Philly 60's soul written and produced by Gamble and Huff, arranged by Bobby Martin and Thom Bell.

The unbelievably deep Rufus Harley - the Roland Kirk of the bagpipes. Listen to him disentangle and deconstruct Mary Poppins to seriously deep leftfield effect. Rare album!

Classic, classic soul jazz latin tinged groovy album featuring 2 killers "Listen Here' and "Sham Time".

Black Dog, Stairway to Heaven ...

This is the fourth Led Zeppelin album. The band intentionally left it untitled, with no indication that it was even a Led Zeppelin album on the original release, though fans and media have commonly referred to it as 'Led Zeppelin IV', 'Zoso', 'Symbols' and other unofficial names.

Highly sought-after Motown Album that will definitely appeal to fans of Betty Davis: the feisty 'in your face' attitude, the funk rock stylings...she's got it all! You can tell that Yvonne Fair started off her career with James Brown - there is some serious funk going on here! Loads of great tracks on this varied album, including "It Should Have Been Me", so check it out!

Folk roots. Original USA Vanguard vinyl 

Killer, killer classic album featuring "Rock Steady", "Day Dreaming" and loads more. 100% Essential album!

Mostly recorded at Muscle Shoals w/ David Hood, Barry Beckett, Eddie Hinton, Jimmy Johnson, Pete Carr and ROger Hawkins.

Amazing jazz/rock featuring Alice Coltrane! Seriously, this is one of the funkiest, jazziest rock records ever made. "Mother Nature Land", "Sky Trane" and loads more. Absolutely essential!!

This is the heaviest Funky Afro Latin Jazz record you have ever heard, but not only that - it's never been released before! This is Sabu's band from his legendary Afro Temple album recorded at a session for Swedish radio in 1973. It is UNBELIEVABLE. Heavy, heavy, heavy funky jazz!

Very highly recommended compilation of super-rare self-released private press and little label 1970s US female folk! This is absolutely gorgeous music that will appeal to fans of Joni Mitchell, Linda Perhacs, Vashti Bunyan etc! This is our favourite release from the ever-excellent Numero label! Truly beautiful, haunting, mellow, bittersweet, tranquil music that fills your life with sunshine and clears your mind like a good massage! As ever with the Numero label, this is wonderfully packaged with loads of photos and extensive sleeve notes.

Highly recommended! Check the soundclips!

Heavyweight Strata-East deep and heavy funky jazz bomb - Hopscotch is a KILLER tune + loads more. Airto in the line-up as well as Stanley Clarke with some heavy b-lines!

Killer off-kilter disco rap disco-not-disco genius. This is their first and best album and includes the hits "Wordy Rappinghood" and "Genius Of Love". Essential!

Lady, Nicole Wray and Terri Walker's first project together, unites the mellowness and pop flair of 60s soul with the driving beat of hop-hop, and the silky rhythms of modern R&B.

The honesty, the aching sweetness, the raw power of these singers and their songs will remind you that nothing can move you as much, or touch you as deeply, as two women with amazing voices singing in tight harmony. The singers linked up with producers Leon Michels and Jeff Silverman, whose lushly-orchestrated, beat-heavy songs have showcased artists such as Adele, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, Aloe Blacc, and Lee Fields!

BACK IN STOCK!!

Popol Vuh - Kailash: Pilgrimage to the Throne of the Gods

Super-deluxe collectors very limited edition Popol Vuh box set vinyl + DVD and 2CD + DVD!

Kailash is a new collection of work from Florian Fricke, leader of Popol Vuh, seminal group in the German rock scene of the 1970s (Can, Faust, Amon Duul, Ash Ra Tempel, Tangerine Dream) and creators of classic soundtracks to the films of Werner Herzog (Aguirre the Wrath of God, Nosferatu, Fitzcaraldo and others).

Popol Vuh took their name from an epic mythological text from the 16th century Quiché Maya people of Guatemala, the name translates as ‘meeting place, together or common house’

Kailash brings together essential and unreleased piano recordings, together with Fricke’s travelogue film Kailash, about his spiritual voyage to Tibet’s 22,000 ft. Kailash mountain, ‘Throne of the Gods’, and the accompanying soundtrack album to this film.

This collection is released as a deluxe 2CD + DVD set and as a one off 1000 copies worldwide collectors bespoke box set 2LP + DVD with bonus cards/inserts.

Essential Piano Recordings:  For the first time, this compilation on Soul Jazz Records unites a careful selection of Florian Fricke’s most favourite piano tracks and compositions, both released and previously unreleased. Aside from his groundbreaking work with Popol Vuh, Fricke’s background is that of a classical composer and it was one of his late wishes to release ‘piano only’ recordings.

These essential piano recordings by Florian Fricke should be considered as something like the core, or the heart, of many Popol Vuh compositions. They contain tracks from 1972-1989 that Florian Fricke would have liked on a piano only album, enriched with further song improvisations that have been found posthumously, after he passed away in 2001. Some of these are studies for key tracks of Popol Vuh (for example ‘Hosianna Mantra’, 1972). Others are reoccurring patterns and sequences, with Florian often working with recurring motives frequently further developed with the group. 

This record is devoted to his inspiration and creativity as a contributor to an ongoing spiritual journey for others.

Kailash – Pilgrimage to The Throne of the Gods:  The holiest mountain in Asia, in a far away corner of west Tibet, amidst wild and ragged landscape, nearly entirely cut off from the rest of the world, is called Kailash. For the pilgrims of four religions this 6675m high mountain is the ‘throne of gods’, or ‘navel of the world’ – a place where the divine takes an earthly shape. For thousands of years pilgrims have travelled to this place to worship the mystery of the mountain circumnavigating it on foot. The path around Kailash is an archaic ‘path of initiation’.

Florian Fricke and filmmaker Frank Fiedler (also an original founding Popol Vuh member) made their own spiritual trek along this path and documented the journey. Accompanying epic landscape scenes in the film is the music of Florian Fricke and Popol Vuh, spiritual music inspired by this unique journey.

This posthumous project has been put together with the full cooperation and assistance of Florian Fricke’s family.

Werner Herzog: ‘Florian was always able to create music I feel helps audiences visualize something hidden in the images on screen, and in our own souls too.’

 ‘Herzog on Herzog’
