A&M, 1983. Very Good+ ... $2.99
A pivotal album for Jeffrey Osborne – and a record that showed the world that he could stand proudly on his own away from his old group LTD!

Epic, 1969. New Copy (reissue)... $14.99
A classic album of bluesy funk – one that features the guitar of Johnny Otis' young son Shuggie, in a slightly tighter setting than he'd been getting on some of Johnny's own LPs!

MGM, 1972. Very Good+ ... $24.99
Some of the warmest Memphis soul ever recorded – a really classic set from The Ovations, done in a style that's really unique!

Matsuli (UK), 1976. New Copy (reissue)... $22.99
A seminal album from one of the hippest groups going on the South African scene of the 70s – a combo who mixed equal parts electric jazz and R&B, in a mode that's strongly inspired by American groups of the time!

Parliament —
Osmium (with bonus tracks) ... CD Invictus/Ultra Vybe (Japan), 1970. New Copy ... $13.99
An insane bit of fuzzed-out funk!

The record ... read more CD
Casablanca/Universal (Japan), 1980. Used Gatefold ... $44.99
Often overlooked, but a very tasty album of late grooves from Parliament – not as much of a major hit as their previous records, but maybe even better because of that!

Universal, 2006. Used ... $4.99
A strong effort from the mid 00s revitalized Prince – one that doesn't approach the greatness of the best material, but a graceful and consistent gem nonetheless!

Around The World In A Day ... LP Paisley Park, 1985. Very Good+ Gatefold ... $29.99
A mad bit of soul psychedelia from Prince – a record that sounds better and better over the years, and which stands out from most of his 80s work thanks to some really unique production and songwriting!

Paisley Park/Warner, 1986. Very Good (pic cover)... $7.99
Classic! Although folks had been saying for years that Prince was funky, "Kiss" was the first tune to really have him going to town on the instruments – in a way that we always expect from a true funk act, but not so much for the pop charts – reason alone to adore this one! ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record

Warner, 1984. Very Good ... $7.99
One of the most romping tunes ever recorded by Prince – the kind of cut that was an instant dancefloor stormer back in the day, and still sounds mighty groovy all these many years later! The song is featured here in it's very extended version – and is backed by the fantastic non-LP cut ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record
