A nice little bit of exotica – with a dreamy island feel that mixes organ, electric guitar, vibes, flutes, and percussion – in a groove that's almost like that of a surf combo gone easy, as you might guess from the name of the group. There's no real standouts here, but Joe Cain ... (Now Sound) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Stone Latin Soul – from one of the greatest groups of the genre! In the late 60s, New York was on top of the Latin Soul sound – blending together bits from Puerto Rican and African-American roots to come up with a whole new sound. But by the time of the early 70s, LA had taken over ... (Latin) read moreCD
A Latin funk monster! El Chicano took this tune from Gerald Wilson and turned it into a groover that would forever define the sound of west coast Latin! The cut's got a slow romping groove – very spaced out, with nice organ on the beat, and a trippy chromatic guitar riffing away over the ... (Funky 45's) read more7-inch, Vinyl record

Curtain Time ... CD Kapp (Japan), Early 1960s. Used ...
Out Of Stock
Early magic from one of the greatest pop voices of the 60s – a singer that we'd rank right up there with Scott Walker for sheer godlike genius!

Carmen McRae's book of ballads is a great set of standards – performed by a core trio that features Don Abney on piano, over larger backings by Frank Hunter! The set's a treasure from Carmen's early years – and is filled with dusky renditions of tunes that are familiar, but which have ... (Vocalists) read moreCD
A great debut album from David McWilliams – a hip UK singer who started out in more folksy territory, but uses larger arrangements here – almost in a Scott Walker sort of mode! (Rock) LP, Vinyl record album

Sublime work from Ruby & The Romantics – a completely unique vocal group that took the one girl/four boys approach to a whole new level!

A very cool record, and one that's got a very hip approach to jazz – most likely by some top-shelf players, but working here under a fake name to cash in on the beatnik craze! The album promises a "real" album of beat jazz and poetry – recorded in an "on location" ... (Jazz) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
