Arthur Lee - Vindicator
(1972, A&M)




Blues rock with some terrific guitar playing from Lee and Charles Karp

[SpeakerLabFan]

Albert King - The Big Blues
(1962, King) MONO




a surprising $3 find at HPB this week. VG+; plays nicely after a cleanup on the VPI.

[SpeakerLabFan]

Etta James - The Second Time Around
(1961, Argo) MONO




the record is VG with lots of visible light scratches but actually plays ok without much surface noise on the inner tracks. It's too bad this is a thin sounding recording and would much rather hear real R&B backing than the cheezy string arrangements but the nice & gritty Etta vocals are here. a recent 50cent pickup.

[SpeakerLabFan]

Aretha Franklin - I Never Loved A Man The Way I Love You
(1967, Atlantic)




Aretha puts everything into these tracks. 

[SpeakerLabFan]

Moby Grape - self titled

original issue with Don Stevenson giving the finger on the cover. One of the nicer records from all the incredible music released in 1967.

[SpeakerLabFan]

nice. I also have a red label elektra, shown in the last picture.
