as seam splits, tape, writing, ring wear, water damage or other defects.
