Music For A New Society ... LP 
Ze/Island (UK), 1982. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
Contortions/
Ze/P-Vine (Japan), 1979. New Copy ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A punky funky no wave classic from James White – working here under the name of The Contortions, in a manner that's very similar to his Off White album! The tunes dip, turn, and kind of groove with a mad sort of art school energy – shifting easily between fast and frenetic playing, and ... (Rock) read more CD
(Includes bonus tracks!)
Cristina —
Sleep It Off (with bonus tracks) ... CD Ze/Rubellan, 1984. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
The second and final chapter in the career of Cristina – the female singer who was a key link in the New York club scene between Grace Jones and Madonna! Like the former, Cristina was not a singer at heart – but rose into the mainstream with a quirky ear for a tune and model-like looks ... (Soul) read more CD
Lizzy Mercier Descloux —
Fire/Ze, 1979. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
A seminal Ze Records groover from Lizzy Mercier Descloux – a bit disco, a bit post-punk, with some nice European touches! "Fire" is a chanted little track that merges new wave and disco – remaking the Arthur Brown classic in a style that's completely unlike the original, and ... (Soul) read more 12-inch, Vinyl record
Lizzy Mercier Descloux —
Mambo Nassau (with bonus tracks) ... CD Ze/Light In The Attic, 1980. Used ... Out Of Stock
A really funked-up batch of dancefloor tunes – produced with a uniquely cross-cultural approach! Ze Records diva Lizzy Mercier Descloux works here with influential post-disco, post-punk producer Steve Stanely – on a set of tunes cut in Nassau, with some great backing by a combo that ...

Lizzy Mercier Descloux —
Press Color ... LP Ze, 1979. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
A brilliant and overlooked gem from the glorious post-disco years of the New York scene – the first album recorded by Lizzy Mercier Descloux, a French native who'd relocated to America in the late 70s, and soaked up a huge array of influences from the scene at the time! The album's a really ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Kid Creole & The Coconuts —
I'm A Wonderful Thing, Baby/
Ze/Island (UK), 1982. Very Good+ (pic cover)... Out Of Stock
The madness of Kid's a bit suppressed in this single, but in its place is some very soulful grooving – which makes it no surprise that "I'm A Wonderful Thing" became one of the group's bigger dancefloor tracks of the early 80s. (Funky 45's) 7-inch, Vinyl record
Kid Creole & The Coconuts —
Stool Pigeon/Ze/Island (UK), 1982. Very Good+ 2 X 7" (pic cover)... Out Of Stock
One of Kid Creole's greatest – a track that bounces along with a mad bassline, grooving in a campy 20's sort of way, but with this old school beat that really makes the cut kick. Plus a nice remix of In The Jungle and 2 live tracks round out this double 7 inch set. (Funky 45's) 7-inch, Vinyl record
Sire/Ze, 1982. Near Mint- ... $6.99 9.99
Ha! This one really takes us back! The set was a massive breakthrough for August Darnell – one of his biggest hits since his day with Dr Buzzard's Original Savannah Band, with an equally appealing approach to the dancefloor. Tracks mix early 80s New York club styles with Darnell's mad ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Includes the printed inner sleeve.)
Ze/Iconoclassic, 1984. New Copy ... $14.99 17.99
A well-circulated solo set from Junie Morrison – by now working very far from the P-Funk empire, and with a groove that fits in nicely with the sound of 80s soul! The album's heavy on basslines, beats, and keyboards – very much an 80s funk evolution from Junie's 70s roots – with ... (Soul) read more CD
Suicide —
Alan Vega/Ze (UK), 1980. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
A second album of sorts from Suicide – but one that came out a long four years after their seminal debut, at a time when all of the groups that Suicide had influenced had grown up on their own to fill up the underground! Yet the duo of Martin Rev and Alan Vega are still way ahead of the pack ... (Rock) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(US Antilles promo pressing. Cover has faint ring wear, a tiny bit of staining on the top seam, and a small sticker.)
Waitresses —
Wasn't Tomorrow Wonderful ... LP Ze, 1982. Very Good ... Out Of Stock
Cool quirky post-punk work from The Waitresses – a group who maybe were never as big as Blondie or Romeo Void, but shared a very similar space at the time! This album's best known for the classic "I Know What Boys Want" – a naughty little number that got plenty of dancefloor ... (Rock) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Was Not Was —
Tell Me That I'm Dreaming (traditional remixed version, souped-up version)/Ze/Island, 1982. Near Mint- (pic cover)... Out Of Stock
Before Don Was went on to become a huge hit making producer, he cut a number of tasty post disco tracks, like these two excellent Danceteria style numbers, all three versions with an irresistable Lower East Side 80s groove! (Soul) 12-inch, Vinyl record

Was (Not Was) ... LP Island/Ze, 1981. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
A classic early album for Ze Records, like other sets on Ze at the time a brilliant blend of funk, punk, rock, and soul – done with a post-P Funk approach to the grooves that puts plenty of bass on the bottoms, and which also flows lots of other interesting instrumentation into the grooves to ...

James White & The Blacks —
Off White ... LP Ze, 1979. Very Good+ ... Out Of Stock
Frenetic and energetic work from James White and the Blacks – a seminal album in the post-punk New York scene, and one of the fiercest documents of the no wave sound!
