Unique (Germany), 1950s/1960s/1970s. New Copy
A killer second volume in the This Is DJ's Choice series from Unique Germany -- stretching back to the 50s for a raw & rumbling set of deep rare r&b, jumping blues, and rollicking rockabilly -- floor shaking numbers selected by Keb Darge & Lucinda Slim! The (mostly) wayback approach is ...

Vampi Soul (Spain), 1960s/Early 70s. New Copy 2LP Gatefold
The title's no lie, as the set's definitely an insanely complete collection of Peruvian grooves from the 60s and 70s -- a massive mix of music that includes bits of Latin funk, psyche, and garage -- plus lots and lots of groovy bits in between! We're not sure what was in the water down in Peru ...
cover art  
Hitland (Italy), 1970s. New Copy
Nude women on the front, and some great grooves on the set! The collection is a long-awaited addition to the Mood Mosaic series -- one that follows the previous volumes' style of funky grooves, but which also presents some of the cuts in edits that really extend their funkiest elements! The new ...
cover art  
Soul Jazz (UK), Late 60s/1970s. New Copy 2LP
Possibly the best-ever collection of blacksploitation grooves we've ever seen -- a really comprehensive package that not only manages to cover the classics, but which also digs deep enough to come up with lots of fresh bits too! The set really sets a new level for the Soul Jazz label -- and is ...

Secret Stash, 1970s. New Copy
The funkiest, grooviest batch of 70s Porno Grooves we've ever heard -- a huge leap up from the stereotypical bomp chicka wow wow exploitation-by-numbers sounds of the era -- really fantastic stuff culled from the 70s adult films library of Fantasy Productions! Not to be confused with the legendary ...
cover art  
Vampi Soul (Spain), Late 60s/Early 70s. New Copy 2LP Gatefold
Hard hitting Spanish funk, soul, r&b and moddish gems - the second volume of Sensacional Soul from the late 60s and into early 70s, even better than the first volume -- and a treasure from the folks at Vampi Soul! The Spanish soul sound here is rugged and raw, usually with furious drums, ...
cover art  
Light In The Attic, Mid 60s/Mid 70s. New Copy 2LP Gatefold
Funk from Seattle? Hardly seems likely -- but prepare to be amazed! The funky reissuers at Light In The Attic, in collaboration with Mr Supreme, have unearthed a treasure trove of rare singles and groovers for the set -- all obscure local recordings from the Emerald City scene, most of which ...
cover art  
Strut (UK), 1970s. New Copy 2LP
Heavy funk from 70s Brazil -- and a collection that digs even deeper that the legendary first Black Rio volume! These tunes are all Brazilian in origin, but draw plenty on American funk and soul of the 70s -- not just rhythms, but also instrumentation, vocals, and production styles too -- a cool ...
cover art  
Stone (Italy), Early 70s/1997. New Copy 2LP
Second volume in the great Mood Mosaic series, and even funkier than the first one! The focus here is on funky stuff with a soundtracky feel, and the list includes some remakes -- like Henry Mancini's "Streets of San Francisco" and Bobby Forrester's "Sanford & Son" -- plus ...
cover art  
Soul Jazz (UK), 1960s/1970s. New Copy 3LP
One of the best compilations of New Orleans funk we've ever seen! Sure, the reissue market is always filled with stuff from the Crescent City -- but so many New Orleans compilations are cheapo knock-offs, designed to cash in on the drunk Jazz & Heritage crowd, or they're simplistic sets with ...
cover art  
Partners In Crime (Italy), 2000. New Copy 2LP
Amazing! This is a perfectly-constructed compilation of funky abstract downtempo grooves -- in a style that evokes the classic work of David Axelrod, and a million lost 70s soundtrack composers! The vibe is very serious -- with complex jazzy grooves shifting slowly about, but always staying ...
cover art  
BGP (UK), Early 70s. New Copy
Massive set of funky instrumental tracks recorded for the legendary Eastbound label -- the short-lived jazz/funk imprint of Westbound. After Bob Porter, the producer who made the great funky records at Prestige, left that label, he moved over to Eastbound to continue his masterful work. This 8 ...
cover art  
BGP (UK), Late 60s/1970s. New Copy 2LP
Heavy heavy funk from the Louisiana scene of the late 60s and 1970s -- and a great collection that really gets past the dominance of the New Orleans sound! The set moves way past the Crescent City to uncover a wealth of great bits recorded in smaller studios located in Shreveport, Lake Charles, ...
cover art  
Loose Jointz, 1960s/1970s. New Copy
LP...$6.99 12.98
A cool collection of funk, soul, and jazz numbers -- ostensibly put together by Ricky Powell! The package has little of the Latin you might expect from the title -- but more than makes up for it with cuts that include "You Follow Me" by James Moody, "Down Home Funk" by Richard ...
cover art  
Jazzman (UK), 1960s/1970s. New Copy 2LP
A second great serving of all-female funk -- and a collection that's arguably better than the now-legendary first volume in the series! Ian Wright's definitely outdone himself here -- and the selection of work here is really really wonderful -- with hardly any familiar names at all, save for a few ...
cover art  
Numero, Late 60s/Early 70s. New Copy 2LP Gatefold
Funky soul from Witchita, Kansas -- an unlikely locale, but home to some really great music -- courtesy of the Smart brothers, and their ultra-hip club! This wonderful entry in the Eccentric Soul series from Numero really brings that lost scene to life -- telling the tale of the brothers, their ...
cover art  
Numero, Early 80s. New Copy 3LP & CD
Not much of a cover photo, but one of the most amazing collections so far from the Numero Group -- a richly archival project that finally brings to light the lost efforts of the short lived Tap Records label! Tap was the brainchild of Jeremiah Yisrael -- an ambitious producer, and legendary ...
cover art  
Easy Tempo (Italy), Late 60s/Early 70s. New Copy 2LP
This great series keeps on redefining itself! While previous volumes have focused on funky, jazzy, and Latiny cuts -- this fab 8th volume features a beautiful blend of tracks with a spare easy feel, and an exploration into the Italian minimalist groove -- that ethereal, almost otherwordly style ...
cover art  
Easy Tempo (Italy), Late 60s/Early 70s. New Copy 2LP
The Easy Tempo groove is wider than ever here -- still plenty funky, but also jazzy and groovy too -- with some mod 60s influences filtering into the mix, and even a bit of vocals too! As always, the style is heavy on Italian soundtrack modes -- that great blend of bossa, jazz, and other elements ...
cover art  
Easy Tempo (Italy), Early 70s. New Copy 2LP
Slammin's a definite good choice for the title of this one -- as this 5th entry in the Easy Tempo series seems even funkier than the other volumes -- a set that's got plenty of full-on grooves, hand-picked from the genius Italian soundtrack years of the 60s and 70s! If you're looking for a place ...
cover art  
Twistin Rumble, 1960s. New Copy
Rough and raw grooves -- way more than you might guess from the "twist" reference in the title! The sound here is more R&B than anything else -- lots of heavy drums, honking sax, burning organ, and riffing guitar -- but there's also some echoes of Latin rhythms, rockabilly raunch, ...
cover art  
Honest Jons (UK), 1960s/Early 70s. New Copy 2LP Gatefold
Amazing Latin grooves from the New York scene of the 60s -- and a set that goes way past the obvious to collect tracks from a range of different labels! Unlike other collections of Latin Soul and boogaloo, which are always heavy on entries from the Fania catalog, this set features much more ...
cover art  
Obsessive (UK), Late 60s/1970s/Early 80s. New Copy 2LP
LP...$8.99 29.98
The roots of rap -- pulled from an assortment of classic funk and soul tunes, and mixed in with a bit of old school hip hop as well! The title and look of the package are a bit hokey, but the music's totally great -- an all-essential assortment of tunes that includes "Is This The Future" ...
cover art  
Learning, 1998. New Copy
Nicely packaged compilation that includes a whole batch of funky rare tracks that we rarely see, or which are on LPs that don't have that many other good tracks. Cuts include "I Want A Lot" by Sylvester Jackson, "Going Uptown" by Unit 8, "Jajecznica" by Bemibem, " ...
cover art  
BBE (UK), 1997. New Copy 2LP
LP...$9.99 22.98
Ok, so there's already been a few comps of stuff off the Muse label in the past few years, but they've been kind of weak, and haven't really gotten to the good stuff on the label. Now, the great folks at BBE (fast becoming the best compilation label out there) have sorted through the catalog and ...

Shades Of Brown
JX (UK), Late 60s/1970s. New Copy
LP...$5.99 12.98
Funky covers of James Brown tunes -- with more than a few that we've never heard before! Sure, James was funky in his own right -- but he was also an inspiration for countless others, as you'll hear on this great set of funky covers from very obscure sources. Titles include "My Thing" ...
cover art  
Street Beat, 1970s/1980s. New Copy 2LP (reissue)
LP...$6.99 12.98
Does this series ever miss? We think not -- and we'll be honest in saying that when this classic volume 5 came out, it was one of the first time we'd ever heard most of these funky gems -- and it's still one of the few places you can get them all together sounding so well! 7 tracks, "Shifting ...
cover art  
Street Beat, 1970s/1980s. New Copy 2LP (reissue)
LP...$6.99 10.98
The 9th volume in this legendary series -- and easy one of our favorite of all of them, given the wide range and expansive approach to the tunes on the set! The groove here goes way past simple old school funk, and begins to show the changes in breaks used back in the mid 80s -- not just straight ...
cover art  
Street Beat, 1970s/1980s. New Copy 2LP (reissue)
LP...$6.99 12.98
Make your set complete! Almost halfway through this 25 volume series of now classic breaks, beats and just plain old funky jams! This one has the skull on the cover wearing a big apple and features 8 tracks: Junie "Granny's Funky Rolls Royce", The Mohawks "The Champ", T-Connec ...
cover art  
Street Beat, 1970s/1980s. New Copy 2LP (reissue)
LP...$6.99 10.98
Burning breaks and beats like a whole car end-to-end! Stanley Turrentine's "Sister Sanctified" is the only edited track on this set, which also includes JJ Johnson's "Willie Chase" from the Willie Dynamite Soundtrack, Kid Dynamite's "Uphill Peace Of Mind", Ralph ...
cover art  
Street Beat, 1970s/1980s. New Copy 2LP (reissue)
LP...$6.99 12.98
One of the best of the early Ultimate B & B compilations, and one of the first to become unavailable, reissued and finally available after a long, long absence, unlike many of the other fine volumes in this classic series. 8 tracks, including a few with the re-edits where the break's extended: ...
cover art  
Street Beat, 1970s/1980s. New Copy 2LP (reissue)
LP...$6.99 14.98
Twentieth volume in this long running classic series of comps, one that we know will never go out of style, not just because the tracks are an incredible collection of funky originals and break laden numbers, but because they've inspired kids from Munich to Montana to hit the wheels of steel! This ...
cover art  
P&P, New Copy 2LP
Few folks might feel confident to lay claim to being the "master of the masterpiece" -- but given the mighty talents of Patrick Adams, the title is certainly well put! Adams has a legacy that's mighty wide in soul music -- from group recordings of the late 60s, to harmony soul of the ...
cover art  
Blue Note, 1960s/1970s/2005. New Copy 2LP Gatefold
If there's anyone we'd trust with a trip through the Blue Note catalog, it's Jazzanova -- as the group have been a key force in the jazz-inspired sound of the global dancefloor for many years! This set's the 4th in Blue Note's "Trip" series -- and it may well be the best, as Jazzanova ...
cover art  
Play Time (France), 1970s. New Copy
LP...$7.99 12.98
This series keeps on going strong -- with a brilliant batch of funky tunes that you'll be hard pressed to find elsewhere! Funky jazz is the operative term here, but there's also a bit of soul -- and the set's got a focus on those break-heavy cuts that used to show up years back on dodgy white ...
cover art  
Obsessive (UK), 2003. New Copy 2LP
LP...$7.99 29.98
One of the most compelling titles in the Abstract Funk Theory series -- a really mad blend of tunes from a variety of sources, stepping together at a level that shouldn't work, but does -- thanks to some very careful selection and just the right track placement! LP version features 8 tracks -- ...
cover art  
Obsessive (UK), New Copy 2LP
LP...$7.99 29.98
A wonderful collection of tripped out soul tunes from the 70s -- 8 tracks specially selected by Faze Action for their spacey sounds! The set is incredible -- a lot deeper than you might think at first glance, as it's filled with some lesser-known gems from 70s soul albums -- tracks that have a mix ...
cover art  
Blue Note, 2004. New Copy 2LP Gatefold
A dream come true! Someone at Blue Note is keeping their eyes and ears on the street and in the clubs -- because here's another late model conceptual triumph -- a remix project pairing current innovators in the club and hip hop underground with classic numbers from the label's vaults! The concept ...
cover art  
Planet Funk, Late 60s/Early 70s. New Copy
Not much of a cover -- but a really great collection of grooves -- of the sort that really takes us back to the first few home grown funky 45 compilations of the 90s! The set really goes for the best of the classic early funk 45 sound -- tracks with hard drums, sharp riffing guitars, and an ...
cover art  
Le Smoke Disque, 1970. New Copy 2LP
Funky stuff inspired by the deepest, funkiest Kool & The Gang work of the 70s -- a set weighed heavily with real obscurities -- with furiously grooving jazzy bits, grainy hard soul versions, steel band numbers and more -- all massively funky in their unique strains of the sound! Much like the ...
cover art  
Twistin Rumble, 1960s. New Copy
Rough and raw grooves -- way more than you might guess from the "twist" reference in the title! The sound here is more R&B than anything else -- lots of heavy drums, honking sax, burning organ, and riffing guitar -- but there's also some echoes of Latin rhythms, rockabilly raunch, ...

Le Smoke Disque, Late 60s/1970s. New Copy 2LP
A massive tribute to The Meters -- one that features rare versions of some of their best funky classics! If you dig The Meters, you'll no doubt recognize most of the tunes -- but you've probably never heard them in these versions before -- as most of them are pulled from the farthest reaches of ...
cover art  
Guerilla Reissues, Late 60s/Mid 70s. New Copy 2LP
Good God, indeed -- a masterful compilation of some of the weirdest James Brown covers you've ever heard -- a truly global assortment of tunes, all of which really keep the best funky spirit of The Godfather in place! The tracks here go way past the usual, and most of the numbers are all quite ...
cover art  
Le Smoke Disque, Late 60s/1970s. New Copy 2LP
Wickedly funky reworks of classics by Sly & The Family Stone -- most of which are harder-hitting than the famous original versions! The package is a great assemblage of lesser-known cover versions -- many of which are done in rough-edged, deep funk modes -- not just by American groups, but ...
