Carmen McRae —
I'm Coming Home Again (Japanese pressing) ... LP Trio (Japan), 1978. Near Mint- 2LP ... $18.99
A great smooth soul session from Carmen McRae – an album that's not nearly as well known as her American sides of the 70s, but which is possibly even better overall!

(Japanese pressing, with obi! Cover has some very light wear, and a small bump in one corner – but this is a great copy overall.)
Joe Meek & The Blue Men —
I Hear A New World ... LP RPM (UK), Mid 60s. Near Mint- ... Just Sold Out!
Imagine if the Ventures were actually aliens – and you've only got part of the picture on this one!

Melanie —
Cri D'Amour ... LP Comet (France), 2022. Sealed ... $16.99
Not the Melanie of famous folk rock fame – but instead a cool contemporary artist from France, and one who's got this wonderfully laidback way of putting over a tune!

Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 —
Ye-Me-Le ... LP A&M, 1969. Very Good+ ... $11.99
Way past the hits, and into some really great territory – a move that makes the record one of our favorite Sergio Mendes sets for A&M! The sweeter bossa pop style here is undercut with a bit more influence from late 60s Brazilian grooves – some of the more baroque turns that Sergio' ... (Brazil) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Original stereo pressing. Cover has ring & edge wear, splitting on the upper spine.)
Sergio Mendes & Brasil 66 —
Stillness ... LP A&M, 1970. Near Mint- Gatefold ... $14.99
A real classic from Sergio Mendes – probably most famous for its funky bits!

Lloyd Miller/East West/Now Again, 1968. New Copy (reissue)... $22.99 25.98
Possibly the greatest album ever from the enigmatic Lloyd Miller – his legendary Oriental Jazz album from the late 60s, and a really wonderful blend of musical modes!

Children Of The Future (70s pressing) ... LP Capitol, 1968. Near Mint- ... $9.99

For The Roses ... LP Asylum, 1972. Very Good+ Gatefold ... $14.99
A sometimes-overlooked album in the career of Joni Mitchell – but a set that's every bit as great as the two huge hits that bracket it!

20 Granite Creek ... LP Reprise, 1971. Very Good+ ... Just Sold Out!
An overlooked nugget from Moby Grape – a set that was recorded at the group's home in the Bay Area – at an address that we're guessing was 20 Granite Creek!

Modern Jazz Quartet —
Space ... LP Apple, Late 60s. Good Gatefold ... $2.99
Beautifully spacey work from the Modern Jazz Quartet – a record that more than earns its enigmatic title!

Thelonious Monk With John Coltrane ... LP Jazzland, 1957/Early 60s. Near Mint- ... $24.99
A record that documents a meeting of two giants of modern jazz in the 50s – the angular genius Thelonious Monk, and the younger John Coltrane – a tenor player who was probably better-known for his work with Miles Davis during this period!
