Massively underrated Esther Phillips album with a version of Use Me that beats the original in my eyes. Rare German green label CTI pressing from '72 in thick Kudu jacket. Lovely...

A wonderful Minnie Riperton record that you can enjoy in full. Famous for the A Tribe Called Quest samples of Inside My Love and Baby This Love I Have. Price is reduced as copy has got a fair bit of hairlines causing ...

Re-issue gatefold pressing on Castle with remastered sound. Everything here is top drawer with Les Fleurs, Come Into My Garden, Only When I'm Dreaming.... VG / VG+ copy with light wear and one soft marks on Completene...

Hard not to move the floor with Want Adds, a perfect soul dancer from the all female vocal trio out of LA. German original in strong VG condition, looks a little worn but plays great (listen to the actual record as al...

Very funky set from studio group Soul Finders with top covers of Sweet Soul Woman, Explosion In My Soul and Soul Man. Kind of rare, at least not a record we see all too often. Plenty of hairlines on vinyl but plays de...

Raw opening break on Sweet Misery used by J. Dilla on Thunder. Lovely soulful cover of Many Rivers To Cross as well. German original from '73 with gatefold cover.

Make It Easy OnYourself used frequently in Hip Hop but this album is a good play on any giving Sunday. Soulful chill.... US Scepter original in NM condition. Tiny punchhole.

Never understood why the early Dionne Warwick albums are not hyped more. Great takes of big soul classics in You're All I Need To Get By, People Get Ready and the drums are always heavy and at the forefront. German pr...

Comedy release by the self proclaimed jazz comedian. Stacks of useful vocal snippets to play around with in your next mix. DJ Shadow and RJD2 used some of Franklin Ajaye's stuff. Big writing on front cover, vinyl is w...

Comedy release on Buddah with the famous Dyn-O-Mite vocal sample flipped by the Beastie Boys and Jungle Brothers. Unplayed copy.

Back to back soul for the floor with O'Jays Back Stabbers and For The Love Of Money, Harold Melvins' The Love I Lost and the fuzzy organ groove by Chase on Get It On. Nice cover photo on this scarce Columbia pressing.

This is where a very long and very successful carrer started for Mr Isaac Lee Hayes. The sound is very different to his signature pieces but some really wonderful jazzed up soul vibes here. German Atlantic pressing fr...

One of his very best packed with soul samples. Those symphonic arrangements on Ike's Mood I, Look Of Love and Ike's Rap has been used in later productions by hundreds of artists and to great effect. A masterpiece ahea...

Great live performance from the Sahara. I particular enjoy his arrangements on Use Me and Do Your Thing. A few hip hop samples thrown in by Dr. Dre and Group Home to top things off. Later Stax issue from '86 in near p...

First solo release after departing The Tempations and a really good one. Northern Soul appeal throughout here with Put A Little Love In Your Heart, The Letter and the big soul anthem I Let Love Slip Away. Essential pi...

Another nice David Ruffin solo project with Van McCoy heavily involved resulting in a somewhat discofied sound. Top tunes in First Round Knock-Out and Good Good Times. Unplayed stock copy on Spanish Motown.

This record is up there among my favorite all time soul albums. Famous for the Ashford Simpson penned Don't Send Nobody Else but also holds Pickup, If You Where There and Moving On. In fairness everything on here is q...

Fantastic second album by New York soul group Ace Spectrum including the sweet soul cut Without You and the 8 plus minuttes of genius in Keep Holding On. US original in weak VG+ condition, plays without noice but has ...
