✨✧ Maki AsakawaMaki Asakawa ... LP
Honest Jons (UK), Late 60s/Early 70s. New Copy 2LP Gatefold ... Out Of Stock
Haunting music from Japanese singer Maki Asakawa – every bit as smoky and soulful as you might guess from her image on the cover! These tracks are mostly sung in Japanese, but draw a very strong inspiration from American torch sounds of the 40s and 50s – a moody, late nite approach ...

✨✧ Calvin Bubbles CameronWareika Hill Sounds ... LP
Honest Jons (UK), 2007. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
Dynamite rootsy vibes from Wareika Hill, laid down by trombonist Calvin Bubbles Cameron.

Beautiful sounds from Hypnotic Brass Ensemble – a group who've matured tremendously in the time that they've been giving us music – and who almost seem ready here to take on the legacy of their musical father – the late Kelan Phil Cohran!

✨✧ Foster ManganyiNdzi Teke Riendzo No 1 ... LP
Honest Jons (UK), 2008. Near Mint- 2LP ... Out Of Stock
Modern South African music from Foster Manganyi – really unique music a bit of breezy melodicism, thanks to Foster Manganyi's somewhat gruff, wholly (and holy...he's a pastor) vocals backed by sweeter female back up – over a hypnotic swirl of synthesizer, marimba, whistling and lean ...

Honest Jons (UK), 2024. New Copy 2LP Gatefold ... Out Of Stock
A stunning set of sounds from the farther reaches of Ecuador – a province where ancient musical elements come together with more localized expressions – all at a level that makes the work here a real lost link in Afro-Caribbean cultures!

An incredible collection from Honest Jons – and like some of the rest of their best, music we never would have heard otherwise!
