Boardwalk, 1981. Sealed ... $14.99
Great post-Curtom work from Curtis Mayfield – a set recorded in LA, not Chicago – with the mighty Gene Page at the helm!

There's No Place Like America Today ... LP Curtom, 1975. Near Mint- ... $19.99
A great album by Curtis Mayfield – filled with some excellent lesser-known gems!

Percy Mayfield —
My Jug & I (180 gram pressing) ... LP Tangerine/4 Men With Beards, Early 60s. New Copy (reissue)... $13.99 21.98
A lost gem on Ray Charles' Tangerine label – a session of R&B tracks from 50s legend Percy Mayfield, updated nicely for the 60s! The approach is similar to that used in some of Ray's work of the time – bigger backings with some nice jazzy touches – but the vocals are rootsier ... (Blues, Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Brunswick/Demon (UK), Late 60s. New Copy (reissue)... $26.99 29.99
Great work from R&B legend Percy Mayfield – one of the singer's most obscure sessions, and really more of a soul record overall!

Atlantic, 1972. Very Good+ ... $19.99
One of the best of Les McCann's 70s Atlantic recordings, and one that captures him with a lot of fire and funkiness – and none of the looser modes of other recordings from the time! Les sings on about half the cuts – but the focus is still quite strongly on his funky jazz, which makes ... (Jazz, Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

A clear follow-up to "The Hustle" (not on this album), with a number of tracks that come close to the genius of that track, but never quite manage it altogether.

Amazing rare soul from Gwen McCrae – little-known material recorded for Columbia records in the years before her later 70s fame at TK! The style here is nice and rootsy – very southern soul in its approach, even more so than Gwen's earliest work at TK – thanks, perhaps, to less ... read more CD
Liberty, 1962. Near Mint- ... $4.99
A well-titled album, as it features some of Gene's big early hits, mixed along with lesser-known gems – all done in that proud, loud style he used before becoming the Headless Hero!

Atlantic, 1967. Near Mint- ... $24.99
Tight funky instrumentals from Brother Jack McDuff – an Atlantic groover that's probably closer to his late 60s gems for Cadet Records than it is his earlier work for Prestige!

Champion, 1978. Near Mint- ... $19.99
Jimmy McKee was a pretty decent organ player who got his start in the Detroit scene of the 70s, and who cut this one album for the tiny Champion label in 1978.

Athens Of The North (UK), Late 70s. Sealed ... $4.99
James McKenzie looks a bit down to earth on the cover, but he sounds a lot more high-end on record – a budding blue-eyed soul singer, with a strong penchant for AOR production – but always served up in a homegrown style that's nice and lean!

Mel Torme gives Barbara McNair some mighty big props in the notes to this one – and hearing the set, we certainly have to agree!

Sweet soul from Carmen McRae – a great 70s album for Blue Note, and one that has the classic singer moving into some very groovy material!
