Long Hair (Germany), 1973. New Copy (reissue)... $29.99 34.99
Ainigma may never have hit the big time, but that doesn't stop the group from rocking the hell out of this obscure recording from 1973 – a record that's equal parts prog and hard rock – with some incredible guitar and organ throughout! The tracks are all nice and long – side two ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Pharaway Sounds (Spain), 1974. New Copy ... $26.99
A seminal debut set from Edip Akbanyram – a 70s Turkish singer whose music is every bit as compelling as arabesk rock by Baris Manco or Erkin Koray! Like both of those artists, Edip mixes older Anatolian roots with a freakier, fuzzier style from the psych generation – mixing electric ... (Global Grooves, Rock) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Crammed (Belgium), 2022. New Copy ... $18.99 20.99
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 more LP, Vinyl record album

Crammed (Belgium), 1979. New Copy (reissue)... $15.99 18.98
One of our favorite mixing of modes from the old school – a tremendous second album from the legendary Aksak Maboul!

Now Again, 1975. New Copy (reissue)... $23.99 27.99
Wonderfully fuzzy work from Amanaz – one of the trippiest, headiest groups of the Zamrock scene of the 70s! The guitars here are very full and present – not at a hit you over the head jamming label, but with this rich sonic element that has lots of bassy undercurrents – at a ...

Warner/Nonesuch, 1982. New Copy (reissue)... $19.99 21.99
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! Laurie Anderson is in perfect form here – drawing on a strong tradition of avant garde performance, but without any of the indulgences ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Jugoton (Croatia), 1994. New Copy (reissue)... $22.99 26.99
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 more LP, Vinyl record album

Long Hair (Germany), 1974. New Copy (reissue)... $19.99 34.99
A different combo than usual for the German scene of the early 70s – a group who were maybe a bit more straightforward than some of their Krautrock contemporaries – really working some great hard rock fuzz on their solos, alongside a female lead singer who's got a pretty bold style! ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Long Hair (Germany), 1975. New Copy (reissue)... $19.99 34.99
The second album from this obscure German group – and one that definitely gets the title right, as the material here is pulled from recordings the band made on their own – woodshedding in the studio away from the mainstream! Despite their obscurity, Artkis has a sound that could have ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
East World/Universal (Japan), 1986. New Copy (reissue)... $49.99 54.99
An unusual mid 80s set from Maki Asakawa – one that follows some of the moody styles that she was really digging into at the time, but which also brings in a touch of American soul – thanks in part to work from bassist Bobby Watson, and drummer Cecil Moore – who also seems to do a ... (Japanese, Rock) read more LP, Vinyl record album
East World/Universal (Japan), 1988. New Copy (reissue)... $49.99 54.99
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! The vibe here is very ... (Japanese, Rock) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Universal (Japan), 1985. New Copy (reissue)... $49.99 54.99
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 ...

(Great Japanese pressing – with obi!)
Universal (Japan), 1983. New Copy (reissue)... $29.99 54.99
A really richly layered album from Maki Asakawa – part of that move she made into more textured material in the 80s, although still with all the deeply moody qualities that made her 70s vocals so great! This time around, there's help from a few key jazz players – Shigeru Mukai on ... (Japanese, Rock) read more LP, Vinyl record album
JVC/HMV (Japan), 1987. New Copy (reissue)... $38.99 58.99
Really great work from Japanese singer Nina Atsuko – a set that's definitely got some of the pop production that you'd expect, but which also has all these nice jazzy touches in the instrumentation – which helps give the record a mature vibe that really elevates the sound! Some songs ... (Japanese, Rock) read more LP, Vinyl record album
B-52s —
B-52s ... LP Warner/Rhino, 1979. New Copy (reissue)... $21.99 23.98
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! These guys aren't the silly group of later years here – and instead, they've got this moody darkness that's wonderful – a re-envisioned ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Roir/ORG, 1981. New Copy (reissue)... $20.99 21.99
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 more LP, Vinyl record album
Bad Brains —
Rock For Light ... LP PVC/ORG, 1983. New Copy (reissue)... $18.99 19.99
A seminal album from The Bad Brains – and a set that forever shaped the sound of hardcore in the 80s! These guys are incredibly tight throughout – no doubt because of some previous work in jazz – but they never get overindulgent or too jammy at all – and instead deliver ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Original 1983 mix!)
Capitol, 1970. New Copy (reissue)... $21.99 24.99
A fantastic classic from The Band – a set that's hardly got them cowering in the corner the way the "stage fright" title might imply – and which instead seems to have the group at their most confident during the early years, effortlessly spinning impeccable musicianship and ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Also available Stage Fright (Japanese SHM-SACD pressing) ... CD 36.99(50th Anniversary pressing – remixed and remastered, with unreleased original track sequence!)
Verve/Long Hair (France), 1970. New Copy ... $29.99 34.99
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! Bardens plays organ on most of the tracks, but he ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Blue Thumb/Traffic, 1969. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... $21.99 24.98
One of the wildest albums ever from the great Robbie Basho – as you might guess from the cover! Basho first made waves with his solo guitar work (and a bit of vocalizations) for the Takoma label, during the early years of John Fahey – but as the 60s ended, Robbie had more of a ...

Geffen, 2021. New Copy Gatefold ... $23.99 25.99
Great work from a surprisingly durable pairing – one that maybe seemed to be something of an accident at first, but which has gone on to redefine the recent careers of Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga!

Verve/Modern Harmonic, 1969. New Copy (reissue)... $23.99 24.99
Don't think "rock", think "groove" – because oud player John Berberian takes his instrument into some very groovy territory here – mixing its Mid-East roots with a sweet array of modal rhythms and psychedelic elements – all of which make for an album that's ... (Global Grooves, Rock) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Ohr (Germany), 1971. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... $27.99 29.99
An obscure set from the glory days of the Krautrock scene, but a set that's maybe a lot more hard rock than some of its more proggy German contemporaries! The songs are still nice and long, but they've also got a lot more focus too – topped with English lyrics, sewn tight with searing ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Riviera/Lion, 1972. New Copy (reissue)... $19.99
A hell of a record from the French scene of the early 70s – released by an artist who'd worked in the backdrop of many famous productions at the time, but who really bursts forth here with his own sort of special genius!

(Comes with a bonus booklet of notes!)
Pye/Long Hair (France), 1969. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... $29.99 34.99
A wonderful little set from Blonde On Blonde – a group who may have taken their name from a tune by Bob Dylan, but who have a sound that's completely different than that reference might make you expect!

One Year (180 gram pressing) ... LP Epic/4 Men With Beards, 1971. New Copy (reissue)... $18.99 21.98
Amazing solo work from ex-Zombie Colin Blunstone – his first album after parting ways with his former group – and one of our favorite albums of all time!

Parlophone, 1973. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... $25.99 26.99
One of our favorite David Bowie albums ever! Aladdin Sane was a real turning point for Bowie – recorded on the heels of the tremendously popular Ziggy Stardust album, but really pushing the boundaries past the more straight-ahead rock and glam of that record. Instead of just sitting on his ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Deram/Republic, 1967. New Copy (reissue)... $31.99 35.99
Genius, pure genius from a young David Bowie – an album that we've always treasured as much as Ziggy Stardust!

RCA/Parlophone, 1979. New Copy Gatefold ... $24.99
The brilliant consummation of Bowie's late 70s years in Berlin – a record that showed he could take the experiments in sound he was crafting with Brian Eno, and turn them back into the kind of creepily catchy rock tunes that first made him a legend! Eno's help on the record is still quite ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Remastered.)
Parlophone, 2022. New Copy ... $20.99
A great selection of alternates from the then-unissued Toy project of David Bowie – a turn of the millenium set that had him revisiting some of his earliest modes of the 60s, but with a slightly different vibe!

Parlophone, 1975. New Copy (reissue)... $24.99 25.99
A brilliant soul album! That's right, we said SOUL album!

Parlophone, 1973. New Copy (reissue)... $25.99 26.98
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!

Maybe the coolest and grooviest music we've heard from the obscure Braen's Machine sound library project from early 70s Italy – a record that's less tripped out than its predecessors, and instead has this great style that's heavy on bossa elements and funky jazz!

Tiffany/Bonfire (Italy), Early 70s. New Copy (reissue)... $26.99 29.99
A great bit of funky roots rock from Brethren – a group we only know from this one debut album, but who really knock it out of the park throughout!

Space Between (white vinyl pressing) ... LP Numero, 1980. New Copy (reissue)... $20.99 24.99
A rare treasure from that time when experimental music was sometimes getting lost in the shuffle next to new age records in the racks – partly because an album like this was only ever issued on cassette, which kept it away from some of the more serious sides of the record stores! Side one of ... (Out Sound, Rock) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Festival/Blank (Australia), 1970. New Copy (reissue)... $14.99 24.98
A record that really lives up to its title – as the whole thing's a madhouse mix of psych, Eastern instrumental modes, and almost a sense of narrative songwriting! The album begins with a weird recitation, set to lots of sitar – then opens into a great range of tripped-out styles ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Four Flies (Italy), 1969. New Copy (reissue)... $29.99 39.99
Some of the trippiest sound library material we've ever heard from Sandro Brugnolini – in part because the core group here is a psychedelic combo, which might have led to a few of the tracks being used in a short animated film on Sharon Tate and Charles Manson! Yet as with most of the great ... (Soundtracks, Rock) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Fantastic material from Tim Buckley – rare tracks recorded in 1968 and 1973, both presenting two different slices of his too-short career – and standing together as a great addition to his too-small catalog of recorded work!

Demon (UK), 1966. New Copy ... $7.99 19.99

Sun/Charly (UK), 1956. New Copy (reissue)... $5.99
A raw early classic from Sun Records – a tune that's a fantastic illustration of the way the label could really capture the fire of an artist like Sonny Burgess!

Mute, 1968. New Copy ... $25.99 26.98
Heady, hypnotic, ominous, and hard-grooving early Can – a lost set that was recorded in the late 60s, but not actually released until the early 80s – and some of the earliest, brawniest Can jams from the Malcolm Mooney years!

Spoon/Mute, 1969. New Copy (reissue)... $30.99 31.99
The groundbreaking debut of Can – a record that came out on 1969, and is every bit a part of its time – but also light-years ahead of so many of its contemporaries, with a quality that's kept the music intensely resonant over the decades!

United Artists/Mute, 1970. New Copy (reissue)... $30.99 31.99
The second album from Can – and one that the group maybe likes to think of as more of a bridge between Monster Movie and Tago Mago – tracks done for a variety of film projects, but which also still really show the quick evolution of the group at the time!

Kansas/Cinedelic (Italy), 1972. New Copy (reissue)... $32.99 38.99
A gem of a record from the Italian prog scene of the early 70s – exactly the kind of well-crafted album that really set the scene apart from the rest!

Rare live work from Johnny Cash – recorded right at the height of his late 60s fame on Columbia Records, but with a style that nicely takes his sound back to its roots!

Sky/Bureau B (Germany), 1981. New Copy (reissue)... $18.99

Transatlantic/Long Hair (France), 1973. New Copy (reissue)... $19.99 34.99

Die Kosmischen Kuriere (Germany), 1974. New Copy (reissue)... $29.99

Fantastic fusion from 70s Spain – a set that's maybe equal part jazz and rock – although very different than some of the more jamming prog of the time!

Mercury, 1983. New Copy (reissue)... $23.99 25.99
A huge breakout album for Def Leppard – and a record that maybe set the style for so many other mainstream hard rock acts in the mid 80s – thanks to a mix of crisp drums, searing guitars, and screaming vocals with an anthemic feel that really sends things over the top! And sure, it's ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Bureau B (Germany), 1989. New Copy ... $14.99
A never-issued album from German electronic geniuses Der Plan – a record that's billed as "autonomous robot product – produced by machine only" – so maybe the group held it back to prevent some sort of a robot uprising! Yet the only uprising the record might have ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

The amazing Lizzy Mercier Descloux adds one more global feather to her cap with this sweet little album – a set recorded in Rio, with help from a host of Brazilian musicians – and some special guest work from legendary trumpeter Chet Baker too!

Ze/Light In The Attic, 1988. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... Just Sold Out!
The last lovely album in a wonderful run of records from Lizzy Mercer Descloux – one of the most unique talents to work on the Ze Records imprint in the 80s – and an artist who shared plenty of the genre-crossing, global-mixing elements of her contemporaries!

Ryko/Superior Viaduct, 1970s. New Copy 2 LPs Gatefold (reissue)... $22.99 24.98
Early art punk genius from Devo – the underground material from the pre-WB years – when they were still Ohio college students!

Warner, 1982. New Copy ... $25.99
Hey Spud boy! You need this record. Definitely underrated in the grand scheme, Oh No! finds the boys rocking a much more straightforward, nerdy computer funk sound. It sort of takes a page from the 80s Kraftwerk playbook with the grid-patterned 80s computer tomfoolery, albeit with a far more ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Limited picture disc edition!)
Sire/Music On Vinyl (Netherlands), 1978. New Copy (reissue)... $35.99 38.99

Finders Keepers, Late 60s. New Copy ... $19.99 26.99
Darkly beautiful sounds from the duo of Don & Stevie Gere – a husband and wife who work here with a style that's folksy, but a bit spooky too – possibly due to the fact that the music within was recorded in their California home, and never issued for years! There's a deeply ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Also available Don & Stevie (UK pressing) ... CD 6.99
BTF (Italy), 1973. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... $29.99 34.99
The only album ever issued in by Italian prog group Duello Madre – a rock combo, but one who have plenty of jazz-based elements in the mix – and occasionally a lot more funk than you'd hear from a similar group of their nature! The lineup boasts some great sax and flute work from Pippo ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Blind Willie McTell (take 1, take 5) ... 7-inch Third Man, 1983. New Copy (pic cover)... Just Sold Out!
Two rare takes on this classic Bob Dylan tune from Infidels – both nicely different!

Columbia, 1965. New Copy (reissue)... $21.99
A pivotal moment for Bob Dylan – and maybe one of THE albums of the 60s!

Sony/Legacy, Early 80s. New Copy 2LP ... $28.99 46.98
Rare work from a time in Bob Dylan's career when he was maybe giving us too few albums – which makes all the rare material here a great addition to his early 80s run of records on Shot Of Love, Infidels, and Empire Burlesque!

Elektra, 1976. New Copy 2LP Gatefold ... $30.99 31.98
Never-issued work from The Eagles – a live set recorded at the Los Angeles Forum in 1976, right before the group issued their classic Hotel California album! That famous title tune is in the set list, but the overall performance is a nicely back to basics one – the group on stage, ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Echo & The Bunnymen —
Ocean Rain (180 gram pressing) ... LP Sire, 1984. New Copy (reissue)... $21.99 22.99
Echo & The Bunnymen at the height of their powers – able to deliver music that's as majestic as it is moody, and which nicely avoids all the cliches of the artists the group influenced in years to come!

One of the great space rock records of the 70s – the sublime debut from Embryo – a group who were a lot more unique than most of their contemporaries!

Superior Viaduct, 1983. New Copy (reissue)... $20.99 24.98
