El (UK), Late 50s/Early 60s. New Copy 3CD ... $18.99
The great John Barry as a young man – stepping out here on songs that are a lot more rocking than his later fame as a soundtrack composer – served up in a massive 3CD box that collects together singles for Parlophone and Columbia, plus some early rock songs from films! The style here ... (Soundtracks, Sound Library) read more CD
Bruton Music/Vocalion (UK), 1978/1979. New Copy 2 CDs ... $19.99
Hard-driving work from UK sound library hero Brian Bennett – an artist who gave us so much great funky work at the start of the 70s, and who's still going strong here at the other end of the decade! Both records are mighty nice – a mixture of familiar funk with some deeper tones that ... read more CD
Pye/Vocalion (UK), 1974/1975. New Copy ... $18.99
Two great albums from Ray "funky trumpet" Davies – not the lead singer of The Kinks, but a heck of a groovy British bandleader from the 70s!

Born Bad (France), 1970s/Early 80s. New Copy ... $12.99
Fantastic sounds from an unsung French music hero – sonic genius Bernard Estardy, whose talents mostly lay behind the studio window, where he worked magic with some of the best French singers of the 60s through the 90s! Yet during that time, Estardy was also recording some very cool cuts of ... read more CD
RCA/Schema (Italy), 1966. New Copy ... $19.99
Some of the most striking work we've ever heard from this legendary Italian group – and that's saying a heck of a lot, given the power of their work in the 60s and 70s! The assemblage features important avant garde sounds from Ennio Morricone – and offers up a real look at the roots of ... (Out Sound, Sound Library) read more CD
Dominique Guiot —
L'Univers De La Mer ... CD Chicago 2000/WRWTFWW (Switzerland), 1978. New Copy ... $15.99
A beautiful album of keyboard-heavy tracks – issued by a small sound library label in France during the 70s, with a title that translates as "the universe of the sea"! As you might guess, there's a nice underwater vibe to the record – a sound that's similar to some of the ... read more CD
Athens Of The North (UK), 2018. New Copy ... $12.99
Every time we hear a new project from the team of Warren Hampshire & Greg Foat, we feel like they've raised the bar a little bit, and this homage to sound library jazz might be their best yet!

GAD (Poland), Mid 80s. Used ... $4.99
80s keyboards sparkle and glisten wonderfully here – a mix of Roland, Yamaha, and Korg keyboards – all played by Mikolaj Hertel in a few very cool suites of instrumental tunes! The music is maybe an extension of 70s electronic sound library modes, but also colored with some of the ... read more CD
Plastic (Italy), Early 70s/1998. Used ... $9.99
Totally cool! You may know I Gres from their great cuts on the Stroboscopia compilation of Italian funky soundtrack stuff, but this is a whole LP devoted to their hard electric instrumental grooves, with 14 cool tracks that have lots of excellent organ, Fender Rhodes, vibes, guitar – and ... read more CD
(Out of print.)
GAD (Poland), 1977. New Copy ... Just Sold Out!
A sweet set of grooves from the 70s – served up here by a Polish combo rooted in jazz, but who also seem to have a pretty great ear for clubby styles of the time! The music is mostly instrumental disco, but delivered from a jazz funk perspective – with some especially nice flute work ... read more CD
GAD (Poland), 1975/1976. New Copy ... $16.99
Jerzy Milian is a hell of a jazzman – and we really love his work on vibes on older albums of Polish jazz – but here, he's working as a top-flight arranger – creating some totally great moments of 70s funk, all matching the best sound library styles on the other side of the iron ... (Jazz, Sound Library) read more CD
Polskie Nagrania (Poland), Mid 70s. New Copy ... $16.99
Funky genius from Poland's Jerzy Milian – a vibes player we normally know in much smaller settings, but who sounds great here in an MPS-styled big band album from the 70s! The tracks are relatively short and punchy – all with some great rhythms and a fair bit of drum breaks too – ... (Jazz, Sound Library) read more CD
Also available Orkiestra Rozrywkowa Pritv W Katowicach ... LP 28.99
WRWTFWW (Switzerland), Early 70s. New Copy ... $16.99
Two unreleased soundtracks from electronic genius Bernard Parmegiani – both surprisingly tuneful, although also equally abstract!

BBE (UK), 1978. New Copy ... $13.99 14.99
The cover looks gothic, but the sound is plenty darn groovy – a sweet set of sound library instrumentals from the 70s scene in Paris – most of them served up with an upbeat, clubby sort of vibe! Yan Tregger may not be one of those names that immediately comes to the lips of underground ... read more CD
Also available Catchy ... LP 22.99
BBE (UK), 1979. New Copy ... $13.99 14.99
An underground funky gem – one that never made it past the collections of the elite sound library audience in the 70s – but which is well deserving of global acclaim! Yan Tregger works here in this style that's every bit as funky as his contemporaries on bigger library labels, but ... read more CD

Tra Scienza E Fantascienza ... CD Beat (Italy), 1976. New Copy ... $16.99
A wonderful sound library set from the great Piero Umiliani – and a record that's filled with some of his coolest electronics ever!

Moog Recordings Library, 2018. New Copy ... $14.99
Chris Watson's got a long legacy of experimental electronics – including work in The Hafler Trio and Cabaret Voltaire – and that certainly comes to bear here, as he turns out one of the noisiest sets we've heard from the Moog Recordings Library! Tracks have lots of those earthy ... read more CD
Chappell/Vocalion (UK), 1970s. New Copy ... $18.99
Dramatic music, but pretty darn groovy music as well – served up here in a set of work from the under-reissued Chappell sound library in the UK!

A very strange record that's a wild weird blend of easy listening tunes and avant classical bits – all recorded by Marvin Martin, and put together in a lovingly sexy package by German art photographer Charles Wilp! Ostensibly, the music was originally compiled to go with a package that Wilp ... read more CD

Buried Treasure (UK), 1970s/2018. New Copy ... $8.99

KPM/Vocalion (UK), 1970s. New Copy ... $18.99
Easy listening, but done the KPM Sound Library way – which means that most of the cuts here have a great undercurrent of funk!

Numero, Mid 80s. New Copy ... $12.99 15.98
The world of moogy music first exploded back in the late 60s – when artists like Bruce Haack, Perry-Kingsley, and others were making all these wonderfully weird records that featured heavy analogue electronics and other playful elements!
