Sonic Seasonings ... LP Columbia, Early 70s. Near Mint- 2LP Gatefold ...
$19.9924.99
A lost prog nugget from a group who mix keyboards and woodwinds in a really great way – almost complicated, but with a down to earth quality overall – and one that seems to work especially well with the French language lyrics of the set! The record's one of those obscure French sets ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Belladonna ... LP Vertigo/Mr Bongo (UK), 1972. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)...
$25.9927.98
One of the heaviest electric sets from UK trumpeter Ian Carr – and that's really saying a lot, given how much heavy work he cut with his group Nucleus! The sound here is a groundbreaking mix of acoustic horns and keyboards – trumpet from Carr, and a mix of tenor, soprano, alto, and ... (Jazz, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A really fantastic album from trumpeter Ian Carr and his legendary Nucleus group – a combo who are really right on the money here, finding their own sort of space at a level that's very different than some of the other rock/jazz projects on the UK scene at the time! There's often a lot more ... (Jazz, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Two jazz rock classics – back to back as a 2CD set! Solar Plexus was a pivotal album in the career of British jazzman Ian Carr – one that had him really opening up into some trippy, spacey grooves – adding in a lot of keyboards, kicking up the grooves, yet still never losing the ...

Martin Carthy ... LP Fontana/Topic (UK), 1965. New Copy (reissue)...
$27.9929.99
Early genius from the great Martin Carthy – the kind of set that had a huge influence on the acid folk generation to come, and one that also marks the start of a huge amount of contributions Carthy would make to the UK scene!

(2015 RSD issue on violet vinyl. Cover has a barcode sticker in back.)
The sixth volume of American Recordings from Johnny Cash – recorded in the months between June's & Johnny's passing – produced by an increasingly reverent Rick Rubin and put together with care and consideration. Cash sounds justifiably weary on these late recordings, with songs ... (Folk/Country, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(180 gram pressing from 2014. Includes the printed inner sleeve.)
The raw, mesmerizing debut of Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds! On From Her To Eternity, Cave stalks and staggers right along the line between the aggro caterwaul of The Birthday Party and the haunting moodiness of later records with the Bad Seeds – and it's as distinct and exciting as ever ... read moreCD
(Great two disc package with 5.1 DVD-audio surround mix and bonus videos!)
A slightly headier sound than before from Chad & Jeremy – music that's still in a great mix of Brit Invasion and Sunshine Pop, but which also shows a somewhat deeper sensibility too – a desire to reach past the simpler pop modes that first got the pair going here in the US! Chad ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Challengers —
K-39 ... CD Vault/Goodtime, 1964. New Copy ...
$13.9914.99
The Challengers cook it strongly here – adding in a bit more sax than before to their sweet guitar instrumental groove – almost using the instrument as a second sort of engine to give themselves even more power than before! There's a slightly deeper tone than on the group's previous ... read moreCD
A shot of tequila and a whole lot more – one of the few albums issued by the legendary Champs, a group who helped reinvent the sound of instrumental rock at the start of the 60s! The group's classic "Tequila" is a very familiar mix of raunchy sax, strutting guitar, and some ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Original 2-color label pressing! Cover has a split bottom seam with wide clear tape, light wear on spine, light surface wear & aging.)
A never-issued album from Cali surf legends The Chantays – and a set that offers up a surprisingly nice twist at this late point in their career! The surf guitars of before are still very much in place, but the rhythms and production have changed in a nice way – reflecting that moment ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Sweet girl group classic stuff from the 50s, most of it recorded for George Goldner's End label. This 18 track set includes many of their big singles like "Prayer", "He's Gone", and "Every Night (I Pray)", but it's also got a number of b-sides and unreleased tracks ... (Soul, Rock)read moreCD

Americana ... CD Mooncrest (UK), Early 2000s. Used 2 CDs ...
$8.99
A title that seems to take off from Chubby Checker's bit trademark hit, but the overall groove is a lot better than you might expect – set for twisting, sure, but in a nicely rough and ready style that's almost equal parts soul and R&B! Some tunes are familiar, but twist-ified – ... (Soul, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Orange label pressing with deep groove. Cover has surface wear & aging, light edge wear.)
Recorded at Muscle Shoals Sound, the studio referenced in the title of the album, and presented in a wonderful cover image that has Cher standing outside the tiny facility with a host of legendary studio players that include Eddie Hinton, Jimmy Johnson, Barry Beckett, and Roger Hawkins! Sonny's ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(180 gram clear & purple vinyl pressing. Includes the insert.)
A really cool Canadian group from the 60s – an all-native lineup of members from the Tsimshian Nation – but working here in a raw garagey style that's totally great! The drums are lean and powerful, guitar follows suit, and vocals often have a surprisingly charming quality – ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Red label stereo pressing. Vinyl has a small mark that clicks a bit in between "No Survivors" and "I Realize". Cover has ringwear, aging, heavy wear and splitting in the top seam, center split in the bottom seam, and application wrinkles.)
Chordettes —
Chordettes ... LP Cadence, 1957. Near Mint- ...
Just Sold Out!
About as classic as you can get for The Chordettes – a record issued right at the height of their "Mr Sandman" fame – and a treasure trove of lesser-known tracks done with a very similar feel! There's a bit more production here than in the group's earliest work – a nice ... (Vocalists, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Original pressing with deep groove. Cover looks great, with minimal wear.)
A long-overdue look at a little-heard side of the career of 60s pop giant Lou Christie – his great but ill-fated recordings for Columbia Records – most of which appear here for the first time ever! Lou hit the label right after a massive hit for MGM – and Columbia gave him plenty ... read moreCD

Lou Christie ... LP Three Brothers, 1974. Near Mint- ...
$4.99
The one-and-only album by upstate New York's wonderfully trippy psych-folk Chrysalis – a buried rock treasure from 1968. Definition is a strange title for the record, as the group refuses to be bound to any one – mixing laidback, trippy psychedelia, oddball folk, and meandering strains ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Stereo gatefold pressing, with cool foil artwork inside! Cover has surface wear.)
A really unique record, one that seems to mix some of the spacey sounds of the electronic ambient world of the early 80s underground with more tuneful, song-based modes of the post-punk generation – all at a level that seems to move effortlessly between both sorts of styles! There's ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

A really rare slice of work from legendary UK singer Petula Clark – an artist you'll know best for her swinging pop records of the 60s, but who also cut a fair bit of music in other European languages too! Petula was huge on our shores with her "Downtown" hit in the mid 60s – ... (Vocalists, Rock)read moreCD
One of the most stunning debut albums of the 70s – and a set that burst on the scene with a sound that summed up a generation, but which had never been heard this clearly before! This self-titled Clash album was different from other landmarks of the time – work by the Sex Pistols, ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Original US pressing with Sterling stamp/JS etch. Includes the printed inner sleeve. Cover has light wear.)
The second album from The Clash – ferocious, melodic and masterful bits of barbed greatness from the group – the greatest flaw of which is that it's not the first album. They're still completely great, playing in peak form even with the less shambling, slightly more polished production ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(US orange label pressing in the block font cover. Cover has minimal wear.)
The longest album ever from The Clash – a stunning triple LP set that really shows the group bristling with new ideas and energy throughout!
