New Releases
Lyle Divinski has made a brilliantly produced lovely Blue-Eyed Soul album which is easily our album of the week. Sharon Jones has made a fantastic essential Funky Soul Christmas Party album. We haven’t heard much from UK Soul/R&B artist Everis for 20 years and he follows the path of Don-E in creating new songs from Rare Groove classics.
We have a few copies of the new Babyface album which is hard to find in the UK due to an export ban.
Reissues and comps
There a couple of good Jazz retrospectives from Jack Costanzo and Oscar Pettiford, plus the Streetwise label is the focus of the latest release in the Sources-Anthology 3CD series.
Reissue vinyl – new arrivals
We have increased our reissue Vinyl LP range with some more classic Soul, Jazz and Blues 180 gm pressings.
Back In stock
We are now back in stock of the two top New independent Soul titles from Toni Redd ‘Her Redness’ and Terisa Griffin ‘Revival of Soul’ , both great albums and we have a limited number of signed copies from Terisa.
House Masters Maw vol 2 is also finally back in stock.
