Art Blakey & Freddie Hubbard —
Feel The Wind ... LP 
Timeless/Tidal Waves, 1989. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
Freddie Hubbard is reunited with drummer Art Blakey – in a sweet little set that recalls the power of the Jazz Messengers during the stretch when Hubbard was with the group! Both players are in fine form – with Hubbard blowing shimmering trumpet lines over Blakey's full-on style of ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
George Coleman —
Amsterdam After Dark (180 gram pressing) ... LP Timeless/Tidal Waves, 1978. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
One of the greatest albums as a leader from tenorist George Coleman – an artist who we feel often never gave us enough with himself in the lead as well! George brings in that great edge he used on earlier sessions with other leaders, while still also really establishing himself as one of the ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Larry Douglas Alltet —
Dedications (180 gram pressing) ... LP Swajola/Tidal Waves, 1984. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
A rare bit of indie jazz from the Bay Area scene of the 80s – but put together with a groove that's much more 70s overall! The group's headed by trumpeter Larry Douglas, and has a soaring, soulful groove that definitely owes a lot to the spiritual sound on labels like Strata East or Black ...

(180 gram pressing – with obi. Limited to 500 copies!)
Gallo/Tidal Waves, 1977. New Copy (reissue)... $13.99 26.99
A beautiful 70s album from Harari – a South African group who already had a long legacy in music before this set, and who really seem to come together with a style that's even more sophisticated than some of their previous albums! The cover might make the record look a bit disco, but there's ... (Global Grooves) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Limited edition of 500!)
Rebirth/Tidal Waves, 1985. New Copy (reissue)... $13.99 26.99
Post-Tribe Records work from Detroit reedman Wendell Harrison – a set that was issued on his own Wenha label, and which is kind of an update of an older soul jazz mode! There's a fair bit of electricity in the instrumentation – guitar from Larry Barris, and keyboards from Harold ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Limited edition of 500!)
Rebirth/Tidal Waves, 1988. New Copy (reissue)... $13.99 22.99
Later work from saxophonist Wendell Harrison – cut for his own Rebirth label in the years after his better-known work on Tribe! The sound here is quite different than the early days – still quite soulful, but in a more mainstream electric mode – one that has Wendell's tenor and ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Wenha/Tidal Waves, 1990. New Copy (reissue)... $13.99 26.99
A beautiful return to acoustic jazz for Wendell Harrison – after a string of more electrified albums in the 80s! Wendell's working here on tenor sax and clarinet – the latter of which he plays in these spiraling long lines that use the instrument in a searching, soprano sax-like manner ...

Fuzzy Haskins —
Radio Active (180 gram white vinyl pressing) ... LP Westbound/Tidal Waves, 1978. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
A mighty nice solo project from Fuzzy Haskins – one of the many side projects from the P-Funk side of the universe, from a time when it seemed like the influence of George Clinton knew no bounds! As with Bootsy Collins before him, Haskins steps away from ensemble for some great time of his ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Heart Soul & Inspiration —
Heart Soul & Inspiration ... LP Viscojon/Tidal Waves, 1974. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
A great indie soul set from the west coast scene – one that's got a lot more richness than you might expect from the cover, and an approach that's a lot like a stripped-down take on the territory of Barry White! There's definitely a few of Barry's songs on here, mixed with some other funky ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
John Hicks —
I'll Give You Something To Remember Me By (180 gram pressing) ... LP Limetree/Tidal Waves, 1988. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
John Hicks works in some really wonderful company here – a trio with bassist Curtis Lundy and drummer Idris Muhammad – both of whom really add a lot to the date! We're always big fans of Lundy's sound on bass – and his approach here has the same warm-rolling quality you'd find in ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Also available I'll Give You Something To Remember Me By ... LP 11.99
Timeless/Tidal Waves, 1990. New Copy 2LP (reissue)... $16.99 35.98
The title alone is more than enough to win us over here – as it's a great Duke Pearson composition that turns out to be a wonderful showcase for the most lyrical modes of pianist John Hicks! That tune's the leadoff, and it really sets the tone for the record – a gently soulful set that ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(First time on vinyl – limited edition of 1000!)
William Odell Hughes with Wendell Harrison —
Cruisin (180 gram pressing) ... LP Wenha/Tidal Waves, 1981. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
A really fantastic soul record from the post-Motown underground in Detroit – and one that also has ties to the Tribe Records scene of the 70s! William Odell Hughes is a great soul singer, with an ability to stretch out on a long, sensual line – a quality that's a bit in the territory ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Handshake/Tidal Waves, 1982. New Copy (reissue)... $23.99 26.99
A wonderful set of modern soul – and one of the few excellent albums on the Handshake label! Karin's a singer we know nothing about, but she's got a great approach for this boogie-styled set – one that's upfront and belting on the more uptempo numbers, but also wonderfully soulful on ...

(Limited to 500 copies.)
Olive Branch/Tidal Waves, 1985. New Copy (reissue)... $14.99 30.99
Great 80s work from guitarist Calvin Keys – material that's different than his earlier sides for the Black Jazz label – and which shows Calvin really changing up his sound for the following decade! There's a slightly more inside feel to the recording, but the set's still dripping with ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Riza/Tidal Waves, 1985. New Copy (reissue)... $13.99 26.99
An obscure set from Azar Lawrence – self-produced and self-arranged, in a smooth modern soul mode that's kind of an 80s extension of his work in the 70s for Prestige. There's a definite R&B groove on most tracks, and vocalist Coco Evans sings on 2 of the album's 8 tracks – and an ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(180 gram pressing – with obi and insert.)
Kilmarnock/Tidal Waves, 1972. New Copy (reissue)... $25.99 28.99
One of the coolest records ever issued on Galt MacDermot's legendary Kilmarnock label – a selection of songs and poems by Harlem school children, set to music by Galt, and sung by vocalist Angela Ortega! Given that Galt's handling the music, you can bet that there's plenty of nicely funky ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Mixed Bag —
Mixed Bag's First Album ... LP Tribe/Tidal Waves, 1976. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
One of the most obscure albums on the Tribe Records label from the 70s – and one of the greatest too! The Mixed Bag were a group that featured keyboardist Eddie Russ and reed player Larry Nozero – both of whom worked together beautifully on Russ' classic first album for the Jazz ...

Tidal Waves, 1987. New Copy ... $12.99 26.99
A soul record, but one with a fair bit of "something else" going on as well – and a set that was originally only issued on cassette, which might be why it was missed the first time around! Antonio L Newton, aka Tony Newton, has a long legacy in soul music – including work ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Limited edition of 500!)
Blue Pie/Tidal Waves, 1977. New Copy (reissue)... $13.99 22.99
A record with a hypnotic image on the cover, and a very hypnotic sound within – all sorts of great guitar lines wrapped around basslines and percussion, percolating in a lean take on highlife – that earlier version of the material, before things got a bit more cleaned up and ...

(First ever vinyl reissue!)
Pharoah Sanders —
Moon Child ... LP Timeless/Tidal Waves, 1989. Sealed ... Out Of Stock
Beautiful late 80s work from Pharoah – a wonderfully uncomplicated session that still has a great degree of soul! The album was recorded in Paris, with a quintet that includes William Henderson on acoustic piano, Stafford James on bass, Eddie Moore on drums, and Cheikh Tidiane Fale on ...

Teleclere —
Affection/Tele Music/Tidal Waves, 1983. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
Seattle soul combo Teleclere have a mighty lean look on the cover – and the sound within is nice and lean too – served up from that moment when larger funk ensembles had been condensed into much smaller groups, thanks to all the right use of drum machines, keyboards, and electronics! ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Tidal Waves, 1976. New Copy (reissue)... $13.99 28.99
Mad funky genius from Ghanian singer Pat Thomas – an artist who first rose to fame in the group of Ebo Taylor, and who's maybe even more fantastic here in the spotlight in the lead! The cover of the album maybe looks a bit more like a 60s photograph than the 70s stretch in which it was ... (Global Grooves) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Limited edition of 500!)
Average/Tidal Waves, 1988. New Copy (reissue)... $13.99 22.99
One of the key hybrids of reggae roots and West African grooves on the Nigerian scene of the 80s – a set that's maybe one of the strongest ever from Maxwell Udoh, and one that also has a righteous way of reaching across the Atlantic to unite and embrace two different musical styles! The ... (Global Grooves) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Timeless/Tidal Waves, 1972. New Copy (reissue)... $13.99 22.99
Late life genius from the mighty Ben Webster – a record that captures him in a live setting, and features much longer solo space than some of his other European dates of the time, which sometimes compact his work into shorter moments! The great pianist Tete Montoliu is working here on piano ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Wildfire/Tidal Waves, 1980. New Copy (reissue)... $13.99 28.99
A very soulful group from the Caribbean scene at the start of the 80s – one who work with some of the tropical soul of their contemporaries, but who also seem to echo some of the West African modes of the psych rock era on the mellower cuts too – a really unusual blend that definitely ...
