Emerge ... LP Probe/ABC, 1969. Very Good- Gatefold ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Heavy fuzzed out psychedelia from the late 60s Twin Cities scene – the wild and hard charging Emerge from The Litter – with a heft that would be just as right at home in Detroit at the time as it was in Minneapolis!

Music Lets Me Be ... LP ABC, 1977. Very Good+ ... Just Sold Out!
Soulful keyboards from Les McCann – and a bit of vocals too – all set to some mighty sweet soul based backings!
