AB Skhy ... LP MGM, 1969. Very Good ...
$2.996.99
AB Skhy are one of those totally great late 60s groups who never fully got their due – overflowing with instrumental chops and bearing a really sharp sound – but never hitting the mark that they should have with this well-done debut! The group push blues influences into psych, and come ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Really fantastic sounds from The Action – a set that maybe has them stepping a bit from mod to psych, but still with all the catchier elements of their earlier work! There's a very open-minded set of production going on here – a bit like the shift that Small Faces took with Ogden's Nut ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

... LP, Vinyl record album
(Stereo pressing. Cover has light wear and a mostly split spine. Labels have some pencil.)
A completely obscure gem from the Venezuelan scene of the 70s – not Latin music at all, but instead a wicked bit of jazzy prog played by a group who are totally tight, and really take off right from the start! There's a bit of vocals, but really most of the set is instrumental, with a ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Advancement ... LP Philips/Cosmic Rock, 1969. New Copy (reissue)...
$24.9926.99
Dreamy instrumental work by this one-off combo – a group that includes members of Bill Plummer's Cosmic Brotherhood and Gabor Szabo's late 60s band – all coming together with styles that are even more exotic than those ensembles! The style here is often quite laidback – a bit ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
The swaggering, hard grooving and hard rocking debut of Aerosmith! While "Dream On" gets as much or more rock radio play than any song should ever need, it's actually pretty easy to overlook just how good the rest of the record is. They may borrow the bluesy swagger of the Stones and ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Their hits of the 70s including, "Dream On", "Sweet Emotion", "Walk This Way", "Last Child", "Draw The Line", "Come Together", and more. LP, Vinyl record album
(US pressing with Sterling stamp in the textured cover with quotation marks. Cover has some ringwear, edge wear, and is lightly bent at the opening. Includes the printed inner sleeve.)
A British rock combo, but one with a distinctly jazzy feel – one that's often quite funky at times too! The core instrumentation is heavy on keyboards and guitar, set over some tightly rhythm bass and drums – often moving with some hip jazzy changes in the mix, and a nice sense of ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Jan Akkerman —
Tabernakel ... LP Atco, 1973. Very Good Gatefold ...
$1.99
Guitarist Jan Akkerman bridges many worlds here – deftly stepping between spare acoustic guitar modes and some much more dynamic electric ones – but all with a sense of care and vision that really makes the record come together! The set begins with a few themes from John Dowland, ... (Jazz, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Cover has a split bottom, splitting on top seam, edge wear. Includes Atlantic inner sleeve.)
If the "figures" in the title here sounds a bit familiar, it's because Figures was a great return to form for the legendary Aksak Maboul – a record that showed that their unusual mix of sounds and styles was alive and well into the 21st Century – used here as a platform for ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

... LP, Vinyl record album
(Clear vinyl pressing. Includes the heavy inner sleeves.)
That's a Texas image on the cover, which is pretty fitting for the sound of Alamo – as they've got a really heady brew of psych, hard rock, and southern elements – all forged together with a sound that would have been right at home on early 70s Capricorn Records! The group are part of ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Laid Back ... LP Capricorn, 1973. Near Mint- Gatefold ...
$19.99

(Tan label pressing with small rim text. Includes insert. Cover has small splits on the seams and light surface wear.)
The second album from the Allman Brothers, and maybe the one where their sound really comes together – an incredibly chromatic approach to long-spun work on guitar – almost influenced by jazz at times, and definitely very different than some of the more jamming work of the scenes on the ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Dire A Mi Gente ... LP Munster (Spain), 1969. New Copy (reissue)...
$29.9933.99
Ana and Jaime may look like post-punk artists on the front cover, but they've got a style here that's perfect for the 1969 date of the recording – a really cool mode that mixes mainstream Latin pop with some killer psychedelic touches – served up with lots of echo in the production, ...

One of the greatest albums to come from the New York underground of the early 80s – even if it was a relatively big "hit" on a major label!

A really unique album from Yugoslavian group Angel's Breath – one recorded in Brazil, which might come as no surprise, given that one of the members of the duo is Mitar Subotic Suba – who you'll also know from his groundbreaking album Sao Paulo Confessions! Suba got his start in Serbia ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A record that has The Animals at the crossroads – working without the piano and organ of Alan Price, but with an even more rising sense of power from Eric Burdon – who's really coming into his own as a singer, and turning out to be a surprisingly great songwriter too! The group still ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Not a live recording from the mighty Animals, but a set that was issued during a year when the group were taking the American stages by storm – put together from extra material that was only issued on their UK debut album, plus UK Animal Tracks material, and a few singles too! The set's ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Annette sings songs from the film Beach Party – in which she starred – plus some other non-film numbers that round out the set, and make it a full album of vocal tracks, all done in a tight 60s girl pop mode. Titles include "Promise Him Anything", "Beach Party", ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Beautifully sweet and jazzy from the lovely Isabelle Antena – recording here under her own name, but still very much in the mode of the French trio from which she emerged!

$39.9949.99
There's a cinematic look to the cover of this set by singer Tomoko Aran – and there's almost a cinematic presentation to the music too – but all in the best sort of 80s style you might hope for at the time! The work was put together by arranger Hideo Saito and Toru Shigemi – and ... (Japanese, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Tomoko Aran sound a fair bit jazzier here at points than some of her other 80s work on the Japanese scene – but she also follows up those moments with more than enough of the catchy rockish tunes that made her such a big star at the time!

Explosive ... LP Golden Pavilion (Portugal), 1980. New Copy (reissue)...
$16.9918.99
A sweet set of keyboard-heavy tracks – a relatively obscure Italian sound library set from the start of the 80s, and one that's got a stark sound that's very much in the spirit of its cover! The tunes are mighty lean – often keyboards with just a bit of rhythm – a setup that's ... (Sound Library, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A record that's got hardly any focus on the vocals at all, and which hardly needs them either – as the set's in that best 70s prog tradition that really lets all the instruments to all the "singing" in the music! The group's from Argentina, and serve up a fusion-influenced style at ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Individually numbered limited edition of 100 – on randomly colored vinyl – blue, red, orange or silver.)
The landmark first album from Joan Armatrading – a singer who's almost a genre unto herself!

The second tripped-out set from Ars Nova – an under-remembered late 60s group who had a great talent for blending together a range of different styles!

A beautifully moody record fron Maki Asakawa, and a set that may well be one of her most striking ever – thanks to a stripped-down approach to recording that often mixes her vocals with just a bit of piano and saxophone – handled by Toshiyuki Honda throughout!

Maki Asakawa looks as dark and moody as ever on the cover, but there's actually a few moments here that seem to have a spark of positivity – although maybe one that's just in the instrumentation and production, which seem to borrow a bit from some of the darker side of the UK spectrum at the ...

A groovy groovy soundtrack that contains one of the Association's greatest songs!

Four incredible albums from Hammond legend Brian Auger – a key link between jazz and the headier sounds of the UK scene at the end of the 60s!

The album that really broke the B52s out of the box – the one that took them from being an underground favorite in the clubs and the party scene, to being the kind of group that finally got the exposure they deserved! Of course, some of the help here comes from superproducers Nile Rodgers ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
They may look goofy on the cover, but the young B-52s are incredible here – working with this spare sense of power that almost makes us think that we didn't need most of what happened in rock and roll during the 70s – given the way these guys can distill a mood or moment down to just a ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

A hell of a record from one of the key groups who put the "hard" in the American hardcore scene – and a record that's so blisteringly intense, we still sometimes have to check to make sure we've got it on the right speed! Although Bad Brains may fly the flag of the Rastas, and ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Out of the wreckage of Cream came some very hip grooves! Ginger Baker was the hippest of the group's 3 members – and although he's often credited by soul fans for his work with Fela, he should also get hats off for his work with the group Air Force.

Fantastic solo work from Peter Bardens – an artist who'd later gain fame as the lead singer of Camel, but who's even more fantastic here on his own – working in a trippy blend of modes that's equally balanced between prog and psych!
