In Memory Of ... LP Blue Note, 1964/1980. Very Good- ...
$9.99
A stone smoker from the great Stanley Turrentine – an album that's got a lot more of an edge than some of his other Blue Note dates from the time – yet, for some odd reason, wasn't issued until the end of the 70s! The group's a crackling septet – yet still put together relatively ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

$3.99
Soulful Stan, over arrangements by Claus Ogerman! Titles include "Papa T", "Joao", "Birdland", "Nightwings", "Don't Give Up On Us", and "If You Don't Believe". LP, Vinyl record album
A 70s soulful classic from the mighty Stanley Turrentine! Stan's not the bad "Mister T" on this set – he's more in a smooth, mellow mode – blowing over some nice soulful arrangements by Gene Page, ones that take the CTI funk approach, add in some strings, and create a bit of ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Spoiler ... LP Blue Note, 1966. Near Mint- ...
$24.99
Stanley Turrentine's no spoiler here – as his tenor sax soars out over the top of some sweet larger group arrangements from Duke Pearson – all awash in a great sense of soul, joy, and life! The album's got a much brighter feel than you might guess from the cover – a vibe that's a ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Best Of Friends ... LP Elektra, 1979. Sealed ...
$14.9919.99
Jazzy soul all the way through – and a great little album from Lenny White and the Twennynine combo – a group that features some especially great keyboards from the great Don Blackman! The style here's a bit like some of Blackman's own work – rooted in fusion, but focused towards ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
The first album by this funky fusion quartet – done in a mix of vocal styles that has a nice crossover appeal! The group features work by Hiram Bullock on guitars, Clifford Carter on keyboards, Steve Jordan on drums, and Will Lee on bass – and vocals are handled mostly by Bullock and ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

(US pressing. Cover has a promo stamp, some ring and edge wear, small yellowed sticker spot, tiny blemish spot, and is bent a bit at the corners of the spine.)
A haunting tribute to the late John Coltrane – not just a "friend" of McCoy Tyner, but a key musical partner back in the 60s! The album's a solo piano effort – extremely intimate, but still played with that long-flowing majesty we always love in McCoy – and two of the ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

McCoy Tyner —
Horizon ... LP Milestone, 1979. Near Mint- ...
Just Sold Out!
A bit of a change for McCoy Tyner – but a set that's every bit as righteous as his other classics from the 70s! The lineup here is slightly different – with John Blake's violin playing a strong role in the sound, and lots of percussion from Guilherme Franco giving the set an almost ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

McCoy Tyner —
Real McCoy ... LP Blue Note, 1967. Very Good+ ...
$99.99

McCoy is backed up here by the energetic drumming of Elvin Jones – with whom he shares a natural empathy from their many years together ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Liberty stereo pressing with Van Gelder stamp. Cover has ringwear, heavy edge wear, yellowing from age, center splits in the top seam and spine, wide splits in the bottom seam, and some yellowed clear tape at the spine.)
Pretty darn nice stuff from McCoy Tyner, from a period when he was opening up to the soul jazz spiritualism that was around him – a movement that was clearly directly inspired by his work with Coltrane, but which also helped to shape his playing, and return the favor of influence. The group ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(A beautiful copy – limited and numbered, with insert.)
A great album from McCoy Tyner – a set that's steeped in the modal soulfulness of his years with John Coltrane, but also handled in a way that really has him breaking away from the pack a bit! Half the album's played with a trio that features Jimmy Garrison on bass – but the strongest ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

(Vinyl plays with a short click on the first track on side 2, but the rest is NM-. In the textured gatefold cover, with light wear.)
Ulmer on Blue Note – who'd a thunk it? And oddly, although the album's on one of the most jazz-based labels at the time, it's also one of Ulmer's most rock-oriented – with strong lead vocals on nearly every track, and an overall style that's as bluesy as it is experimentally jazzy. ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Includes the Blue Note inner sleeve. Cover has a cutout hole and light wear.)
A totally wonderful album from one of the hippest groups on Motown at the start of the 70s – the mighty Undisputed Truth, a group who really took up the psychedelic soul style of The Temptations, and gave it a real run for its money! The record was produced by Temptations maestro Norman ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Original pressing. Cover has some ringwear, edge wear, bumped corners, and a small fray at the bottom seam.)
A 60s party record – hidden under the guise of an historical album about Cleopatra! The back describes her as "wicked, wanton, and all woman" – and the record within tells the tale! LP, Vinyl record album
Pretty great stuff from Unlimited Touch – grooving here in a sound that's got a bit more of an 80s feel than their previous album, but which still works well for their dual-female vocal lead style. There's a bit of an electro "wheeet" in some of the tracks, but the vocals and the ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Prime psych folk material from Unspoken Word – a late 60s combo that blends acoustic and electric grooves, and a spiritual lyricism – with the free flowing adventurous in the sophisticatedly crafted tunes! The core group is just vocals, guitar, bass, keyboard and drums – the ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Stereo black label pressing. Cover has light wear – but this is a great copy.)
Plenty of darkness here from Phil Upchurch – those great tones and notes he worked so well back in the 70s – all with that near-perfect quality that made him one of the most in-demand players of his day! The style here is a bit different than some of Phil's previous work in Chicago ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

(Orange label stereo pressing. Cover has minor blemishes in back.)
A groundbreaking blend of folksy elements and more driving prog – a perfectly balanced set that sums up the unique genius of Van Der Graaf Generator!

(Red label stereo pressing – B-M5 – in a "Giant Squid" cover. Cover has a small cutout hole, split top seam, some ring and edge wear, small split in the bottom seam, and some light smudges in back.)

One of the few US releases by this European flute player who mixed jazz, classical, funk, and rock styles, and who was a major player in the group Focus.

One of the most fantastic soundtracks of the 70s – and maybe even of all time – thanks to a non-stop blast of insane styles and grooves – all quite different than other blacksploitation records of the time! For this, his masterpiece film, Melvin Van Peebles composed a non-stop ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A massive Fender Rhodes set from early 70s Belgium – the kind of set that never shows up on this side of the Atlantic, and which is pretty darn rare in its home territory too!

(Unplayed copy in a resealable sleeve – 2022 Record Store Day pressing, with hype stickers.)
A cool set from a percussionist who was both a figure in the more cutting-edge side of the New York downtown scene of the early 80s – and who had done some work for bigger groups as well! The album's one of the few under Van Tieghem's name – and features the artist on a huge amount of ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
