Fishman (full length, 45 version)/Strut (UK), 1972. New Copy (pic cover, reissue)... $11.99

2 of Jean Carn's best tracks for Philly! Both cuts show Jean at her soulful best – with the kind of perfectly sensitive backing that Philly International gave her, which mixed jazz and soul, augmented with a nice clubby groove to keep things pumping. The single's a must-have for fans of ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record

AVI, 1980. Sealed (pic cover)... Just Sold Out!
Back in the day, Chicago never had much of a rap scene – which is why it was so easy for Chicago radio DJ Casper to score big with this little groover on the AVI label! The cut's actually not bad as sort of a funky clubby track – and Casper's rapping style reminds us a lot of Gary Byrd ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record

An incredible record from the Chicago scene – issued on a tiny little label from deep on the south side – and done with a much richer vibe than you might expect! "Attitude Belief & Determination" is a track that's almost got a righteous, spiritual sort of flavor – ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record

Stiff, 1979. Very Good+ ... $14.99
2 brilliant numbers from the post-punk/post-disco years – with a sound that presages a lot more work to come in the 80s! Both of the tracks have a nice parody of dancefloor rhythms of the time – and almost a Ze Records-like approach that features some great deadpan lyrics! "Reason ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record

One of Arthur Baker's shining moments – a poppy little tune, to be sure, but with a tight electro groove that's stood up a lot more than we would have thought at the time!
