Setting the stage:

I started to “build a record collection” of sorts about 20 years ago. I was motivated to buy vinyl because of a record player I received as a gift. What I quickly found out was that the vinyl records market is very dense and convoluted. Despite my love for music and all of its versatility, I didn’t have much direction. I simply bought what I liked to listen to, and I ended up with a “collection” of original records (i.e. first pressing) and reissues. Some purchases were of new records and some purchases were of used records, but for the last 20 years or so (subject to release date), all of the records I am offering have been in my possession. In total, I’ve accumulated just over 100 records for my “record collection”. Ultimately, these records have been collecting dust sitting on my shelves. I’ve opened and unwrapped some of the records and others are as is. Have I listened to them all? No way. I would estimate I’ve listened to about 25 of the records and some of them even a few times. Any of these records can become part of your collection now. I will be posting them in batches because compiling a discography, cataloging, and photographing all these records has been much more difficult than buying them and enjoying them. By now you can probably tell I’m not very technical with the record jargon. I’ve dedicated an immense amount of time to compiling the most accurate information to provide you about the records I am offering. I believe all of the records are in good condition at a minimum. I purchased them all from reputable record stores and not at garage sales or flea markets. That being said, I am happy to answer questions on the higher dollar items ($50+), I won’t take pictures and fulfill a bunch of random requests for the low dollar items, I just don’t have the bandwidth. In the end, I believe you will be very satisfied with your purchase. Please make sure and check out my other lots, there will certainly be something up your alley. I have priced all the items to reflect their current condition. If you disagree with my assessments please do not make the purchase. All sales items are final and I will not accept returns. Now onto the good stuff…

Diana Krall ️:

Diana Krall is one of the most celebrated jazz vocalists and pianists of her generation, renowned for her velvety contralto voice, elegant phrasing, and the ability to seamlessly blend classic jazz standards with her own emotive stylings. With multiple Grammy and Juno Awards to her name, she’s carved out a unique niche that fuses sophistication with soul. With roots in both classic jazz standards and contemporary interpretations, she bridges the gap between old-school cool and modern elegance. Whether interpreting Cole Porter or singing her own compositions, Krall brings a smoky, intimate energy that makes each performance feel personal and timeless. Known for her impeccable phrasing and tasteful arrangements, Krall has collaborated with legendary musicians like Tony Bennett and Elvis Costello (her husband). Whether in the studio or on stage, her performances exude intimacy, precision, and class, making her a staple on jazz charts and at festivals around the globe. Live in Paris captures her at the height of her powers in a setting that’s as romantic as her music.
