Touch Of Silk ... LP Columbia, 1980. Near Mint- ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Smooth as silk, with plenty of soul – a classic set that has the guitar of Eric Gale produced by the legendary Allen Toussaint! The cross of talents is pretty compelling – and although the album's not a New Orleans funk outing, it definitely shares some of the more creative elements ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Columbia, 1957. Very Good+ ... $6.99 9.99
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! Garner's still got a bit of his trademark sense of rhythm here, but he also works with a more powerful sense of flow – ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Columbia, 1969. Very Good+ ... $16.99
Beautifully tripped-out material from Gale Garnett & The Gentle Reign – titled after the Sausalito Heliport, a northern California complex that housed a bunch of hippy dippy bands in the late 60s!

Marvin Gaye —
Midnight Love ... LP Columbia, 1982. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
Marvin Gaye's last album ever – and a sensuous batch of grooves that almost return him to the sound of Let's Get It On! The style here is a bit more modern, but the sound is still great – a smoother approach to soul than most of Gaye's contemporaries at the time, recorded in a way that ...

Three Friends ... LP Columbia, 1972. Very Good Gatefold ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
An unusual little concept record from Gentle Giant – one based around the story of three childhood friends each going their own separate ways – but served up with enough of the group's usual jazzy flair to keep things interesting!

Stan Getz —
Captain Marvel ... LP Columbia, 1972. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
A wicked album that's one of Stan Getz's best from the 70s! The record features Stan reunited with Chick Corea, whose warm lyricism was the lynchpin in Getz's landmark Sweet Rain – the stunning session from 1968 that is perhaps our favorite-ever Getz album. Corea plays electric piano here, ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

An incredible batch of freely crafted tracks from Jimmy Giuffre's legendary early 60s trio!

The music is beautiful – ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Columbia, 1985. Near Mint- 3LP Box Set ... $33.99 39.99
Amazing work from Philip Glass – his second great opera, and a long-overdue follow-up to Einstein On The Beach – a set of music that's every bit as great as that groundbreaking work, but maybe even with stronger, fuller execution overall! The piece looks at the early political years of ... (Out Sound) read more LP, Vinyl record album
