Style: Vocal Jazz / Experimental Contemporaries

Format: LP
Label: Polydor

Year: 1982

Condition: NM/VG+

By far one of my favourite vocal jazz records made in Germany. If you dig the work of Monika Linges, Lauren Newton and Silvia Droste you need to hear this. A little more experimental than the average easy scat bossa ladies and mysteriously rare although released on Polydor. Anyway it's about the music and not the pressing quantities so please ...

Style: Mutant Library Prog meets Disco

Format: LP
Label: Sterne

Year: 197?

Condition: NM/VG+  

Here's an odd french library album by the rather unknown composer Serge Franklin. Maybe you have heard of his alias - Adjenar Sidhar Khan :) This LP includes the obscure hit Rainbow Riders - perfect Massiera-like psych-disco with phasing drums etc.... and check out South Is South too. To my ears this is sounding like it could be a track from Rob's first LP
