Wooden Nickel, 1975. Near Mint- ... $3.99
The album's title is a reference to an address on the north side of Chicago – 953 West Belmont Ave – somewhat gritty at the time the album was recorded, now not too far from a giant Target discount store!

Duke, Early 60s. Very Good+ ... $3.99
To us, most of Bobby's early Duke albums would serve fine as "best of" sets in and of themselves – so great is his work for that label during this period! This one's a pretty great sampling of his genius – that unique blend of blues and soul that still makes Bobby's work ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Atlantic, Late 50s. Near Mint- ... $3.99

Wooden Nickel, 1971. Very Good+ Gatefold ... $5.99
A classic set from this legendary Chicago group of the early 70s – a combo led by Jim Schwall and Corky Siegel – two blue-eyed Windy City musicians who were unabashedly in love with the blues music of their scene! Unlike some of the later crossover blues albums of the 70s, these guys ... (Rock, Blues) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Wooden Nickel, 1973. Very Good ... $5.99
Live material from Chicago's Siegel Schwall Band – recorded in small clubs in the Midwest, very much the sort of venues from which they sprang!
