A record that was an instant classic from the moment it was first released – and a set that's still pretty darn pleasing all these many years later!

A live album from the mighty Frankie Beverly and Maze – and a set that's every bit as important as their studio classics for Capitol Records!

Be My Lover ... CD Capitol/PTG (Netherlands), 1984. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
O'Bryan's virtually a one man show here – handling vocals, keyboards, arrangements, and other instrumental bits too – but he also gets some great help on the album's lean arrangements, with just the right sort of funky touches on guitar, bass, and drums! The set starts out with a ... read more CD
O'Bryan —

Observations In Time – The Johnny Brantley/Capitol/Omnivore, Late 1960s. New Copy ... $14.99 16.98
A really unusual album from the mighty Ohio Players – material from their first full length set, and a record that's very different than their better-known work on Westbound and Mercury – but every bit as great! The band is tight and funky, but in a sort of deep soul 60s way – ... read more CD
Capitol/Elemental (France), 1966. New Copy Gatefold ... $13.99 18.99

Taste Of Honey ... CD Capitol/Universal (Japan), 1978. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
Probably the most successful album the Mizell Brothers ever produced, and a fine set of uptempo groovers from this female soul duet!

(Part of the Disco Fever 40 series!)
Willie Tee —
I'm Only A Man (LP sleeve edition with bonus track) ... CD Capitol/Get On Down, Late 60s. New Copy ... Out Of Stock

Lillo Thomas has a mighty nice vocal style here – one that's a bit high in the spectrum, and which works perfectly with the sweet keyboards in the grooves! Thomas takes the lyrics right up to the top of the mix – and floats them way high above the basslines, but still in a way that ... read more CD
Lillo Thomas —
Let Me Be Yours ... CD Capitol/PTG (Netherlands), 1983. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
A real 80s groover from Lillo Thomas – plenty of keyboards, snapping rhythms, and a sweetly gliding rhythm that beautifully supports Thomas' high-pitched vocals! The style owes a fair bit to territory first hit by Michael Jackson at the end of the 70s, but it still sounds surprisingly great ... read more CD
