Blood Brothers ... LP 
Afrodisia (Nigeria), 1973. Near Mint- ... $24.99
Beautiful grooves from the Nigerian scene of the 70s – a set of really unique grooves, and the only-ever album from the enigmatic Mebusas! There's kind of a tripped-out feel to some of these tracks – Afro Funk, but taken left of center from the style of Fela – thanks to some ... (Global Grooves, Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Open Our Eyes ... LP Columbia, 1974. Near Mint- ... $36.99
Spiritual, soulful, and oh, so beautiful!

You're So Beautiful ... LP Warner, 1971. Near Mint- ... $34.99
The last album recorded by Charles Wright with the Watts 103rd Street Rhythm Band – and a set that's even more stretched out and trippy than their other albums!

Segments Of Time ... LP Sussex, 1972. Near Mint- ... $29.99
The only album we've ever seen from this hip Detroit group of the 70s – a harmony soul act who mix sweet vocal styles with a more badass approach – very much at the level of the best Philly or New Jersey acts of the time!

At Last (Original Chess Masters) ... LP Chess/MCA, 1960. Near Mint- ... $39.99
An amazing step forward for the young Etta James – a singer who was delivering a raw, shouting form of R&B just a few years before – but who here ascends into soul music heaven with her famous work on the album!

Harvest For The World (with bonus track) ... CD T Neck/Epic, 1976. Used ... $5.99
Fantastic Isleys from the mid 70s!

Nina Simone —
Fodder On My Wings ... CD Carrere/Verve, 1982. Used ... $5.99
An overlooked album from the legendary Nina Simone – recorded in Paris in the early 80s, and not circulated as much as some of her records from the 60s and 70s – but every bit as compelling in its own sort of way!

A great second album from The Foundations – one that's got the group working with a really strong batch of unusual material, and sounding every bit as great as before with their new lead singer Colin Young!

Although Roy Brown had a slightly softer edge than some of his R&B contemporaries – he could definitely rock and wail when he wanted to, as you'll hear on this set!

Lisa Stansfield —
All Around The World (long, American club)/Arista, 1989. Near Mint- (pic cover)... $11.99
A fantastic track – grooving along at a rich soulful midtempo pace that owes a heck of a lot to Soul II Soul, but which also is the perfect showcase for Lisa's wonderfully soulful vocals. And sure, it got played to death when it came out – but that's what makes it a classic, and just ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record

Heaven 17 —
How Men Are ... LP Arista/Virgin, 1984. Very Good+ ... $5.99
The last moment of greatness from Heaven 17 – and a set that continues the trend towards more soulful expression the group began with their previous record!

Love Byrd ... LP Elektra, 1981. Very Good+ ... $19.99
A sweet funky 80s set from trumpeter Donald Byrd – a record done after his 70s run at Blue Note with producer Larry Mizell, but in a groove that's equally great in its own sort of way!

A much earlier set of tracks than the first volume of Real Folk Blues from Howlin Wolf – mostly material recorded in the mid 50s, both in Chicago and Memphis – all with a really nitty gritty sort of feel!

Fantastic Voyage ... LP Solar, 1980. Very Good+ Gatefold ... $19.99

Black & Blue ... LP Capitol, 1962. Very Good ... $6.99

Is It Still Good To Ya ... LP Warner, 1978. Near Mint- ... Just Sold Out!
Ashford & Simpson don't need to ask at this point – their in full 70s soul stride here, and it's not good, it's great!

Great Roy Milton – Roots Of Rock Vol 1 ... LP Kent, Late 60s. Very Good+ ... $3.99
An obscure late 60s session that has R&B genius Roy Milton fronting a small group led by Johnny Otis, and featuring a young Shuggie Otis on guitar! The set's packaged in a "roots of rock" sleeve to cash in on the kids, but it's a pretty nice little set with a stoner R&B sound. ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
