Modern Jazz Quartet Rare OZ URC LP The comedy unique cover art NM UJ499 Jazz
Rare OZ LP released in the 1960’s on Universal Record Club Records. Cat: UJ499. This album is in Mono. Features unique cover art.Over the next few weeks I will be listing some wonderful Jazz titles from a recently acquired Jazz collection. The original owner passed away back in 1985 and his sister decided to hold onto them for sentimental reasons. She had not touched or played them since then (1985!!). The records are in stunning condition for their age many, apart from a few light age spots on the covers, look like they walked off the shelf yesterday. I hope you enjoy viewing and possibly purchasing these wonderful jazz vinyl artifacts as much as i have in preparing them for sale and listening to them!!
This is the type of album that led many bop purists to criticize the Modern Jazz Quartet (and John Lewis in particular) for being overly influenced by Western classical music. This album has seven of Lewis' compositions, episodic works arranged in a suite that portrays characters from a fictional Italian comedy based in the 1500s. Singer Diahann Carroll guests fairly effectively on "La Cantatrice." Despite being tied to a story, there are some strong improvisations from pianist Lewis and vibraphonist Milt Jackson on this unusual material.
There are a few light spindle marks on labels. Record has a few light scuff marks that cause a few light crackles and is in Near Mint condition. Cover with back flaps has a few light age spots and tiny tears around edges and is in Excellent condition.
