A Chahine & Fils/BBE (UK), 1979. New Copy 2LP Gatefold (reissue)... $26.99 29.99
A really fantastic little record – and one that's even better than you might expect from the title – which itself is already pretty darn fantastic! The set is upbeat and funky, but not entirely disco – more this very groovy blend of Mid-East elements and more familiar keyboards ... (Global Grooves, Now Sound) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Warner, 1969. Near Mint- ... $39.99
A wonderful record from guitarist Laurindo Almeida – way way better than the title might make you think, and quite different from his albums for Capitol! The album is subtitled "electronic excursions", and while it's not exactly electronic, it does feature Almeida soloing over some ... (Jazz, Now Sound) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Green label stereo pressing. Cover has light wear, lightly bent corner at the bottom right, and a bit of pen on back.)
Herb Alpert, 2017. New Copy 2LP Gatefold ... $18.99 24.98
A nice little Holiday album from trumpeter Herb Alpert – whose 60s set with the Tijuana Brass might well be one of our favorite Christmas albums of all time! The TJB is long gone, but Herb's still in the lead – working with a larger orchestra directed by Chris Walden – who ... (Holiday Music, Now Sound) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass —
Christmas Album ... LP A&M/Herb Alpert, 1968. New Copy (reissue)... Just Sold Out!
A beautiful Holiday classic from Herb – recorded for A&M during his glory years, and done in the core Tijuana Brass style, but with some added arrangements on voices and strings by Shorty Rogers! The album's worth it alone for Herb's great take on the Bacharach groover "The Bell ... (Holiday Music, Now Sound) read more LP, Vinyl record album

(Tan label stereo pressing. Includes the A&M inner sleeve.)
A&M, 1967. Near Mint- ... $9.99
Sounds like Herb Alpert, but it grooves in ways that we hardly expected – playful, creative, and filled with so many more rhythms than just the Tijuana groove we might have thought! There's a real deepening sense of instrumental pop going on here – as Herb explores some of the darker ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Tan label stereo pressing. Includes the Herb Alpert inner sleeve. Cover has clear tape inside the opening, in fantastic shape otherwise.)
RCA, 1960. Very Good+ ... $9.99
A very unique outing – a set that mixes the sweet harmonies of The Ames Brothers with wild backings from Esquivel! Most of the tracks are in Spanish, and have Esquivel doing a standard Latin sound, but which also approaches his own solo work in some of the more unusual moments! (Vocalists, Now Sound) LP, Vinyl record album
(Stereo pressing with deep groove. Cover has light wear and a split top seam.)
Mental Experience (Spain), Early 70s. New Copy ... $26.99
Really great sounds from an artist with "moog" in his name – and a fair bit in his music as well! Emilio Aparicio Moog recorded these tracks on the Guatemala scene in the 70s – and the titles were mostly issued as ultra-rare 45s, but are brought together here in one heck of a ...

A&M/MFP (UK), Early 70s. Near Mint- ... $14.99
An incredible live recording by Burt Bacharach – and one that wasn't issued in the US! This early 70s concert is great proof that the Bacharach magic didn't come from any studio tricks – but from the genius of Burt himself – as the maestro's working here in a fantastic larger-than ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Burt Bacharach —
Reach Out ... LP A&M, 1967. Very Good+ ... $4.99
Fantastic! We love Burt Bacharach in so many ways that it's easy to forget the genius of these early A&M sides – but going back to them is always a treat, and it's wonderful to hear the way that Burt lays down his own work when given the chance! You know the tracks – "House ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Burt Bacharach —
Woman ... LP A&M, 1979. Very Good+ ... $2.99
An ambitious album by Burt Bacharach – recorded with the Houston Symphony Orchestra, but done straight in a four hour session – which gives the set a sense of liveness and spontaneity that's quite fresh, and which escapes some of the 70s studio overindulgence of the time! Most tracks ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Omega/Modern Harmonic, 1958. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... $23.99 24.99

Count Basie & His Orchestra —
Basie's Beatle Bag ... LP Verve, 1966. Near Mint- ... Just Sold Out!
An amazing little record – with results that are even greater than the sum of its parts! As you'd guess from the title, Count Basie takes on the 60s sounds of The Beatles – but he's doing so with arrangements from the great Chico O'Farrill – who really keeps things interesting ...

Philips, 1960s. Very Good Gatefold ... $9.99

Carosello/Schema (Italy), 1969. New Copy (reissue)... $28.99 34.99
An Italian funk double-header – a sweet little set from the end of the 60s, and one that features killer cuts from both Sandro Brugnolini and Stefano Torossi!

Capitol, Late 50s. Very Good ... $9.99
Sam was the very popular tenor player behind Louis Prima's best recordings of the 50s – and although he was never given his due as a full-time honker and shouter, he actually played a pretty mean horn when he wanted to, which he does to full effect on this Capitol set from the late 50s.

Cesana Strings —
Sheer Ecstasy ... LP Warner, 1960. Very Good+ ... $14.99
The subtitle for this says "The Luxuriously Slow Moods of...", and it's right! Despite a racy nude on the cover, reclining on a cool chair and smelling a flower, this music is more sleepy than sexy. Still, it's got the rich Cesana sound to it, with banks of strings banking nicely around ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Cinedelic (Italy), 1973. New Copy (reissue)... $23.99
With a cover like that, it's easy to see where the fantasy in the title is going – certainly not into the musky world of swords and sorcery, and instead into the realm of slinky sounds that are right at home in the Italian sound library world of the 70s! The music here has all the warm ... (Sound Library, Now Sound) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Balkan Rhapsody ... LP MPS (Germany), 1970. Very Good+ Gatefold ... $24.99
Some of the grooviest classical piano work you'll ever hope to hear, thanks to the keyboard talents of the amazing Eugen Cicero – heard here on a rare LP of material recorded for the MPS label!

A strange little record – but one with some very groovy moments!

One of the few albums ever cut by Les DeMerle, one of the hippest drummers of his time – made legendary thanks to legions of samplers and beatheads in the 90s!

Bridge Over Troubled Water ... LP A&M, 1969. Very Good+ Gatefold ... $14.99
Paul Desmond serves up his own versions of some key tunes by Simon & Garfunkel tunes – with results that are simply amazing!

A very unusual album from Russ Garcia – one recorded with a vocal choir singing (mostly) wordlessly on the tunes!

Lovesick ... LP Verve, Mid 60s. Very Good+ Gatefold ... $3.99
Wonderfully groovy work from the team of Jackie Cain & Roy Kral – a set that has the pair moving into much hipper modes for the 60s, and really taking off from the greatness of earlier records! Backing is still by Roy's core trio, with acoustic piano at the lead – but the addition ... (Vocalists, Now Sound) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Capitol/Creative World, 1963. Near Mint- ... $1.99
Moody 60's set in which Kenton has Pete Rugolo re-arrange some of his classics, then set them to lyrics written by Milt Raskin, which are then sung by a wispy chorus.

Columbia, Mid 60s. New Copy (reissue)... $4.99
Wonderful stuff – way more than just an easy instrumental album, and a great batch of exotic tunes with lots of jazzy touches!

Straight, 1956. Near Mint- Gatefold ... $24.99
One of the strongest recordings ever made of the mad mad Lord Buckley! The album was issued in the late 60s for Frank Zappa's Straight label – but it features material recorded more than a decade before – at a time when Buckley was still alive, and one of the most bad-rapping comedian's ...
