LOS TRES REYES MAGOS UPDATE SOON...

Classics page will self destruct...NEVER

DISCO 12s now at the bottom of this page

Identikit STK…nm/nm…$95

We will be featuring some choice Italian joints in the next few updates. Franco Mannino brings us a loungy, ambient soundtrack that explodes during "Liz five", an organ and beat rich funk track of high caliber. Ther is another uptemp track, but its all about "Liz five". In no way does STH condone or have anything to do with whatever the fuck is going down on the cover.

Ferrante & Teicher- Beautiful,Beautiful...ex/vg+...$7

Cant disagree with the title of this one. Beautiful cover and 3 equally beautiful dusty cuts.

Cymande...vg/vg...$15

Simple and plain one of the best records ever. Plays very clean. Give it a good home or give a gift to a friend.

Cymande- Second Time Around ...vg/vg+...$15

No sophomore slump here. Essential through and through, deep soul and righteousness.

The Poppy Family- Which Way you going Billy?..ex/vg+...$27

sitar laced grooves, haunting reclusive lyrics, male and female leads...and "of cities and escapes" a loners anthem.

Azar Lawrence- Summer Solstice...ex/vg+...$10

Promo copy presitge label goody. Sax album with brazilian influences.

Doug & Jean Carn…vg/vg…$10

Something of a greatest hits package on the ovation label. beautiful cover design (carrying over from the black jazz masterpieces) and some of the best of doug and jean: "Revelation" and "Mighty Mighty" and "Higher Ground"

Masterfleet- High on the Sea…ex/nm…$15

Sussex funk output sounding little bit like Sly and Family at times. "Let love Stand" is heat that could fit in easily on "Theres a Riot goin on". shrink wrap hardly played beauty.

William DeVaughn…vg+/vg…10

Sublime, righteous classic material. Well known "be thankful..." is just a part of the greater glory of the entire album.

Monette Suddler- Time for a Change…nm/nm(cutout)…$33

Thorough punchy break and guitar interplay on hard to find lady guitarists record

Stanley Cowell- Illusion suite…ex/vg+…$11

"Miss vikki" funky workout. one of the best ECM records

Abel…nm/vg+…$30

"Music maker" is some serious rock-funk bizzness. The vibe that every rock album should get on.

Stelvio Cipriani- Tentacles STK…ex/ex…$40

Italian soundtrack to a movie with a Henry Fonda cameo. Some lushness, some disco, a lot of atmospherics and dramatics.

Les Baxter- Moog Rock…nm/vg…$12

Beaty meaty versions of classical music from the Hell's Belles dude. UK sites might try selling this for 30 pounds, dont be fooled! Cop it at STH!

RCA Super Hits of the 70s - Living Series…nm/nm…$10

Living Jazz renditions of soul hits "Get Ready" "ABC" "Games People Play" and the monster "Walk on By" sampled by Common on the Ressurection album. 3 LPs of coversongs in a crazy tri-fold with dancing space women and psychedelic colors.

First Cosins Jazz Ensemble- For the Cos of Jazz …ex/vg+...$14

Butter super creamy Stu Gardner fusion sleazy funk joint from 1977. The last two cuts on side 2 are some groove greasy things.

A Philly classic. Demon Fuzz’ “Hymn to Mother Earth” is the standout track on this sick 70s comp, but it sits among other classic material from the Counts, Earth Wind and Fire, Rotary Connection, Africa, and others.

“Space Machine” starts off with the ill bassline and never stops.

well loved modern soul grooves

Roy Ayers- A Tear to a Smile...vg+/vg+...$12

1975 Roy Ayers classic album

Mr.Danny Pearson- Barry White Presents...vg+/vg+...$15

Recently spied on NYC boutique walls for dough, this is another lost Barry White production ala Tom Brock, with some similarly samplablable lush soul production.

"chicken yellow" "chicken yellow" "chicken yellow" "chicken yellow"

McFadden & Whitehead...ex/ex...$7

Hub...nm/ex...$7

AWB-Marina rock wannabes with a version of "Anyone who had a heart" with a sick dramatic intro

Blues Magoos- Gulf Coast Bound...vg+/vg+(taped seams)...$10

"slow down sundown" is banging. Amazing ethereal intro and then dramatic vocals over sublime vibes. Plays great. Nice jazz rock blues with percussive, beaty moments (especially "Magoo's Blues").

Sweet Salvation...nm/ex...$10

Interracial group with great cover version of Rock Steady with a breakdown

Isaac Hayes- Truck Turner...ex/vg+...$15

Bangin sleazy porn sounding disco with the illest bass breaks ever. Daaaaaaaaaam! Plays perfect.

Very funky, sleazy disco

Change - Glow of Love 12"..ex/ex...$110

One of the most feel good upbeat soul disco songs ever. Easy to catch on LP, impossible to find on 12 inch.

Unlimited Touch- I Hear Music in the Street 12"..vg+...$10
