Ace (UK), Late 50s. Near Mint- ... $7.99
The Teen Queens were a hip R&B duo who deserve a lot more credit than their silly name might make you think. They had a style that was part raw R&B, and part 60s girl group, years before the girl group format was around long enough to become a cliche! (Soul) LP, Vinyl record album
(Mid 80s issue. Cover has lightly bet corners and a small stain.)
Gee, 1956. Very Good+ ... $9.99
They may be Teenagers, but this is hardly teen pop – as the album's a key step in the direction towards soul music for the 60s – thanks to the mighty power of the tragic Frankie Lymon! There's a sense of darkness to the album right from the start – even in the hit that kicks ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Gordy, 1973. Very Good ... $8.99
One of the last totally righteous albums by the Temptations – recorded at the end of their progressive run at Motown, and done with some really hard-hitting tunes and production from Norman Whitfield!

Gordy, 1972. Near Mint- ... $16.99
The Temptations going in all directions – and all of them pretty darn groovy too!

Motown, 1975. Very Good ... $4.99
A tightly funky set from The Temptations – a record that has the group still standing strong in the post-Norman Whitfield years – working here with producer Jeffrey Bowen in a groove that's almost got some P-Funk touches at times! Things are somewhat polished, but still in the best ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Chrysalis (France), Late 1960s-Mid 1970s. Very Good+ ... $5.99
Prestige, 1967. Very Good+ ... $11.99 13.99
A sweet bit of electric sax work from Buddy Terry – who plays acoustic tenor on half the album, and Varitone on the other half! The groove is great – a bit more unusual and open than the regular Prestige soul jazz outing of the time – and with a great lineup that includes Jimmy ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

(Cover has light ringwear, aging, bumped corners, and a tiny split in the bottom seam.)
Mainstream, 1966. Very Good+ ... $9.99
A surprisingly great little record from Clark Terry – filled with warmth, humor, and some really great grooves! The core of the album is the track "Mumbles", one that's based around Terry kind of slurring a scat vocal to a jazzy 60s groove. The track was a minor hit at the time, ...

Clark Terry —
Swahili (aka Clark Terry) (Trip) ... LP EmArcy/Trip, Mid 50s. Very Good+ ... $3.99
A stunner – and one of Clark Terry's finest moments ever!

Clark Terry & Chico O'Farrill —
Spanish Rice ... LP Impulse, 1966. Very Good+ Gatefold ... $13.99
Sweet Latin licks from Clark Terry and Chico O'Farrill – cut in a mode that's very similar to O'Farrill's best Verve work of the 60s! The vibe is kind of a mod take on Afro Cuban sounds – not really Latin soul, but with a playful vibe that mixes together jazz and Latin with equal parts ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

King, Late 50s. Very Good+ ... $79.99
Very early work from Joe Tex – recorded way before his boogie records of the 70s, and even his country soul classics of the 60s!

Mike's come a long way from his early soul days with Dennis Coffey – working here to lay down a set of spacious disco tunes with a dreamy finish – really stretching out with the same sort of glide you'd find in the best Philly club at the time!

It may be commercial reggae, but the strength of the group's version of "Now That We Found Love" really pushed them over the top!
