First vinyl issue of an unreleased jazz album recorded by keyboardist Kenny Cox for the Detroit Strata label in 1974. ‘My Lost Love’ ‘Clap Clap (the Joyful Noise) and ‘Samba De Romance’ are beautiful mellow keyboard led mid tempo shufflers, ‘Island Song’ is more uptempo and percussive. ‘Beyond the Dream’ is a spiritual jazz workout. Nice album, a real discovery.

THESE MEMORIES Rare Soul Gems…Memories of the rare soul scene are manifold but this timeless collection goes right to the heart and soul of the scene and is perhaps best summed up by the emotive title track “These Memories” by Almeta Lattimore. You really don’t need any other reason to buy this album, but how about Corey Blake’s £1,000+ collector’s-piece “How Can I Go On Without You”, which has evaded compilation for over twenty years. Equally rare is Billy Harner’s “I Got It From Heaven”, recorded and produced in 1976 by ‘Sound Gems’ label boss Frank Fioravanti. It was discovered,...

Sir Edward (AKA Harold Vick) - The Power Of Feeling Jazz Room Records have stepped things up a notch with their latest reissue, a fine piece of A&R from label head honcho Paul Murphy who recently paid a visit to us in the shop to hand deliver this item.
