ATA (UK), 2017. New Copy ... Just Sold Out!
There's nothing abstract here – as the set's a fantastically-focused tribute to the late Jay Dee – put together in a style that's mostly jazz, but which also has some great vocal touches too! The music's roots are in hip hop, but the presentation here is awash in strong work on saxes, ... (Deep Funk, Hip Hop) read more LP, Vinyl record album
ATA (UK), 2019. New Copy ... $23.99
A really great take on the music of Madvillain – that famous collaboration between Madlib & MF Doom – served up here in a mostly instrumental mode that's heavy on funk and jazz!

Loma Vista, 2020. New Copy ... Just Sold Out!

Tommy Boy, 1984. Very Good+ ... $6.99
Six different mixes of this meeting of two greats.

Island, 1984. Near Mint- ... $9.99
It's hard to imagine a more exciting single from the early 80s – as both sides of this one completely changed our way of listening to music, and set the tone for a generation of sounds to come.

Bentley/blocGLOBAL, 1989. New Copy (reissue)... $21.99 27.99
A great indie set from the early years of the gangsta scene – a record that was maybe overlooked a bit at the time, and which maybe was trying a bit too hard with its posed cover image – but which, after the passage of years, has this great sort of upfront, earnest approach to the ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
