Motown/Real Gone, Late 60s/Early 70s. 2CD
CD...$29.99
31.99
A fantastic collection of work from Sondra "Blinky" Williams – a hell of a soul singer who recorded a fair bit for Motown Records at the end of the 60s and start of the 70s – but an artist whose music ended up mostly spending the next few decades in the label's vaults! Yet ... CD
Gideon Nxumalo
Jazz FantasiaRenown/Mad About Records (Portugal), 1962. (reissue)
An insanely wonderful bit of jazz from the South American scene – an early 60s record that stands as one of the first to really express the kind of special sound and promise that would emerge from that nation in years to come! Part of that jazz legacy was an expatriate one – as some ... LP, Vinyl record album
Rudy Ray Moore
Step It Up & Go (10 inch LP)Crashing The Party, Late 50s/Early 60s.
Think Rudy Ray Moore was only the king of 70s raunch? Think again – as Rudy has a heck of a long career, one that stretches back to the R&B years of the 50s! This set does a great job of looking back at that under-documented period of Rudy's career – and features a wonderful batch ... LP, Vinyl record album
Analog Africa (Germany), 1970s/1980s/Early 90s.
A mountain of music from the scene in Somalia during the 70s and 80s – all of it pulled from the vast archives of Radio Mogadishu, and showing a wonderful range of expression at the time! The music here is all pretty darn funky and soulful – as you'd expect from a collection on Analog ... CD
Jazzman (UK), Late 50s/Early 60s.
A really loving look at a sometimes-forgotten side of the Prestige Records label – a company that's famous for giving the world plenty of hardbop and soul jazz in the 50s and 60s, but which also helped lay the groundwork for American spiritual jazz to come! Long before Impulse, Strata East, ... CD
Now Again, 1970.
A fantastic slice of lost work from the legendary JBs – including the track that first got Bootsy Collins and company the job as James Brown's backing band! The set leads off with that gem of a groove – the fast funky "More Mess On My Thing" – a tune that's got the sort ... CD
Teruo Nakamura
UnicornThree Blind Mice/Craftman (Japan), 1973.
A landmark album from the Japanese fusion scene of the 70s – a killer set of tracks recorded by bassist Teruo Nakamura, with help from a host of American soul jazz luminaries! The album's easily one of Nakamura's most sought-after sets – and for good reason too, as the cuts are long ... CD

A fantastic overview of the legendary Rampart Records – one of the strongest soul labels on the LA scene of the 60s, and a company that did some surprisingly compelling work in the 70s too! Rampart's biggest-ever act was Cannibal & The Headhunters – and the set is titled after ... CD
Mike Selesia
FlavorMad About Records (Portugal), 1976.
Plenty of flavor here – a really well-crafted brew that's heavy with searing saxophone from Mike Selesia – mixed with other rootsy instrumentation in a very groovy way! Mike plays soprano, tenor sax, and flute on the set – clearly inspired by the John Coltrane generation, yet ... LP, Vinyl record album
Piotr Figiel
Piotr (with bonus tracks)Pronit/GAD (Poland), 1971.
Killer Hammond from Polish player Piotr Figiel – a player with a really wonderful sort of groove! The album's got a vibe that's halfway between the Hammond antics of Alan Hawkshaw and the freer lines of American jazzmen like Jimmy Smith or Charles Earland – augmented by other cool ... CD
Masayuki Takayanagi & New Direction For The Arts
Free Form SuiteThree Blind Mice/Craftman (Japan), 1972.
A really compelling set from this important Japanese group of the 70s – a quartet headed up by guitarist Masayuki Takayanagi – but which features a very complex balance of work from all the individual members! The set initially begins with a traditional vibe, but then seems to step out ... CD
Bruno Nicolai & Nino Oliviero

Really groovy sounds from two great Italian film composers of the 60s – Bruno Nicolai and Nino Olivero – both working here to create a wide assortment of different instrumental modes! The film follows in the "Mondo" style of the period – kind of a fake documentary, with ... CD
Col Nolan Soul Syndicate
Whatever It's WorthCBS/Pacific Theatre Encore (Australia), 1968.
A fantastic funky set from the Sydney scene of the 60s – one of the coolest, cookingest combos to ever record in Australia at the time – and a group with a mix of mod and soul elements that reminds us of the best organ jazz recorded in London too! The group's led by the mighty Col ... CD
Nico Fidenco
Blue JeansDigitmovies (Italy), 1975.
A sexy little soundtrack from Nico Fidenco – penned for this mid 70s film about a teenage prostitute who works under the nickname "Blue Jeans"! The music's got a wonderfully whimsical feel – not as electric or Euro-erotic as you might expect from the cover, and often put ... CD
Isao Suzuki
Ako's DreamThree Blind Mice/Craftman (Japan), 1976.
One of the wonderfully creative 70s sets from Japanese stringman Isao Suzuki – an artist who also plays bass, but who works here on jazz cello – for a very unusual approach! The set has Suzuki's work on the light strings matched in a combo with lead guitar from Kazumi Watanabe – ... CD
Misha Panfilov
Heli MaagiaEEE ZEE, 2019.
We've heard some funky sounds from Misha Panfilov in the past, but this record is something else entirely – more like a groovy set of sound library electronics from the 70s – the tuneful sort, not the noisy kind – served up in ways that are wonderfully tuneful and extremely ... LP, Vinyl record album
Soul Jazz (UK), Late 70s/Early 80s.
Sun Ra was one of the first 20th Century artists to soar off in space, and George Clinton followed his lead with the Mothership in the 70s – and after that time, there was a surprisingly huge legacy of funk and soul artists who also headed for the cosmos – as you'll discover in this ... CD
