Big Tree, 1977. Very Good+ ... $5.99
A wild mix of 70s soul and disco from Belle Epoque – going against the grain in the mainstream disco vibe with some gritty, raspy female vocals – plus uptempo grooves that have fair bit of Euro-disco keyboard work, and some farther reaching elements, too.

Heavier Than Yesterday ... LP AVI, Late 70s. Near Mint- ... $24.99
Heavier than yesterday – and than most of Benoit's other albums!

Give Me The Night ... LP Qwest/Warner, 1980. Very Good+ ... Just Sold Out!
George has come a long way from his roots with Jack McDuff here – but in a way that kind of has us impressed, as he's grooving away slickly on guitar, laying down some smooth vocals that we never would have imagined from his mid 60s recordings.

Big Maybelle's got a new bag – and we like it!
