Argo/Universal (Japan), 1960. New Copy ... $18.99 23.99 About April 17, 2024
A sprightly set from the Ahmad Jamal Trio – but also a record that's not as brightly colored as you might guess from the title, thanks to a nice undercurrent of darkness in the mix! Jamal's piano work is often nicely punctuated – perhaps living up to the "happy moods" ... (Jazz) read more CD

Garden Of Love (with bonus tracks) ... CD Gordy/Universal (Japan), 1980. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
An overlooked gem from Rick James' classic early run for Motown – a set that maybe didn't chart as big as some of his other records for the label, but which stands strongly today as a well-crafted batch of mellow funky soul! James has a bit less of the bass-heavy riffs here than you'd expect ... (Soul) read more CD
