Is This The Life We Really WantColumbia, 2017. Near Mint- 2LP Gatefold
LP, Vinyl record album (Rock LP)
Mayo Thompson
Corky's Debt To His FatherTexas Revolution, 1970. Near Mint-
The legendary album from Mayo Thompson – pared down with more of an outsider folk rock vibe after the freaky psych of the first couple Red Krayola – and ultimately just as trailblazing! Mayo's voice and skewed songcraft are front and center, though there's piano, organ, fiddle, slide ... LP, Vinyl record album (Rock LP)
Daniel Johnston
Hi How Are You – The Unfinished AlbumEternal Yip Eye, 1983. Near Mint-

Gryphon, 1980. Near Mint-
LP, Vinyl record album (Jazz LP)
Richard Hell & The Voidoids
Blank GenerationSire, 1977. Near Mint-
Sublime sneering work from the great Richard Hell – a key album in the evolution of punk on the US scene! The record marks a huge shift after Hell left Television – harder, nastier sounds – almost on a par with the Dead Boys on Sire, but a bit more artistic too – especially ... LP, Vinyl record album (Rock LP)
Van Morrison
MoondanceWarner, 1970. Near Mint- Gatefold
Maybe the greatest album ever from Van Morrison – and a set that broke into a whole new side of his talents! Van's producing himself on the record – not really in the conventional role as a producer, but in a way that has him really writing most of the album as he goes along in the ... LP, Vinyl record album (Rock LP)
Mel Lewis
Mel Lewis & FriendsHorizon, 1976. Near Mint- Gatefold
An excellent solo set as a leader from drummer Mel Lewis – one that reminds us that he can still cook very strongly away from his big band with trumpeter Thad Jones! The set has Lewis in different groupings with an excellent set of the friends mentioned in the title – a top-shelf ... LP, Vinyl record album (Jazz LP)
Mike Mainieri
Love PlayArista, 1977. Near Mint-
Mike Mainieri's looks a little bit dopey on the cover – but don't hold that against him, as the album's a sharp set from the 70s, and one of his real standouts as a leader! Mike had been a vibist on countless other records before this one, but the album really has him coming into his own as ... LP, Vinyl record album (Jazz LP)
Jazz Crusaders
Live SidesPacific Jazz/Blue Note, 1968/1969. Very Good
A tasty 70s reissue of material from the Jazz Crusaders smoking Live At the Lighthouse albums from 1968 and 1969 – both tremendous records that really show the group stretching out at the end of the 60s! The collection goes for the tunes from those sets that demonstrate the freer, hipper ... LP, Vinyl record album (Jazz LP)
Public Enemy, EU & Others
Do The Right Thing – SoundtrackMotown, 1989. Very Good
The classic soundtrack to Spike Lee's Do The Right Thing – lead, of course, by Public Enemy's "Fight The Power" – and beyond that is a pretty wonderful, and not always as intense cross-section of some of the finer urban soul and New Jack Swing, circa '89, breezy vocal-centric ... LP, Vinyl record album (Hip Hop LP)
Family Of Mann (Herbie Mann)
First LightAtlantic, 1974. Near Mint-
Pretty great stuff – and a record that's often hidden amidst the flurry of so-so Herbie Mann albums from the mid 70s – but is well worth seeking out! The Family Of Mann group is one organized by Herbie Mann, and featuring Steve Gadd on drums, Pat Rebillot on keyboards, Tony Levin on ... LP, Vinyl record album (Jazz LP)
Herbie Mann
WaterbedAtlantic, 1975. Near Mint-
A sweet electric set from the great Herbie Mann – one of his best of the time! Like a number of his contemporaries recording jazz for Atlantic, Herbie had moved pretty firmly into a funky soul mode by the mid 70s – adding in lots of electric instrumentation and vocals to keep up with ... LP, Vinyl record album (Jazz LP)
Frank Sinatra
This Is Sinatra!Capitol, Early 50s. Very Good
This Is Sinatra indeed – a wonderful collection of singles, and a near-lost album to the shifting sands of time! The record wasn't one of Frank's "album concepts" for Capitol, and has since been dismantled in the catalog – but for many in the 50s, this was one of THE Sinatra ... LP, Vinyl record album (Vocalists LP)
Miles Davis
MilestonesColumbia, 1958. Very Good
One of our 50s favorites by Miles Davis – and a record that offers the same twin-sax sound as his classic Kind Of Blue – with both John Coltrane and Cannonball Adderley working alongside Miles in the group! Rhythm here is by the Prestige-era trio of Red Garland on piano, Paul Chambers ... LP, Vinyl record album (Jazz LP)

Selflessness (Japanese paper sleeve edition)Impulse (Japan), 1963/1965. Used Gatefold

Daughter Like It Hot/Groove Master (Jamaica), 1975. Very Good+
7-inch, Vinyl record (Reggae 7-inch)
Savoy/Sony (Japan), 1956. Used
Excellent early hardbop material from Hank Mobley – recorded in a slightly looser style than his Blue Note work, but essential 50s work nonetheless! The album's got a relaxed, open feel – almost the blowing session mode used with Mobley on Savoy, and a great illustration of Hank's ... CD (Jazz CD)

7-inch, Vinyl record (Reggae 7-inch)
Don Cherry
Mu Second Part (LP sleeve edition)BYG/Sunspots (Italy), 1969. Used Gatefold
Don Cherry really breaks out here on his classic Mu sessions from France – using the new freedoms of post-68 Paris to explore themes at a level that would set the tone for generations to come! The album's very spare, and very improvised – with Cherry on pocket trumpet, piano, and ... CD (Jazz CD)
Tony Tuff
I Need Your Loving/Joe Frasier (Jamaica), 1978. Very Good+
7-inch, Vinyl record (Reggae 7-inch)
Prestige (Japan), 1957. Used
A seminal session from the team of Miles Davis & John Coltrane – not nearly as "cookin" (at least in a blowing session way) as you might guess from the title, but instead a beautiful example of the lyrically modern explorations the pair created together! Rhythm is by the trio ... CD (Jazz CD)

One O'Clock Jump (Japanese paper sleeve edition)
Verve (Japan), 1957. Used

CD (Classical CD)
Elmer Bernstein/
Silencers
RCA, 1966. Very Good
The groovy groovy soundtrack to the first Matt Helm film – starring Dean Martin as a 60s master of intrigue! Elmer Bernstein handled the soundtrack with a really great approach – jazz, swinging, and with plenty of mod 60s bits – very much in some of the same territory as Lalo ...
