Mike Oldfield —
Hergest Ridge ... LP Virgin, 1974. Near Mint- ...
Just Sold Out!
A beautiful follow up to Tubular Bells by Mike Oldfield – even if the slow building success of that classic first album ended up literally bypassing the newer Hergest Ridge on the charts at the time! Hergest Ridge, like its famous predecessor, it's the album is of a piece, in 2 parts, and ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Original French pressing in the "New Mike Oldfield" cover, bent a bit at the edges.)
Easily one of the most successful albums of the British jazz rock years – but still a longtime favorite of ours as well!

(Mono rainbow label pressing. Cover has a cutout hole, light ring wear.)
Insane grooves from arranger Mustafa Ozkent – an artist who was to Turkey what Lalo Schifrin was to the US in the 70s! Like Lalo, Mustafa had a great ear for mixing funkier rhythms and fuller orchestrations – often with odd instrumental twists and turns that bubble over with a fair bit ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A strange spacey soundtrack from mid 80s Spain – one composed for a daytime TV show, but with a weird electronic vibe that must have shocked the kids who were watching at the time! The music has some echoes of the cooler side of the German new wave – not the darkness of the cold wave ... (Soundtracks, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Very cool grooves from Tony Palkovic – an artist who's kind of a one man soul band in himself – playing keyboards and guitar over drum machine riffs – on these tracks that are laidback, soulful, and instrumental – almost serving up a smoother take on the territory of 80s ...

(Black label pressing with Sterling stamp. Cover is bent at the top left corner.)
A very cool group, and one who are every bit as groovy as they look on the cover – a hip early 70s Indonesian quartet, and one who mix together equal parts rock and funk – but all with a very trippy sound throughout! These guys are incredible – an under-discovered group who've ... (Global Grooves, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
The last of Van Dyke Parks' classic early trio of albums for Warner Brothers – and possibly the straightest of the bunch!

Maison Rose ... LP Ballon Noir (France), 1977. Near Mint- Gatefold ...
$43.9949.99
An album of fragile beauty and buried darkness – in a space that's somewhere between the work of Nico and Brigitte Fontaine, but a fair bit sweeter overall! Emmanuelle Parrenin sings here in a timeless style that might almost be called folksy – especially in the return to tradition ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Limited Lion reissue from 2008, in fantastic shape, with insert.)

X-Dreams ... LP Tomato, 1979. Very Good ...
$11.99
Pretty wild stuff from Annette Peacock – almost a "no wave" record at times, with lots of quirky art rock overtones next to the jazz vocal stylings that are more of her typical bag.

The incredible debut from Pearls Before Swine – a group who were a bit late to the New York folk party of the 60s – but at a level that really helped them evolve past the rest of their scene!

Quite a weird little record – part psychedelia, but with some really rootsy elements – and also some odd use of recorded music as well!

A German group, but one who've got a sweet, sunny sound that would have been right at home in the Cali scene of the 70s!

The first album from Shawn Phillips – featuring Phillips recording in London with members of Traffic backing him up – in a style that's a great extrapolation of folksy and bluesy roots with some of the hipper styles going down in England at the end of the 60s.
