Portishead —
Portishead ... LP Go Beat, 1997. New Copy 2LP ... $24.99 26.99
There's a nicely cinematic image on the cover of this second album from Portishead – and the sound is very cinematic too – a real genre-setting standard for the kinds of new territory the group and some of their key contemporaries began to explore in the 90s! The overall style is a bit ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Four Tet —
New Energy ... LP Text, 2017. New Copy 2LP Gatefold ... $21.99
Some of the lushest, most melodic material from Four Tet yet – straight up beautiful for the most part – and a pretty strong contender for his best to date! He's blending electronics and more natural sounds in ways that aren't out of character given his past work, but the title is ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Rebop – The Savoy Remixes ... CD Savoy, 1950s/2006. Used ... $4.99
The Savoy jazz catalog gets the remix tradition – following nicely in the mode of similar projects on Verve or Blue Note! The work here is all pulled from classic bop sessions of the late 40s and 1950s – key tracks that defined the sound of Savoy back in the day, but cut down here to ...

Pancada Motor – Manifesto Da Festa ... CD Mundo Melhor (Brazil), 2013. Used ... $11.99

Tremendous grooves from the earliest (and best) years of the acid jazz scene – all recorded at a time when London was exploding with sounds from the 60s and 70s, and turning out some of the hippest music on the planet! Although the term "acid jazz" was soon mishandled and mis-manage ... read more CD
Nimbus Sextet —
Dreams Fulfilled ... CD Acid Jazz (UK), 2021. New Copy ... $13.99 14.98
A Scottish sextet, but one with a much fuller sound overall – this great blend of funk, jazz, and a bit of soul – the last of which comes up on the album's few vocal numbers!

Bebel Gilberto ... CD Ziriguiboom/Six Degrees, 2004. Used ... $1.99
Bebel's second album for Six Degrees – and quite possibly an even better album than the first!

Dare ... LP Sony (Italy), 2021. New Copy 2LP Gatefold ... $34.99
