Wendell Stuart & The Downbeaters ... LP Elite, Early 70s. Very Good+ ... $9.99
A strange bit of Carribean soul from singer Wendell Stuart.

Richard Groove Holmes —
After Hours ... LP Pacific Jazz, 1962. Very Good ... $5.99
An obscure early one from Groove Holmes!

Ebonys ... LP CBS/Philadelphia International, 1973. Very Good ... $11.99
Excellent work by this oft-overlooked east coast harmony group!
