‘Classic Vinyl series.’

His first proper LP, recorded in 1955; with Red Garland, Oscar Pettiford, and Philly Joe Jones.

Funk and soul from mid-seventies Detroit — with that layer of gritty sophistication you find in Marlena’s Blue Notes, and Esther Phillips’ Kudus of the time.

The definitive version of this sufferers’ anthem, in the best format, with a killer dub following up the deejay cut on the flip.

A collection of EPs recorded at home, most Decembers since 2001, and given to friends as Christmas cards. Traditional carols and many originals, with stickers, stories, a songbook, and a bunch of stocking fillers.

Luxuriant, mesmerizing Black Ark classics.

Treasures from the Black Ark, Aquarius and elsewhere, full of musical ambition.
