Coming Home ... LP Columbia, 2015. Used ... Just Sold Out!
An album with a very classic look on the cover – and an equally classic sound to match – one that takes us back to some of the hippest, coolest work by early 60s singers like Sam Cooke or Marvin Gaye!

Sha La Das —
Love In The Wind ... LP Dunham/Daptone, 2018. New Copy ... $14.99 18.99
