For the Price Guide: Webster Young, Trane, Hank

We haven’t been keeping up with the Jazz Collector Price Guide as often as we’d like, but we have a few items we’ve been watching that we’ll enter this weekend. If we get moving, we could get up to 4,000 records into the database within the next couple of weeks, which would be something of a milestone. Anyway, here are a few we’ve been watching:

Webster Young, For Lady, Prestige 7106. I’ve always loved this record, some great tenor playing by Paul Quinichette. This one was in VG+ condition, both record and cover, and sold for $296.

John Coltrane, Ballads, Impulse 32. This was an original mono pressing with the orange label and the gatefold cover. It was in M- condition, both record and cover. It sold for $113.50.

Hank Mobley, Roll Call, Blue Note 4058. This was a nice original pressing with the West

63rd Street address. The record was M- and the cover was VG++. The price was $677.

Grant Green, Green Street, Blue Note 4071. This was a New York USA pressing. The record was M- and the cover was VG+. The price was $304. I have a question on this one: I know that 4071 was right at the cusp of when Blue Note switched from the West 63rd Street address to New York USA. Does anything know whether this record was issued with a West 63rd Street address? If you have the answer, just post it as a comment here. Thanks.

  • I don’t want to be the narrow minded guy, but i ‘ve never seen a 4071 with a W63rd label. I don’t think it was ever issued so. same as 4077. Never seen one with W63rd adress. Maybe some other collectors coult tell us better
