ABC, Late 60s. Near Mint- ... $6.99
Mod 60s all the way – as the film stars Michael York, Rita Tushingham, and Lynn Redgrave! The score is by John Addison, and actually more than half of the numbers are vocal ones – featuring the girls singing in series of whimsical tunes that are sort of a 60s take on the Merry Old ...

His California Album ... LP ABC, 1973. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
A nice little record from Bobby – quite different from his 60s sides for Duke/Peacock, and recorded in California (as you might guess from the title!) with a smoother more soulful approach. The style works well for Bobby – and kind of gave him a new lease on life during the 70s, as he ... (Blues) read more LP, Vinyl record album
ABC, 1975. Near Mint- ... $18.99
We've got to admit, we don't know much about Angelo Bond, but we've always had kind of a soft spot for this nice overlooked album of 70s soul tracks recorded for ABC.

ABC, Late 50s. Very Good- ... $9.99
One of the jazziest Candido albums ever – a tight little 50s set that features the master congolero working with a small combo that includes Al Cohn on tenor, Dick Katz on piano, and Joe Puma on guitar!

A stunning standout from Ray Charles' years on ABC Records – and a set that brings in a bit of hard-swinging jazz to the country-styled groove Ray was hitting at the time!

A classic album of soul duets – and one of the deeper records cut by Betty during the 60s!

Despite the political overtones of the title, this funky rock band sticks mostly in conventional pop territory.

Terry Reid —
Seed Of Memory ... LP ABC, 1976. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
A bit later than Terry Reid's real classics, but also a surprisingly nice little record – even if the sound is different! Graham Nash produced, and the record has a style that mixes raspy vocals and acoustic guitar with some sweeter, smoother touches – almost an LA fantasy of country ...

Joe Sample —
Rainbow Seeker ... LP ABC, 1978. Near Mint- ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A great album of tightly produced R&B-tinged fusion, headed up by keyboardist Joe Sample, riding high here on the fame of The Crusaders. The other members of the group drop in on the album, and the whole thing's very similar to their best work from the late 70s – but with more of a focus ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
