Brute Force ... LP Embryo, 1970. Near Mint- ...
Out Of Stock
The one and only album by this righteous funky combo from Ohio! Although Brute Force were an American group of the late 60s, they've got a sound that brings in traces of the African rhythms that were bubbling under at the time – similar to some of the best London groups of the post-colonial ...

Uptown Conversation ... CD Embryo/East West (Japan), 1970. Used ...

Circles ... LP Embryo, 1970. Very Good Gatefold ...
Out Of Stock
Super-righteous work from William S Fischer – the ultra-hip arranger who was one of the most important forces in the late 60s underground soul jazz scene!

Herbie Man gets nitty and gritty at the Muscle Shoals Studios – bringing his funky flute to the southern powerhouse of sound, and hitting some of his most soulful grooves of the time! The approach here is really great – definitely cast in the southern soul mode that was associated with ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Herbie Mann —
Push Push ... LP Embryo, 1971. Very Good Gatefold ...
Out Of Stock
One of Herbie Mann's biggest albums – and one of his funkiest too! The cover's a bit of an off-putter – although it probably helped sell the record, back in the day – but the grooves are as rock-solid as anything that Herbie cut at the time – tight, focused, and a perfect ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(In the die-cut gatefold cover, with some ringwear, edge wear, and a cup-ring stain in front.)

Stone Flute ... LP Embryo, 1970. Near Mint- Gatefold ...
$13.99
Stone flute, or stoned flute, the album's got a really laidback feel – a sound that's very open-ended, and quite different from some of the crossover classics Herbie Mann was cutting a few short years before! The record's got the darkly brooding feel of some of his other work on the Vortex ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(White label promo. Die-cut cover has a promo sticker and is nice.)

Fifth Word ... LP Embryo, 1970. Very Good+ Gatefold ...
Out Of Stock
Weird and wild sounds from Jerry Novac – an artist who fits right in with the openly progressive style of Atlantic's Embryo label at the start of the 70s! The tracks are long and sometimes trippy – and Novac plays piano and organ, and adds vocals – while Buzzy Feitan and Eric ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Danny Toan —
First Serve ... LP Embryo, 1977. Very Good+ ...
Temporarily Out Of Stock
Spacey fusion from guitarist Danny Toan – sometimes upbeat, sometimes laidback, and always pretty soulful! The record's got a feel that's a bit different than some of the better-known fusion artists of the time – almost more like an instrumental soul album in points, with Danny's ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Cover has clear tape on the top seam, light ring wear.)
One of the greatest moments ever from bassist Miroslav Vitous – a very cool album recorded for the trippy Vortex label! The lineup here has Miroslav working with key help from the American underground – piano from Herbie Hancock, tenor from Joe Henderson, and drums from Jack DeJohnette ... read moreCD
A stunner of an album – light years ahead of Phil's earlier work in America – a bit funky at times, with some really open-ended modern sounds! The album features Phil with his incredible European Rhythm Machine – a group that includes Gordon Beck on electric piano, Henri Texier ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
