Egg ... LP Deram, 1970. Very Good+ ...
Out Of Stock
The seminal first album from Egg – a legendary trio that featured a young Dave Stewart on organ, piano, and tone generator – and a key force in the Brit jazz rock scene of the early 70s! The album's sound is especially noteworthy in that there's really no guitar at all in the group ... (Rock) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Killer work from The Flirtations – originally an American group, but one who made a hip step to the UK in the mid 60s – where they began backing a lot of big artists, and also recorded this rare gem on their own! The sound is a wonderful blend of American soul and 60s UK girl pop ... (Soul) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Original US pressing! Cover has some light wear, and back has a sticker – but overall this is a very nice copy.)
A record that has some blues influences at the core, but which also really moves past that energy right away – by folding in some of the hipper, headier styles that Frijid Pink had picked up while working on the Detroit scene at the end of the 70s! The vocals are raw in a great way, and the ... (Rock) read moreLP, Vinyl record album

A real gem in the legendary Deram run from Keef Hartley – and like the rest of his work for the label, a great blend of jazz and rock elements, with a unique sound that's all its own!

A tremendous set from one of the best – and most under-recognized – groups of the British jazz rock scene at the end of the 60s!

Out Of Stock
A monster of a jazz rock set from drummer Keef Hartley – a player who initially came to fame for his funky grooves in John Mayall's Bluesbreakers!

Keef Hartley always keeps things cool, and this album's no exception to that rule – a wicked set of jazz rock numbers with a hard undercurrent of funk!

John Mayall's Blues Breakers —
Hard Road ... LP Deram, 1967. Very Good+ ...
Out Of Stock
A killer album from one of the most legendary versions of John Mayall's Blues Breakers – a quartet that features drummer Aynsley Dunbar, bassist John McVie, and lead guitarist Peter Green – who's also singing a fair bit on the album as well! The style here is tighter and more focused ... (Rock) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Possibly one of the best-remembered albums by John Mayall's legendary Blues Breakers combo – thanks to vocals and guitar from a young Eric Clapton!

Here's a guy with a great gimmick – whistling! Jack Smith was a youngster, but he could blow with the best of them – whistling his way through the massive international pop hit "I Was Kaiser Bill's Batman" – a tune that's as groovy as it sounds, with a crashing goofy ...

Ten Years After —

Temporarily Out Of Stock
A searing live document of the magic of Ten Years After – recorded at London's Klooks Kleek as a great example of the kind of sound that got the group a huge amount of attention before they were even signed to a record label!
