Juan De La Cruz —
Himig Natin ... CD Vicor (Philippines), 1973. New Copy ...
$3.9914.99
Juan De La Cruz is a band, not a guy – and they're one of the hardest rocking combos of the far east in the early 70s! The trio's propelled strongly by some razor-sharp guitar from Wally Gonzales – a player who stands mightily with some of the biggest British names of a few years ... read moreCD
Juni & Too Much —
Too Much ... LP Atlantic/Lawson (Japan), 1971. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)...
$49.9958.99
One of the rarest Japanese hard rock albums of the 70s – and one of the heaviest too – a record that's definitely got plenty of the "too much" promised by the title and group! Juni Rush handles lead vocals, but the guitar work of Tutomu Ogawa may well be the equally strong ... (Japanese, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
One of Henry Kaiser's more widely-circulated albums of the 80s – with work from Joey Baron on drums, Hank Roberts on cello, David Balakrishnan on violin, and a host of other artists too! (Jazz, Rock)CD

$17.9919.99
The debut album from Meiko Kaji – an artist most folks knew first as an actress, but whose voice finds a wonderful setting in this record! There's a gentle current of funk to most tracks – stepping electric bass next to soaring strings, a bit of horns, and great use of koto from time ... (Japanese, Rock)read moreCD
An overlooked gem from Finnish hard rock powerhouse Kalavala – renamed here as an Orchestra, but still working with the lean, sharp sound of their previous two albums! There's a nice evolution here from the earlier sound of the Scandia scene – maybe a bit of northern inspiration thrown ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Just Sold Out!
Titles include "Three O'Clock Thrill", "Jumpin' Jack", "Forget Me Not", "Clickety Clack", "It's Just Terrible", and "Tonight You Belong TO Me" – 30 tracks total. CD
A wonderful little record that sounds nothing like Kansas City or something you might expect from a group with "jammers" in their name – as there's a sweet harmony style to the whole album that's a lot more like Cali work of the time! The trio harmonize together beautifully, and ... read moreCD
One of the few solo albums by Eric Kaz – a singer-songwriter who'd worked with Blues Magoos and American Flyer, always staying on the fringes of the mainstream, which is certainly where this album ended up. The set's got an honest, earthy sort of feel – produced by later Blue Note ... read moreCD
The only studio album ever recorded by this important acoustic group – a west coast bluegrass combo whose contributions to the scene were a key influence on the birth of country rock in Los Angeles!

Sure, the funk trio at the core are still in place ... (Deep Funk, Rock)read moreCD
A funky combo, but one with a real difference – as they seem to find whole new corners of the globe in which to work their magic – almost an imagined space of cultural criss-crossing, all set to some mighty funky bass and drums! The core element here is the guitar – which echoes ... (Deep Funk, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A trippier version of Khruangbin than we're used to – but that's maybe no surprise, given that the whole album's a dub version of the Con Todo El Mundo record – with all the best funky currents of that sweet set, and some wilder modes as well! Drums and bass really get a great workout ... (Deep Funk, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Includes bonus 7 inch of dub mixes by Scientist!)
A massive live album from this funky trio – a double-length set, and one that they get all to themselves after splitting a long run of live records with other artists during most of 2023! While we liked those records, we're very happy to have Khruangbin on their own – stretching out in ... (Deep Funk, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A set that's partly an album by massive funk trio Khruangbin, and partly a tribute to some of the musicians they worked with on a recent tour – as side one has the other performers in the lead, while Khruangbin gets plenty of instrumental space on the flipside! The group themselves turn in a ... (Deep Funk, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A mighty pairing of talents – indie legends Men I Trust and funk monsters Khruangbin – united here on one record, recorded on a very strong tour date from 2022!

A haunting Korean album that's very different than you might expect from the cover and the date – a set that has wonderful acoustic guitar work from Changwan Kim, who also sings amidst very echoey production that brings a very moody vibe to the record! (Global Grooves, Rock)LP, Vinyl record album
(Cover has a small bump in one corner, but is great overall.)
Kim Trio —
Riverside Rendezvous ... LP Anta/Cobra Rose (South Korea), Mid 70s. New Copy Gatefold ...
$39.9944.99
The Kim Trio have a very 70s-styled look on the cover, and come across with a very similar vibe on record – a groovy update of older Korean pop harmony modes, but served up with instrumentation that's heavy on keyboards, and almost gives the group a loungey sort of vibe! The three siblings ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(A great pressing – heavy vinyl, gatefold cover, notes in English, and obi!)
(Stereo pressing, still sealed, with a cutout hole and lightly bumped corners. Cover has a scrape across the top under the shrink. Shrinkwrap has a light square sticker spot.)
A set that begins with a fantastic solo album from Reg King – the singer best known as the lead vocalist in mod heroes The Action, stepping out here in a very different mode on his own! The record's got a headier vibe than before – songs that are more personal, most penned by King ... read moreCD
A killer collection of rare mid 50s Columbia Records singles by Sid King – a key figure in helping hillbilly music transition to rock and roll!

(Cover has one bumped corner, but is nice overall.)
One of those killer records from that 80s moment when Robert Fripp rebooted King Crimson with a lean lineup that had a really fantastic sound – with more guitars and vocals from Adrian Belew, a younger player who really had the same ear as Fripp for unusual sounds from guitars – ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
King Crimson —
Lizard ... LP Atlantic, 1970. Very Good+ Gatefold ...

King Diamond —
Eye ... Cassette Roadrunner, 1990. Used ...
$6.99
An overlooked gem from The Kinks – a set that's got all the wit of their late 60s material, a bit of the rootsy currents of Muswell Hillbillies, and a lot more bite than the group would have in some of their next few albums to come! Ray Davies' pen is razor-sharp, as is his vocal approach ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Orange label stereo pressing. Cover has light ringwear and some wear and fading at the spine.)
It's hard to go wrong with The Kinks at this point in their career – a time when even at their most basic, the group had something special that set them apart from most of their contemporaries!

Ray Davies is really coming into his own by the time of this third album by The Kinks – penning almost all the tunes in the set, and really starting to stretch out with some of his more unique ideas! The songs are already beginning to show that picture postcard side of British pop that was ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
One of the greatest albums from The Kinks – the kind of material that pulled them strongly past their bluesy, garagey roots – into a role that has them giving some of the clearest, keenest visions of 20th Century British society – with all of its joys and worries! The tunes here ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Original UK stereo pressing! Cover has some gloss separation at the spine, light stain at the bottom left corner, bent a bit at the bottom right corner at the front panel, and is bent with gloss separation at the bottom left corner in back.)
The second act of The Kinks' entry into the rock opera mode of the early 70s – and in some ways, a much more confident effort than the first! The second act of Preservation is much bleaker than the first in a number of ways – quite possibly the strongest because it seems that Ray ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(2023 pressing – on nice and heavy vinyl and replicating the original artwork!)
One of the oddest of the 70s concept albums by The Kinks – a set of tracks that takes Ray Davies and the band back to the school days of their youth – where they revisit frustrations, anger, and the disgrace in the title!

(Tan label pressing. Cover has light wear and a trace of a price sticker.)
One of the most successful of the later Kinks albums – thanks to the hit single "Come Dancing", which kind of tied together the group's later leanings with some of their sweeter, nostagic approaches from the 60s.
