A&M, Late 60s. Near Mint- ... $7.99
A fantastic record from the late 60s years of Herb Alpert – a time when the trumpeter was really opening up his sound, and starting to hit some of the same cool styles of his other great acts on the A&M label!

(Tan label stereo pressing.)
A&M, 1974. Very Good+ ... $2.99
Nice one from Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass – working with arranger Quincy Jones!

Burt Bacharach (1971) ... LP A&M, 1971. Very Good Gatefold ... $1.99
Insanely wonderful work by Bacharach – in a way that we can hardly begin to describe (but we'll certainly try!)

Burt Bacharach —
Futures ... LP A&M, 1977. Sealed ... $7.99
The maestro lets us down – and even on this late 70s album, Burt Bacharach still sounds great – stepping out in a swirling mix of strings, jazz, and studio arrangements that are still far beyond the work of most of his contemporaries! There's a sophisticated, adult quality to this ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Still sealed, with a cutout notch and small hole in front.)
A&M, 1967. Very Good+ ... $7.99
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

A&M, 1979. Sealed ... $7.99
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

Some very groovy big band work from Louis Bellson – working here in a Project 3 mode that's as much funky easy as it is jazz!

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!

Play Time (France), 1969. New Copy ... $21.99
One of the grooviest albums ever by this baroque French arranger!

Decca, Late 60s. Near Mint- ... $14.99
Very groovy stuff from Cugie! It's the late 60s, and he's got more of a pop Latin groove than earlier – and lays down some nice peppy covers of pop material, plus a few other Latin standards.

United Artists, Early 60s. Very Good+ ... $34.99
Although at first glance, this album appears to be a batch of soporific easy instrumentals, in the vein of lush string-heavy European orchestras – it's actually a pretty compelling set of dark moody tracks, arranged and conducted by Luchi, with production by Alan Douglas.

United Artists/P-Vine (Japan), 1970. New Copy (reissue)... $36.99
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!

A great later moment from Martin Denny – a set that gave him a big 60s hit in a sweet version of "Taste of Honey"!

Other Worlds Other Sounds ... LP RCA, 1958. Very Good+ ... $24.99
One of the most memorable Esquivel albums, and perhaps the first record that really let him hit his fantastic mix of off-beat orchestrations and spacey electronicized production!

A set that's heavy on strings, but still has some of the nice punch you'd find in the best Ferrante & Teicher albums of the 70s – done in conjunction with producer George Butler, but still with some traces of the old days too!

United Artists, Early 60s. Near Mint- ... $2.99
One of the nicest albums that Ferrante & Teicher cut for United Artists!

Westminster, 1956. Very Good+ ... $29.99
Mindblowing work from the duo of Ferrante & Teicher – a set that's filled with odd experiments, prepared piano techniques, and a lot more weird sounds than their straighter pop albums of the 60s!
