Act One ... LP Vertigo, 1970. Very Good+ Gatefold ...
Out Of Stock
A jammingly progressive set from Beggars Opera – a short-lived British group with plenty of great organ work from Alan Park! Beggars Opera are poised halfway between the tighter modes of the beat group years and the more stretched out sound of the classic rock supergroups – and the ...

The third album by Black Sabbath – the album that put the heavy in metal – one of the most influential rock albums of all time and a record that finds Sabbath at absolute peak perfection!

Autobahn ... LP Vertigo, 1974. Very Good ...
$19.99
A groundbreaking record from Kraftwerk – a set that unified the 70s worlds of analogue electronics and prog rock – yet somehow managed to set the scene for a whole new sound to come!

(US spaceship label pressing with Masterdisk stamp. Cover has top seam wear, light surface wear.)
Ian Matthews got his start in Fairport Convention, but a record like this makes it clear that Matthews always needed to be a mainman of his own – as the record's got this focus, fullness, and lyrical quality that's only further by Ian's surprisingly strong role as a producer! There are a few ... (Rock) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(US swirl label pressing. Cover has light wear and a cutout hole.)

The key here is warmth – ... (Rock) read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Forget the silly cover image, because this is a gem of a record from Thin Lizzy – pre-Jailbreak, but a set with all the best elements of that classic firmly in place! The guitars are sublime – almost a chorus at times – and Phil Lynott's got that nasty sneer perfectly focused ... (Rock) read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Renegade ... LP Vertigo/Warner, 1981. Very Good+ ...
Out Of Stock
Late work by Thin Lizzy – but one of our favorite albums by the group! Somehow, this set manages to capture all the great magic that made us love Jailbreak so much – still hard rocking, but with a deft sense of time and chord change that also reminds us a lot of Steely Dan at their ...

$29.99
Very cool early work from Vangelis – an album recorded right after he left Aphrodite's Child, and with a sound that's not that different than the group's final album 666 – especially in the compelling sonic range that's used throughout! Some tracks are straight ahead, some are ... (Rock) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
