9	Stretching Out: Satin Doll/Lil' Darlin' (2002) more music like this by Red Garland When it comes to Red Garland's history as a recording artist, there is good news and bad news.

Now, the good news: Prestige and its various subsidiaries documented Garland extensively in the late '50s and early '60s. During ... see all copies from $6.94! new only from $6.94!
