Joe Tex - Buying A Book (LP)
Atlantic SD 8231, 1969 United States One of the most underrated Joe Tex albums in my eyes and ears. Mainly uptempo soul cuts that will do wonders on most floors. We Can't Sit Down Now is my favorite but Sure Is Good and Get Your Lies Togther are real fin...

Etta Jones - Etta Jones '75 (LP)
Westbound W-203, 1975 United States The grand lady with a brilliant version of Bill Withers's Grandma's Hands and Bobby Eli's Just Don't Wanna Be Lonely. The former sounds like something Premo would want to mess with. There are so many soulful and jazzy...

Edwin Starr - War And Peace (LP)
Gordy GS948, 1970 United States Highly recommended Gordy album release with the famous Edwin Starr War theme but much better options are I Just Wanted To Cry and California Soul where Edwin really gets going. Like new vinyl grade, cover has faint ri...
