The debut album from Cynthia Schloss – a reggae singer who'd go on to bring a whole new level of soul to Jamaican music!

Universal, Mid 70s. New Copy 2LP Gatefold ... $24.99 46.99
The Sex Pistols only gave the world one full album before breaking up – the monumental God Save The Queen, a set that testifies to the raw energy that made it seem inevitable that their light would burn so brightly, it would soon burn out!

Columbia/Sunbeam (UK), 1967. New Copy (reissue)... $21.99 34.98
A hell of a groove from organist Don Shinn – one of the legendary albums recorded for the Landsdowne Series in the UK at the end of the 60s – and like the rest, a set that turns conventional jazz on its ear!

Of The Cosmos/Moved By Sound (UK), 1979. New Copy (reissue)... $30.99 44.99
A masterful moment as a leader from bassist Sirone – one of his only albums in the lead, and a very different set than some of his work with the Revolutionary Ensemble!

The really great debut album from Sprung Aus Den Wolken – a group who got a bit more tuneful in later years, but who here are still very much at the forefront of the early German industrial scene!

Polydor/Universal (Japan), 1965. New Copy (reissue)... $29.99 54.99

EMI/Svart (Finland), 1975. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... $18.99 34.99

Euphoria Blimp Works/Lion, Early 70s. New Copy (reissue)... $12.99 29.99
