An overlooked gem by the great Charlie Rich – an album recorded for Hi Records in the years before he broke big on Columbia in the late 60s – but at a level that certainly points the way towards his country fame to come! And yet, as with most of the best music by Rich – like his ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
The seminal first album from Jeannie C Riley – a record that may have been launched with a novelty hit in the lead, but which also marks Riley as a surprisingly strong singer overall!

Scott Seskind ... LP Scott Seskind/Everland (Austria), 1985. New Copy (reissue)...
$24.9936.99
A really weird, really moody sort of record – one that was issued in the mid 80s, but by a guy who seems to think that he's still working in the singer/songwriter generation of the late 70s! For Scott Seskind, punk and new wave never happened – as the songs here are personal, heartfelt ... (Rock, Folk/Country)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Wonderful work from Dorothy Shay – a very unusual singer for her time, and in a backwards way, almost a force in mainstreaming country music in later years! As the title implies, Dorothy's a bit of a "Park Avenue Hillbilly" – in that she sings country themes, but in a style ... (Vocalists, Folk/Country)read moreLP, Vinyl record album

There's a slight shift here from the first album by Steeleye Span – a bit of a shift to just a touch of electric guitar and organ next to the bass guitar lines of Ashley Hutchings – which makes for an even more sinister sound than before! In keeping with their approach, most songs are ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

(Cover has a promo stamp, a trace of a sticker, and small corner bumps.)
You won't find Joyce Street in the Country Music Hall Of Fame, but she's the kind of singer who definitely could have been huge, had she ever hit the big time – yet maybe one who's even more fascinating on this series of singles recorded for a variety of small labels in the 70s – all ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Roots ... LP Blue Hour, 1971. Very Good+ ...
$24.99
An obscure album by a group from Milwaukee – recorded at a time when that city didn't have much of a scene at all – which left these guys to perform in a coffee house for all the songs on the album! The set's got a vibe that's up-close, and more tightly produced than just a local live ... (Rock, Folk/Country)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A mix of folk and country, presented in soundtrack form – with tracks from Sheb Wooley, The Gateway Trio, Cathie Taylor, Chris Crosby, and Joe & Eddie. (Soundtracks, Folk/Country)LP, Vinyl record album
Beautiful work from the Youngbloods – a mixture of folk rock and jazzy phrasing, very much in the same spirit of Tim Hardin or Tim Buckley, with a depth and complexity that's quite surprising, and which has held up surprisingly well over the years – almost more appealing now than when ...
