Disques Debs/Tidal Waves, 1974. New Copy (reissue)... $23.99 29.98
The fantastic first album from Exile One – a group who recorded more mainstream work in Paris later in their career – but who really sound fierce and funky here right at the start! The sound is lean, stripped-down, and a lot more aimed towards American soul than you'd guess from their ... (Global Grooves) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Ceasar Frazier —
Hail Ceasar! ... LP Eastbound/Tidal Waves, 1972. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
A monster bit of funky jazz – filled with long tracks that all jam mightily, all at a level that matches or tops the best work coming out of Prestige or Blue Note Records at the time! The set is one of the rare few on the Eastbound jazz subsidiary of Detroit soul powerhouse Westbound Records ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Funkproof (George Semper) —
Revival (180 gram pressing) ... LP Tidal Waves, 1972. New Copy (reissue)... Temporarily Out Of Stock
The never-issued album from Funkproof – an early 70s Cali funk combo headed up by Hammond maestro George Semper! Semper had his hand in plenty of great projects during the late 60s and early 70s, and Funkproof is definitely one of those groups – working here with a hard-burning quality ...

Wenha/Tidal Waves, 1980. New Copy (reissue)... $23.99 26.98
Pretty great stuff – even though Wendall Harrison has strayed far from the Tribe Records sound of his earlier years! The record takes the spiritual post-Coltrane jazz of Harrison's earlier days, and infuses it with a smooth fusion approach that's clearly an attempt to reach a wider audience ...

Aware/Tidal Waves, 1973. New Copy (reissue)... $23.99 24.98
If you only know Loleatta Holloway as a disco singer, you'll be really amazed at this debut album from 1973 – because Loleatta emerges first as deep soul singer with a strong southern vibe – very much in the mode the Atlanta scene did best, before picking up the pace a bit more as the ...

Aware/Tidal Waves, 1973. New Copy (reissue)... About November 15, 2019
Mad funky soul from King Hannibal – a down and dirty singer from the Atlanta scene of the 70s! The notes on the back say "He's black, he's proud, he's arrogant – the combination is powerful" – and we've gotta say that we agree with that assessment, because King really ...

Tidal Waves, 1978. New Copy (reissue)... $23.99 26.99
An obscure funky fusion album from bassist Tony Newton – with a wild look that grabs you instantly! Tony plays this weird double-bass, and he's pictured with the instrument on the cover – looking like some super-heavy righteous dude that escaped from The Headhunters. The record ...

Ofege —
Higher Plane Breeze (brown vinyl pressing) ... LP Tidal Waves, 1977. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
Excellent work from Ofege – a record that has this legendary 70s group getting a bit tighter and more compressed in their sound, but never with a way that's slick or commercial at all! Instead, the vocals are folded back nicely on themselves – with these really great qualities that ... (Global Grooves) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Ofege —
Last Of The Origins (2018 Black Friday Release) ... LP Tidal Waves, 1976. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
The rare second album from Ofege – an ultra-hip Nigerian group from the 70s, and one who was as influenced by the fuzzier sound of American rock as they were by the growing styles of Afro Funk on the Lagos scene! Ofege were younger than most of their contemporaries – and work here with ... (Global Grooves) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Tidal Waves, 1972. New Copy (reissue)... $23.99 26.99
A really unique album from Mack Porter – a singer born in Ghana, but working here on the Swiss scene, where he'd landed after late 60s work in other European cities! The music is this very unusual hybrid of rock and soul, with a mixture of acoustic elements and larger orchestrations – ... (Global Grooves) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Purple Image —
Purple Image ... LP Tidal Waves, 1970. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
A key album in the post-Hendrix tradition of funky black rock – and the only album ever recorded by Cleveland's Purple Image! The approach here follows nicely in the same territory worked by Funkadelic and Fugi in the early days – a heady, fuzzed-up blend of trippy guitars, heavy ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Real ShooBeeDoo (Reggie Fields) —
Reminiscing (180 gram pressing) ... LP Wenha/Tidal Waves, 1981. New Copy (reissue)... $23.99 26.99
An obscure set from the Detroit scene of the early 80s – a jazz record, but one with a nice current of soul – thanks to work on both bass and vocals from Reginald "ShooBeeDoo" Fields! Wendell Harrison recorded the record, and also plays tenor on the record – but the set' ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Pharoah Sanders —
Africa (180 gram pressing – with bonus tracks) ... LP Timeless/Tidal Waves, 1987. New Copy 2LP (reissue)... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A brilliant 80s set from Pharoah Sanders – a record that has him a much more understated setting than some of his other albums from the time – but one that's maybe even more soulful and searching overall! The great one plays blistering tenor right from the start – in a quartet ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Moon Child (180 gram pressing) ... LP Timeless/Tidal Waves, 1989. New Copy (reissue)... $23.99 26.98
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 ...

Eastbound/Tidal Waves, 1973. New Copy (reissue)... $23.99 26.99
An obscure bit of heavy soul – and the only vocal album on the jazz-based Eastbound imprint of Detroit's legendary Westbound Records! Albert's a blues artist, and sings in a soulful electric style that's similar to some of the Stax work of Albert King – but which has a bit more of a ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

CMP/Tidal Waves, 1993. New Copy 2LP (reissue)... $28.99 34.99
A very unusual moment from the mighty Bernie Worrell – the keyboardist that most folks know for his work as part of the P-Funk universe of George Clinton – stepping out here on an early 90s album done in collaboration with producer Bill Laswell! Like most of Laswell's other projects ... (Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
