Blue Note, 1969/1970. (reissue)
A fantastic set of tracks that was recorded at the cusp of the 70s, but which wasn't (for some strange reason) released until many years later! Donald Byrd's playing here with two different larger groups, and the music is a perfect bridge between his spacey late 60s attempts to mimic Miles Davis, ... LP, Vinyl record album
Impulse/Elemental (UK), 1969. Gatefold (reissue)
A wonderful reunion of Pharoah Sanders and vocalist Leon Thomas – and a set that captures a lot of the same energy as the pair's previous record – Karma! Thomas' vocals are in wonderful form for the set – stretching out soulfully on the extended classic "Hum-Allah-Hum-Allah-H ... LP, Vinyl record album
Blue Thumb/Big Pink (South Korea), 1972.
One of the greatest solo albums ever issued by Latin jazz trumpeter Luis Gasca – a set that really expands on his debut for Atlantic Records, and which brings in a whole host of early 70s west coast Latin influences! The style here is very laidback and open – a bit like some of the ... CD
Record Kicks, 2024.
Seun Kuti maybe sounds more majestic here than ever – ready to rise not just to the legacy his father Fela left behind, but maybe into an even larger world of global soul as well – with a groove here that doesn't abandon his Afro Funk roots, but definitely augments that sound with all ... CD
Verve, Late 1960s. (reissue)
One of the most unusual albums in the career of trumpet legend Chet Baker – done at a time when he was definitely going through some changes in his life, which also led to some changes in his music too! This set's not unlike a similar date that Stan Getz did for Verve around the same time ... LP, Vinyl record album
Brunswick/Real Gone, 1959. (reissue)
One of the greatest records of the monster novelty generation – a set that's really a cut above some of its contemporaries, and which is awash with original tunes and some mighty nice production touches! Some of the strengths here come from a young Rod McKuen, who's the "Dor" ... LP, Vinyl record album
Numero, 1960s/1970s. 2LP Gatefold
A mighty nice Halloween collection – and one with a slightly different twist! The Numero Group have done a great job of taking on classic compilation series over the years – serving up their own versions of Ultimate Breaks & Beats, East LA soul collections, and other modes – ... LP, Vinyl record album
Cherry Red (UK), 1982.
An incredible early solo project from the young Tracey Thorn – a set recorded right before she joined up with Ben Watt to form Everything But The Girl – but delivered in a leaner, much more personal style overall! There's almost a bossa nova inspiration to the record – although ... CD

Tomorrow's People

Open Soul
Stage Productions/P-Vine (Japan), Mid 1970s. (reissue)
A really legendary group from the underground 70s scene in Chicago – one who've got all the chops and capabilities of the bigger groups of the time, but who never fully got their due – maybe in part because of the racy image on the album's cover! The group are a sharp funky ensemble ... LP, Vinyl record album
Soul Jazz (UK), Mid 1980s. 2LP Gatefold
Mighty nice work from a time when computers and aliens took over soul music – the glory days of the Linndrum beats and vocoder vocals – a special time in the 80s when the underground got really electrified, and helped build a bridge between street funk, hip hop, and the coming world of ... LP, Vinyl record album

Piero Umiliani

Guerra E Distruzione
Liuto/Holy Basil (Italy), Early 1970s. 2LP Gatefold (reissue)
A really cool set from sound library genius Piero Umiliani – one that's definitely got the war and destruction promised in the title, but which also has some surprisingly groovy touches too! The vibe here is like some late 60s action film – with tense moments, darker passages, and some ... LP, Vinyl record album
Fremeaux & Associates (France), Late 1950s/Early 1960s. 3CD
The great Sacha Distel is maybe best known for his good looks and vocal performances on the French scene of the 60s and 70s – but at the start of his career, he was also a hell of a jazz guitarist – trained by the mighty Henri Salvador, and a wizard on the strings who had a legacy of ... CD

Michigan Avenue

Michigan Avenue
Duet/P-Vine (Japan), 1983.
A rare groove gem from the Chicago scene at the start of the 80s – a record that shows that the city's soul scene was still going strong at the time, even though the bigger labels had given up the ghost! Michigan Avenue have this great way of taking older harmony modes and refitting them for ... CD
Grapefruit (UK), 1969. 2CDs
Fantastic work from one of the great never-rans of late 60s rock music – a trio from St Louis, but one who were scooped up by EMI and given fantastic studio treatment at Abbey Road studios in London – then never saw their full length album issued at the time! That lack of big ... CD

Resolution 88

Vortex
Synthethesia (UK), 2024.
Resolution 88 doing what they do best – serving up a great batch of spacey keyboard lines – played on Fender Rhodes, Clavinet, Arp, and a range of other keys too – all backed with slinky lines from a Fender jazz bass, and tight drums and percussion too! The group start in Herbie ... CD

Anna Butterss

Mighty Vertebrate
International Anthem, 2024.
Really fantastic work from bassist Anna Butterss, and a set that's maybe more live and less assembled than her previous effort – with key contributions from some really great musicians who make the whole thing sound like a mighty strong group effort on most tracks! Butterrss handles electric ... CD
Legacy, 1970. 3CD
A fantastic look at the final months of creativity in the too-short life of Jimi Hendrix – 39 tracks recorded at his legendary Electric Lady studios – 38 of which are issued here for the first time! The lineup is that fresh take on his trio – Billy Cox on bass and Mitch Mitchell ... CD
Tico/Craft, 1974. Gatefold (reissue)
Very soulful work from singer Ismael Rivera – working here with some sharp arrangements by Javier Vazquez, in a groove that's totally great! As with other Vaya sessions of the time, there's a strong undercurrent of tradition in the rhythms – a return to Latin roots at the height of the ... LP, Vinyl record album

Liquid Liquid

Bell Head/Optimo (rmx)
DFA, Early 1980s.
One of the most legendary tracks ever from Liquid Liquid – a percussion-heavy jam that has them right in the same territory of ESG at the time – romping in these brilliant rhythms that never let up – all with moody, echoey production that has a very post-punk vibe! The vocals are ... 12-inch, Vinyl record

Thee Sacred Souls

Got A Story To Tell
Daptone, 2024.
A sweet second album from this excellent group – one of a few key acts in the funk underground who are moving things strongly into the sweet soul spectrum – echoing the kind of kicked-back mellow work that made the New Jersey and Philly scenes so great back in the day, with a vibe that ... CD
