Capitol, 1976. Near Mint- ... $13.99
A stone 70s classic from Tavares – quite possibly the group's biggest album, and a masterpiece of LA vocal group soul! The album's biggest claim to fame is the massive hit "Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel", recorded by the group for this set, but blown to the heights through it's ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(In the embossed cover. Includes the printed inner sleeve. A nice copy!)
Columbia, 1977. Near Mint- ... $6.99
Disco 9000 is Johnnie Taylor's 3rd release for Columbia – a great batch of smooth soul tracks with a lot less of the "disco" that you'd expect from the title! Johnnie produced the session himself – and the album was recorded as a soundtrack (to a film that was later retitled ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(White label promo. Cover has a tracklist sticker and promo stamp.)
Columbia, 1976. Near Mint- ... $6.99
A landmark album from Johnnie Taylor – a set that not only gave his career a giant boost, but which also helped shift southern soul into hip new territory in the late 70s!

(Includes the printed inner sleeve. Cover has some wear and aging, unglued top seam, and is bent a bit at the sides.)
Chess, 1969. Very Good+ ... $29.99
Probably THE album you truly need to own from Koko Taylor – and a completely great one, recorded way before she'd become a cliched fixture paying the bills on the frat boy tourist blues scene! The tracks here were recorded over a few years in mid-to-late 60s Chicago – mostly with ... (Blues, Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Late 80s Original Chess Masters pressing.)
Ace (UK), Late 50s. Near Mint- ... $7.99
The Teen Queens were a hip R&B duo who deserve a lot more credit than their silly name might make you think. They had a style that was part raw R&B, and part 60s girl group, years before the girl group format was around long enough to become a cliche! LP, Vinyl record album
(Mid 80s issue. Cover has lightly bet corners and a small stain.)
Gee, 1956. Very Good+ ... $9.99
They may be Teenagers, but this is hardly teen pop – as the album's a key step in the direction towards soul music for the 60s – thanks to the mighty power of the tragic Frankie Lymon! There's a sense of darkness to the album right from the start – even in the hit that kicks ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Stereo 70s white label Gee/Roulette pressing. Cover has minimal wear.)
Gordy, 1973. Very Good ... $8.99
One of the last totally righteous albums by the Temptations – recorded at the end of their progressive run at Motown, and done with some really hard-hitting tunes and production from Norman Whitfield! Tracks step off with that beautiful mix of badass soul, heavy production, and soaring ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Vinyl has a slight warp, but plays fine. Includes the printed inner sleeve. Die-cut cover has minimal wear.)
Gordy, 1972. Near Mint- ... $16.99
The Temptations going in all directions – and all of them pretty darn groovy too!

(2023 RSD issue on Elemental.)
Motown, 1975. Very Good ... $2.99 4.99
A tightly funky set from The Temptations – a record that has the group still standing strong in the post-Norman Whitfield years – working here with producer Jeffrey Bowen in a groove that's almost got some P-Funk touches at times! Things are somewhat polished, but still in the best ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Original pressing in the die-cut cover. Includes the heavy inner sleeve. Cover has minimal wear, small notch on the flap.)
King, Late 50s. Very Good+ ... $79.99
Very early work from Joe Tex – recorded way before his boogie records of the 70s, and even his country soul classics of the 60s! Yet despite the age of these sides, the Joe Tex vocal approach is very firmly in place – that raspy mode that's undeniably human, and which might be rooted ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Black label pressing – in great shape! Cover has some light aging, and back has a small sticker – but this is a great copy overall.)
Westbound/Warner, 1977. Very Good+ ... $1.99
Mike's come a long way from his early soul days with Dennis Coffey – working here to lay down a set of spacious disco tunes with a dreamy finish – really stretching out with the same sort of glide you'd find in the best Philly club at the time! The record's actually quite strong on the ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Cover has light wear.)

Philadelphia International, 1975. Near Mint- ... $19.99
Seminal work by Three Degrees – stepping proudly here from their girl group roots, into a dramatic pre-disco mode that's clearly influenced by similar Philly work by First Choice – some of the finest material ever! The music is by MFSB, with arrangements by Philly maestros like Bobby ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Original Japanese pressing – ECPO-10-PH – with obi, lyric insert, and print with facsimile signatures. Cover is bent just a bit at the spine.)
Philadelphia International, 1975. Near Mint- ... $7.99
The Philly trio gets some great live work done in this tasty little set – hitting the stage with backings from Richard Barrett, and singing before a very enthusiastic crowd in the UK!

Warner, 1984. Near Mint- ... Just Sold Out!
Classic! The third LP from the Time, and last before Morris Day went off and started his solo career – though by this point Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis had departed the group. Nonetheless, the sound is still tight modern funk, with Jesse Johnson and crew keeping things in the great post-Prince ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Warner, 1981. Very Good+ ... $14.99
One of the two 80s masterpieces by this amazing Minneapolis group, before Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis left to change the face of commercial R&B! This first album and it's follow-up remain as a couple of the more enduring moments of slick, stylish American pop soul, and represent just a huge ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Midland, 1976. Near Mint- ... $13.99
A killer little soul group who recorded with John "Monster" Davis in the mid 70s – really soaring with a groove that rivals some of their bigger contemporaries on the east coast group scene!

(Original pressing. Cover has a promo stamp, light wear, and aging.)
Roadshow, 1979. Sealed ... $14.99 19.99
A sweet second set from Touch Of Class – a group who broke big in the indie underground of the 70s with their debut – and who still continue here in a great blend of upbeat rhythms and richer soul styles! Some numbers are clearly aimed at the dancefloor – as on their debut – ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Original pressing, still sealed. Shrinkwrap is cut at the bottom right corner in back where a promo stamp was applied to the cover.)
Warner, 1978. Near Mint- ... $14.99
A bit of a change for Allen Toussaint – the kind of an album that makes good use of all the connections he was making during the early 70s, when he was becoming the darling of the Warner Brothers scene in LA. Overall, Allen's getting pretty smooth by this point – so smooth that even ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Cover has a promo stamp, some ring impressions, edge wear, unglued bottom seam, and is lightly bent at the bottom left corner.)
Capitol, Early 60s. Very Good+ ... $4.99
Ed Townsend's best known as a famous songwriter and producer – whose work through the 60s and 70s made him more than a bit of green – but this early album has Ed trying his pipes as a male vocal lead, singing in a style that's smooth and mellow, a bit in the vein of Jesse Belvin, and ...
