Alston, 1976. Very Good+ ... $19.99
Betty Wright explodes with soul on this sweet 70s classic – really stretching out past the simpler grooves of her roots, and showing the world she's got more than enough talent to be one of the standout soul divas of her generation! The record's also a great illustration of the way that ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Cover has light wear.)
Alston/Ultra Vybe (Japan), 1973. New Copy ... $13.99
A deep soul classic from Betty Wright – one of her earliest albums of the 70s, and a Miami soul landmark that was one of the greatest female southern soul records of the time! Although Betty was well known for her earlier hit "Clean Up Woman", she didn't give into that fame – ... read more CD
ABC, 1973. Near Mint- 2LP Gatefold ... $29.99
A double album recorded for ABC after Charles left Warner Brothers and the 103rd Street Rhythm Band behind – but still very much an extension of that group's later stretched-out funky records! Nice long cuts with grooves that are a little bit more jazzy than his earlier 60's stuff. Tracks ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(With ABC/Dunhill inner sleeves and the folded insert. Cover has a small cutout hole, some wear and aging around the edges, mostly split top seams, and small splits in the bottom seams.)
Alston/P-Vine (Japan), 1977. New Copy ... $20.99
One of the most unique soul records you'll ever own – a tremendous little set from the mighty Milton Wright! Milton's probably best known for his first album, Friends & Buddies, but this set is arguably even greater – an even more personal, unusual session that blends wonderfully ... read more CD
Hi Records/Fat Possum, 1978. New Copy ... $8.99 14.99
Great work from OV Wright – one of the few singers who was still strongly carrying the Hi Records torch at the end of the 70s! Although Wright had sometimes been bluesier in the past, his late 70s Hi sides have a much mellower, mature sort of feel – a ripening of the seeds in his ... read more CD
MCA/Monkey Dog (Germany), Mid 60s. New Copy ... $8.99 16.99
A strange reworked version of OV Wright's famous 8 Men album – presented here with slightly different tracks! An early high point in the career of OV Wright – the kind of "cut above" work that really got him noticed right away – a subtle blend of soul, blues, and more ... read more CD
Hi Records/Fat Possum, 1979. New Copy ... $8.99 15.99
OV Wright's getting a bit smooth, but still sounding great – working here with really full backings from Willie Mitchell, at a level that's a bit more upbeat than his previous album at Hi Records! There's a bit more of a groove on these tunes, but most are still miles from the dancefloor ... read more CD
Raenii/P-Vine (Japan), 1980. New Copy (reissue)... $36.99
A wonderful bit of lost spiritual soul jazz from Chicago – recorded in the early 80s, but with a progressive and righteous feel that's very much in the 70s Strata East vein! The group's led by Billy Mahdi on tenor, soprano, and flute – and features Corky McClerkin on piano, Eldee Young ... (Jazz, Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Great Japanese pressing – with obi!)
Soul Brother (UK), 1974. New Copy ... $19.99
A lost southern soul album from the 70s – recorded down at Muscle Shoals by singer Sandra Wright, and originally intended for release on Stax Records – but never issued at the time! Sandra's a great singer – deep soul, but with a touch of class, too – and the approach here ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Numero, 1977. New Copy ... $11.99 16.98
Incredibly beautiful work from Willie Wright – an album of folksy soul with a slight island spirit – one that nicely nestles Willie's music in a space somewhere between the best 70s work of Terry Callier and Jon Lucien! The sound is wonderful – lean, stripped-down, and ... read more CD
Prelude, 1983. Near Mint- ... $19.99
Produced, written, and arranged by James Mason – and one of a few singles that he cut under the group Wuf Ticket, after recording some sublime jazz funk material on his own. This one's got an early 80s electro feel – with lots of keyboards and linn drum riffing. 12-inch, Vinyl record
(In a Prelude sleeve.)

Vanguard/Ace (UK), 1975. New Copy ... $8.99 14.98
One of THE spoken word classics of the 70s funk years – an amazing album based around the poetry of Camille Yarbrough – set to some amazing funky backings! The sound here is incredibly righteous – almost a more sophisticated version of Betty Davis – done with a stark, spare ... read more CD
Mercury, 1983. Very Good+ ... $16.99
The first rumblings of the pop genius in Yello's music – a record that still has all the best quirky electronics of their first two sets, but which also focuses that energy into a sound that's often more direct and oddly hook-oriented on the best numbers! There's a really percussive vibe ... (Rock, Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Late 70s. Very Good ... $2.99
A strange one from Karen Young – an acetate that has a lush version of "God Bless America" on the main side, but with a groover on the flip that's a lot more like her clubby material! 12-inch, Vinyl record
Karen Young —
Hot Shot (voc, inst) ... 12-inch West End, 1978. Very Good+ ... $9.99
Karen's big cut, the only one we'll remember her for, and a big campy track in its day. Served up here on an original West End single, with vocal and instrumental versions both stretching past the 8 minute mark. 12-inch, Vinyl record
(In a West End sleeve.)
Atlantic, 1967. Very Good ... $9.99
Possibly the biggest album ever by The Rascals – a wonderfully tight batch of tunes that has the group hitting perfectly on all their best fronts!

Brunswick/Demon (UK), Late 60s. New Copy (reissue)... $29.99
The beat goes on, and just keeps getting better and better too – thanks to the growing sophistication of the Young/Holt duo, once they broke away from Ramsey Lewis! The bass and drums share equal space in the spotlight – and the production has the former really up high in the mix, ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
20th Century, 1974. Very Good+ ... $14.99
Standout work from The Younghearts – one of the best harmony soul groups of the 70s to record away from the east coast. The group's vocals are the strongest thing about the record – but they get a great extra push from Vernon Bullock, who produced and conducted the record with a nice ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Mercury, Early 60s. Very Good+ ... $11.99
Amazing is right! Timi's one of the great under-rated Uptown Soul talents of the 60s, and this is one of her best records.

A stone classic from Zhane – a duo who maybe never had the longest life in soul music, but who made a massive impact with this gem from the 90s!

A killer tribute to the 60s songcraft of Tommy Boyce and Bobby Hart – who are probably best-known as the songwriters behind many songs by The Monkees – but they're terrific performers in their own right, on top of penning tunes for the creme of the 60s crop!
