Air's spacey stripped-down approach to new grooves, that hints at a very lounge-y feel, without ever diving into it headlong, with a nod to ethereal past sounds, all the while breaking new groupd of their own! Haunting, beautiful, spare, and without any of the cliches that you might find in many ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Later pressing from 1999, including extra tracks "Californie" and "Gordini Mix", in the die-cut cover with heavy inner sleeve. Vinyl has a couple of light cosmetic sleeve marks. Cover has light wear.)

$29.99
A rare album from Hollywood studio musicians turned garage rock heroes Davie Allan & The Arrows!

Early work from Ted Nugent – working here as the searing lead guitarist of the mighty Amboy Dukes!

Aorta —
Aorta ... LP Columbia, Late 60s. Very Good Gatefold ...
Just Sold Out!
A lost heavy rock classic from the Dunwich Production team – recorded in Michigan, but with extra orchestral backing in Chicago – for an approach that gives the record a slightly pop quality that tempers the harder rock sound nicely. The songs are actually pretty catchy, in a post-Summe ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(360 Sound stereo pressing with 1B/1B matrix. Cover has light wear with a light horizontal crease along.)
Mid 60s concept pop from Appletree Theatre – a mix of unpredictable baroque pop, soaring string laden tunes, and more stripped down and moody numbers – and programmed as acts, in keeping with the theatre mode! What's most impressive, other than the tuneful songcraft, is that it never ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Stereo Verve Forecast pressing. Cover has a cutout hole.)
A groovy groovy soundtrack that contains one of the Association's greatest songs!

Back Door ... LP Warner, 1973. Very Good+ Gatefold ...
$19.99
A hard-jamming bit of jazz rock – with lots of free solo work on alto and soprano sax by Ron Aspery, and a pretty strong power-trio instrumental format from Tony Hicks on drums and Colin Hodgkinson on bass. The album's more jamming than it is funky, but there's some pretty great playing on ... (Jazz, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(White label promo. Cover has a promo sticker in the top left corner.)
The kind of overlooked, understated gem that should have put Badfinger at the top of the charts in the mid 70s – a record of impeccable songwriting, really great production, and a refinement of an earlier musical ideal that really points the way forward – all while avoiding most of the ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

One of the crowning moments of Bill Nelson and Be Bop Deluxe – a set in which it seemed that everything the group was trying for really came together – in a mode that's both tuneful and timeless, and which – a bit like Sparks or 10CC – was slightly out of time with the rest ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Beatles —
Revolver ... LP Apple/EMI, 1966. Very Good ...
$19.99
Maybe our favorite Beatles album ever – a key set that bridges the catchiness of the early years and the sharper ideas of later albums – with a slightly sinister undercurrent that really keeps things fresh!

Nice bit of rockin' funky soul by a band that we know little about, but who seem to be an LA rock band that's obsessed with soul music.

(Liberty/UA pressing. Cover has some surface wear.)
The last album from the legendary Bonzo Dog Band – issued at a time when the group were going their separate ways, hence the somewhat ironic title!

(Original US pressing, with postcard intact! Cover has a cut corner.)
Arguably one of the greatest rock and roll albums of all time – and the key flowering of the partnership between David Bowie and Mick Ronson!
