Jasmine (UK), Early 60s. New Copy ... $13.99 14.99
Two fantastic early albums from The Browns – one of the greatest country harmony acts of all time! First up is Our Favorite Folk Songs – a set that maybe has a bit more of a stripped-down vibe than some of the other records by The Browns – stronger acoustic guitar, which is ... read more CD

A trio of early 70s albums from Glen Campbell – all of them a lot more obscure than his hits!

Sun/Varese, 1957. Used ... $6.99
One of the finer in Sun's collections of original mid-to-late 50s recordings by Johnny Cash – with rough hewn classics and comparably overlooked rumblers alike!

Never-heard sounds from Lynn Castle – a singer who was maybe more famous in 60s LA for her work as a hair stylist – even though she spent her free time turning out really beautiful songs like these!

Roadmaster ... CD Edsel/Demon (UK), 1972. Used ... Just Sold Out!
A warm, wonderful set of Gene Clark recordings from the early 70s – material that probably should have been issued as a proper album in the States back in the day, as sounds pretty much as solid to us as some of his great work in preceding years – but was issued only in Europe at the ...

Shirley Collins & Davy Graham —
Folk Roots New Routes ... CD Decca/Fledgling (UK), 1964. New Copy ... $14.99 15.98

Roulette/Wounded Bird, 1970. New Copy ... $3.99 11.98
A folk funk classic from Don Cooper – a folksy player at heart, but one who always manages to bring a gentle groove to his music! The set's got a spare sound that's totally great – vocals and guitar from Don, plus second guitar from Elliot Randall – and support from other light ... read more CD
Roulette/Wounded Bird, 1970. New Copy ... $6.99 11.98
Earthy work from Don Crawford – a very unique artist who works in a mix of soul and folk modes – a bit like Terry Callier at points, but with some more unusual touches as well! This album's got a pretty full set of arrangements, which makes for more of a Callier-like quality than some ... (Soul, Folk/Country) read more CD
Delmore, 1966. New Copy ... $13.99

Island/Hannibal (UK), 1969. Used ... $6.99
Godlike work from the legendary Nick Drake – and exactly the kind of record that's made him a continuing legend over the years!

Island/Hannibal, 1972. Used ... $5.99
A beautiful treasure from the legendary Nick Drake – the last album he ever recorded – and a set that may well be his most personal as well!

Ryko, Early 70s. Used ... $6.99
14 track compilation of rare and unreleased tracks by the late singer/songwriter Nick Drake.

Columbia, 1969. Used ... $3.99

One of the best rock albums of the late 60s, and probably THE best record Gram Parsons ever played on.

A heck of a great record from Jim Ford – an early 70s country outsider whose early work hardly got any circulation at the time – but who's managed to go on to become the stuff of legend over the years! This set's got Jim at his best – maybe sounding even more country than on his ... read more CD

With a look like that on the cover, and a title like that on the front, you can bet that Kinky Friedman was out to ruffle the mainstream world of country music in the 70s – which he maybe did at a level that was even more powerful than Kris Kristofferson or Willie Nelson with recordings like ... read more CD

A hell of a record, and one that definitely lives up to its promise of folk, blues, and beyond – as Davy Graham here is as comfortable with influences from Jack Elliott and Leadbelly as he is with Chico Hamilton, Bobby Timmons, and Charles Mingus!
