Hi Records/Ultra Vybe (Japan), Late 1960s. New Copy ... $11.99 16.99

An excellent compilation of raw Memphis soul – from one of the rarest singers on the famous Hi Records label!

Don Bryant — Hi Records Masters ... CD

Hi Records (UK), 1960s. New Copy ... Out Of Stock

Hard and heavy Memphis soul from Don Bryant – a great singer who recorded for Hi Records in its early years, but who was never as well-remembered as Al Green or Ann Peebles, because the label wasn't cutting full LPs on many of its soul acts in the 60s. Don's got a rough style that's part ... (Soul) read more CD

Otis Clay — Otis Clay – Hi Records Singles Collection ... CD

Hi Records/Ultra Vybe (Japan), Mid 1970s. New Copy ... $11.99 16.99

A great slice of work from Chicago soul singer Otis Clay – a collection of his 70s singles for the Hi Records label – a number of which never appeared on his albums at the time! Clay's work was some of the best male soul on the label next to Al Green – and he received a similar ... (Soul) read more CD

Otis Clay — Trying To Live My Life Without You ... LP

Hi Records, 1972. New Copy (reissue)... Temporarily Out Of Stock

Quite possibly the most successful record Otis Clay ever cut – and a wonderful little set that recasts his bluesy Chicago vocals with a sweeter Memphis soul approach! Willie Mitchell is very firmly in the house for the record – and the approach he uses here with Otis is similar to that ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Al Green — Al Green Gets Next To You ... CD

Hi Records/Right Stuff, 1971. Used ... Out Of Stock

Al Green's first major album, and a killer batch of Memphis soul tracks with a sound that's a bit rawer than later years. The formula for the hits is firmly in place – and Al's beautiful voice is swept up wonderfully in very sympathetic production by the great Willie Mitchell. Although ... (Soul) read more CD

Al Green — Al Green Is Love ... CD

Hi Records/Fat Possum, 1975. New Copy ... $11.99 15.99

Heavenly soul doesn't get any more heavenly than this! Al Green's at the height of his powers here – working in that wonderfully smooth, wonderfully warm style that made his early 70s material so wonderful! This album's maybe slightly less iconic than some of Green's other titles for Hi ... (Soul) read more CD

Al Green — Belle Album (expanded & remastered) ... CD

Hi Records/Right Stuff, 1977. Used ... Out Of Stock

Al takes over the whole deal with this one – as the record features him writing, producing, arranging, and even playing lead guitar – stepping out from under the protective wing of Willie Mitchell, and doing a surprisingly great job overall! Al does get a bit of help in the studio ... (Soul) read more CD

Al Green — Call Me ... LP

Hi Records, 1973. Very Good+ ... Out Of Stock

Al Green, 1973 – what could be better?

Al Green — Livin For You ... CD

Hi Records/Fat Possum, 1973. New Copy ... $6.99 15.98

Hard to go wrong with Al Green at this point – 1973, when the mighty one was at the height of his secular soul powers – and when the sweetly compressed production style of Willie Mitchell just couldn't miss! There's a homey, earthy feel to the record that's really great – a sound ... (Soul) read more CD

A selection of earlier Al Green numbers issued originally at the end of the 70s – with new mixing by Willie Mitchell, who'd produced all the original sides.

Hi Records (UK), 1975/1978. Used ... Out Of Stock

We never been huge fans of Syl's stuff for Hi – mostly because we prefer his harder rawer stuff from his Twinight years – but you can't argue with the price of this nice 2-in-1 set that combines 2 of Syl's albums from the mid 70s.

Less funk than the title might imply, but still plenty darn great – thanks to a strong helping of work from Ann Peebles legendary years at Hi Records!

A great litle early album from Ann Peebles – rawer than most of her more familiar stuff, with a gutbuckety soul quality that really keeps things fresh!

Great work from OV Wright – one of the few singers who was still strongly carrying the Hi Records torch at the end of the 70s!
