Gary Numan —
Dance ... LP Atco, 1981. Near Mint- Gatefold ...
$16.99
A more human Gary Numan than on the heavier synth rock of his first album and the leaner robotic sound of his second – but very much recognizable as the genius behind earlier breakthroughs! There's some subtle nods to the electronic makeover of pop, soul and even jazz at the dawn of the 80s ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Includes the printed inner sleeve. Cover has light wear and some aging.)
Gary Numan's looking mighty noirish on the cover – and the record continues that fantastic run of dark-edged electro pop that made the man one of the most important song stylists of his generation! A few tracks here are maybe more tuneful than before – with some surprisingly bright ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Includes the printed inner sleeve. Cover has light wear.)
Icy cool electro rock from Gary Numan – which puts together a bunch of his greatest tracks! Gary had a mighty impressive run in the late 70s, well into the 80s and beyond – pairing an intense stage presence and his distinctive voice with some of the most unforgettable synth rock ... read moreCD

Comme Au Moulin ... LP Ici Bientot (France), 1985. New Copy (reissue)...
$26.9934.99
A really cool record from the French scene of the 80s – a set by a quintet, but one that feels much more like some of the more personal minimalist albums coming from Japan at the time! The instrumentation is quite varied – a mix of electric and acoustic elements that features vibes, ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Was there a more tragic figure in the 60s scene than Phil Ochs? Perhaps, but this is still a wonderful piece of his odd and sad career, a great portrait with his unrelenting political stance still in place, though not as raw as some of his other LPs. More arranged than any of his other LPs, but ... (Folk/Country, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A damn heavy record from Odin – a group here who work with some really impeccable instrumentation that means that they hardly need to bring any vocals into the mix at all! All of the elements here are familiar – keyboards, guitar, bass, and drums – but the way they come together ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Odin take on two tunes by Frank Zappa here – but the result is very different than most of Zappa's music, given that the group have a sound that's a bit more down to earth, and focused nicely on the interplay between the excellent organ lines on a Hammond 100, and the rest of the guitar, bass ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Off Broadway USA —
On ... LP Atlantic, 1979. Near Mint- ...
$6.99
A classic from this American group (named Off Broadway, but adding the USA because there was an overseas group with the same name) – a set that features their power pop classic "Stay In Time". LP, Vinyl record album
(Includes the printed inner sleeve. Cover has a cutout hole and some light ring and edge wear.)
A beautiful mix of Quebecois prog and fusion – performed here by the core group Offenbach, working with larger accompaniment from the Vic Vogel Big Band! The performance is a unique one, but also a summation of all the freewheeling ideas that were taking place in this overlooked scene – ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Limited 40th Anniversary issue on black vinyl, #435/500.)
Great work from Junko Ohashi – one of those Japanese singers who seem to have a very global appeal, even if you can't understand the lyrics! Ohashi's got an expressive style that reaches back into older modes of vocalization in Japanese pop, but delivers the lyrics with this cool, focused ...

Tea For Tears ... LP Universal (Japan), 1981. New Copy (reissue)...
$49.9954.99
A really beautiful record from Junko Ohashi – a set recorded right in that very soulful moment of Japanese pop, with a strong influence from American fusion and R&B! Arrangements are by Mitsuo Hagita, and most of the lyrics are by Yoshiko Miura – and in many ways, the album feels ... (Japanese, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Pot Luck ... LP Family Productions, 1972. Very Good ...
$39.99
The only solo record by Memphis/Muscle Shoals session hero and songwriter Spooner Oldham! Spooner's organ and piano sessions and knack for soulful songwriting with partner Dan Penn will forever cement his legend in the southern soul AND rock canons, but he rarely sought a spotlight of his own. This ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

$22.9924.99
A huge amount of work from Omni – a cool Polish trio who work in some great 80s electronic mode – maybe a bit warmer than material from the cold wave underground of the time, but also not really a pop group either – as the group is mostly instrumental throughout! There's an ... read moreCD
Maybe one of the first truly tuneful moments from Yoko Ono – working here with backing from the Elephants Memory group – on a double-length set that shows a really great range from the singer! Yoko's vocals are fragile and sometimes a bit strained in the traditionally structured song ... read moreCD
(Out of print Ryko pressing in green tinted case.)
A great album by Yoko Ono, recorded during her most creatively fertile period – following the Approximately Infinite Universe mode of straight up, often catchy and melodic tunefulness in the arrangements – but with a more melancholy and often angrily feminist lyrical approach! The ... read moreCD
The only album ever issued by this German band from the early 70s – one who clearly draw a lot of inspiration from American blues, but also spin things out with a longform vibe that really opens the door to the prog years to come! The guitars are nice and sharp, and much more complicated at ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Always-heady work from Orgone – a funk band, but one who work with all the sorts of trippy influences you might guess from the image on the cover! There's a great sense of production here – lots of echo, fuzz, and other effects – which make the familiar instrumentation come ... (Deep Funk, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A tripped-out batch of tracks from Brazil! These guys mix together a bit of funk, a bit of psych, and touches of Jorge Ben-like soul – into a blend that's really groovy all the way through, and which will be sure to please any fan of the Samba Soul groove! Jorge Ben's influence is all over ... (Brazil, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
The second set of madness from the legendary Os Mutantes – and like the first, an album done in close collaboration with arranger/producer Rogerio Duprat, whose talents add a new level of genius to the record!

A landmark album from late 60s Brazil!

(Brazilian pressing. Booklet has a couple of small stains, nothing major, tray card has a distribution sticker and a small cutout hole.)
Exactly the kind of record that makes Italian 70s prog so great – a set that can stand equally strongly with the best British work of the period, but which also unabashedly has its own sound too! Osanna clearly have some jazz influence in their roots, but also work with a much more focused, ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Heavily percussive jamming from the Italian scene of the early 70s – an album done in collaboration with Italian soundtrack composer Luis Bacalov – who handled all the arrangements and orchestrations for the record!

(Original pressing, including the printed inner sleeve. Cover has an unglued seam with a light bend and some corner bumps, small name sticker on the back.)
Hot on the heels of his big hits – adding in perhaps a bit stronger of a rock vibe, picking up the beat on a few tunes, but never losing his subtle brilliance, and the wit that makes him the popular music link to a long historical line of Irish poets.

Insane grooves from arranger Mustafa Ozkent – an artist who was to Turkey what Lalo Schifrin was to the US in the 70s!

A great little group from early 70s Chile – a scene we know very little about, but which we're ready to dig a lot more, given the strength of this set!

A pastoral name, but a really hard-hitting band – a power rock trio who come on with a sound that's incredibly full for such a small group! Most numbers here have some really heady bass work – rumbling at the bottom and giving a fuzzier, nastier edge to some of the tunes – and ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Graham Parker's left The Rumour behind for this early 80s set – but it's clear that he's also still every bit the strong songwriter as he was in his days with that group! The album's a post-punk singer/songwriter set that's very much in the best tone of the era – some of the bite of ... read moreCD

Van Dyke Parks is at his finest here – painting a unique picture of early 70s America that's touched with the same mad vision as his classic Song Cycle album!
