Naz Nomad & The Nightmares (The Damned) —
Give Daddy The Knife Cindy ... LP Big Beat/Ace (UK), 1984. New Copy (reissue)...
Just Sold Out!
Looks like a 60s soundtrack, but the set's actually an unusual psychedelic project by The Damned – released as if the whole thing was a record designed to accompany one of those schlocky AIP exploitation films from years back – but actually better than most of those albums from a ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
The second full album from Nazz – a set that has Todd Rundgren extending even more dominance over the group through his original songs and arrangements – and, we're willing to guess, a fair bit of production work too – even though that's credited here to the entire band! Rundgren' ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Fred Neil ... CD Capitol/Water, 1966. Used ...
$26.99
Amazing stuff – the first album by Fred Neil, one of the 60s' most underrated singer/songwriters! The album is really one of the best places to start with Fred's work – as it's got a rough folksy quality that's really wonderful, and very much in the spirit of Tim Hardin, with whom we'd ... read moreCD
Sandy Nelson —
Boogaloo Beat ... LP Liberty, Late 60s. Very Good+ ...
Just Sold Out!
Groovy stuff from Sandy Nelson – one of his best albums ever! Despite the title, this isn't exactly the Latin soul adventure you might think – but it is a nice batch of drum-heavy instrumentals, with a good soul boogaloo beat to them. The best tracks are the ones with "boogaloo&qu ... (Now Sound, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album

$11.9912.99
Gently beautiful work from Dom La Nena – a set recorded in Lisbon, but with echoes of French chanson and Brazilian bossa – all given a contemporary twist, but in a very subtle way! Dom is probably one of the most understated artists issued by the Six Degrees label – very personal ... (Brazil, Rock)read moreCD
One of the most street-worthy tracks ever issued by New Order – a record that's as much an important part of the Factory Records legacy as it is the early days of hip hop! There's a strongly breaking quality to the rhythms – given help from Arthur Baker – and the tune's got its ... read more12-inch, Vinyl record
One of the first really catchy songs to ever come from New Order – but served up here on a single that still retains some of the moodier elements of their Joy Division years! At some level, "Everything's Gone Green" is almost a blueprint for everything that would follow – ... read more12-inch, Vinyl record
(Original pressing. Cover is lightly bent at the top right corner.)
"Murder" is a great statement of evolution from New Order – a track that has a title that would have been right at home in the Joy Division years, and the same sort of heavy drums you'd hear on Closer – but a more far-reaching sense of progression as the murky vocals mix with ...

Groovy sounds arranged by Lincoln Mayorga, Jack Nitszche, and Mort Garson – with a touch of the baroque-pop sounds of the Left Banke! LP, Vinyl record album
(Mono pressing. Cover has some light wear, and one slightly bumped corner.)
Some of the heaviest work to come from the African scene of the 70s – the initial offering of the Ngozi Family – a group who clearly take strong inspiration from the Cream years of the UK scene, but who also come across with a grittier, punkier vibe overall – thanks to lean, ... (Global Grooves, Rock)read moreCD
The second, and possibly the most ambitious album the Brit psych-art soul unit led by Keith Emerson's showy, dense work on Hammond organ and keyboards. The group always had a theatrical approach, which really shows on the groups nuevo classical, psychological comedy song cycle! LP, Vinyl record album
Includes "Makin' Whoopee", "Nevertheless", "You Made Me Love You", "I Wonder Who's Kissing Her Now", "For Me & My Gal", and "It Had To Be You". 7-inch, Vinyl record
A collection of unreleased later work from the great Harry Nilsson – tracks that push the genius of his RCA material ever forward into the 90s, but without ever losing any of his charm or spirit! Van Dyke Parks helped out on some of these tracks, and the material definitely has that cut-above ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Harry Nilsson —

One of the wilder sets from Nillsson – careening from lovely piano pop with romantic vocals, to spaced out, good humored potty mouth excess – near honky tonk, to fuzzy pop rock – if you like Nilsson at his most unhinged, this is a great one! It's a stunner, actually – with ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

A very weird variation on Harry Nilsson's excellent animated soundtrack for The Point – done here in an unusual British version, with post-Monkees work by Davy Jones as Oblio, and Micky Dolenz as Count's Kid and Leafman! LP, Vinyl record album
A deeply dark album from Nine Inch Nails – music done for the 90s videogame Quake, and which marked one of the first times a big-name act was providing the score for such a format! The music here is even heavier and murkier than the group's better-known records – almost experimental, ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Brilliant early work from Nitty Gritty Dirt Band – a group who grew up in the same Cali sunshine that birthed The Byrds, but who definitely took a very unique path in the way they blended together folk, rock, and country! These guys show their wit on their sleeves a bit more than in later ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

A never-issued album from the great Jack Nitzsche – maybe one of his most down to earth recordings of the 70s, and one with a bit more ties to the studio roots that Jack had working with the hippest cats on the LA scene in the 60s! The set is a collaboration with Robert Downey – the ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

A fantastic electro classic! "Warm Leatherette" is one of those amazing historical tracks that never dates – a darkly grooving late 70s club number that takes all the electronics of Kraftwerk, and focuses them into a dark agenda that still sends chills down our spine! 12-inch, Vinyl record
Seminal sounds from trumpeter Ian Carr and his Nucleus group of the early 70s – maybe one of the few jazz rock groups that was ever able to work with a fair bit of jazz in their sound! Unlike his contemporaries, who often started in rock first, then added some horns – Carr was already ... (Jazz, Rock)read moreCD

Wonderfully trippy sounds from Mike Nyoni – one of the funkier talents in the Zamrock scene of the 70s – even though he also works with lots of the slight psychedelic touches of other contemporaries too! Mike's style on guitar is a bit too loose to be funk, but it's also got this nice ... (Global Grooves, Rock)read moreCD
Produced and arranged by Arif Mardin – with titles that include "Upstairs By A Chinese Lamp", "Map To The Treasure", "Up On The Roof", "Been On A Train", and "Blackpatch". LP, Vinyl record album
Laura Nyro's first album ever – and even at this early point, Nyro sounds wonderful – a fair bit more soulful than most other female pop singers of her time – with a fully-fleshed out approach to the vocals that's mature and sensitive, and almost a bit more confident at times than ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Laura Nyro's second album in her legendary early run for Columbia Records – and an effort that's a bit more dramatic than the first! Laura's handling all arrangements herself this time, and they're conducted by Jimmy Haskell – but the overall sound is almost as spare as if Nyro were ... read moreCD

American 60s hits, completely recast by the orchestra of Andrew Oldham – a cat you might know best as the manager of the Rolling Stones, but who also has a great way with a groove in the studio!

Wonderful easy grooves – from an orchestra leader who couldn't read a note of music!
