Agitation Free —
Malesch ... LP Vertigo (Germany), 1972. Near Mint- Gatefold ...
Just Sold Out!
A sublime debut from German prog outfit Agitation Free – a set that's definitely free of agitation, and one that spins out in these long, winding lines with lots of Eastern influences! There's a bit of drone to some of the grooves, but never in a sleepy or sloppy sort of way – and in ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Limited German reissue from 2004 on Amber Soundroom. Cover has light wear.)
Davie Allan & The Arrows —
Blues Theme ... LP Tower, 1967. Very Good ...
$29.99
A rare album from Hollywood studio musicians turned garage rock heroes Davie Allan & The Arrows! This is another of their Nugget-fueling efforts with short, short cuts blazing with fuzzy-as-hell guitars, rumbling drums and thumping bass – rolling along with fluid, thematic lead guitar ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Mono pressing. Cover has minor splitting in the top and bottom seams.)
The Allman Brothers at their best – and a key 70s set that may well have the group working at their peak! All their best southern roots are firmly tied together here – not just the country-touched approach to rock that was the group's calling card, but also their ties to some of the ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Early work from Ted Nugent – working here as the searing lead guitarist of the mighty Amboy Dukes! The Nuge doesn't sing on the set, but his guitar is definitely in the spotlight on most numbers – ripping out with a rawness that beats his later superstar work, and which is free to ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Aorta —
Aorta ... LP Columbia, Late 60s. Very Good Gatefold ...
$14.99
A lost heavy rock classic from the Dunwich Production team – recorded in Michigan, but with extra orchestral backing in Chicago – for an approach that gives the record a slightly pop quality that tempers the harder rock sound nicely. The songs are actually pretty catchy, in a post-Summe ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(360 Sound stereo pressing with 1B/1B matrix. Cover has light wear with a light horizontal crease along.)
Mid 60s concept pop from Appletree Theatre – a mix of unpredictable baroque pop, soaring string laden tunes, and more stripped down and moody numbers – and programmed as acts, in keeping with the theatre mode! What's most impressive, other than the tuneful songcraft, is that it never ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Stereo Verve Forecast pressing. Cover has a cutout hole.)
Association —
Association ... LP Warner, 1969. Sealed Gatefold ...
Just Sold Out!
Really great work by The Association – a back-to-basics effort that has the group handling most of the instrumentation themselves, in a way that often gives the set a surprisingly intimate feel! Sure, these are the guys who virtually invented candy-coated Sunshine Pop – but they're ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Shrinkwrap has a vintage sale sticker. Cover has a cut corner.)
A groovy groovy soundtrack that contains one of the Association's greatest songs! "Goodbye Columbus" may not be as famous as some of their bigger hits – but we love it to death, and it's the kind of catchy groover they'll find us singing in the coffin long after we've passed away! ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Back Door —
Back Door ... LP Warner, 1973. Very Good+ Gatefold ...
$19.99
A hard-jamming bit of jazz rock – with lots of free solo work on alto and soprano sax by Ron Aspery, and a pretty strong power-trio instrumental format from Tony Hicks on drums and Colin Hodgkinson on bass. The album's more jamming than it is funky, but there's some pretty great playing on ... (Jazz, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(White label promo. Cover has a promo sticker in the top left corner.)
The kind of overlooked, understated gem that should have put Badfinger at the top of the charts in the mid 70s – a record of impeccable songwriting, really great production, and a refinement of an earlier musical ideal that really points the way forward – all while avoiding most of the ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Beach Boys —
Holland ... LP Brother/Warner, 1972. Very Good ...
Just Sold Out!
A great early 70s entry from The Beach Boys – and a record that's nicely balanced between mature pop tunes and more experimental moments!

(Includes the printed inner sleeve. Cover has a cutout notch and light edge wear.)
An unusual collection of material that seems to be from the sessions for the album Let It Be – issued here with no notes or label! LP, Vinyl record album
Maybe our favorite Beatles album ever – a key set that bridges the catchiness of the early years and the sharper ideas of later albums – with a slightly sinister undercurrent that really keeps things fresh! The album's got some great early psych in spots, offset with wonderfully mature ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Rainbow label stereo pressing with W7/X10 #54 matrix. Cover has light wear.)
A tremendous album from The Beau Brummels – one of the lesser-remembered groups from the late 60s Warner hipster heyday! At some level, the group's a folk-rock outfit – with the left-of-center feel of some of Fred Neil's best work for Capitol, and a similar blend of east coast honesty ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Gold label stereo pressing! Cover has a cutout hole, and some light water staining in a bottom corner – but is nice overall.)
The first full album featuring the incredible voice of Janis Joplin, as the singer of Big Brother & The Holding Company! Even at this early point, it's clear that there's some really incredible things happening with this band. Originally released on Mainstream, the production is a bit thin ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

... LP, Vinyl record album
(White label stereo promo. Cover has some ring & edge wear, aging, and a For DJ Use stamp on back.)
Nice bit of rockin' funky soul by a band that we know little about, but who seem to be an LA rock band that's obsessed with soul music. The LP contains a great 11 minute version of "Cold Sweat", played with a lot of funky vamping by the band in a JB's style. There's also a nice version ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Features Mick Abrams on lead vocals and guitar – and titles that include "Variations On Nainos", "San Francisco Sketches", "Toys", "Send Your Son To Die", "The Squirreling Must Go On", and "Meanie Monday". LP, Vinyl record album
The breakthrough album by Blondie! Parallel Lines is their third album overall, and having been released only 7 months after their second, you know they were hungry to break big – and they do it here with unbeatable cool. For as tight and bright as as the sound is, a trademark of producer ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Includes the printed inner sleeve. Cover has light wear.)
A wild debut from Blood Sweat & Tears – one of those records that forever changed the face of popular music!

Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band —
Keynsham ... LP Imperial, 1970. Near Mint- Gatefold ...
$9.99
Some of the most tuneful moments on record from the Bonzo Dog Band – a set that's got some really great songs, but which still allows some space for gags and jokes as well! After three previous albums together, even with a shifting lineup, the group have obviously gotten their groove down a ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Liberty/UA pressing. Cover has some surface wear.)
The last album from the legendary Bonzo Dog Band – issued at a time when the group were going their separate ways, hence the somewhat ironic title! The set's possibly a bit more musical than before – and almost even shows some traces of the hipper, artier side of the British scene that ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

David Bowie —
Pinups ... LP RCA, 1973. Very Good+ ...
Just Sold Out!
A key blend of two chapters in David Bowie's career – his guitar-heavy groove with the Spiders From Mars, and his 60s roots in mod London! The tracks here all date from the mid 60s, and are Bowie's homage to that period in his life – but they're all played with a glammish 70s ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Original US orange label pressing, with printed inner sleeve!)
Arguably one of the greatest rock and roll albums of all time – and the key flowering of the partnership between David Bowie and Mick Ronson! The guitars here are heavy – so much so that the record's always crossed over big with crowds who are always suspicious of Bowie's artier work ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(180 gram UK Parlophone pressing from 2015. Includes the printed inner sleeve.)
Timeless, raucous and melodic bar room country rock on Third Man! The Craig Brown Band is schooled by classic honky tonk as much as the swaggery bloozy sound of the Stones circa the early 70s – plus a deft hand with sweet, but never too precious harmonies – the kind of thing you'd love ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
