Iron Butterfly —
In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida ... LP Atco, 1968. Near Mint- ... $14.99
The album that rocked a million dorm rooms back in the 60s – and for good reason, too – given that the title track is a side-long, totally jamming monster – the kind of track that was really revolutionary at the time, and which still has a hell of an impact all these many years ...

Isley Brothers —
Go All The Way ... LP T Neck, 1980. Very Good+ Gatefold ... $4.99
It's the end of the 70s, and the Isleys are still going strong – keeping it real by dropping some of the fake funk of a few years before, and going for a smooth soul sound that would be one of their biggest strengths during the early 80s. This sound can be heard to perfection on the tracks ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Jackie & Roy —
Free & Easy ... LP ABC, 1957. Very Good+ ... $4.99
One of the grooviest records ever by the wonderful vocal team of Jackie & Roy – a sweetly swinging 50s session, with great LA jazz backings from the orchestra of Bill Holman! There's a breezy vibe to the whole thing that's years ahead of its time – not pop harmony vocals, but an ... (Vocalists) read more LP, Vinyl record album

I Don't Want To Cry ... LP Wand, 1961. Very Good ... $24.99
A real landmark from soul singer Chuck Jackson – part of a unique wave of male vocalists who really took the music to new heights in the 60s! Jackson's got this way of balancing heartbreaking emotion with masculine control – summed up perfectly in the album's title track, then carried ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Night & Day ... LP A&M, 1982. Very Good+ Gatefold ... $5.99
A heck of a great record – and we don't mind saying it!

Milt Jackson —
Just The Way It Had to Be ... LP Impulse/ABC, 1973. Near Mint- Gatefold ... Just Sold Out!
Way nicer than some of Milt's earlier work – and one of the gems he recorded with bassist Ray Brown during the late 60s. The group's got a tight soul jazz stepping groove – with Monty Alexander on piano, comping along right over Ray's warm basslines in a very tasty way. Teddy Edwards ...

Awakening (180 gram pressing) ... LP Impulse, 1970. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... $27.99 29.99
A mindblowing album from Ahmad Jamal – a fantastic start to the 70s, and a set of music that shows just how far the pianist had come in just a few short years!

Keith Jarrett —
My Song ... LP ECM, 1978. Near Mint- ... $8.99

Jerusalem —
Jerusalem ... LP Deram/Lion, 1972. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... $22.99 26.99
A record with a much harder edge than you'd expect from the cover – not the ancient vibe of a medieval crusade, or the religiosity in the title – and instead this searing entry to the hard rock underground at the time! The group have a really heavy Black Sabbath sort of sound – ... (Rock) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Elvin Jones Music Machine 2 (45 rpm pressing) ... LP Mark Levinson (Japan), 1978. Near Mint- ... Just Sold Out!
Amazing pressing of this one – plays at 45 rpm, and comes in a very special package – plastic heavy sleeve, with a special insert for the record! A bit mellower than some of Jones' 70s recordings, but in a great way – one that lets sax players Frank Foster and Pat LaBarbera weave ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

One of the rarest Roland Kirk albums – and a great one!
