Blue Bossa In The Bronx: Live From The Blue Morocco is a never-before-released recording of jazz trumpet icon Kenny Dorham, captured live at the Blue Morocco jazz club in The Bronx, NY in 1967 - featuring Sonny Red, Cedar Walton, Paul Chambers and Denis Charles. Transferred from the original tape reels that were recorded by engineer Bernard Drayton, the limited-edition 2 LP set was mastered for by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab and pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Le Vinylist. The elaborate booklet includes liner notes by jazz author and scholar Bob Blumenthal, plus interviews with artists who knew or were inspired by Kenny Dorham, such as Eddie Henderson, Jeremy Pelt, Steven Bernstein, Reggie Workman, Dan Morgenstern and others. Released exclusively for Record Store Day 2025.

Grammy-winning singer-songwriter Jackie DeShannon got her start singing gospel at home and in church as a child in her native Kentucky, and then singing country songs in her teens on her own weekly radio show, followed by rockabilly in the late 1950s. But her career really started in full swing after she moved to Los Angeles in the early 1960s and signed to Liberty Records and it's song publishing arm, Metric Music, where she would write on her own as well as in collaboration with Sharon Sheely, Randy Newman, Jack Nitzsche, and Jimmy Page. Her recordings during this time initially emphasized rhythm-and-blues material and then embraced the folk era blending with west coast country rock and the Southern California sound. As a staff member of Metric Music, Jackie created a countless number of demo recordings. Although some of these have appeared on unofficial/bootleg CDs over the years and a few were sprinkled in her with her Liberty/Imperial releases, there has never been a complete authorized commercial issue of DeShannon demos until now. Covering the years 1966-68, LOVE FOREVER offers over 16 demo selections by Jackie which reflect the decade's shift to a more introspective songwriting approach. Although Jackie enjoyed major hit singles such as "What the World Needs Now Is Love" and her evergreen anthem "Put a Little Love in Your Heart," her craftsmanship as a tunesmith took a more personal tack here. And with recollections by Lady Love herself incorporated into Richie Unterberger's liner notes as well as photographs from her private collection, LOVE FOREVER paints a picture of a timeless artist evolving with the times, on her way to new creative territory in the 1970s with career crowning compositions and recordings at Capitol, Atlantic, Columbia, and Amherst Records. And best of all, 10 of the 16 tracks have never appeared ANYWHERE (and only one on vinyl), so most of the tunes and tracks on LOVE FOREVER will be new even to DeShannon devotees. Pressed for Record Store Day in Valentine red with white swirl vinyl limited to 1250 copies!

For Flotsam and Jetsam, the heavy metal highway has been sprinkled with nails since their inception in 1981. However, despite the rough ride, the band has endured and continues to put out album after album of unapologetic heavy metal and thrash. Eleven years after releasing their classic debut album Doomsday for the Deceiver, the band returned to the label that signed them, writing more aggressive material than it had in years. High is a declaration of hate, brimming with full-fisted guitar riffs and head-bobbing beats-an unrestrained battle cry from a band that refuses to lay down and die.

Limited release of Spirit Box, available for the first time on vinyl. Originally released digitally, this edition will be the first chance for fans to acquire a physical copy of the release. Fans of Flying Lotus know very well that Steven Ellison draws from a wide variety of influences in his art. On Spirit Box, his latest EP, the influences remain as disparate as ever, resulting in what might be, for him, his most idiosyncratic project thus far. In the past, outer space, anime, and Jean-Michel Jarre would play into a FlyLo project. This time around, Ellison turns to the supernatural, the underrated, and the mystical. Ellison used this EP to morph his sound into something new; as someone who's been a trailblazer for nearly two decades, he's just starting out on a new path that plenty others are sure to follow knowing that a visionary is at it's helm. Ecord Store Day release.

Sly & the Family Stone were true pioneers on so many levels: black/white, male/female, rock/soul, the act shattered all preconceptions of what popular music could be, and would go on to become one of the most groundbreaking and influential artists the world has ever witnessed. The First Family: Live at Winchester Cathedral 1967 is an unprecedented live performance by the original Family Stone line-up, recorded just prior to their signing to Epic Records, and a full year before their chart breakthrough with 'Dance To The Music.' This fascinating recording explicates Sly Stone's genius on a tremendously exciting and atmospheric set of vintage soul covers, peppered with the arrangements, motifs and intoxicating energy that would soon become familiar during the group's ascent. Interest in Sly is high with the forthcoming documentary directed by Questlove, but to experience the full impact of the Family Stone's legendary abilities from the start, this historic document is required listening. 12" LP Deluxe RSD edition with gatefold sleeve Lavish 24-page booklet

TABOU1 is proud to present Roots Natty, a treasure trove of rare tracks from one of reggae’s most iconic groups, The Gladiators. These songs were recorded during reggae's golden era, from 1977 to 1979, a time when the genre was shaping global music culture.
During this period, alongside other reggae giants like Culture and Burning Spear, The Gladiators crafted unforgettable arrangements to match their deep, thoughtful compositions. With Albert Griffiths and Clinton Fearon at the helm, their lyrics transported listeners to a mystical land where peace reigned, Rastafari thrived, and the chaos of Babylon was left far behind.
The majority of the tracks on Roots Natty are rare Jamaican singles, featuring mixes that are harder, heavier, and more dub-infused than their album released in the West at the same time. Originally released in small, exclusive batches in Jamaica, these singles have been carefully restored and remastered, preserving their raw, authentic energy for a new generation of Reggae lovers.
With the authorization of the Gladiators, St Elizabeth, Jamaica
