You’ll be happy to note — or at least I’m happy to note — that I actually did update the Jazz Collector Price Guide yesterday. The Guide was stuck for a long time at 4,971 records and is now at 5,240 records. There were a lot of interesting items that went into it yesterday, many for the $1,000 bin. I had forgotten about the Joe Henderson Page One that sold for $2,000 and the Donald Byrd Byrd in Hand that sold for more than $1,900. Well, they are now part of the permanent record, so to speak. Here are a few more that will eventually find their way.
Presenting Ernie Henry, Riverside 222. This was an original white label pressing. The record was in VG++ condition and the cove was similar. The price was $371.18. Those white label Riversides are a nice find, when you can find them.
Eric Dolphy in Europe, Debut 136. This was the original Danish pressing. The record and cover were both in M- condition. The price was $2,311.
And here’s one I’ve never seen before:
Toshiko Mariano and Her Trio, Lullabies for You, CBS 1185-JC. This apparently is a Japanese-only record from 1965. The record and the cover were in M- condition. The price was $365.
deepgroove1549 has had some great stuff. One nitpick – those NY Contemporary Five LPs weren’t originals; the first pressings came in wraparound Folkways-style jackets, very rare gems if you can find them.
The Dolphy is one of my favorite covers ever(including the Blue Note cataloque)-would love to find one I could afford!. I dig the leather outfit that he’s wearing,while the cars behind him affirm the early 60’s,euro vibe. “What say we hit the coffee shop…one more time?”
Indeed, it is beautiful!
a week ago we where talking here about the slow market… Joe henderson’s page one : $2000… wow!!
…but,.. blue bossa, i melt every time i listen to it…
The Page One was from a while ago. I just hadn’t put it into the Price Guide. It’s not a recent price.
Wow! that Dolphy cover is sharp, I am envious.
question for Clifford Allen: you refer to two NY Contemporary Five records which I can’t see in this post. Can you please help to find them?
I’ve got them both on Danish Sonet, if you’re talking about these, not Fontana.
I’ve had both with a soft cover but when I found, many years ago, Vol. one with a very hard cover I traded mine.
did I commit suicide?
thanks
Here’s one of the NYCF records he had (not OG):

So you would have an original Vol. 1.
