Son House —
Legendary Son House Father Of Folk Blues (180 gram pressing) ... LP Columbia, 1965. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock

Taj Mahal —
Music Keeps Me Together ... LP Columbia, 1975. Very Good ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A bit hipper and less bluesy than some of Taj's other work for Columbia – recorded with his Intergalactic Soul Messengers Band, and a sound that's slyly soulful – and flavored with reggae or otherwise Caribbean influenced rhythms!
