$14.99
... LP, Vinyl record album
(Original pressing in the die-cut Unipak cover. Cover has some ringwear, yellowing from age, bent portions in the die-cut, and is torn to the spine at the left side of the S.)
A fantastic debut from Sugarloaf – a group who managed to use the Hammond organ in ways that were just as strong as the guitar in most other groups! The approach here seems to draw a lot from all the best changes taking place in soulful jazz – as Jerry Corbetta manages his keyboards ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Jim Sullivan —
UFO ... LP Light In The Attic, 1969. New Copy (reissue)...
$18.9929.99
The great lost folk rock album from Jim Sullivan – who himself, literally went lost several years later – a set that's beautiful, yet just loose and ragged enough! It's a bit of a hybrid of folk and country rock, particularly in the acoustic guitars and laidback, warm vocals by ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Yma Sumac —
Miracles ... LP London, 1971. Near Mint- ...
$36.9948.99
Fantastic! This is Yma Sumac's rock album from the early 70's – and it's got a wild sound that's totally different from any of her work at Capitol! The record includes lots of electric instrumentation, and Yma's voice moves from the exotic to the psychedelic, as she sings along with some ... (Now Sound, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
One of the best moments ever from the Sun City Girls – a set recorded after the group had soaked up a fair bit of global influences on a trip to India, which really shows in the range of styles and instrumentation used on the record! The core sound is still pretty noise-based – and ... read moreCD
A British group with a surprisingly no-nonsense approach for the time – neither prog, nor hard rock, glam, or anything else that might have been big during the early 70s underground – which may well be why this set never got the fame it deserved! There's some great guitar work on the ... read moreCD
Superchunk —
Foolish ... CD Merge, 1994. Used ...
Just Sold Out!
One of those lost 60s nuggets that should have been huge – the only album ever cut by this excellent Arizona band, and a record done with a quality that matches mid 60s Byrds, Buffalo Springfield, or any other big names from the LA scene! There's a tunefulness here that really comes through ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Metaluna ... CD Wunderwerke/Bureau B (Germany), 1981. New Copy ...
$17.9919.99
One of those totally cool records from the German new wave – a set that's every bit as cartoony as you might guess from its cover, and which resonates strongly with work at the time from artists like Pyrolator or Der Plan! The music is in the territory of cold wave electronics, but warmer ... read moreCD

A hell of a record from Supertramp – the set that catapulted them into global stardom after a late 70s run of really great, but overlooked albums! The album is a pure pop masterpiece all the way through – catchy tunes with slightly deeper ideas – a nice sense of striving in the ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Includes the printed inner sleeve. Cover has light wear, some small scrapes, and lightly bent panels.)
(Includes printed inner sleeve. Cover has a cutout hole and is bent a bit at the top right corner, small pen imprints, and some wear at the bottom right corner.)

(Red label pressing. Includes the printed inner sleeve.)
Classic pop glam from Sweet – easily one of the best torchbearers of the genre in the 70s! The album's got a sweetly compressed sound that's right up there with the best of Queen – but even more rocking overall, and without any of the too-flowery or too-flashy moments. Tunes are ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Swing Family (Sauveur Mallia) —
Music Force ... LP Tele Music/Be With (UK), 1985. New Copy (reissue)...
$19.9936.99
A full on funky set from French maestro Sauveur Mallia – a record that mixes his own work on bass, keyboards, electronics, and samples with some slight touches over the top on trumpet, trombone, and saxophone too! The style is definitely a lot more 80s than some of Mallia's 70s work – ... (Sound Library, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album

A UK trio, but one with a very heady sound – music that's mostly acoustic, but which has all these great twists and turns that take the whole thing past more familiar folkish styles of the time! True, the guitars are acoustic, and the vocals have a darkly eerie vibe – but the group is ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Raucous drag strip rockers and driving R&B-fueled instrumentals by The T-Bones – killer material on Liberty from a group of young session wizards – including Hal Blaine, Glen Campbell, Leon Russell, Dave Pell, Steve Douglas and others! It's wildly fun stuff that goes all in with ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Original stereo pressing! Cover has some very light wear near the bottom, but this is a great copy.)
Maybe the biggest album ever from this very groovy 60s studio instrumental group – thanks in part to the excellent cut "No Matter What Shape (Your Stomach's In)" – used in a famous TV commercial! There's lots of other cool material that follows the same format – nicely ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Tackhead —
En Concert ... LP Plus Au Sud (France), 1988. Near Mint- ...
$14.9919.99
A fantastic set from a singer who really should have gotten bigger fame at the time – an artist who played keyboards with Doug Sahm, and definitely absorbed some of that Texas brew of sounds – but who also has a soulful style that's very much his own when he steps out in the lead! Part ... read moreCD
We love Wayne Talbert – and think he's one of the great under-discovered talents of his time! Wayne worked in the Sir Douglas Quintet, which is probably how he ended up recorded for Mercury – but he's got a sound that's very distinct, and has this really amazing mix of jazz, soul, and ... read moreCD
A really tremendous album from The Talking Heads – and a set that moves far past their already-great early records, to really show a rhythmic complexity we never would have expected! Brian Eno is helping the group in the studio again here, and the record really shows both David Byrne and Eno' ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(US pressing with Sterling stamp in the embossed cover. Includes the printed inner sleeve. Cover has some surface and edge wear.)
The final album from the Talking Heads, and a set that returns them to some of the global elements of their mid-period records, but with a vibe that shows lots of the shifting studio technology of the time! The set's almost a precursor of some of the remix modes that would show up on the world ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

A record with a sound that's as swirly as its cover – a record that's loaded to the brim with fuzzy guitar and dreamy organ lines – and served up in a style that makes the whole thing one of the most treasured albums from the short-lived psych years on Mainstream Records! The group ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A gorgeous album from the UK folk scene – vocals and guitar from Cyril Tawney, with accompaniment on concertina, melodeon, and dulcimer – all of which makes for a very haunting, moody vibe! (Folk/Country, Rock)LP, Vinyl record album
A stone classic from Chip Taylor – a very hip cat who was raised in New York, wrote a number of big pop hits in the 60s, but was always much more comfortable with country music in the end! The album's not straight country – but instead that perfect blend of rock roots and Nashville ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Burbank label pressing. Includes the Warner inner sleeve and poster. Cover has a cutout notch.)

A pop masterpiece from UK soul singer Lewis Taylor – easily his tightest album to date!

The Teen Queens were a hip R&B duo who deserve a lot more credit than their silly name might make you think. They had a style that was part raw R&B, and part 60s girl group, years before the girl group format was around long enough to become a cliche! (Soul, Rock)LP, Vinyl record album
(Mid 80s issue. Cover has lightly bet corners and a small stain.)
One of the coolest albums from the legendary Peruvian scene at the start of the 70s – served up by a group who've got a Bay Area reference in their name, and who definitely work with a mix of Latin and psychedelic elements that echo that scene – but with a special sort of vibe that's ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A sweet electro classic from Telex – one of those records that had the Euro trio years ahead of their time, and working with a sound that went onto influence a fair bit of American club, dance, and hip hop in the decade to come! The record is awash in all sorts of great electronics – ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Sex ... LP Mute (UK), 1981. New Copy (reissue)...
$29.9932.99
Very cool work from Telex – a trio who are really coming into their own on this third record, and maybe starting to resonate with some of the groups they helped inspire in the world of electro pop – particularly the more playful acts of the German new wave! As with some of those groups ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A pair of records from Tempest – a group formed by drummer Jon Hiseman after the breakup of Colosseum! First up is the self-titled Tempest record – music by a hell of a group from the glory days of the Bronze Records scene – a group who boast some fantastic guitar work from a ... read moreCD
Groovy 60s pop from the sunny brother & sister duo of Nino Tempo & April Stevens – wonderful stuff that's crafted as sweetly as can be, encapsulating influences from a wide range of pop styles of the time – and it still sounds great! This anthology features a bunch of the their ... read moreCD
One of the crowning moments of genius from 10CC – a record that has the duo of Godly & Creme really hitting their stride in the studio, and taking the group into completely different territory than on their first few records!
