Nucleus

Elastic Rock
Vertigo/Be With (UK), 1970. Gatefold (reissue)
A seminal early album from Ian Carr's legendary Nucleus group – playing here in a version that includes Karl Jenkins and Brian Smith on reeds, and Chris Spedding on guitar! The band has a landmark sound that mixes progressive jazz and tight full-on rock fusion into a style that's sometimes ... LP, Vinyl record album
Fania/Craft, 1972. (reissue)
A fantastic classic from Latin percussion legend Ray Barretto – one of his most sophisticated albums of the 70s, and a set that's different than some of his later salsa hits! The album mixes together rootsy percussion and smoother jazzy arrangements – in a manner that keeps things ... LP, Vinyl record album

Nick Brignola

This Is It
Priam/Fresh Sound (Spain), 1968.
A really great early album from saxophonist Nick Brignola – a date that was issued on a very tiny label, and already shows Brignola as a hell of a talent on a variety of reeds! The tunes are long and lean – with Nick blowing baritone, alto, saxello, and flute – in a combo with ... CD
Pablo International (France), Late 70s/Early 80s.
A set that's maybe even better than you might expect from the title – as it not only features never-heard music from the great Augustus Pablo, it also includes killer material from a time when he was burning with a tremendously righteous fire! Backings on most tracks are by the Rockers All ... LP, Vinyl record album
Ace (UK), Late 60s/Early 70s.
An incredible collection of work from the great John Cameron – kind of a secret hero on the British scene of the late 60s and early 70s – as most of his work was done for bigger artists at the time, or came out on obscure sound library sessions! Yet despite that obscurity, Cameron was ... CD

Abdul Wadud

By Myself
Bisharra/Gotta Groove, 1977. (reissue)
A haunting set of solo tracks by cellist Abdul Wadud – an important, and oft-overlooked, figure in the 70s loft jazz scene! Wadud plays cello throughout, but in a style that's extremely inventive – and much more in the vein of bass improvisation by players in a tradition that includes ... LP, Vinyl record album
Numero, Late 60s.
An overdue full length set from the great Helene Smith – a Miami singer who recorded for a number of small labels in the 60s, in a style that mixes deep soul leads with some wonderful sweet soul presentation! Helene's best known for the title cut, which has gotten some great play in recent ... LP, Vinyl record album
Electrecord/Mad About Records (Portugal), 1970. (reissue)
A very obscure player from the Romanian scene of the 70s – an acoustic pianist, but one who plays with the flow of a electric keyboardist – really opening up on the longer tracks on this rare album, with an especially great sense of his overall sound! Most numbers have just a core trio ... LP, Vinyl record album
Ace (UK), Late 50s/1960s.
A host of raw rockers that were originally served up as 7" singles – all blasting out together with a tremendous amount of power – as if you're enjoying a night with choice cuts all stacked up in the jukebox pictured on the cover! The set's way more than any sort of oldies ... CD

Harold Land

Damisi
Mainstream/We Want Sounds (UK), 1972. Gatefold
Harold Land at his most spiritual – recording solo after a set of great albums with Bobby Hutcherson as a partner – but still very much in the same sort of unbridled energy! The tracks are soaring and open – and have Land's tenor really sounding nice and raw – amidst a ... LP, Vinyl record album
BBE (UK), 2023. Gatefold
One of the most fantastic albums in years from the mighty Kirk DeGiorgio – a set that draws upon 70s sound library influences as a way for Kirk to really unfurl some of the jazziest elements in his music! Way back when nobody was ever referencing jazz for club tracks, DeGiorgio was always ... LP, Vinyl record album
Ultra Vybe (Japan), 1970s.
A really great return to form for the Free Soul series – one that mixed together key tracks from a variety of hip 70s soul and jazz labels – including Flying Dutchman, Brunswick, and TK – all with an assortment of grooves that really work well together! As with the classic Free ... CD
Vogue/Mad About Records (Portugal), 1979. (reissue)
A rare French album of funky fusion from drummer Daniel Bechet – dedicated to his father, the famous saxophonist Sidney Bechet – yet served up in a style that's nothing at all like the elder's musical legacy! Instead, Daniel works here in a warm blend of guitars and keyboards, ... LP, Vinyl record album
Modern Harmonic, 1972. 3LP (reissue)
LP...$116.99 124.99
One of the weirdest records Sun Ra ever made – music to accompany the strange film Space Is The Place – which itself was an odd mixture of science fiction and blacksploitation-type action! The sounds here are sometimes in the usual Arkestra mode – wonderfully exotic rhythms mixed ... LP, Vinyl record album
Impact/Onlyroots (France), 1975. (reissue)
One of the rarest dub albums of the 70s – a record that was originally done for the Impact label, but pressed up in a tiny amount of copies – even smaller than some of the better-known rare dub albums of the early years! Clive Chin is a righteous maestro throughout – superbly ... LP, Vinyl record album
Fresh Sound (Spain), 1980.
Two tremendous soloists, really sounding incredible together here – working in a live setting that features no piano at all, just bass and drums behind the tenor of Don Menza and the trumpet and flugelhorn of Sam Noto! The record's an especially strong treasure for any fan of Menza – ... CD
Gow Dow/Jazzman (UK), 1973. (reissue)
A rare bit of righteous jazz from the Cali scene of the 70s – a record that's much more obscure than some of the better-known efforts from the Bay Area and the LA scene, but which resonates strongly with all the power of those classics too! James Benson was an educator as much as he was a ... LP, Vinyl record album
Victor/Craftman (Japan), 1970. Gatefold (reissue)
A fantastic guitarist from the Japanese scene, and a player with a tone that's unlike anyone else we can think of – the great Masayuki Takayanagi, heard here in an early session done years before his work on the Three Blind Mice label! Masayuki has a raw edge on the strings – a rasp ... LP, Vinyl record album
Mercury/Be With (UK), 1975. (reissue)
A mid-70s classic from Ian Carr's Nucleus – a set that has the group still going strong, and still turning out one of the most amazing blends of jazz and progressive elements of their scene at the time! Carr's at the helm on both trumpet and flugelhorn, but also plays piano and moog as well ... LP, Vinyl record album

Toshiyuki Honda

Burnin' Waves
Electric Bird/Holy Basil (Italy), 1978. (reissue)
Sweet Japanese fusion from saxophonist Toshiyuki Honda – grooving with a tight, smooth, and soulful feel that matches the best of the genre from the time – a style that really makes the record a classic from this golden era of Japanese fusion! The album's got large R&B-inspired ... LP, Vinyl record album
