At The Village Gate ... LP Colpix, 1961. Very Good ... $13.99
An album recorded relatively early in the career of singer Nina Simone – but a set that already shows the very unique approach that would make her a legend by the time the 60s moved on! Even the very first tune is a stunner – a haunting reworking of the favorite "Just In Time" ... (Vocalists, Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Nina Simone —
Nuff Said ... LP RCA, 1968. Sealed ... $69.99
A great little album from Nina – mostly recorded live at the Westbury Music Fair, with a hip mix of jazz, soul, and folk that's stretched out in a slightly informal setting that always brings out the best of Nina's vocals.

Southern University Jazz Ensemble/Jazzstronauts/Now Again, 1971. Near Mint- ... $19.99
A set that's gotta be one of the most righteous school band records ever – way more than just a bunch of students doing big band numbers, and instead a killer batch of spiritual jazz numbers, directed by the legendary Alvin Batiste!

8 ... LP Atlantic, 1977. Very Good+ ... $3.99
Eight Atlantic albums, and The Spinners are still going strong – sounding really wonderful here, thanks to Philly backings from the great Thom Bell!

Song For You ... LP Motown, 1975. Very Good+ ... $3.99

Boss Of The Blues – Joe Turner Sings Kansas City Jazz ... LP Atlantic, Late 50s. Near Mint- ... $9.99

Vanity 6 —
Vanity 6 ... LP Warner, 1982. Near Mint- ... $16.99
The only record from this group that would sort of morph into Apollonia 6, one of many Prince vehicles during the 80s.
