Rhino (Italy), 1978. New Copy ... $38.99
Cool tracks for a 70s Italian cartoon – done in a way that's a lot more rockish than you might expect! Lyrics are all Italian, and most tunes have a vibe that's playful, but filled with fuzzy guitar too – almost glammish in approach, but with lots of other unusual elements taking place ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Wah Wah (Spain), 1976. New Copy ... $29.99
The last album from the legendary early run of Agitation Free – and a set that definitely shows the group at the top of their game!

Air —
Moon Safari (glow in the dark vinyl) ... LP Parlophone, 1998. New Copy (reissue)... $19.99 21.98
The classic debut of Air – one of the fresher avant pop albums of the late 90s to say the least, and one of the best since then, too!

Crammed (Belgium), 1979. New Copy (reissue)... $16.99 18.98

Vam (Mexico), 1976. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... $11.99
A great mid 70s record by Antorcha – whose late 60s records as Las Antorchas were a great mix of styles – from beat, to garage, mod and psych – and by this point in the mid 70s, shortened their name and honed their groove into heavier, moodier style that's even better! Heavy ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Be With (UK), 2003. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... $14.99 28.98
Easygoing timeless guitar pop from John Stirratt and Pat Sansone – the former always of Wilco, the latter to officially join soon after – but the Autumn Defense remains a vital, remarkably different force of its own!

Harvest/4 Men With Beards, 1969. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... Just Sold Out!
A wonderful departure for Kevin Ayers – an album that's a lot lighter and more whimsical than his original fame with Soft Machine!

B-52s (colored vinyl) ... LP Warner/Rhino, 1979. New Copy (reissue)... Just Sold Out!
A hell of a debut from The B-52s – and a record that's become surprisingly timeless over the years, despite a retro-styled approach by the group!

Wild Planet (colored vinyl) ... LP Warner/Rhino, 1980. New Copy (reissue)... Just Sold Out!
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 more LP, Vinyl record album

Red/Wah Wah (Spain), 1978. New Copy (reissue)... $29.99
JB Banfi gets a big nod from Klaus Schulze on the back cover of this rare 70s set – and for good reason, too – as the music's very much in the best analogue electronic work that Schulze himself helped to pioneer at the time – even though Klaus claims that Banfi is an even better ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

ESP, 1982. New Copy ... $23.99
A breathtakingly beautiful recording of the legendary Robbie Basho – and a much-needed addition to his too-small catalog of albums!

Superior Viaduct, 1972. New Copy Gatefold ... $23.99
A really full-on early set from Franco Battiato – a set that's maybe halfway between some of his more avant compositions and some of the modes of the Italian prog scene at the time!

Superior Viaduct, 1973. New Copy 2LP (reissue)... $23.99
A key turning point in the career of Italian modernist Franco Battiato – as he leaves behind the straighter progressive format of his first two albums, and moves into a mode that's much more experimental! The album features four long compositions – all of which show Battiato ... (Out Sound, Rock) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Sommor (Spain), Mid 70s. New Copy ... $25.99
A weird little Swedish group from the 70s – one who began this set by writing all the songs in English, then slowly transformed them into their native language – which might be why they sound so unusual!

A back-to-basics album of sorts – shorter, catchier songs recorded by the group after the collapse of Smile – but a record that still has some really wonderful moments overall – and which shows that The Beach Boys would never be the same after Pet Sounds!

Acid Jazz (UK), 2015. New Copy ... $22.99
A pretty great live set from Matt Berry – one that strongly shows that his interest in music isn't just a side project for the comedian!

David Bowie's late career peak arrived just days before he left us!

Maybe the greatest moment ever from Country Joe & The Fish – an insane blend of politics, psychedelia, rock roots, and more – all wrapped up in a nice of carnival-esque style that really lives up to the group's name!

Hit-Ton Schalllatten/Numero, 1967. New Copy (reissue)... $16.99 19.98
A gem of a record from one of the coolest UK groups of the 60s – served up here in a German release that maybe gives The Creation one of their most vibrant covers ever! Despite the European issue of the material, the tracks here are all Brit brilliance from the group and producer Shel Talmy ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Warner/Esoteric (UK), 1970. New Copy (reissue)... $24.99
The debut album from Curved Air – a group who had a decidedly different take on the proggish styles of the start of the 70s! For one thing, the group took their name from a Terry Riley tune – already showing their higher consciousness when it came to music – and the lineup also ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Flying Dutchman/Modern Harmonic, 1967. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... $23.99 24.99
A very wild soundtrack! The film is about The Minx, a crew of lovelies trained in the art of sensual pleasure and corporate espionage – and the original music for the film, by the rock group The Cyrkle, is about as cool as you'd expect from a theme like that! Some cuts are straight trippy ... (Soundtracks, Rock) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Innovative Leisure, 2018. New Copy ... $14.99 19.99

Dead Moon —
Crack In The System ... LP Mississippi, 1994. New Copy (reissue)... $11.99
A timeless treasure from Dead Moon – a record that could have been made as far back as the late 70s scene in New York, or the mid 80s in the UK, or even in the recent American underground – but which stands as one of the key primal offering from this 90s Portland trio! The music wraps ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Mississippi, 1995. New Copy ... $11.99
Dead Moon right in the middle of their great 90s run – making music that's so timelessly punk, it could be mid 70s New York, early 80s Los Angeles, or the ongoing underground in the best smaller scenes around the US! The trio have a tremendous sense of power, while doing just a little – ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Death —
For The Whole World To See ... LP Drag City, 1975. New Copy ... $16.99 18.98
A pre-punk bit of charged, hard grooving Motor City rock from Death – a lost record that takes a tightly coiled, blazing approach to their influences of garage rock and psychedelia – and a record that's all the better in that it was recorded way back in 1975! To put it bluntly, music ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Capitol, 2018. New Copy Gatefold ... $24.99 25.98
A beauty from The Decemberists! I'll Be Your Girl is as lyrically inventive and with a lot of the modern folk rock characteristics of what's made them such a rightly beloved band the past...wow, it's really been more than 15 years at this point...but there are lots of new shades and layers here. ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Niodrara/Tompkins Square, 1978. New Copy (reissue)... $18.99
The only 70s album ever issued by guitarist Rick Deitrick – a set that was produced in a very small print run of copies – which were then sold at shows and in a few special record stores, and also left by Deitrick on woodland trails – in the hopes that hikers might stumble upon ...

Tompkins Square, 1978. New Copy (reissue)... $9.99 18.99
Beautiful solo guitar work from Rick Deitrick – a very underground figure in the already-underground world of acoustic material in the late 70s!

Tramp (Germany), 1977. New Copy ... $4.99
"Barrows Blues" has this really unusual groove – a mix of folksy guitar and saxophone, tied together in this choppy funk intro to the tune – which John then sings over with this style that's as evocative as the instrumentation! "High & Dry" continues the folk ... (Funky 45's, Rock) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Sleeping Bag, 1981. New Copy 2LP (reissue)... $18.99 20.98
An incredible full album from Dinosaur L – the legendary New York dancefloor project of Arthur Russell!

Go Bang! (parts 1 & 2) ... 7-inch Sleeping Bag/Get On Down, 1982. New Copy (reissue)... $8.99 9.98
A spacey disco classic! "Go Bang" is a wonderful tune – with a jaunty vocal refrain that's laid over some off-kilter keyboard rhythms infused with bass. Arthur Russell produced and Francois K mixed – and this great vinyl single features the complete cut – Part 1 on one ... (Funky 45's, Rock) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Luaka Bop, 2018. New Copy ... $19.99 20.99
You've heard Domenico before as part of the groundbreaking +2 trio with Kassin and Moreno Veloso – but this is only the second time the singer has worked on his own, and the first that he's given us his full name on the cover!

Epic/Sundazed, 1968. New Copy (reissue)... $26.99 28.99
Easily one of the headiest Donovan albums of the 60s – a record that moves past the simple psychedelic pop of earlier hits, and into a range of mind-expanding themes and styles! There's a cerebral quality here that seems to take hold even on the simpler, catchier tunes – a deeply ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Epic/Sundazed, 1967. New Copy (reissue)... $26.99 28.99
Easily one of Donovan's most successful albums – but also a brilliant blend of folk and jazz that forged a bold new sound in the 60s – here in the original mono mix!

On Records, 1972. New Copy (reissue)... $11.99
Early 70s psych folk from DR Hooker – looking pretty biblical in the cover photo – with a spiritual tilt to some of the lyrics, but in a pretty tripped out way – and a wild mix of styles, from easygoing, approachable folk pop, to untamed, fuzzed out psychedelia! We were expecting ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Atco, 1971. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... $14.99
Mac really steps out on this one – pushing past his usual hip studio take on New Orleans soul, to a more expansive style that includes performances by a host of surprise guests like Mick Jagger, Eric Clapton, PP Arnold, Graham Bond, and Doris Troy.

Rural/Modern Harmonic, Early 70s. New Copy 2LP Gatefold (reissue)... Just Sold Out!
A fantastic little surf soundtrack record – and one that's very different than both the guitar instrumental and jazz-based albums that showed up earlier in the genre!

Columbia, 1976. New Copy (reissue)... $14.99 20.98
A live document of the mid 70s Rolling Thunder Revue era!

Columbia, 1981. New Copy (reissue)... $14.99 20.98
Maybe the most underrated Dylan album, from a one time underrated period all together – which is rightly changing these days!

Sweet and salty psych-soul-rock-funk from Adrian Quesada and Shawn Lee, working together as The Electric Peanut Butter Company!
