Gato Barbieri —
El Pampero ... CD 
Flying Dutchman/BGP (UK), 1972. Used ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A real killer from Gato Barbieri – part of an excellent run of early 70s sessions for the Flying Dutchman label! The album was recorded live, and it's one of those real cookers that have him sounding a heck of a lot like Pharoah Sanders – blowing with these sharp, soulful tones – ... (Jazz) read more CD
Flying Dutchman/BGP (UK), 1971. Used ... $8.99
One of Gato's best! The record's neither too out, nor too poppy – and it has Barbieri playing with that incredible raspy tone – and working over modal grooves laid down by a hip group that includes Lonnie Liston Smith on acoustic and electric pianos, Ron Carter on bass, Lennie White on ...

Blackbyrds —
Night Grooves ... CD Fantasy/BGP (UK), 1978. New Copy ... $9.99 14.99
A great album of funky dancefloor tunes! Originally issued in 1978, and clearly for the New York dancefloor crowd – the record takes the earlier work of funk group The Blackbyrds, and remixes the tracks slightly to pump up the groove a bit for the dancers. While the approach might not sound ... (Soul) read more CD

BGP (UK), Early 80s. New Copy ... $9.99
Two slices of clubby gospel from the great Clark Sisters! "Everything Is Gonna Be Alright" moves at a mighty fast clip – a cut that's almost even too quick for the clubs, which makes the vocal tightness of the group even more amazing! "You Brought The Sunshine" has ... (Funky 45's) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Flying Dutchman/BGP (UK), 1972. Used ... $6.99
One of Larry Coryell's greatest albums ever! Barefoot Boy is a much more expansive session than some of Coryell's others, fueled in part by the spiritual intensity of the Impulse Records generation. It's got a momentum that's pretty darn exciting throughout – but the compositions are nice ... (Jazz) read more CD

George Russell Presents The Esoteric Circle ... CD Freedom/BGP (UK), 1971. Used ... Out Of Stock
Groundbreaking sounds from the Norwegian scene of the late 60s – an album that's got George Russell's name on the cover, but which actually features brilliant performances from a quartet who'd go onto become huge names in the ECM scene of the 70s! Yet the sound here is quite different than ... (Jazz) read more CD

Prestige/BGP (UK), 1972. New Copy (reissue)... $16.99 19.99
Funky organ, hard tenor sax, and plenty of choppy guitar make this another jazz funk gem in the crown of the legendary Funk Inc!

BGP (UK), 1973/1996. New Copy (reissue)... $16.99 19.99
One of Funk Inc's greatest albums – and a really tight batch of funky tunes given some stellar production by David Axelrod!

BGP (UK), 1972. New Copy ... $9.99

A wild one! After the straight hard funk of some of his earlier recordings as a leader, Bernard "Pretty" Purdie breaks out here in a compelling album of soul jazz tracks done in a number of styles. The approach is sort of big studio funk – with some cuts that have a harder sound, ... (Jazz) read more CD
Gil Scott-Heron —
Pieces Of A Man (180 gram pressing) ... LP Flying Dutchman/BGP (UK), 1971. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... Just Sold Out!
Our favorite-ever album from Gil Scott-Heron – and a set that we'd easily rank as one of our favorite soul records of the 70s!

Flying Dutchman/BGP (UK), 1973. Used ... $7.99
One of Lonnie Liston Smith's most spiritual sessions, and the record that most clearly shows his roots with Pharoah Sanders! The vibe here is much more jazz-based than on some of Lonnie's other records for Flying Dutchman – with Smith playing as much acoustic piano as he does electric, using ... (Jazz) read more CD
Flying Dutchman/BGP (UK), 1975. New Copy (reissue)... About March 27, 2020
Quite possibly the most celebrated album ever from keyboardist Lonnie Liston Smith – a groove-heavy classic that's burned up many a dancefloor in its day, yet also a record that features some great mellow moments as well! The title track "Expansions" is virtually a blueprint for ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Can You Feel It ... LP BGP (UK), 1972. New Copy (reissue)... $16.99 19.99
Incredible work from a group who've definitely earned their name!
