Joey – Monk – Live ... CD 
Motema, 2017. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
The best sort of Thelonious Monk set in our opinion – the kind of record that draws heavily from the legacy of the master, but also delivers something completely new and fresh! Let's face it, Monk would wince at the idea of folks just copying his style and ideas – and Joey Alexander ... (Jazz) read more CD
Omer Avital —

Motema, 2008. Used 2CDs ... $11.99
A beautiful tribute to the greatness of Leon Thomas – put together by one of the few cats who could get it right! Given that Babatunde Lea's other music already takes us back to the days when Thomas sang with Pharoah Sanders – his leadership on a date like this is a natural – as ... (Jazz) read more CD
Motema, 2018. New Copy ... $11.99 14.99
The first full album from Deva Mahal – a relatively young singer, but one who comes across with a power that makes us think that she's been recording for years!

Beyond Now ... CD Motema, 2016. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
Reedman Donny McCaslin's been making records for many years now – but he also seems to have gotten a new sort of inspiration from his work with David Bowie on his final recording – at a level that really seems to influence his sound here!

Charnett Moffett —
Music From Our Soul ... CD Motema, 2017. New Copy ... Temporarily Out Of Stock

Gregory Porter —
Be Good ... CD Motema, 2012. Used ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Wonderful work from Gregory Porter – easily one of the best new jazz singers to emerge in the past decade or so, and one whose approach is soulful enough to rival the greats of the 70s!
