A funky treasure trove from Apple & The Three Oranges – a group we hardly know at all, but who really blow us away with the cuts on this collection!

Is It Still Good To Ya ... LP Warner, 1978. Near Mint- ... Just Sold Out!
Ashford & Simpson don't need to ask at this point – their in full 70s soul stride here, and it's not good, it's great!

Ashford & Simpson —
So So Satisfied ... LP Warner, 1977. Near Mint- ... $3.99

Ashford & Simpson —
Stay Free ... LP Warner, 1979. Near Mint- ... Just Sold Out!
Great stuff! From Motown songwriters to world-class superstars, the trip was a well-deserved one for Valerie Simpson and Nick Ashford – and this album's perhaps their crowning achievement in sophisticated club soul! The record's got a great groove that offers a more soulful version of disco ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Includes the printed inner sleeve. Back cover has a promo stamp.)
Average White Band —
Soul Searching ... LP Atlantic, 1976. Near Mint- ... Just Sold Out!
Sublime mid 70s work from The Average White Band – and a record that really has the group deepening their groove a bit – moving past the heavier funk of their roots, into some mellower grooves that are totally great! There's a great undercurrent of jazz in some of the playing here ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Includes the heavy inner sleeve. Cover has a large name and some writing in pen in front.)
Roy Ayers —
Mystic Voyage ... LP Polydor, 1975. Very Good- ... $13.99
An archetypal album by Roy Ayers – and one that really shows him at the turning point of his sound! Gone are the trippier jazz funk moments of earlier albums – and in their place are some tight grooves and wonderfully spacey soul. Roy hits the dancefloor with one of his first up-tempo ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Original pressing! Cover has surface & edge wear, spot of marker, small split on the bottom seam.)
Anita Baker —
Songstress ... LP Beverly Glen, 1983. Near Mint- Gatefold ... $24.99

Gene Barge, David Matthews, & Andre Davis —
Stony Island – Original Soundtrack ... LP Glades, 1978. Near Mint- ... $14.99
A sweet set of soundtrack funk – from a film named after one of our favorite streets in Chicago! Although the record's got an approach that's perhaps a bit tighter and smoother than anything going down on Stony in the late 70s, it does manage to share a good deal of styles with the Chi-soul ...

Also available Stony Island – Original Soundtrack ... CD 12.99
Bee Gees, Tavares, Yvonne Elliman, & Others —
Saturday Night Fever ... LP RSO, 1977. Very Good 2LP Gatefold ... $6.99
Yes, it was a mega-hit – and yes, it was one of those records that everyone who lived through the 70s seemed to own at one time – but after all these decades, you can't deny the power of the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack – especially for the way that it mixed club soul classics ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

George Benson —
Give Me The Night ... LP Qwest/Warner, 1980. Very Good+ ... Just Sold Out!
Yipes! This one made everyone a bucket of money – especially Quincy Jones, whose new Qwest imprint the record was one of the first to grace. George has come a long way from his roots with Jack McDuff here – but in a way that kind of has us impressed, as he's grooving away slickly on ... (Jazz, Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Chuck Berry —
New Juke Box Hits ... LP Chess, Early 60s. Near Mint- ... $14.99
As with many of the Chuck Berry full LPs for Chess, this one's filled with some great obscure material that always gets eclipsed by Chuck's big hits. Despite the idea that these would be "new jukebox hits", the material has an approach that was probably a bit too hard for radio, but that' ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(80s pressing in a barcode cover, with an X imprint at the bottom right corner.)
Chuck Berry —

Changes One ... LP RCA, 1976. Very Good ... $14.99
Almost a "greatest hit" of "greatest hits" collection – given the importance of this album to the David Bowie catalog!

Good Rocking Tonight – Legendary Recordings Vol 2 – 1947 to 1954 ... LP Route 66 (Sweden), Late 40s/Early 50s. Near Mint- ... $16.99
Although Roy Brown had a slightly softer edge than some of his R&B contemporaries – he could definitely rock and wail when he wanted to, as you'll hear on this set! The set does good job of digging through Roy's work from the late 40s and early 50s, pulling together 15 tracks that mix ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Jerry Butler —
Ice On Ice ... LP Mercury, 1969. Very Good ... $5.99
Killer stuff – as Jerry's getting the full early Philly treatment here, with arrangements by Thom Bell, Bobby Martin, and Roland Chambers, and production by a young Gamble and Huff! The sound isn't nearly as icy as the old Vee Jay days – but that's fine with us, as Jerry is nice and ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Donald Byrd & 125th Street, NYC —
Love Byrd ... LP Elektra, 1981. Very Good+ ... $19.99
A sweet funky 80s set from trumpeter Donald Byrd – a record done after his 70s run at Blue Note with producer Larry Mizell, but in a groove that's equally great in its own sort of way! Isaac Hayes is the producer on the set, and also plays a lot of Fender Rhodes, plus piano, vibes, and ... (Jazz, Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Textured cover has a drip stain and light surface wear.)
Chi-Lites —
Heavenly Body ... LP Chi Sound, 1980. Very Good+ ... $7.99
Really sweet later work from The Chi Lites – proof that the group were still going strong long after their initial chart hits!

(Cover has minimal wear, cutout notch.)
Tom Clay —
What The World Needs Now Is Love ... LP MoWest, 1971. Near Mint- ... $4.99

Crown Heights Affair —
Do It Your Way ... LP De-Lite, 1976. Near Mint- Gatefold ... $19.99

Bo Diddley —
16 All Time Greatest Hits ... LP Checker, Late 50s/Early 60s. Very Good+ ... $19.99
If it were up to us, every song Bo recorded would have been a hit – because they're all so great! This album does a pretty good job of sorting out the best numbers, though – picking 16 tracks from his all-great albums for Chess – with a focus on the tightest and most groove-heavy ...

Bo Diddley —
Got My Own Bag Of Tricks ... LP Chess, Late 50s/1960s. Near Mint- 2LP Gatefold ... $24.99
A nice little collection of Bo Diddley's earlier work for Chess – put together in the early 70s, when Bo was in his Black Gladiator phase, as pictured on the cover – but featuring the rawer, rougher grooves of his initial recordings in the late 50s and early 60s!

Earth Wind & Fire —
Open Our Eyes ... LP Columbia, 1974. Near Mint- ... Just Sold Out!
Spiritual, soulful, and oh, so beautiful!

Foundations —
Digging The Foundations ... LP Uni, 1969. Near Mint- Gatefold ... $13.99
A great second album from The Foundations – one that's got the group working with a really strong batch of unusual material, and sounding every bit as great as before with their new lead singer Colin Young! At times, there's maybe even more of a soul vibe here than before – and Young's ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(In the Unipak cover, with a small cutout hole and price sticker remnants.)
Foxy —
Get Off ... LP Dash, 1978. Near Mint- ... $4.99
A pretty catchy bit of Miami club from the late 70s! The group's got a strong acoustic sound underpinning their grooves – with some excellent percussion underneath the best tracks, and some vocals that almost hit a scatting harmony range that reminds us of Side Effect or the LA Boppers. ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Later pressing with flying geese labels. Cover has some edge wear and light marks from sticker and index label removal.)
Aretha Franklin —
Unforgettable – A Tribute To Dinah Washington ... LP Columbia, Mid 60s. Very Good ... Just Sold Out!
An early moment of vocal strength from Aretha Franklin – a set in which she takes on the music of the recently-departed Dinah Washington, and really transforms it into her own!

Heaven 17 —
How Men Are ... LP Arista/Virgin, 1984. Very Good+ ... $5.99
The last moment of greatness from Heaven 17 – and a set that continues the trend towards more soulful expression the group began with their previous record!

Howlin Wolf —
More Real Folk Blues ... LP Chess, Mid 50s. Near Mint- ... Just Sold Out!
A much earlier set of tracks than the first volume of Real Folk Blues from Howlin Wolf – mostly material recorded in the mid 50s, both in Chicago and Memphis – all with a really nitty gritty sort of feel! There's a rough and rootsy mode going on here – one that has Wolf's raspy ... (Blues, Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

This Is Determination Problems (original pressing) ... LP Ear Wax/Wonderland, 1978. Sealed ... $8.99

Impressions & Jerry Butler —
Vintage Years ... LP Sire, Mid 60s/1976. Sealed 2LP Gatefold ... $7.99
Nifty 2LP set that brings together a motherlode of the Impressions' best material from their ABC years – plus some of Jerry Butler's nice solo material for Mercury from the same time, and a few Curtis cuts from the early 70s.

Etta James —
At Last (Original Chess Masters) ... LP Chess/MCA, 1960. Near Mint- ... $39.99

Emergency ... LP De-Lite, 1984. Near Mint- ... Just Sold Out!
Sweet 80s sounds from the legendary Kool & The Gang – one of the key classics from the second chapter of the group – when their lineup and sound were a lot leaner than before, and they managed to cross over big to a much wider audience than before!

An obscure late 60s session that has R&B genius Roy Milton fronting a small group led by Johnny Otis, and featuring a young Shuggie Otis on guitar!
