A beautiful bit of soft rock from 70s Japan – served up by a group with two guys and two gals, who trade placement in the lead vocals, and deliver plenty of warm harmonies too! There's a vibe here that's in the best sort of Carpenters mode – well-produced, but very down to earth and ... (Japanese, Rock)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A tremendous discovery in soul music – previously unreleased demos from the legendary Dan Penn – one of the key songwriters in the Fame Studios/Muscle Shoals scene of the 60s!

A really obscure little set from a group who recorded in Erie, PA at the end of the 70s – but who never issued this music at the time!

A well-done collection of work from one of the real giants of the early days of Sun Records – and we mean that in more ways than one, as Carl Perkins was a towering figure of a man!

Beautifully groovy work from mid 60s France – all by a singer who's every bit as great as France Gall, Francoise Hardy, or other French greats of the time – but not nearly as well known!

The Photos look plenty new wave on the cover, and they sound plenty new wave within – maybe a bit of a UK nod to the sound of Blondie in the late 70s, but with some punkier elements of their own as well!

A record with "disco" on the cover, but a set that's much more new wave overall – a very cool combination of UK 80s dance music and Southeast Asian roots!

Rare late 60s psychedelia from blue collar Rockford, Il – a totally great lost album of pop psych tunefulness from Pisces – who had an incredible knack for experimental sounds that weave in and out of the hallucinatory pop structure!

There's a nicely cinematic image on the cover of this second album from Portishead – and the sound is very cinematic too – a real genre-setting standard for the kinds of new territory the group and some of their key contemporaries began to explore in the 90s!
