Amiri Baraka —
It's Nation Time ... LP Black Forum/Motown, 1972. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... Just Sold Out!
An amazing record that's as powerful as the political message of the title – the hippest record ever cut by Amiri Baraka, and that's saying a heck of a lot!

Fantasy, 1959. Sealed ... $49.99
Maybe one of the coolest albums of poetry ever recorded – a set that features a young, pre-hippie Allen Ginsberg – delivering his epic poem Howel, plus some other key works too.
