The Ray Draper Quintet Featuring John Coltrane (New Jazz, 1958 First Mono Pressing)
A fantastic record from a massively underrated musician. Draper's life was ended short when, at 42 years of age, he was fatally shot by the leader of a gang whilst leaving a bank. The gang leader was just 13 years old.
I’m so glad I was able to grab a bunch of the 2014 Mono versions last year for a decent price, including this incredible sounding A Hard Day’s Night. Now if I could only find Please Please Me...
