A fantastic classic material from Savoy Brown!

(Mid 80s issue. Cover has a bit of peeling and some remnants from price sticker removal.)
The last Savoy Brown album to feature the duo of Kim Simmonds and Paul Raymond – and a record that still holds on to all the classic power of the group!

$9.99
If you think you know Boz Scaggs, think again – because this early Columbia album features a whole different sound!

(US pressing. Cover has light wear, bumped corners, and a small chewed portion at the opening.)
One of the great fake live albums of the 60s – a set that promises to be a concert performance from the title and cover, but which actually just features The Seeds playing live together in the studio!

70s geekazoid hi-fi culture at it's finest! The folks at JBL put together this 2LP set as sort of a "bible" of a 70's understanding of hi-fi – and it's a weird mix of documentary discussion, speaker demonstration, and rock tracks by the likes of Alex Harvey and Hoyt Axton.
