Herbie Mann – Salute To The Flute (Vinyl LP, 1981, Columbia PC 36972)

Why This Record Matters
A mono remaster of Herbie Mann’s late-’50s session, highlighting his early straight-ahead jazz work before his later commercial peak. Backed by a strong lineup including Hank Jones and Oscar Pettiford, it captures a more traditional small-group sound.

Collector Note
1981 US Columbia Jazz Odyssey Series reissue (PC 36972). Not rare, but steady demand among jazz buyers looking for affordable, clean pressings of classic sessions.
