Terry Allen has always been one of the most enigmatic figures in Texas music – but the work included here might well be some of his most compelling – even if it is a bit far from the straighter country of his start!

Avant/Triple Point, 1996. New Copy (reissue)... $24.99
Guitarist Duck Baker takes on the music of Herbie Nichols – the sometime-overlooked modernist of the postwar years, a player that some folks rank right up there with Thelonious Monk – later given his due with a run of revival projects like this! Nichols' music sounds very different ... (Jazz, Folk/Country) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Elektra, Late 60s. Very Good ... $33.99
One of Tim Buckley's greatest albums ever – thanks to some incredible work by Dave Friedman on vibes!

DiscReet, 1973. Very Good+ ... $19.99
The last album that Tim Buckley ever gave the world – and a great leaping-off point for speculation about what he might have done, had he not left the planet too soon!

(Original pressing! Cover has light wear, mostly in one bottom corner.)
Vanguard, 1963. Very Good ... $24.99
Mindblowing minimalism from the legendary Sandy Bull – an artist who might have had acoustic roots in folk music, but who was instantly turning his music into something else – drawing on modal styles of Eastern music, European generations of expression on guitar, jazz-based ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

A fantastic lost slice of work from Glen Campbell – recorded in the studio during the years of his big initial fame in the 60s – but never issued to the public at all! Instead, these tracks were recorded for "The King" – that is, Elvis Presley – a bit like demos ... (Rock, Folk/Country) read more LP, Vinyl record album

United Artists, 1973. Very Good ... $6.99
A mixture of folksy guitar and electronics, with lots of minimoog, ring modulator, and even some "electronic ocean" (whatever that is!).

Prestige/Folklore, Early 60s. Very Good+ ... Just Sold Out!
Beautiful early work from Bonnie Dobson – an artist you might know from later crossover pop-folk work, but who's recorded here in a stripped-down setting that's really amazing!

Island, 1969. New Copy (reissue)... $53.99 59.98
Godlike work from the legendary Nick Drake – and exactly the kind of record that's made him a continuing legend over the years!

(Cover has light wear.)
Takoma, 1973. Near Mint- ... $43.99
A wonderful set from the early 70s – a record that has John Fahey opening up even more than before, on three very long tracks that really extend his ideas into a much more open space! The territory is maybe a bit more in the mode of Robbie Basho or Sandy Bull – and the pieces ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(A beautiful copy – black and gold print label, with Takoma logo. One corner of the spine has some very light splitting, but this is a great copy overall.)
Takoma, 1965. Very Good+ ... $28.99
One of the first full albums recorded by the legendary John Fahey – originally issued on the tiny Riverboat label, then circulated more widely on his own Takoma imprint!

Gilded Palace Of Sin ... LP A&M, 1969. Very Good ... Just Sold Out!
One of the best rock albums of the late 60s, and probably THE best record Gram Parsons ever played on. Parsons spearheaded the sound earlier with the International Submarine Band and the Byrds, but this first Burritos album is where the epiphanies are found. Traditionally structured weepers that ...

Capitol, 1967. Very Good+ ... $19.99
A key late 60s country crossover set, but one that also inspired a fair bit of funk as well!

A nice one from Merle's initial years at Columbia – with slightly fuller backings than on some of his previous work.

Capitol, 1970. Very Good ... $6.99
An album by one of the greatest American songwriters and interpreters who ever lived – the one and only Merle Haggard!

(Lime green label pressing. Cover has light wear.)
Capitol, 1971. Very Good+ ... $14.99
One of Merle's stronger albums of mostly original material – Merle has always been as strong of an interpreter as he is a writer – and the title is appropriate for the record, featuring only three covers. Tracks include "Soldier's Last Letter", "I Can't Be Myself", ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
MCA, 1978. Very Good+ ... $6.99
Merle's always great – even post-Capitol, recording here for MCA! Titles include the great title cut – plus Haggard originals "The Immigrant", "The Dream", "It's Been A Great Afternoon", and "Love Me When You Can". LP, Vinyl record album
Capitol, 1973. Very Good ... $3.99
One of Hag's stellar early 70s efforts for Capitol – with the prolific Merle dividing the set between his own numbers, a handful of traditional pieces and some nice tracks by other writers. Hag also strays from the straight honky tonk he pioneered in the late 60s into some gospel and ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Capitol, 1972. Very Good ... $6.99
An early 70s album from Hag that mostly contains slower paced country tunes, many of which have to do with lost love. As usual, The Strangers sound great, subtly providing the background for Haggard's great voice, although they do have some nice solo moments. Tracks include "It's Not Love ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Merle Haggard —
Let Me Tell You About A Song ... LP Capitol, 1972. Very Good- ... $3.99
Prime Hag, recorded during his peak song writing years in the early 70s, and one of the better LPs recorded with the Strangers! Merle's in his gentler story song mode for much of the record, but with driving Bakersfield honky tonk sound to keep things moving at a tight clip. Haggard penned ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Let's get this straight. Merle Haggard SINGS "Okie From Muskogee" but he is not THE "Okie From Muskogee". Nevertheless, this is the record that put the honky in honky tonk.
