Earth Wind & Fire —
Last Days & Time ... CD Columbia, 1972. Used ... $3.99
Earth Wind & Fire's first album for Columbia Records – the start of a really legendary run during the 70s! The sound here is a bit tighter than their first two for Warner Brothers – a groove that has funk and soul taking a bit more precedence over the jazz of their roots – ... read more CD

Buddy Miles —
Message To The People ... LP Mercury, Late 60s. Near Mint- Gatefold ... $16.99
A classic bit of tripped-out soul from Buddy Miles – put together with a lot of nice psychedelic production, and an overall sound that stays nice and deep on the bottom end of things – and lets Buddy rock out heavily on rootsy vocals.

Brenda Russell —
Brenda Russell ... LP Horizon, 1979. Near Mint- ... $9.99
A beautiful late 70s effort from Brenda Russell, who seems to have been left by the wayside, perhaps because her wonderful almost Free Soul approach to modern, sophisticated, mellow grooves never quite fit into the commercial radio soul realm, or the slow jam scene, though it veered close enough to ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Crash Goes Love (blaster mix, master mix, dub)/Streetwise, 1984. Sealed (pic cover)... $4.99

Johnny Nash —
I Can See Clearly Now ... LP Epic, 1972. Near Mint- ... $9.99

Real Sound Of Chicago – Underground Disco From The Windy City ... CD BBE (UK), Late 70s/Early 80s. Used 2 CDs ... Just Sold Out!
The kind of record that makes us mighty proud to live in the Windy City – and a long-overdue look at the wealth of rare club, disco, and soul cuts bubbling in the Chicago underground at the end of the 70s!

Shalamar —
Look ... LP Solar, 1983. Near Mint- ... Just Sold Out!
Given the fashions on the cover, the "look" is pretty darn silly – but the music is plenty darn great!

Harvey Mason —
Groovin' You/Arista, 1979. Near Mint- ... $14.99

Smokey Robinson —
Pure Smokey ... LP Motown, 1974. Near Mint- ... $4.99

Rodney Franklin ... LP Columbia, 1980. Near Mint- ... $6.99

Federation Of The Tackheads ... LP Capitol, 1985. Near Mint- ... Just Sold Out!
An obscure early 80s electro effort from George Clinton – all the more surprising, given how much he pretended to hate hip hop!

Nightshift ... LP Motown, 1985. Near Mint- ... $4.99

Willie Hutch —
Color Her Sunshine ... LP Motown, 1976. Near Mint- ... Just Sold Out!
Solid soul from Willie Hutch – a self-produced, self-arranged, self-composed masterpiece that proves that he was one of the greatest things Motown had going in the mid 70s!

Gene Chandler —
Your Love Looks Good On Me ... LP Fast Fire, 1985. Near Mint- ... $4.99
Although Gene Chandler wasn't scoring nearly as big in the 80s as he was in the 60s, he was still a great vocalist, and could turn out some good material when he wanted to.

Bruce Johnston —
Going Public ... LP Columbia, 1977. Near Mint- ... $6.99
A strange lost relic from Beach Boy Bruce Johnston – recorded in the mid 70s with some sweet AOR production work by Gary Usher.

Boz Scaggs —
Silk Degrees ... LP Columbia, 1976. Very Good ... Just Sold Out!
Blue-eyed soul from Boz Scaggs, with a decidedly Philly influenced sound to the production, which we'd hazard a guess comes more from the Hall & Oates side of town than the Sigma Sound axis. Still, this is a solid album with the irresistible hit "Lowdown", still a favorite around ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

"Don't Make Me Over" was an instant classic the day it was written by Burt Bacharach way back in the 60s – but Sybil's version from 1989 has always been one of our favorites, picking up on the natural syncopation of the song to that great Soul II Soul Nu Groove that was her ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record
