Blue Thumb, 1973. Very Good- Gatefold ... $8.99
One of Phil Upchurch's best records – and one that's a no-nonsense batch of funky instrumentals that feature some really great guitar!

Jazz Bata 2 ... CD Mack Avenue, 2019. Used ... $8.99
A long overdue follow-up to the original Jazz Bata album from Cuban pianist Chucho Valdes – and like that famous set, a really open-ended album that mixes his own piano with spare but effective use of bass and percussion!

Svart (Finland), 1973. New Copy ... $22.99
A tribute to Marilyn Monroe, but one that's way different than you might expect – as the music here is highly electronic, and often quite dark – served up in a mix of experimental and jazz-based modes by a very unusual Finnish group from the early 70s!
