Incredible early recordings by The Fugs – a set that captures the group at a time when they still had tremendous power and potential!

(Later stereo pressing with ESP label on Side A/white label on Side B, in a 55 St NY cover. Cover has light wear and aging.)
One of Dizzy Gillespie's hippest big band sessions ever – and one of the few dates as a leader from arranger Gil Fuller!

Lowell Fulsom —
Lovemaker ... LP Big Town, 1978. Sealed ...
Just Sold Out!
A bit later than some of Lowell Fulsom's funk work for Kent Records – but a set that's almost more vintage overall! The album's recorded for the short-lived Big Town imprint – a late 70s venue that took older R&B artists back to the sounds of a few decades before – never too ...

(Sealed original pressing! Cover has a small cutout hole.)
A massive double length set from Funkadelic! As if the group's vision wasn't already expansive enough in their early Westbound years, they really make incredible use of the space of this 2LP set to show off their talent for funky invention, fuzzed-out guitar, and mind-bending look at the world ...

A rock/soul outing from Gale Force – a group comprised of brothers Len and Ken Gale, hence the name!

(Tri-color stereo pressing with deep groove. Includes the Reprise inner sleeve. Cover is bent a bit at the bottom right corner.)
A very personal album from Erroll Garner, as you might guess from the title – a set of solo piano numbers delivered with an even deeper sense of lyricism than usual!

The moods of Marvin Gaye are many, even at this early point in his career – as the set has the young Marvin really taking off strongly – hitting hard on classic Motown groovers, but also showing a sensitive side at times too!
