A pair of RCA Records gems from Hugo Montenegro – back to back on a single CD! First up is Theme From The Godfather – a sweet 70s update of the moogy groovy that Hugo Montenegro first started crafting in the 60s! The album's got both moog and Arp – the latter of which brings in ... read more CD

Sweet swinging 60s work from British bandleader Ted Heath – packaged together in one nice double-length set!

Werner Twardy & Others —
Fantastic Sound Of Werner Twardy ... CD Verve (Germany), Late 60s/Early 70s. Used ... $12.99
Groovy sounds from Werner Twardy – a cool German arranger of the late 60s and early 70s – one who brings plenty of mod elements to play in his music! There's a bright, peppy sort of sound to most of these cuts – the coolest groove of the German easy scene during the economic ... read more CD

Stanley Turrentine —
Look Of Love ... CD Blue Note (Japan), 1968. Used ... $16.99
Stanley Turrentine's a hell of a soloist in a large ensemble setting – and there's possibly no better place to hear that talent at work than on this classic 60s date for Blue Note! The format's a bit different than other Turrentine records of the time – no small group romping, nor ... (Jazz, Now Sound) read more CD

Ventures —
Hawaii Five O ... LP 
Liberty, Late 60s. Near Mint- ... $6.99
If anybody could take a great tune and make it better, it was The Ventures – as you'll hear on this album's killer version of "Hawaii Five O" – as well as a host of other groovy goodies too!

A pair of groovy albums from Ray Conniff – both with a wonderful 70s vibe! Alone Again Naturally takes its title from the leadoff version of the great Gilbert O'Sullivan tune – and Ray conducts his group with a surprisingly bouncy vibe at times – mostly a sing-song mode that has ... read more CD

(Mono pressing with deep groove. Cover has wear on the spine.)
Percy Faith —
Music Of Christmas ... LP Columbia, 1959. Very Good ... $4.99
A set that has the lush Percy Faith approach turned towards a host of seasonal tunes – a rising blend of horns and orchestrations that come across here with maybe even a more moving quality than on some of Percy's other albums!

Shirley Scott —
Latin Shadows ... LP Impulse, 1965. Used Gatefold ... Just Sold Out!
A great album from Shirley Scott – with some excellent arrangements by Gary McFarland!

Carnegie Hall – February 4, 1961 ... LP United Artists, 1961/1972. Near Mint- 3LP Gatefold ... $4.99
Some of the greatest work you could ever find by Lenny Bruce! This set is a brilliant re-creation of a live show that Lenny cut at midnight at Carnegie Hall on February 4, 1961.

James Last —
Well Kept Secret ... LP Polydor, 1975. Near Mint- ... $4.99
One of the coolest records ever from James Last – a mid 70s American session, done with styles that are a fair bit different than his other work!

White Satin/Capitol, 1956/1959. Used ... $7.99

Prophet ... LP Verve, 1968. Used ... Just Sold Out!
One of the last albums that Cal Tjader ever cut for Verve – and it's also one of the best!

Dance The Bossa Nova ... LP RCA, 1962. Very Good ... $5.99
Tight orchestral material from Zaccarias, and featuring a set of bossa and samba groovers played by a heavy ensemble reed section.

2 Latin lovelies back to back – some of George Shearing's best late 50s work for Capitol!
