A great early 70s effort from Carlos Santana – one that finds him moving in a more jazzy direction, with supple rhythms underpinning his guitar solos! There's even some outright funky moments, with the overall sound leaning towards a more spiritual vibe – no doubt the influence of ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Original pressing in the embossed cover, still in the shrink with obi across the top! Cover has some discoloration from age.)
Nanako Sato —
Funny Walkin ... LP Blow Up/Lawson (Japan), 1977. New Copy (reissue)...
$49.9954.99
A 70s classic from Nanako Sato – a singer with a great mix of sweet, sultry styles – and one who often brought a bit of jazz into her work as well, even though the record's not exactly a jazz album overall! Arrangements and keyboards are by Yuji Ohno, an artist who always knew how to ... (Japanese, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Masahiko Satoh & Soundbreakers —
Amalgamation ... CD Drone Syndicate, Early 70s. New Copy ...
Just Sold Out!
One of the most tripped-out albums we've ever heard from Japanese keyboardist Masahiko Satoh – and that's saying a lot, considering some of his other avant sessions of the 70s! This one's a really free-form jam – recorded so that each of the two long tunes takes up a side of the record ... (Jazz, Rock)read moreCD
An incredible early album from the LA scene – very different than the hardcore and the new wave that was dominating the city at the time – and done in a style that's much more UK post-punk overall – almost with a feel that's like some of the best early releases on Factory Records! ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

New work from legendary Polish prog group SBB – working here with added orchestrations, at a level that really helps bring back their music with a heck of a lot of force! SBB always had a wonderfully complex quality to their sound – different than some of their Western European ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
One of the most important Italian rock albums of the late 60s – even though it's a set that was virtually lost at the time! In some way, the set's a bit like the first album by The Velvet Underground – in that it was presented by an underground artist, Mario Schifano – and ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Limited edition of 500 – on heavyweight transparent purple vinyl!)
A really amazing record – even more incredible than you might guess from the cover and title! The whole thing's definitely a "party" in sound – as the record takes lots of familiar instrumentation and mixes it with odd sound effects and weird production tricks – ... (Rock, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
The debut album from Colin Scott – a hell of a singer/songwriter who should have been huge – and a talent who was taken from us all too soon! Colin's got a really special sound here – one that has deep American roots, but which is crafted with help from a huge amount of key ... read moreCD
A great setting for the voice of Jack Scott – not nearly as rockabilly as some of his other material, but still pretty great overall! The tunes are all Hank Williams numbers, as you'd guess – and include "Cold Cold Heart", "Half As Much", "My Heart Would ... (Folk/Country, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Gold label stereo pressing with deep groove, including Top Rank inner sleeve! Sticker on label.)
A really surprising set from Scritti Politti – still as catchy as back in the 80s, but also tuned to a new generation too – with surprising hip hop and soul crossover work from Mos Def and Meshell Ndegeocello! Given the soulful sound of the group back at the start, and the surprisingly ... read moreCD
An 80s classic from Scritti Politti – a group who'd worked their way up from the postpunk underground to the top of the charts, yet still managed to keep some of their leftist politics intact! The album's filled with catchy little numbers, but they also belie a deeper sensibility that folks ... read moreCD
The young sons of Earl Scruggs, off on their own – but at a time when they were also making big waves as part of the Earl Scruggs Revue! Earl joins on a few tracks – and Tracy Nelson provides backing vocals. (Folk/Country, Rock)LP, Vinyl record album
(Cover has some surface wear, a light stain on the back, and an index sticker.)

(Green label pressing in a textured cover, with aging and light wear.)
An amazing little record that seems completely unto itself – born in that incredible early 70s moment when the UK was overflowing with elements of prog, psych, and hard rock – but served up here by a group who seem to take their own path right from the start! The instrumentation is ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A stunningly massive album – the debut of this obscure UK group, who are a combo that shift effortlessly between late psych and early prog, with perhaps a bit of hard rock thrown in for good measure! If the tunes were longer, they might be too self-indulgent – but instead, the group ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A Brazilian rock classic! The band had a very sophisticated sound that mixes nice vocal production with spare arrangements supported by guitar, piano, and bass.

A fantastic record from The Seeds, and one that definitely earns its title – as it points the way towards a psychedelic future that would have made the group giants on the international scene, had they continued in this direction! The sound is very different than the garage punk of their ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A groundbreaking debut from The Seeds – one of those albums that seemed to come out of nowhere back in the 60s, then went onto have an undeniable influence on music for decades to come! The music is gritty and garagey right from the start – but also has a sinister focus that really ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(50th Anniversary Edition mono pressing with bonus LP!)
The Seeds are caught in a web of sound on the cover – and the same thing will happen to the listener, too – as the power of this groundbreaking classic reaches out and grabs you right away!

A really pivotal album for the young Bob Seger – still very much in the Detroit territory of his early years, but already learning how to focus all his inspirations in a really great way! If you know the very young Bob, you'll know that he began as a soul-inspired rocker – but here, ... read moreCD
Heavy psych from Detroit, in the years before Bob Seger became a "lighters in the air" peddler of redneck theme songs. Cut from the same cloth as the early Mitch Ryder, Amboy Dukes and Grand Funk that were the hallmark of the Motor City rock sound of the day, most of the tracks on this ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(70s yellow label pressing. Cover has light wear.)
The Sex Pistols only gave the world one full album before breaking up – the monumental God Save The Queen, a set that testifies to the raw energy that made it seem inevitable that their light would burn so brightly, it would soon burn out!

Creepy, strange and oddly beautiful late 60s eccentricity from Mort Shuman – a song writer and pivotal behind-the-scenes cat who's been credited for translating the Jacques Brel stuff that Scott Walker sung, as well as for bringing Brel to Broadway! This album is a very trippy kind of coldly ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

A really cool lost group on late 60s ABC – a bit psych, with maybe a slight UK influence – able to turn out some nicely varied, but nicely focused songs throughout this debut set! The record's one of those great lost sides from the time – a group who've clearly got chops and ... read moreCD
The incredible second album from Silver Apples – even more mad, more trippy, and more space rock than the first! The tunes are all awash in fuzziness – mad guitars, distorted vocals, and rough electronics coming into play with a bit of banjo and some stark, stiff percussion that makes ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A rare bit of garage psych from the Milwaukee scene of the early 90s – originally a cassette-only release by this indie group who featured Dan Mullen on guitar – a player you might know from his better-known work a few years before in Plasticland! The sound here is maybe a bit tighter ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Limited to 150 hand numbered copies – comes with a great 8 page booklet on the band and Milwaukee scene at the time!)
Pretty weird stuff from Shel Silverstein – best known for "A Boy Named Sue" and his trippy songs for kids, but working here in kind of a stoned-out, post-beatnik folksy mode. The songs all have Shel's wild wit and biting humor – and although many just feature Shel on vocals ... (Vocalists, Rock)read moreCD

Maybe the grooviest collection of work we've ever seen from the lovely Nancy Sinatra – a set that features some of her hits, but also includes a lot more material that's much more obscure – and which shows that Nancy was a hell of a song stylist, far from the charts!

An overlooked roots rock nugget from the early 70s – and a record that should be known well enough for its work from singer Judy Roderick – an artist who'd already spent plenty of time in the folk underground of the 60s! Yet the sound here isn't folk at all – much heavier, as if ... read moreCD
