✨✧ CoffeeSecond Cup ... LP
De-Lite, 1982. Very Good+ ... Out Of Stock
The second album by this obscure Chicago group – a club-oriented female trio, in the same vein as First Choice and other famous Philly groups. The girls actually have a pretty soulful sound, and with Tony Valor mixing and producing, the record's got a sound that mixes smooth soul with ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

✨✧ CoffeeSlippin' & Dippin' (with bonus tracks) ... CD
De-Lite/Big Break (UK), 1980. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
A wonderful female soul trio from the Chicago scene of the 70s – and one we'd stand strongly next to the best gal groups from the Philly or New York scenes! In fact, Coffee were a bit unique in the city – which mostly had male groups getting the record contracts during the decade ... (Soul) read more CD

Robinsongs/De-Lite (UK), Late 1970s/Early 1980s. New Copy 3CD ... $26.99 33.99
A huge collection of work from Crown Heights Affair – a group who were famously labelmates of Kool & The Gang in the late 70s, where they recorded an equally great run of funky grooves! As with K&TG, Crown Heights started out with a harder funky edge, then big-upped their size and ... (Soul) read more CD

De-Lite/Unidisc (Canada), 1976. Used ... Out Of Stock
A record that ended up in more than a few 70s record collections because of its sexy cover image – but a set that's even better when you get down into the grooves – thanks to massively funky work from Crown Heights Affair!

De-Lite, 1978. Very Good+ ... Out Of Stock
A tasty little disco album that's a lot better than you might think! In some ways, this might be Crown Heights Affair's most perfectly realized album – as it's got lots of long tracks that mix the group's always-tight instrumental style with a spacey soul sensibility that's quite captivating. ...

A dream of a record from Crown Heights Affair – the group's classic first set, and maybe as fine a batch of early club work you could ever hope to find! Like so many of the east coast acts at the start of the disco generation, these guys are a well-trained funk ensemble, playing at a faster ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

A disco dazzler from the glory days of the De-Lite Records scene – served up here by a group who really hit all the best sort of groove's you'd expect from that legendary imprint!

✨✧ Kool & The GangBest Of Kool & The Gang ... LP
De-Lite, Early 70s. Very Good+ ... Out Of Stock
This one's called a "best of", but it's really one of the group's first albums, and it pulls together a host of great early tracks, some of which were only ever on singles! The record's got a shiny gold cover, and it's rare as hen's teeth! Titles include "The Penguin", "Le ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

De-Lite, 1984. Near Mint- ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Sweet 80s sounds from the legendary Kool & The Gang – one of the key classics from the second chapter of the group – when their lineup and sound were a lot leaner than before, and they managed to cross over big to a much wider audience than before! The upbeat cuts show that the ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

De-Lite/PTG (Netherlands), 1978. Used ... Out Of Stock
Kool & The Gang sounding super-tight, but mighty right as well – a groove that still has all the great jazz elements of their mid 70s records, but which also has them picking up the bassy bottom a bit more too! The sound is not nearly as slick as their 80s hits – and instead still ... (Soul) read more CD

De-Lite, 1979. Very Good+ ... Out Of Stock
A shameless dancefloor cash-in move – but a record that's still pretty darn great as well! You all know the big title cut "Ladies Night", so we won't bother to describe it – but we can say that the group wisely hooked up with Deodato, who produced, mixed, and even played ...

De-Lite, 1974. Very Good+ Gatefold ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
It's the mid 70s, and Kool & Co not only keep the funky groove up, but also expand their style into a moogy style that adds a nice dimension of spacey soul to their rich palette of funk. The funkier cuts – like "Street Corner Symphony" and "Rhyme Tyme People" – ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

De-Lite, Early 70s. Near Mint- Gatefold ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Fantastic live stuff from the classic early period of Kool & the Gang! The set swings mightily with a sound that's hardly matched on some of their studio albums, and the band proves that their tightness isn't just a batch of studio tricks as they blow away the crowd at the Sex Machine night ...

De-Lite/Universal (Japan), 1976. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
Amazing work from Kool & The Gang – from a period when they were pushing past their tight early funky sound, into a super-dope mix of electronics and spacey jamming that is still pretty darn revolutionary today! Although you might think the album would be a bit disco by the date, it's ... (Soul) read more CD

The only full album ever cut by Benny Troy – a blue-eyed soul talent who's right at home in the Philly club setting of the album! Sure, Benny looks a bit cheesy on the cover – but the set's a great example of the way that the Philly scene was able to take an older singer and find a new ... (Soul) read more CD
