Elektra, 1981. Very Good+ Gatefold ... $14.99
A smooth set from reedman John Klemmer, but a pretty darn soulful one too – and a great illustration of the way that Klemmer could still hold onto his roots a lot more strongly than some of his contemporaries!

Cadet, 1967. Near Mint- ... $9.99
Beautiful early work from John Klemmer – one of the most under-rated talents of his generation, and a great player who frequently gets overlooked because of his later, smoother work.

Lifestyle (Living & Loving) ... LP ABC, 1977. Very Good+ ... $0.99
Sweet, smooth, and soulfully beautiful work from John Klemmer – not as all-out cosmic or trippy as some of his earlier albums for ABC, but with some really nice moments!

Great later blowing from John Klemmer – clear, clean, and extremely well-focused – with nary a dull moment throughout!

Gladys Knight steps out on her own – in her very first solo album, after years of recording with The Pips!
