Black Rose ... LP Asylum, 1976. Near Mint- ...
$16.99
One of the sweetest singer-songwriter records of the mid 70s country rock era – beloved by fans, but largely unknown to the masses after all these years! Black Rose is JD Souther's second record, and it's a thing a beauty – produced by Peter Asher and featuring a who's who Souther's ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Early 80s Japanese promo pressing, with obi and insert. Cover has a sticker mark and some aging.)
A key record in the post-Byrds legacy of the 70s – the famous pairing of JD Souther, Chris Hillman, and Richie Furay – all united in a mode that takes the country rock experiments of the late 60s into tighter territory for the new decade! There's definitely some focused, harmonic ... read moreCD

A wonderfully heady set from this obscure Texas group – every bit in the best raw-edged psych of that scene of the time – with a few really nice noisy moments too! Titles include "All One Big Game", "Tomorrow", "Rock N Roll Woman", "Smell Of ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Original pressing – HIS 7001. Cover has light ringwear, mostly in back, some edge wear, and lightly bent corners.)

(Includes the lyric sleeve. Cover has light wear.)
The first, and perhaps the most conventional album by Spanky & Our Gang – but still pretty darn insane! The group are a strange mix of 60s styles – with bits of We Five, bits of Harpers Bizarre, bits of The Association – but a totally strange and totally fun approach to pop ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Red label stereo pressing. Cover has a bent corner and some surface wear.)
A real turning point for Sparks – a set that has the duo of Russell and Ron Mael finding a whole new focus for their music on the UK scene!

Eve ... LP Warner (Japan), 1971. New Copy (reissue)...
$39.9948.99
An incredible album from the Japanese scene at the start of the 70s – served up by a group with a name that might be clunky, but which also belies one of that nation's heaviest combos of the time! The approach here is a bit like some of the tripped-out blues-influenced rock of the Led Zep ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Great reissue – with obi, and inserts just like the original!)
A hell of a record from a Japanese band who answered to nobody else – a combo who could come on with the ferocity of James Gang or some of their contemporaries, but also hit some even wilder, more experimental moments too – something they definitely do here in the space of the double-len ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Great 2LP reissue – with the paper wraparound image of the original!)
A sweet little set from the Jeremy Spencer Band – a record that might have had more of a singer/songwriter vibe, or an AOR approach, had it been recorded a few years before, but which instead comes off here in a really unique blend of rock and disco! There's plenty of guitar leads on the ... read moreCD

Spooky Tooth have grown their hair since the cover of their first album – and they've also grown their sound a bit too – into a brew that's even headier and more powerful than before!

(US pressing in a tip-on cover – SP 4194 – still sealed with a squiggle of marker at the top right corner.)
70s issue of this masterpiece of psychedelic pop – a set that really captures that key shift from R&B-influenced sounds to much headier territory on the UK scene! Spooky Tooth came to this debut with a fair bit of previous activity in other groups – and there's a core energy here ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Brown label stereo pressing. Cover has light wear.)
An onslaught of fuzz from the reformed version of Spooky Tooth – a group that has Gary Wright very firmly back in the lead on vocals, and the new addition of Mick Jones on guitar – whose lead lines give the group a whole new sense of power!

Prime classic Springsteen double album, circa 1980!

Definitely a creative high ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band do "Wrecking Ball" live at Giants Stadium and "The Ghost Of Tom Joad" live featuring Tom Morello. 12-inch, Vinyl record
One of the greatest Yes albums of the 70s – even if it isn't a Yes album at all! Instead, the set's a stunning solo project from bassist Chris Squire – and a record that shows just how much his talents were to the sound of Yes as a whole! The album's got a vibe that's very much like ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Includes the printed inner sleeve. Cover has some surface and edge wear.)
A set that's got a slightly different vibe than previous Stackridge albums – yet which also continues that special sort of hard to define quality that always made the group so unique! There's a feel to the set that's maybe a bit in keeping with the image on the cover – slight touches ... read moreCD
Really beautiful work from Stackridge – an early set, and one that's got the group working in more prog-oriented territory overall – yet still with a tightness to the tunes that avoids any side-long jams or solos that overwhelm the vocals and melody! Instrumentation includes bits of ... read moreCD
A wonderful showcase for the wide-ranging talents of Stackridge – as the set features key production work from George Martin, who really has a way of expanding the sounds at the core of their music!
