Resavoir —
Resavoir ... LP International Anthem, 2019. New Copy ... $22.99 23.99
A beautiful International Anthem debut from Resavoir – a group led by Will Miller, a musician who's equally skilled at both keyboards and trumpet – and who often plays in a style that sometimes makes it hard to tell which sound is coming from which instrument! In other words, there's ... (Jazz, Neo Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Sly5thAve —
Liberation ... LP Tru Thoughts (UK), 2024. New Copy ... $33.99 35.99
The most sophisticated album to date from this wonderful musician – a set that has Sly5thAve working with a large ensemble of players who shift along from track to track – delivering a very righteous reading of his core musical ideas, at a level that feels even more powerful than ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Resavoir —
Resavoir (2023) (colored vinyl pressing) ... LP International Anthem, 2023. New Copy ... $26.99 28.99
The second set from Resavoir – a project headed by Chicago producer/musician Will Miller, an artist who's had a lot of experience in the higher reaches of the hip hop scene – but who here gives himself over to much more personal, introspective modes! Yet the album's not a solo effort ... (Jazz, Neo Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Also available (Limited "dusk cloud" colored vinyl!)

Erykah Badu —
Mama's Gun ... LP Motown, 2000. New Copy 2LP Gatefold (reissue)... $32.99 34.99
A millennial classic from Erykah Badu – a record that came along right as the current century was starting up, to show a soulful path that would keep things strong for many years to come! The album grabbed a bigger audience than Erykah's first, but still kept things strong – really ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
D'Angelo —
Voodoo ... LP Virgin, 2000. New Copy 2LP (reissue)... $36.99 38.99
Sweet and gritty soul from D'Angelo – who takes a huge step into deeper territory on Voodoo – and it's one of the most monumental records of its time! On one level, Voodoo works as a nicely stripped-down session with a very classic soul feel. Gone are the overzealous flourishes that ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
D'Angelo —
Brown Sugar ... LP Capitol/Virgin, 1995. New Copy 2LP (reissue)... $31.99 35.99
A record that was an instant classic from the moment it was first released – and a set that's still pretty darn pleasing all these many years later! At a time when mainstream soul was often too smooth or too poppy, D'Angelo came along and not only found a way to return the music to the years ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Amy Winehouse —
Back To Black ... LP Universal, 2006. New Copy ... $25.99 26.98
An incredible album from Amy Winehouse – even way better than her fantastic debut! Although a contemporary soul album, this one's steeped in tradition – soul styles that run the gamut from Detroit down to Kingston, and which are carried off here with a rougher, sharper-edged sound than ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Also available Back To Black ... CD 3.99
Roy Hargrove & The RH Factor —
Hard Groove (180 gram pressing) ... LP Verve, 2003. New Copy 2LP (reissue)... $51.99 56.99
A funky collaboration of new and old players – as trumpeter Roy Hargrove explores a range of classic styles with a host of excellent guest stars! The RH Factor project includes work by Bernard Wright, Cornell Dupree, Karl Denson, and other funk luminaries – and it also features great ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Pressed at Third Man!)
Meshell Ndegeocello —
Omnichord Real Book ... LP Blue Note, 2023. New Copy 2LP ... $32.99 34.99
Meshell Ndegeocello just seems to grow more and more with each new record – quite a feat, given how unique she was at the start! Yet this record clearly marks a new chapter in her wonderful legacy – effortlessly weaving together soul, funk, and plenty of jazzy inspiration – all ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Erykah Badu —
New Amerykah Part Two (Return Of The Ankh) (violet vinyl pressing) ... LP Motown, 2010. New Copy 2LP Gatefold (reissue)... $26.99 29.99
The second chapter of Erykah Badu's New Amerykah – recorded for the most part, quite incredibly, during the same period and with the same collaborators as the mind-altering, murky and righteous hip hop funk experimentalism that was Part One – some months that must be among the most ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Limited edition – on "Shades Of Purple" vinyl!)
Domi & JD Beck —
Not Tight (180 gram pressing) ... LP Blue Note, 2022. New Copy ... $24.99 27.99
A mighty fresh debut from Domi and JD Beck – a duo who mix together keyboards and drums at a level that channels lots of styles from the global underground of the past decade or so, but with a jazzier sort of warmth, and a nicely soulful current throughout! The pair first got attention on a ... (Jazz, Neo Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Erykah Badu —
But You Caint Use My Phone (purple vinyl pressing) ... LP Motown, 2016. New Copy (reissue)... $23.99 25.99
A really great project from Erykah Badu – a set that's quite spare compared to the fuller sound and energy of her New Amerykah records – done in a bedroom studio in Dallas with producer Zach Witness! The music is lean and stripped-down – hip hop-influenced soul, but almost at a ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Limited edition purple vinyl pressing!)
Robert Glasper —
Black Radio Vol 3 (chartreuse vinyl pressing) ... LP Loma Vista, 2022. New Copy 2LP ... $26.99 29.99
Maybe the most righteous music we've ever heard from keyboardist Robert Glasper – and that's saying a heck of a lot, given his legacy of albums over the years! This project feels different than the previous Black Radio releases by Glasper – different than his initial blending of jazz ... (Jazz, Neo Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Indie exclusive chartreuse vinyl pressing. Quantities limited!)
Monday Michiru —
Don't Disturb This Groove (2024 Record Store Day Release) ... LP Grand Gallery (Japan), 2011. New Copy ... Just Sold Out!
A great one from Monday Michiru – sweet, soulful, and totally right on the money! The set's almost a return to the warm soul territory that first won us over in Monday's work from the 90s – as she takes on a whole host of older American soul tunes by Stevie Wonder, Teena Marie, and ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
