Ulmer on Blue Note – who'd a thunk it? And oddly, although the album's on one of the most jazz-based labels at the time, it's also one of Ulmer's most rock-oriented – with strong lead vocals on nearly every track, and an overall style that's as bluesy as it is experimentally jazzy. ...

(Includes the Blue Note inner sleeve. Cover has a cutout hole and light wear.)
Prime psych folk material from Unspoken Word – a late 60s combo that blends acoustic and electric grooves, and a spiritual lyricism – with the free flowing adventurous in the sophisticatedly crafted tunes!

(Cover has a cutout hole, in great shape otherwise!)
A groundbreaking blend of folksy elements and more driving prog – a perfectly balanced set that sums up the unique genius of Van Der Graaf Generator!

A cool set from a percussionist who was both a figure in the more cutting-edge side of the New York downtown scene of the early 80s – and who had done some work for bigger groups as well! The album's one of the few under Van Tieghem's name – and features the artist on a huge amount of ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Earth ... LP Vertigo, 1973. Near Mint- ...
$29.99
Very cool early work from Vangelis – an album recorded right after he left Aphrodite's Child, and with a sound that's not that different than the group's final album 666 – especially in the compelling sonic range that's used throughout!

$49.99
The mid 70s double LP release of the Velvets live – just past the uber prime point, in 1969 after Doug Yule had steeped in for the departed John Cale!

(80s black label pressing in a barcode cover. Cover has light ringwear, some edge wear, lightly bent sides, and is bent a bit at the bottom right corner.)
This 1970 live recording arrived at the end of the line for the true Velvet Underground – before latter-day bassist Doug Yule took over the name for a short and (thankfully) long-forgotten stint, in a performance that became known as the group's last live set! Maureen Tucker and John Cale ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Early 00s Scorpio reissue. Cover is bent a bit at the spine.)
One of the most far-out, freaked-out albums ever from the Velvet Underground – easily the most experimental set the group ever recorded!

(Mid 90s US Polydor reissue in a barcode cover, with minimal wear.)
The Ventures were furiously productive in the early 60s – delivering gem after gem – and this is among the best!

... LP, Vinyl record album
(Original pressing with AR suffix. Cover has a thin cutout notch, minimal wear, and is bent just a bit at the spine.)
One of the great mid 70s albums from Tom Waits in his earlier boozy, growling balladeer mode – with lots of slower, piano-led bluesy and jazzy ballads – on top of the jivey, gravelly charisma of his voice and songwriting that already had him approaching legendary status even though he ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Includes the printed inner sleeve. Cover has light wear.)
Tom Waits's follow-up to Rain Dogs – and a batch of songs that do double duty as a straight-up, stand alone record from his wild years at Island Records – and also as the musical accompaniment to a play he co-wrote with wife Kathleen Brennan! (As Chicagoans, we have a special fondness ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Tom Waits' final album for Asylum – and one that clearly points the way towards the rawly rhythmic, murky atmospherics of his wilder Island years to come – while still bringing out the woozy, gruff balladeer of the earlier albums! It's kind of amazing that the record works as well as ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Original pressing with SRC stamp. Includes the printed inner sleeve.)
The great early double album from Tom Waits! This is peak Asylum era Waits, getting into that charismatic, drunken bluesy poet mode – essentially working live in the studio with a small audience , giving it a genuine sounding latenight cabaret vibe, and embracing his wit and style as ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Cloud label pressing. Cover has faint ring wear.)
One of the all time great albums from Tom Waits – possibly the pinnacle of his earlier drunken poet style of songcraft – and with some of the most achingly beautiful songs he ever laid down!

Warlock —
Warlock ... LP Music Merchant, 1972. Very Good+ ...
$49.99
One of the stranger chapters of the Holland-Dozier-Holland story of the early 70s – and one of the coolest, too! Warlock are a jazzy rock combo with plenty of soul – a bit like a twisted version of Blood Sweat & Tears, but with all the sinister energy you'd guess from the image on ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

The rare fourth album from We Five – still in the folk-based mode of the group's earlier work, but done with a much looser, hipper style overall!

A landmark live set from The Who – a record that offers the group with a blistering intensity that blows away all their other studio albums of the time!

(80s pressing on MCA, in a non-gatefold cover, with ring wear.)
A classic greatest hits package from The Who – one that had almost as much life as any of their major full length albums, and a set that served to re-introduce new audiences to the group after the success of Tommy and Who's Next! Most of the tracks here predate those albums – pulled ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Maybe the first true moment of genius from The Who – a record that shows that the group aren't just the usual mod rockers of the time – even though they were already pretty darn great in that format!
