Easin' It – Music From The Pen Of Frank Foster ... LP Roulette, Early 60s. Very Good ... $4.99

A landmark album from Joe Cocker – and a set that took blue-eyed soul in a whole new direction at the end of the 60s!

Carmen McRae —
In Person – San Francisco (aka Carmen McRae Live At Sugar Hill – San Francisco) ... LP Mainstream, 1962. Very Good ... $2.99
A wonderful set by Carmen McCrae – captured at San Francisco's Sugar Hill in 1962 – backed by a tight trio!

Mel Torme —
Songs Of New York ... LP Atlantic, Early 60s. Very Good ... $1.99
One of Mel's best non-Bethlehem albums, and a record that's as much a loving tribute to New York as any you'll ever buy! Kind of funny, too, because in Mel's California Suite, there's all this stuff about how lousy New York is – but by the time of this early 60s recording, Mel's clearly ...

Duke Jordan —
Les Liaisons Dangereuses ... LP Charlie Parker, 1962. Very Good ... $7.99

Eric Gale —
Forecast ... LP Kudu, 1973. Very Good+ ... Just Sold Out!

California Concert ... LP CTI, 1971. Very Good 2LP Gatefold ... $9.99
A killer concert all the way through – and a great showcase for the CTI sound!

David Bowie —
Young Americans ... LP RCA, 1975. Very Good ... $19.99
A brilliant soul album! That's right, we said SOUL album!

Sonny Stitt & Bennie Green —
My Main Man ... LP Argo, 1964. Very Good+ ... $6.99
A lost little cooker from Stitt and Green – recorded at a time when they were working together briefly, with backing by a Chicago organ trio that includes Bobby Buster on Hammond, Jo Diorio on guitar, and Dorel Anderson on drums.

Sonny Stitt —
Constellation (Cobblestone) ... LP Cobblestone, 1972. Very Good ... Just Sold Out!

Ray Charles —
Genius + Soul = Jazz ... LP Impulse, 1960. Very Good Gatefold ... $9.99
A wonderful chapter in the career of Ray Charles – and a key album in helping raise his respect level a notch or two in the early 60s! We might argue with the mathematics in the title – or at least joke that Ray was using equations as titles years before Anthony Braxton – but you ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Ronnie Foster —
Love Satellite ... LP Columbia, 1978. Very Good+ ... $9.99
Wicked late 70s work from Ronnie Foster – a rare Columbia outing that's arguably better than his earlier sides for Blue Note! There's more of a soul vibe than before in the music – but in a way that's really foregrounded, and without some of the back/forth wavering that Foster had in ...

Jimmy Smith —
Bucket ... LP Blue Note, 1963. Very Good ... $14.99
Jimmy Smith serves up a bucket of soul here – on an album that's one of his last for Blue Note, and still very much in the strong trio mode that launched his work for the label!

Stanley Turrentine —
Salt Song ... LP CTI, 1971. Very Good+ Gatefold ... Just Sold Out!
An amazing album from Stanley Turrentine – quite different than most of his other sessions for CTI, but in a really great way!

Buddy Miles —
Them Changes ... LP Mercury, 1970. Very Good Gatefold ... $24.99
A landmark crossover album – featuring Buddy Miles' mixed Freedom Express group, and a heavy jazz-rock sound that would soon dominate the charts with other groups.

Georges Garvarentz —
That Man In Istanbul ... LP Mainstream, 1966. Very Good+ ... $6.99
Groovy soundtrack for this 60's international intrique film starring a young Horst Bucholz. Georges Garvarentz wrote and directed the music, with the sort of flair that he brings to the best of projects like these.

Stan Getz & Astrud Gilberto —
Getz Au Go Go ... LP Verve, 1964. Very Good Gatefold ... $11.99
A beautiful dreamy album that's quite different from the classic Getz/Gilberto collaboration – but which also shares much of that set's lyrical beauty!

Soulful Strut ... LP Brunswick, 1968. Very Good+ ... Just Sold Out!
A funky soul instrumental classic – all the way through!

Thelonious Monk —
Unique Thelonious Monk (photo cover) ... LP Riverside, 1956. Very Good+ ... Just Sold Out!
The session's billed as "very personal treatments of great standards" – and it's a great twist on familiar material, all given the Thelonius touch! There's less of Monk's creative composition and angular group arrangements going on here – and instead, the album's almost a ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Steeleye Span —
Please To See The King ... LP Big Tree, 1971. Very Good+ ... $23.99
There's a slight shift here from the first album by Steeleye Span – a bit of a shift to just a touch of electric guitar and organ next to the bass guitar lines of Ashley Hutchings – which makes for an even more sinister sound than before! In keeping with their approach, most songs are ... (Folk/Country) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Rolf & Joachim Kuhn —
Monday Morning ... LP Black Label (Germany), 1969. Very Good+ ... $74.99
Great funky avant work from this mad German duo – sounding very much here as they do on their Mad Rockers mode!

Quintet Of The French Hot Club (10 inch LP) ... LP Dial, Late 40s. Very Good+ ... $59.99

Alton Ellis —
Mr Soul Of Jamaica ... LP Treasure Isle, Late 60s. Very Good+ ... Just Sold Out!
Mr Soul is right – as Alton Ellis was one of the greatest Jamaican singers of his generation, and an artist who was able to bring a deeper sense of soul than most!

Electric Light Orchestra —
Electric Light Orchestra (aka No Answer) ... LP United Artists, 1971. Very Good+ Gatefold ... Just Sold Out!
A mindblowing first album from ELO – recorded back at a time when the group were taking the "Orchestra" in their name seriously, and when the group included Roy Wood! While Jeff Lynne's nascent pop genius is firmly in place already, the album's also awash in some of Wood's madder, ... (Rock) read more LP, Vinyl record album

A standout set from Gil Scott-Heron – and that's saying a lot, given the strength of his other 70s work! This album's a double-length live set – one that has Gil taking on the familiar format of the 70s, and using it to really push the boundaries of his own music too! Most tracks are ...

Mighty Instrumentals ... LP King, 1966. Very Good+ ... $48.99
Mighty is right!

A lost treasure from the glory days of the LA soul jazz bop scene of the early 60s! Alto player Earl Anderza has this crazy tone that's unlike anything we've ever heard – and he plays with a calculated approach to atonality that hints at later work by Ayler and others – but which comes ...

Roland Kirk with Jack McDuff —
Funk Underneath (aka Kirk's Work) ... LP Prestige, 1966. Very Good+ ... $28.99
A strange and tasty little album that Roland Kirk made with organist Jack McDuff in the early 60s – one of his few outings in such a format, and a smoking little session that almost makes us wish he'd cut more of them! The format is relatively simple – with lots of interplay between ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

One of a few great 70s albums from Luis Gasca – a funky jazz player, but one who draws on a lot of Latin influences too – all in this sweet soulful mode that echoes some of the hippest Bay Area sounds of the time! Arrangements are done with help from Joe Gallardo – who also plays ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

American Dream ... LP Dooto, Mid 60s. Very Good ... $6.99
