Joe Albany & Niels Henning Orsted Pedersen —
Two's Company ... LP 
Inner City, 1974. Near Mint- ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Wonderfully intimate piano from Joe Albany – with only the bass of Niels Henning Orsted Pedersen for accompaniment! (Jazz) LP, Vinyl record album
(Danish Steeple Chase pressing.)
Art Ensemble Of Chicago —
Certain Blacks (Inner City) ... LP America/Inner City, 1970. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
One of our favorite albums ever by the Art Ensemble of Chicago – a key French session that captures the group at the height of their powers! The centerpiece of the album is the extended track "Certain Blacks (Do What They Wanna)" – done in a beautiful mix of politics and free ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Inner City/P-Vine (Japan), 1985. New Copy ... $28.99
An auspicious name, but an intimate little record – one served up by the vocal duo of Wendy Simon and Eric Shaw – in a mode that's a fair bit like work from Jackie & Roy, but a bit more bop-oriented as well! The pair do a great job of riffing together on the upbeat numbers – ... (Vocalists) read more CD
(Part of the "Lounge At Break Dawn" series!)
Inner City, 1981. Very Good+ ... $6.99
One of the most ambitious albums we've ever seen from Carlos Franzetti – a set that mixes his own keyboard-driven fusion with some surprising larger arrangements! Carlos starts the set out slow – singing a haunting version of the title track – then really takes off with some ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Cover has light wear.)
David Friesen —
Star Dance ... LP Inner City, 1976. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
One of the more compelling sessions from the left side of the Inner City jazz label of the 70s – work that's partly fusion, but with plenty of aspects that push it far from the mainstream! Leader David Friesen plays acoustic bass on the set, but he's in a group with John Stowell on electric ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Blue label pressing. Cover has some ring and edge wear and small seam splits.)
Inner City, 1977. Very Good+ 2LP Gatefold ... $14.99
One of the most hard-burning Johnny Griffin records of the 70s – a cooking live se recorded in Tokyo, with energy that's much more freewheeling and open than his studio records of the time! The tracks are all quite long, and move with a quickly-expressive quality that's totally great – ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(ring and edge wear.)
Elmo Hope —
Last Sessions Volume 2 ... LP Inner City, 1966. Very Good+ ... $11.99
The last work ever recorded by pianist Elmo Hope – one of the most brilliant modernist talents of his generation, right up there with Monk and Herbie Nichols for sheer inventiveness! The material here shows Hope still burning brightly in the last years of his life – hitting the keys of ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Mid 70s issue. Cover has a cut corner.)
Inner City, 1981. Very Good- ... $9.99
A wonderfully moody album from Abbey Lincoln – one that's a bit more laidback than some of her other efforts, but no less soulful! There's kind of a broken, jagged sound to the record – a late nite vibe that's blue and melancholy, and which gets some great support from the tenor sax of ... (Vocalists) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Cover has edge wear and splitting. NOTE: Vinyl has an unplayble mark on "Throw It Away".)
Jackie McLean —
Live At Montmartre (Inner City) ... LP Steeplechase/Inner City, 1972. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
Jackie McLean opens it up at Cafe Montmartre in Copenhagen – blowing in the long, open-ended style usually associated with live dates from the club! The format here is similar to the better-known Montmartre recordings by Dexter Gordon and Johnny Griffin – strong rhythms from a trio ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(US pressing. Cover has a cut corner and some surface wear.)
Jackie McLean & Gary Bartz —
Ode To Super ... LP Inner City, 1973. Near Mint- ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A great meeting of these two alto giants – and a wonderfully soulful session that matches Gary Bartz's own great work from the same time! The overall feel of the session is quite spiritual – as Bartz and McLean seem to egg each other on, into far-reaching lines and freespirited grooves ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(US pressing. Cover has a cutout on the opening.)
Inner City/Dynamite Cuts (UK), 1977. New Copy (pic cover)... $18.99
Two rare funky gems from this obscure 70s group! "The Perfect Circle" is a fantastic theme song for the group – hard, full, funky, and plenty darn righteous – a great indie group take on some of the more polished funk ensembles of the time! "Hands Of Time" has ... (Funky 45's) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Sun Ra —
Cosmos ... LP Inner City, 1977. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
One of the best-remembered Sun Ra albums from the 70s – a really cool little session that features Ra playing the unusual "rocksichord" all the way through! The instrument's a very weird one – kind of like a messed-up electric piano, with lots of cool broken notes and a weird ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
George Semper & Others —
Inner City Review ... LP Inner City/ARC (UK), Early 70s. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
Rare west coast funk, soul, and funky soul – all from the vaults of George Semper – an artist that most folks know from a classic organ jazz record in the 60s, but also a backroom figure behind a range of great soul records on the Cali scene of the 70s! This set is a rare collection of ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Steeplechase/Inner City, 1977. Very Good+ ... $14.99
A gem of a record – the kind of overlooked 70s session we really treasure! Reed player Frank Strozier was one of the all-time under-discovered greats – and this set reunites him with his old Memphis partner/MJT+3 bandmate, Harold Mabern – a perfect pairing for Strozier's warm and ...

(Cover has a cut corner.)
Toots Thielemans —
Toots Thielemans Live ... LP Inner City, 1982. Very Good+ ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A wonderful live date from the legendary Toots Thielemans – and one that's got some especially nice electric piano interplay with his famous guitar and harmonica! There's a bit more of an edge to this record than some of Toots' more polished outings for bigger labels – and we really ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Kev Beadle Presents The Best Of Inner City Records ... CD Inner City/BBE (UK), Late 70s/Early 80s. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
An overdue look at the great range of sounds that came from Inner City Records at the end of the 70s – a hip American indie with a strong specialty in soulful fusion, hip vocalists, and a range of other great styles too – all brought together here by London DJ Kev Beadle! Inner City's ... (Funky Compilations) read more CD
