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! Baraka delivers a long and complex set of poetic reflections on the state of Black America, spiritual awakening, and political ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
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. The young Ginsberg's voice is great – and really fills the works with a lot of bitterness and cynicism ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Shrinkwrap has a small hole in front and an index label on back.)
A spoken word classic – Richard Harris' reading of Kahlil Gibran's The Prophet – all set to some sublime backings from Arif Mardin! Harris has an even more pointed style of pronunciation than on some of his previous records on ABC – less of a shining tramp than the British actor ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Cover has some marks from sticker removal and light surface wear.)
A fantastic mix of jazz and spoken word performance – delivered in a very righteous style that takes us back to the best vintage sides by artists like Wanda Robinson or Jayne Cortez! The words here are by Camae Ayewa – whose lyrics are as politically powerful as her presentation style ... (Jazz, Spoken Word)read moreLP, Vinyl record album

A fantastic 60s happening committed to record – one of the famous "acid tests" by Ken Kesey – recorded over the span of 14 hours, and condensed to the space of a single album – featuring early work by The Grateful Dead, plus tape loops, harmonica solos, and lots of weird ...

A wild and wonderful hippy theatrical approach to jazz! The tracks are kind of theatrical interpretations of jazz work by Charles Mingus, Yusef Lateef, John Coltrane, Bill Evans, Sonny Rollins, and others – performed by a jazz group that includes trumpeter Wallace Roney, flautist Le Scott, ...

Wild work from Lord Buckley – a really unusual figure on the west coast scene in the late 50s – kind of a beat comic, but one with a vibe that was all his own – and this way with language and odd spirit that was years ahead of the flower children! Not that Buck was any sort of ... (Comedy, Spoken Word)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(80s UK pressing – Demon Verbals. Includes heavy inner sleeve.)
An unusual record – one that features most of a full episode of the show, with music by Shelly Manne, and narration and sound effects too! (Soundtracks, Spoken Word)LP, Vinyl record album
A great early record from Rod McKuen – maybe more of a beat poetry record than some of his later work – with jazzy backings by Paul Gray, and a group that features Tiny Timbrell on guitar and Phil Sobel on flute! (Vocalists, Spoken Word)LP, Vinyl record album
