Some words on this issue: BROWN, MARION: “Why Not” (ESP Disk/ Nippon Phonogram – BT-5009) (SEALED COPY). Original 1975 Japanese pressing complete with capsule obi & SEALED. Never surfaces in its original state sealed and with capsule obi. After an aborted and unreleased session for the tiny, short-lived Pixie label, Brown returned to the ESP studio with his working quartet on October 23, 1966 to wax Why Not?. Rashied Ali sat in the drum chair otherwise occupied by the excellent Bobby Kapp, while bassist Norris Sirone Jones and pianist Stanley Cowell rounded out the unit. The most immediately striking thing about Why Not? is its utter and complete dedication to both wistful, romantic lyricism and the edgy, insistent "cry." There are few recordings in this music, which balance hunger and fullness so well. The theme toys with an expansive, Coltrane-like keen and ebullient, skipping Latin rhythms, Brown switching between a liquid purr and clipped barks. Cowell is the first soloist on what was one of his earliest recordings, lushly orchestral arcs clambering a poised modal staircase as Sirone and Ali follow an independent yet wholly relational path. Brown's solo is playfully loquacious, tugging at notes with hiccups and flourishes until he reaches a long, palate-cleansing passage of high harmonic squeals. A classic.

New to the e-bay game but long experience in selling records so bid with confidence.

Our grading scale: Mint/ Near Mint/ Excellent/ VG++/. We don’t sell anything below VG++. VG++ grade is basically that the record has some scuffs and has wear. Excellent: record has hardly no visible defects and is preserved with care and attention, the condition most collectors take pride in to file away. Near Mint: a dash below mint, just perfect. Mint: like new.
