Athens Of The North (UK), Late 70s/Early 80s. New Copy ... $13.99 16.99
Fantastic funky soul from a very mysterious figure – Georgia's Nathan Bartell, a singer with a deep soul style, and an under-exposed legacy that mostly involves a few indie label singles, and countless work in the smaller clubs of his state! The blend of music here is a bit different than ... (Soul) read more CD

Billy Bruner ... CD Athens Of The North (UK), Early 80s. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
Billy Bruner looks nice and relaxed on the cover – and his grooves are nice and relaxed, too – but maybe that's just how they make their music in Billy's hometown of Tulsa! The set's got a sweet blend of 80s soul and mellow boogie – never too over the top, and handled with a nice ... (Soul) read more CD
Athens Of The North (UK), 2019. New Copy ... $7.99
A very cool collaboration between Greg Foat and James Thorpe – a set that's billed more as a sound library session than some of Foat's other jazz projects – even though the sound is equally appealing if you love those records too! The set is self-described as "futuristic analogue ... (Jazz) read more CD
Athens Of The North (UK), 2021. New Copy ... $12.99 16.99
A solo album from Warren Hampshire, recorded right around the same time as his collaborations with Greg Foat, but done with a very different vibe! The set's got a nicely pastoral approach – slow building sounds that are somewhere between spiritual and meditative modes, with work from ... (Jazz) read more CD

Honeybear ... LP Athens Of The North (UK), 2018. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
The team of Warren Hampshire and Greg Foat have already given us some amazing music on record – but this strangely-titled set may well be their crowning achievement so far! The set's got kind of a creepy look and feel – and a layout that replicates some of the more sophisticated UK ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Athens Of The North (UK), 2019. New Copy ... $9.99
The duo of Warren Hampshire and Greg Foat keep on getting more and more interesting as the years go on – to a point where they seem to be carving out a really special place in music that might well be a genre of their own! The music here represents a wonderful evolution of their skills ... (Jazz) read more CD
Athens Of The North (UK), 2020. New Copy ... $8.99
Sweet grooves from Linkwood – served up in the kind of keyboard-heavy style of his collaboration with Greg Foat, but even more upbeat and 80s-styled overall! The tunes here really recall the best sound of 80s electro soul – all instrumental, with a really classic vibe to the keyboard ... (New Grooves) read more CD

Mono ... LP Athens Of The North (UK), 2021. New Copy ... $26.99 32.99
"Mono" might seem to be a strange word to use in relation to the music of Linkwood – as his sets always have a very spacious, stretched-out sort of sound – one that's hardly the stuff of a one-channel recording! Yet here, Linkwood strips things down in a nice way – ... (New Grooves) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Eugene Perkins/Taifa/Athens Of The North (UK), 1975. Used ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A totally righteous little record – originally put together in support of a local stage production in mid-70s Chicago, but a set that's come to gain some global funky fame over the years! The record mixes together spoken bits, sung vocals, and some very cool instrumentation that includes ... (Soul) read more CD

Sittin On It ... CD Tempus/Athens Of The North (UK), 1981. New Copy ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A sweet bit of funky soul from the Florida scene in the early 80s – a completely charming modern soul effort that's quite different than the bigger Miami hits of the decade before! These guys have a sense of integrity that comes through in their look on the cover – unassuming, and very ... (Soul) read more CD
Symplex/Athens Of The North (UK), 1979. New Copy (reissue)... $24.99 26.99
A rare set issued on a tiny label from Arkansas – but a set that's got all the charm, poise, and sparkle of some of the best deep soul on late 70s Columbia Records! Stuckey's got a touch of southern soul in his voice, with a sweet cracking sound – and that honest approach is mixed with ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

For The Love Of You – A Selection Of Soulful Lovers Rock Covers ... LP Athens Of The North (UK), Late 70s/Early 80s. New Copy 2LP Gatefold ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A really fantastic idea for a compilation – a set that brings together obscure covers of funk and soul tunes – mostly from the late 70s/early 80s generation, and mostly in a laidback, soul-stepping style! If you're a lover of rare groove, you'll recognize plenty of the songs, but not ... (Funky Compilations) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Athens Of The North (UK), Late 60s/Early 70s. New Copy ... $12.99 14.99
Igloo Records was a teeny tiny label on the LA scene of the early 70s – but all of its releases turned out to be killers – most handled by the hip-looking Leon Gardner on the cover! The music is often heavy with the kind of deep funk you'd expect from rare singles at the time – ... (Funky Compilations) read more CD
