An excellent non-US album from Stan Getz – and a real rarity too!

Out Of Season (UK pressing) ... CD Go Beat/Polydor (UK), 2002. Used ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Dark work from Beth Gibbons – known to most as the voice of Portishead, but sounding amazing here on this album of her own! The record certainly has traces of the Portishead work from earlier years – but there's also a folksy sound to it, conjuring up images of a dark past England, ... (New Grooves) read more CD

Christmas Wonderland ... CD Polydor/Jazzclub (Germany), Late 70s. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
Christmas magic from German reedman Max Greger – served up in a richly sentimental mode that's just right for the Holiday – yet with a few groovy touches too! Most tracks have the sparkling polish you'd guess from Greger's image on the cover – rooted in jazz, but given lots of ... read more CD

An amazing album of raw power from Jimi Hendrix – recorded on New Years Eve 1969, right as the 60s became the 70s – with a stunning sound that certainly presages the hard rock decade to come!

Polydor (UK), 1973. Near Mint- ... $19.99
One of the few albums issued by the great Mike Hugg – more of a behind the scenes figure at the dawn of the 70s UK scene! Mike plays keyboards and moog, in addition to singing lead – and Tony Rivers provides some nice backing harmonies. (Rock) LP, Vinyl record album
Hyldon —
Na Rua, Na Chuva, Na Fazenda (180 gram presssing) ... LP Polydor/Polysom (Brazil), 1975. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
Fantastic work by this underdiscovered Brazilian talent! Hyldon was part of the 70s Brazilian soul and funk generation that included Tim Maia, Cassiano, and Toni Tornado – but he'd also absorbed a lot of the singer/songwriter influences of Caetano Veloso, who's laidback mid 70s style will ...

Polydor, 1978. Very Good+ ... $9.99
A seminal session from 70s French synth maestro Jean-Michel Jarre – his 8-part "Equinoxe" suite, a great bit of electronics that was almost France's answer to Kraftwerk at the time! Jarre's style is a bit warmer and more focused on the melody – and the range of keyboards and ... (Rock) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Polydor/Sam Records (France), Mid 60s. New Copy (reissue)... About April 16, 2021
An amazing record that predates many ideas in soul jazz by a decade! Drummer Ron Jefferson was a lesser-known member of the LA bebop scene of the late 50s and early 60s, but by the time he cut this album for French Polygram in the mid 60s, he'd been to Africa, and had discovered a whole new set of ...
