Flying Dutchman/BGP (UK), Early 70s. New Copy (reissue)... $11.99 14.99
One of the funkiest cuts ever from reedman Harold Alexander – served up here in the 45rpm single version, which is short, tight, and really concentrates on the funky drums at the core – although still also topped with plenty of fierce funky flute from the man himself! Speaking of funky ... read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Fatback Brother Bill Curtis/Perception/BGP (UK), Early 70s. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
Two killer early funky cuts from Fatback Band! "Dance Girl" is an incredible skittish groover – recorded with snapping drums, strumming guitar, and this shouted vocal that hangs the whole thing together. (And oddly, this version seems to have a second voice dubbed in, making some ... read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Kent/BGP (UK), Early 70s. New Copy (reissue)... $11.99 14.99
Maybe one of the funkiest vocal numbers ever sung by Johnny Adams – and one that owes a lot to the super-funky backings of the Huck Daniels Co – who somehow manage to combine the tightness of the James Brown Band of the late 60s with the more sophisticated instrumention of the JBs in ... read more 7-inch, Vinyl record

Brand New Girl/BGP (UK), 1971. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
Two tasty funky numbers on a limited reissue 45! Billy Garner's "Brand New Girl" is a non-stop groover – with a hard James Brown/Lee Fields vocal style, and compin' and chompin' guitar underneath!

I Got Some (parts 1 & 2) ... 7-inch New Day/BGP (UK), Early 70s. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
A break you can't live without – served up on the amazing intro to Billy Garner's classic "I Got Some"! The tune's one that you'll recognize from a few famous samples, but to our ears it sounds best here in the original – a badass funky soul tune with all elements right, ... read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Chester Randle's Soul Senders —
Soul Brothers Testify (parts 1 & 2) ... 7-inch Anla/BGP (UK), Early 70s. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
A great groove from the Anla Records material from Chester Randle – a track that has this burning, vamping guitar on the rhythm – which sets such a fire to the groove that Chester's able to easily step between singing and calling out the cut! And the "part 2" has this searing ... read more 7-inch, Vinyl record

Gil Scott Heron —
Pieces Of A Man/Flying Dutchman/BGP (UK), Early 70s. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
One of the most fantastic tracks ever written by Gil Scott Heron – a mellow but majestic tribute to the fragility of existence, and the kind of material that has him really putting himself out there – at a level that so few other singers can ever match! On the flipside, "I Think I' ... read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Flying Dutchman/BGP (UK), Early 70s. New Copy (reissue)... $11.99 14.99
Two totally fantastic versions of this spiritual jazz standard – a version recorded by Leon Thomas that's shorter and different than his famous vocal performance of the tune with Pharoah Sanders – and a stunning second take from Louis Armstrong, with backings from Oliver Nelson – ... read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
