Army Arrangement ... LP 
Knitting Factory, 1985. New Copy (reissue)... $21.99 22.99
The original take of "Army Arrangement" – one of the greatest 80s grooves from Fela Kuti – stretched out here over the course of the entire album! The notes list side one as being the "instrumental" and side two as the "vocal" – but in truth, the ... (Global Grooves, Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Fela & Africa 70 —
No Agreement ... LP Knitting Factory, 1978. New Copy (reissue)... $21.99 26.99
A killer from the classic years, and one of Fela's best albums!

A heck of a great little guitar funk album – a rare early 70s session from the groovy Eddy Senay – an artist that we'd rank right up there with bigger names like Phil Upchurch, David T Walker, Dennis Coffey, or Eddie Fisher at the same time! Fisher's maybe the best comparison here ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Also available Hot Thang ... CD 13.99(Limited colored vinyl pressing.)

My Name Is Doug Hream Blunt ... LP Luaka Bop, Late 80s. New Copy ... $18.99 19.98
The long-overdue formal presentation of the music of Doug Hream Blunt – a self-taught, self-styled San Francisco soul singer from the 80s – one who recorded a handful of tunes that never really saw the light of day!

Freddy King —
Bossa Nova & Blues (180 gram pressing) ... LP King/Sundazed, 1963. New Copy (reissue)... $23.99 24.98
Bossa nova and blues? Turns out they're a surprisingly great combination – but not in a mode that's really the more mainstream conception of either – and instead more of that mix of Brazilian rhythms and soul you'd find in early 60s work by The Drifters! The record's a real standout ... (Blues, Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Wild Tchoupitoulas —
Wild Tchoupitoulas ... LP Island/Jackpot, 1976. New Copy (reissue)... $20.99
A great slice of New Orleans soul from the 70s – a record that replicates the "Indian" culture in the Mardi Gras scene – and which is most notable for featuring work by The Meters as well! The groove here is kind of Meters-styled funk, mixed with some fuller New Orleans mode ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Gil Scott-Heron/XL/International Anthem, 2010/2020. New Copy ... $21.99 22.99
A fantastic tribute to a fantastic record – one that takes all the core lyrical creations of Gil Scott Heron from I'm New Here, then adds in a wide array of new music from drummer/genius Makaya McCraven!

Beginning Of The End —
Fishman (full length, 45 version)/Strut (UK), 1972. New Copy (pic cover, reissue)... $11.99
That's "Fishman", not fisherman – and the tune's a rare b-side from the insanely funky group Beginning Of The End – presented here in a never-issued full length take that runs for nearly 12 minutes in length! Given that Beginning Of The End usually only gave us shorter funk ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record
William Onyeabor —
Atomic Bomb (2015 Black Friday Release) ... LP Luaka Bop, Late 70s. New Copy (reissue)... $20.99

A monster from the great John Lee Hooker – an artist who isn't usually associated with King Records, but who issued this mighty collection of sides for the label at the start of the 60s! Most of the work dates from a few years before – gritty tracks that have Hooker at his best postwar ... (Blues, Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Howlin Wolf, Muddy Waters, & Bo Diddley —
Super Super Blues Band (colored vinyl pressing) ... LP Checker/Jackpot, 1967. New Copy (reissue)... $16.99 19.99
A group that definitely lives up to its name – given that the lineup features the Chess Records stalwarts Bo Diddley, Howlin Wolf, and Muddy Waters! The set's maybe a bit more in the mode of Wolf or Waters than some of Bo's own records – although there's a bit of that riffing spark of ... (Blues, Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album
