Mercury, 1970. Very Good+ ... $4.99 6.99
Seminal work by one of our favorite soul singers of all time! Jerry first came to fame with The Impressions and on his own in the early 60s – singing dark moody easy tunes that well earned him the nickname of "Iceman". In the late 60s, though, he moved onto Mercury where he broke ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

ABC, 1964. Very Good+ ... $6.99 9.99
Easily one of the best Ray Charles albums on ABC – if not one of the best Ray Charles albums of all-time. Ray's in his C&W mode here, but it's a bit more restrained than on other LPs, and is replaced here by a sophisticated style that works perfectly with his heartbreaking voice. Proof ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Buddah, 1972. Very Good+ ... $6.99 9.99
Sweet duet soul produced and arranged by Jesse James, and featuring a number of songs written by him as well! The pair have a sweet sound that works well with the sing-song groove of the tunes – and titles include "Yaba Daba Do", "Indian Giver", "I Know I'm In ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

... LP, Vinyl record album
(70s issue.)
Fantasy, 1986. Near Mint- ... $9.99 14.99
One of the lesser known singles from this seminal Detroit techno group, with a groove that leans a bit more on the industrial dance side than their earlier electro numbers – with a hard heavy deep bass beat sound. 12-inch, Vinyl record
(In a Fantasy sleeve.)
RCA, 1964. Very Good- ... $5.99 7.99

Atco, 1968. Very Good+ ... $11.99 14.99
The late 60s comeback album for the Fireballs and vocalist Jimmy Gilmer – a record that found the driving early rock rhythms fitting in very well with the light sunshine and psychedelic pop of the late 60s! The sound on this record has little in common with the early rock instrumentals that ... (Rock, Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Test pressing with typed white label stickers. In a plain sleeve with an ink stamp, with minimal surface wear.)
Warner, 1976. Very Good+ ... $6.99 9.99
A strong move into disco by First Choice – the group whose earlier Philly work had an undeniable impact on the genre! The sound here is smoother and more mature than the group's first few albums – a bit more in the fuller mode of the disco years, less pop overall – and done with ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Columbia, 1962. Very Good+ ... $24.99 29.99
Pretty great stuff by Aretha – despite what the pro-Atlantic Records books say! The record is one of the first she cut with John Hammond at Columbia, and although it's not in the classic soul mode of the Atlantic sessions, it's a darn nice batch of bluesy jazz tracks that would still stand ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(70s stereo pressing – a nice copy!)
Atlantic, 1975. Very Good+ ... $14.99 19.99
A great little record from Aretha – and on that always seems to get overlooked! The album's arranged by Gene Page, and it's got a sweet slightly funky electric side that opens up a whole new side of Aretha's style. Includes the nice groover "Mr DJ (5 For The DJ)", plus the cuts ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

RCA (Japan), 1969. Very Good+ Gatefold ... $33.99 39.99
The debut album from Friends Of Distinction – a very groovy LA harmony vocal group who really transcended the worlds of pop and soul! The quartet were originally part of the earlier Rex Middletone's Hi Fi group – which split into both Friends Of Distinction, and 5th Dimension – ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Japanese quadraphonic pressing in the foil embossed cover, with insert. Cover has some spotty aging inside the gatefold.)
Tamla, 1966. Very Good+ ... $24.99 34.99
The moods of Marvin Gaye are many, even at this early point in his career – as the set has the young Marvin really taking off strongly – hitting hard on classic Motown groovers, but also showing a sensitive side at times too! The album kicks off with some killer rhythms on cuts like ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Stereo two globes pressing, with deep groove. Cover has some discoloration from age and light wear.)
Colpix, 1961. Near Mint- ... $2.99 4.99
Dick Gregory raps it proud and loud – in a set of recordings that features one side recorded on the east coast, and one on the west! Gregory's still very much a comedian at this point in his career, but already his work is peppered strongly with political elements – the kind of ... (Comedy, Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

A&M, 1972. Very Good+ ... $6.99 9.99
The beautiful first solo album by Lani Hall – recorded after years of work with Sergio Mendes in the Brasil 66 group – and done in a style that certainly reflects her great vocals with that ensemble, yet which also expands her sound tremendously! The set was arranged and produced by ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

ABC/Dot, 1976. Near Mint- ... $2.99 6.99
Todd, 1962. Very Good+ ... $2.99 11.99
A classic album from the early years of soul music – the only full length set ever served up by the great Joe Henderson – a vocalist with roots in the legendary Fairfield Four gospel group, but sounding equally great here in a secular mode! The arrangements are by Cliff Parham, and ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Big Tree, 1979. Near Mint- ... $9.99 14.99

(Original Japanese promo pressing, with obi and insert. Cover has light wear and a promo sticker.)
ABC, 1978. Very Good+ ... $11.99 14.99
Excellent early work from Al Hudson – a soulful talent who stood his own in the late 70s, forging an up-tempo funk sound that lived long past disco, and which was sort of a platform for groups of the 80s to build a new dancefloor sound. Hudson relied heavily on bass-y funk to hit his groove, ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Atco, 1967. Near Mint- ... $9.99 24.99
Although they were a UK soul act, Jimmy James and The Vagabonds were a perfect match for the Atlantic soul stable of the 60s. The group had a smooth group style that was partly uptown, partly northern soul – as clearly illustrated in this album, which is divided up into a "mood red: you ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

... LP, Vinyl record album
(Mid 70s issue.)
Marlin, 1979. Near Mint- ... $6.99 9.99
Maybe one of the most soul-based records ever from percussionist Ralph MacDonald – partly because Ralph does a bit of singing, in addition to playing the heavy congas on the cover! Yet the record's still got the core jazz vibe of his other sets from the late 70s – served up with an all- ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Epic, 1984. Near Mint- ... $9.99 11.99
A stunning solo effort – Teena's second on Epic, and proof that she could still put out the goods on her own!

(Includes the printed inner sleeve. Cover has a center split on the spine and light surface wear.)
Gordy, 1966. Very Good+ ... $9.99 24.99
One of Motown's best girl groups, caught here on a classic batch of album tracks with a great mix of material. Includes their classic reading of "Jimmy Mack", plus "I'll Follow You", "Let This Day Be", "I'm Ready For Love", "He Doesn't Love Her ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Original stereo pressing with deep groove. Cover has discoloration from age and light wear.)
Buddah, 1972. Very Good+ ... $14.99 19.99
The sensuous soul gem from Barbara Mason – a sweetly soulful groover all the way – and one of her strongest records! Give Me Your Love gets our love for a bunch of reasons, but especially for the title track – which is reworking of Curtis Mayfield's "Give Me Your Love" ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Includes the bonus photo and Buddah inner sleeve. Vinyl plays with a short & light click on the 2nd track on side 2.)
Radio Records, 1981. Near Mint- ... $4.99 9.99
Sweet modern southern soul by The Meadows – recorded at Muscle Shoals with a warm harmony sound that's better than you'd expect from the date.

Columbia, 1969. Near Mint- ... $6.99 9.99
Laura Nyro's second album in her legendary early run for Columbia Records – and an effort that's a bit more dramatic than the first! Laura's handling all arrangements herself this time, and they're conducted by Jimmy Haskell – but the overall sound is almost as spare as if Nyro were ...

Impulse, 1963. Near Mint- Gatefold ... $14.99 48.99
An early gem from singer Freda Payne – recorded back in the days when she was a jazz vocalist, years before her famous hits as a soul artist in the early 70s! The album's a darkly-tinged session with arrangements by Manny Albam – done in the late nite mode that you'd expect from the ... (Vocalists, Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

JVC (Japan), 1982/1983. Near Mint- ... $6.99 11.99
On The Line has a style that's a bit keyboard-heavy – in a way that seems to borrow from some of the 80s soundtrack work of the time, and which is clearly a nod to the success of the Lyle Mays/Pat Metheny sound that was breaking big on ECM. The move is a nice one for Lee on the best cuts ... (Jazz, Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

SOUL, 1969. Very Good+ ... $19.99 24.99
A tremendous little album from Jimmy Ruffin – as "ruff" as the title implies, with a much deeper groove than you might find from other Motown releases at the time! The style here is really wonderful – rich, heartfelt vocals from Jimmy that easily match the best of the Detroit ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Chess, 1970. Very Good+ ... $6.99 9.99
A full-blown, very righteous offering from Chess to the political cause of Operation Breadbasket! Tenorist Ben Branch leads the large gospel-tinged group – and sax player Gene Barge produces and plays, with a style that's very much in the Chess/Checker bag of the late 60s soul era.

Sound Of Gospel, 1988. Near Mint- ... $14.99 19.99
Groove Merchant, Early 70s. Very Good+ ... $1.99 3.99
A 70s set from the great Dakota Staton – but done with a lean, jazzy vibe that really gets back to the spirit of some of her earlier recordings! The group's a small combo, with the great Norman Simmons on piano – always a great accompanist for a jazz singer, and working here with ... (Vocalists, Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Delta, 1977. Near Mint- 2LP ... $84.99 99.99
Strange record, but surprisingly nice.

Midland, 1976. Near Mint- ... $11.99 13.99

Brunswick, 1976. Near Mint- ... $11.99 19.99
One of the last great albums that Jackie Wilson ever recorded – a sublime set of 70s soul that has some very different backings than before, all a perfect fit for those amazing Wilson vocals!

Elektra, 1988. Near Mint- ... $1.99 3.99
A standout solo moment for Yazz – the singer who first rose to fame as part of the Coldcut soundsystem, then really broke big at a point when UK soul was cracking the American mainstream!

Goldmine (UK), Late 60s. Near Mint- ... $14.99 24.99
Hammering stuff! This is one of the hardest of the Goldmine compilations – with a heavy-duty garagey mix of soul, R&B, and beat-heavy tunes that fit perfectly together.
