Cream City ... LP 
Arista, 1977. Very Good ... $7.99
Sweet modern soul with a sound that would get picked up on years later by the LA G-Funk scene.

Some tracks are a bit too ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Best Of Angela Bofill ... LP Arista, 1986. Very Good+ ... Out Of Stock
One of the things we love best about Angela Bofill is how she exemplifies what was so great about late 70s commercial soul, where she and other singers like Phyllis Hyman and Patrice Rushen were infusing their music with a great jazz inflected sophistication, and just plain solid songwriting, ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Angela Bofill —
Teaser ... LP Arista, 1983. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
An album that further cements Angela Bofill's relationship with Narada Michael Walden – as Walden produced almost every track in the set, and does a fair bit of songwriting too! The style is electric 80s soul, with a fair bit of keyboards and beats in the mix – but as usual with Bofill ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Angela Bofill —
Too Tough ... LP Arista, 1983. Sealed ... Out Of Stock
An Arista winner from Angela Bofill – one that has her working strongly with Narada Michael Walden – who helps Bofill on production and songwriting for part of the album, and really helps bring a nicely solid feel to the set!

Brecker Brothers —
Brecker Brothers ... LP Arista, 1975. Very Good+ ... Out Of Stock

Heavy Metal Be Bop ... LP Arista, 1978. Very Good+ ... Out Of Stock
No heavy metal here – just tight and funky jamming from the mighty Brecker Brothers!

Tom Browne —
Love Approach ... LP GRP/Arista, 1980. Near Mint- Gatefold ... Out Of Stock

Arista/GRP, 1981. Near Mint- ... $9.99

Arista, 1983. Near Mint- ... $9.99
A classic killer from trumpeter Tom Browne – a smoking set that still has all the jazz funk touches of his earlier records, yet which also picks up a bit of an electro vibe as well!

Fiesta —
Fiesta ... LP Arista, 1978. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
One of the great lost funky soul records on Arista from the late 70's, and an album that hardly ever seems to come our way anymore.

Aretha Franklin —
Get It Right ... LP Arista, 1983. Near Mint- ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A real standout from Aretha Franklin's years on Arista – a set produced by Luther Vandross, with a soaring groove that really opens Aretha up nicely! Luther's more in the mode here of his 70s club productions than his 80s hits – that warm, midtempo vibe that's full of lush moments, but ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Aretha Franklin —
Jump To It ... LP Arista, 1982. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
Aretha's grooving sweetly on a record that's produced by Luther Vandross – and a damn strong one, too!

Aretha Franklin at the end of the 80s – capping off a big run of records for Arista with another successful collaboration with Narada Michael Walden!

Reflections ... LP Arista, 1981. Very Good+ ... Out Of Stock
A great little album that's often overshadowed by its hit – the 15 minute "B-Movie", which was sort of an overly-wrought protest piece about how the election of Ronald Reagan in 1980 was going to turn America into a bad b-movie.

Majesty Music ... LP Arista, 1976. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
One of the great ones from bassist Miroslav Vitous – a musician you might know from more atmospheric moments, but artist who could really be funky when he wanted! The album's got this righteous groove that really matches the energy of Miroslav's Magical Shepherd album from the same time ... (Jazz, Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Finder Of Lost Loves ... LP Arista, 1985. Very Good+ ... Out Of Stock
A surprisingly nice album from the later years of Dionne Warwick's career – a set recorded at a time when the lady may have been a bit of a parody of herself on screen, but could still sound great in the studio!
