ONE NIGHT STAND WITH THE BATTLE OF THE BANDS, CHARLIE BARNET VS. WOODY HERMAN, STAN KENTON AS REFEREE -- Joyce LP-1012
The great little (now-defunct) Joyce Record Publications produced a series of albums in the 1970s of rare, little-known sessions that somehow found their way onto two-track tape. This is one of them. It came about because on July 30, 1949, Charlie Barnet was performing at the Rendezvous Ballroom in Balboa, California, and Woody Herman was performing down the coast a bit at a club in Oceanside. On this night, they got together at the Rendezvous for a "Battle of the Bands," with Stan Kenton acting as referee. Maynard was in the Barnet band that night. The result is a memorable recording, with Barnet's band playing Bop City, Ill Wind, Bebop Spoken Here, and Claude Reigns, Herman's band playing 5 tunes of their own, and the two bands combined playing More Moon. If you're a serious Maynard Ferguson collector, this LP is a MUST for your collection.
COPY #1. The cover on this copy shows just a little surface wear. There's a little loose paper on the seam at top left. Both of these are very minor faults. Overall, the cover is at least NMINT-, although it was sold to me as NMINT, and I really couldn't fault the record dealer for that designation. The vinyl is clean and nice, likewise NMINT. Overall, this is a NMINT copy. Due to its rarity and desirability, $19.00.
COPY #2. The cover on this one has a little bit of residue from a label in the top left-hand corner, as well as very minimal toning around the edges of the cover. It's still NMINT-. The vinyl has a couple of very light scuffs, but they're minimal, and won't affect play. It's NMINT- to NMINT. Overall, this copy is NMINT- to NMINT. $17.00.
COPY #3. The cover on this one would be NMINT, but there's a 3/8" spot on the top seam where the cover paper has been removed. It's just on the spine, not the front or back cover, but it's noticeable, and reduces an otherwise outstanding cover to just EX. The vinyl is NMINT. So except for the spot in the spine, it's NMINT, but due to this small problem, I'm going to call this copy just EX++. Still, a very nice LP -- $12.00.
COPY #4. The cover on this copy is a super NMINT+, and is still in its original shrink wrap (although it's been opened). The vinyl rates a NMINT+, as well. This is a stunning, highly collectible, NMINT+ copy. $22.00.
COPY #5. The cover on this one shows a little surface and record ring wear, and there are a few small rubbed spots on the lower seam. I'd rate it as EX, but most dealers would call it EX+. The vinyl is NMINT- to NMINT. Overall, this copy is easily EX+. $10.00.
COPY #6. The cover on this one shows just a bit of surface wear, and there was a 3" seam split at upper right which I carefully repaired with transparent tape. The repair is nearly invisible. With these small flaws I'd rate this cover as EX+. The vinyl is NMINT+, and is possibly never-played. A super, NMINT- to NMINT copy, it's yours for $17.00.
CHARLIE BARNET AND HIS ORCHESTRA - "SOME LIKE IT HOT" -- Swing Era Records LP-1002
Here's a great re-issue album from the 1970s with MF playing with the Charlie Barnet Orchestra on just one track -- All the Things You Are!!! As you know, this is his most famous work with Barnet, and it's an absolute SCREAMER!!!!!! It was recorded 8/16/49. And, of course, there are 15 other tracks on this LP, as well, although they don't have Maynard on them. This LP has BLUE vinyl, highly sought-after by record collectors, and it's a very, very hard LP to find.
COPY #1. Just in, here's a very nice copy. The black cover does have some clear tape in the upper right and lower right corners, presumably to prevent seam splits. There's also a 1.5" seam crack at upper center. Otherwise, this is a very clean and nice cover. Even with the tape and seam crack, it still rates an EX. The vinyl is "blue wax," and it in NMINT condition. Overall, this copy is EX++. Yours for $8.00.
COPY #2. Just in, here's a super copy. The cover shows almost none of the typical record ring wear that's so prevalent on these. It's easily NMINT. The vinyl on this one is ultra clean on one side, and shows just a few very light surface scratches on the other. It's EX+. Overall, let's call this one NMINT-. It's yours for $9.00.
COPY #3. This one has a clean and nice cover. There's a quarter-size spot at upper left that's just fainly discolored from a removed price sticker, but it's subtle. There's a 3" seam crack at bottom center and a 3" seam split at upper right. Neither have been repaired, so the cover still looks super clean. On the back, an otherwise super clean surface is marred by three small spots of writing. Given the problems, what looks like a NMINT cover from the front is actually only EX-. The blue vinyl is a seldom-played NMINT. Overall, let's call this one EX+. It's yours for just $7.00.
CHARLIE BARNET AND HIS ORCHESTRA - "RHAPSODY IN BARNET" -- Swing Era Records LP-1019
Here's a great re-issue album from the 1970s with MF playing with the Charlie Barnet Orchestra on just two tracks -- Rhapsody in Blue and Cornacopia, both recorded in August 1949. There are 13 other tracks on the LP, but all those predate MF's involvement with the band. This is a particularly hard LP to find. Also, be aware that the cover paper is very porous and is uncoated, so they do tend to pick up quite a bit of grime over the years. Nevertheless, it's a great LP to have in your MF collection, and one that's quite hard to obtain.
COPY #1. The cover on this copy has some light brownish toning around the edges, a 1" spine crack at top center, and a little bit of record ring wear, mainly visible on the back. Otherwise, there's no real damage, and it rates an EX. The vinyl has a couple of very light scratches and surface scuffs visible. The do cause a little background noise in a couple of spots, but nothing to write home about. So the vinyl is EX- to EX. Overall, this one grades in the EX- to EX range. A nice, solid copy. $8.00.
COPY #2. Just in, the cover on this one has a few minor problems. There a 2" seam crack in the middle of the upper seam, two small abrasions on the spine, a 3/4" circular mark at upper left where a price sticker was removed (not torn, just very slightly discolored), a bit of very light toning, and on the back, someone wrote "B-25" in small letters. There's also a small ripped and disturbed place in the backing paper at bottom center. Due to all these little things, I'm going to call the cover just VG, although it looks better from the front. The vinyl has some scuffing to the label on Side 1, and I see one scuff mark on the disc. Otherwise, it's near new -- NMINT-. Overall, let's call this one EX- to EX. A solid, but somewhat flawed copy. It's $8.00.
CHARLIE BARNET AND HIS ORCHESTRA - SWINGIN' ON NOTHIN' -- Big Band Archives LP-1209
Here's a great re-issue album from the 1970s with MF playing with the Charlie Barnet Orchestra on just one track -- Lullaby of Birdland, recorded 11/54. Be aware that MF is on just this one track, but as far as I know, this is the only place to get a copy of this recording, except on the RCA Lullaby of Birdland compilation LP. If you want one of everything, then you definitely need this LP.
COPY #1. The cover on this copy is in SUPER condition! NMINT!!! The vinyl is clean and shiny -- NMINT, as well! Overall, this is a super copy, in NMINT condition. $15.00.
COPY #2. The cover on this copy is in SUPER condition! It's NMINT! The vinyl is clean and shiny -- really pristine -- NMINT+! The copy is NMINT to NMINT+ overall, $17.00.
COPY #3. The cover on this one has just a some very light toning around the edges, but it's minimal. It's probably one of the best covers available -- NMINT-. The vinyl looks like it might have been played one time. NMINT+. Overall, this one rates NMINT. It's $15.00.
CHARLIE BARNET AND HIS ORCHESTRA, CHARLIE BARNET IN DISCO ORDER, VOLUME 24 -- Ajaz Records AJAZ-273
Here's the great disco order LP with Barnet tunes from 7/10/52 through 12/20/54. Maynard plays on almost all of the tracks. And, for some reason, Volume 24 seems to be many times rarer than volumes 21 and 22. They seldom come on the market.
COPY #1. The cover on this one would easily be a pristine NMINT, but it's got a cut-out hole at upper right. This reduced the rating to just EX. The vinyl is almost certainly MINT, NEVER PLAYED. Due to the core hole, this copy is just $22.00.
VARIOUS ARTISTS, LULLABY OF BIRDLAND -- RCA Victor LPM-1146
Here's the historic Lullaby of Birdland LP from RCA. 12 different arrangements of the tune Lullaby of Birdland were recorded by 12 different groups, and wound up on this LP. The Charlie Barnet version dates to 11/29/54. Maynard ALSO plays with Milt Bernhart on this LP. The Bernhart version was recorded 3/6/55. So you get two MF tracks for the price of one. It lists for $50.00 in NMINT condition.
COPY #1. I just can't seem to keep these in stock lately. This is a very, very popular LP. The cover on this one has super clean and nice front paper. There's a minor bend at lower left, and I repaired a seam crack at bottom center. The spine is just beginning to crack at left center. Still, overall, this is a very clean and nice LP, and just looks sensational. It's EX+. The vinyl has few VERY light scuffs and surface scratches, but they don't significantly affect play. It's EX+ to NMINT-. Overall, let's call this one EX+ to EX++. A very nice, solid copy, that looks GREAT! Yours for $12.00.
COPY #2. The cover on this one has is relatively clean and nice, with just a little surface wear visible. On the back there's a silver-dollar-size water stain at upper left, and the top and bottom seams have been carefully repaired in a couple of places. Still, it's a very nice looking cover. I'd rate it as EX- to EX. The disc itself has clean and nice labels, and is easily EX. Overall, this copy is in the EX range. It's $9.00.
COPY #3. The cover on this one has clean and nice front paper. The seams and spine are intact -- very solid. The backing paper shows a bit of surface wear, and there's a neatly rubber-stamped name at top center. I'd rate this cover as EX+ to EX++. The vinyl has two light scratches, but not on the Barnet track. I'd rate the vinyl as EX. Overall, this one is in the EX+ range. A nice, solid copy, it's $11.00.
COPY #4. The cover on this one looks good from the front, with just a bit of general surface wear visible and a small rectangular discoloration at upper right where a price sticker once resided. The seam is cracked at upper right, but not yet split. One the back there's a little brownish toning around some of the edges. All these are fairly minor, but they add up to a reduction in grade to just EX-. The vinyl is a seldom-played NMINT-. Overall this one is EX to EX+. $10.00.
CHARLIE BARNET AND HIS ORCHESTRA - REDSKIN ROMP -- RCA Victor LPM-1091
Here's the original RCA recording (12/6 and 12/20/54, released 1955) of MF with the Charlie Barnet Orchestra on a number of swinging big band tracks. Maynard can be clearly heard blowing the roof off the studio on this recording. The cover art is by the famous jazz LP artist Jim Flora. Some folks collect these just because they have "Flora" covers. The cover is not exactly "politically correct." It has a number of Native Americans portrayed as cartoon figures playing various instruments. But the cover aside, it's one SWINGIN' big band LP. It lists for $50.00 in NMINT condition.
SORRY! NO COPIES AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME.

The cover art is just like the original, with the non-politically correct Native American cartoon depictions by artist Jim Flora.

SORRY! NO COPIES AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME.
CHARLIE BARNET AND HIS ORCHESTRA, DANCING PARTY -- Verve MGV 2027
Here's an extremely hard-to-find Charlie Barnet LP with MF. I seldom see a copy. MF plays on Blue Hound Bus Greys, Things Ain't What They Used to Be, Argo …, and Who's Your Hoosier, recorded 12/27/55. These come with both "Verve" and "MGM" on the label. The "Verve" label is the original 1956 release and books for $50.00 in my aging jazz guide (this is a VERY conservative price!). The "MGM" is a 1961 re-issue. Again, an extremely hard LP to find!
COPY #1. The cover on this one has super clean and nice front paper. The backing paper shows a bit of surface and ring wear, and the top seam is rough. I'd rate this cover as EX, even though it looks NMINT from the front. The vinyl is the original "Verve" pressing, and it's NMINT-. Overall, this copy is in the EX+ range. It's yours for $17.00.
COPY #2. Just in, the cover on this one is clean and nice, with just a bit of surface wear visible on the back side. There's also a corner bend at upper right. Still, it's a very nice looking cover, and rates an EX. The vinyl is clean and nice, and is somewhere in the EX++ to NMINT- range. Overall, let's call this copy EX+. And, this is the original Verve pressing, not the later MGM pressing. Yours for $15.00.
CHARLIE BARNET AND HIS ORCHESTRA, CHARLIE BARNET (U.K. RELEASE) -- World Record Club T303
Here's an extremely hard-to-find Charlie Barnet LP with MF. I seldom see a copy. MF plays on Blue Hound Bus Greys, Things Ain't What They Used to Be, Argo, and Who's Your Hoosier, and the discographical info on the back cover says these tracks were recorded in late 1954 (contrary to a 1955 date I've seen elsewhere). He also plays on the tracks Lumby, Blue Rose, Hear Me Talking to You, and Lemon Twist, recorded in Autumn, 1956. These are absolutely RARE LPs! Very, very hard to find!!!
COPY #1. The cover on this one is super clean and nice on the front. There are a couple of super small corner bends -- hardly worth mentioning. The back cover shows a little bit of wear. I'd rate this cover as EX to EX+. The vinyl has a few light scuffs that don't affect play. It's also EX to EX+. Overall, this one is EX to EX+. Quite hard to find, it's $22.00.
CHARLIE BARNET AND HIS ORCHESTRA, LONELY STREET -- Verve MGV-2040
Did you know that Maynard recorded with Charlie Barnet in 1956, and the tunes wound up on an LP called "Lonely Street?" Yes, it's true, and here it is. The original, which was issued in 1957, has "Verve Records, Inc." on the bottom of the label. It was also re-issued in 1961, and this version has "MGM Records" on the bottom of the label. Maynard is absolutely SCREAMING on the track "Lumby". This is a GREAT, GREAT LP!
COPY #1. On this one, the cover is still in the original shrink wrap, and it's NMINT. The vinyl, which is the original type with the Verve labels, might have been played once. It's a stunning NMINT+. Overall, this one is NMINT to NMINT+. $20.00.
