 | Destination Motherland: The Roy Ayers Anthology by Roy Ayers
Buy new: £8.98 / Used from: £7.22 A great Roy compilation, really good intro to his music
|
 | Rhythm of Life by James Mason
Buy new: £10.98 / Used from: £19.03 If you're already a fan of Roy, then you might be of James Mason as they did some work together. Powerful funk/jazz album in Roy's style.
|
 | The Very Best of Tarika Blue by Tarika Blue
Buy new: £12.99 / Used from: £10.73 James also appears on this album, an absolute steal at 3 pounds! Definately worth a go if you like Roy or James.
|
 | Rock Bottom by Robert Wyatt
Buy used from: £8.94 Such a lovely album, by a wonderful man.
|
 | In the Land of Grey and Pink by Caravan
Buy new: £6.58 / Used from: £4.43 Not jazzy, strictly folkish rock, but a great big slab of Englishness. Drinking cups of tea, fields, flutes and horns.
|
 | Hatfield and the North by Hatfield & The North
Buy new: £6.48 / Used from: £4.25 Any big Caravan fan won't need telling about this. Robert Wyatt makes an appearance. It's halfway between Wyatt solo and Caravan. SO English
|
 | Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division
Buy new: £6.78 / Used from: £4.49 I don't need to say to much about this, infact that's all I'll say.
|
 | Jane from Occupied Europe by Swell Maps
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £4.49 Not as entrenched in gloom as Joy Division. Some great tunes, like a cross between the above and Frans Ferdinand. I'm not a fan of the latter, but this album is great
|
 | 20 Jazz Funk Greats by Throbbing Gristle
Buy new: £6.98 / Used from: £5.50 Bit of a long shot. Pounding electronic beats, gloom etc. Beautiful in its way.
|
 | Musik Von Harmonia by Harmonia
Buy used from: £22.99 'Natural Kraut' is the liner notes label for this. Throbbing gristle latch on to that repetitive feel that Harmonia do brilliantly.
|
 | Get Up with It by Miles Davis
Buy used from: £6.99 It is jazzified, and if that's not your cup of tea, then veer clear, but it does similar long progressions as Kraut, searching within tunes for more tunes!
|
 | Black Unity by Pharoah Sanders
Buy new: £18.49 / Used from: £11.39 And if you like the long, searching tunes of Miles, you can't fail (in my opinion) to find something in Pharoah. He is SUPERB.
|
 | Black Woman by Sonny Sharrock
Buy used from: £29.99 Such a stupidly beautiful record; raw, powerful and full of real soul. Wailing voices a plenty, a progression of ideas put out by people like Pharoah.
|
 | Live At Fillmore East by Jimi Hendrix
Buy new: £9.98 / Used from: £6.42 If only for an appreciation of two brilliant guitarists, totally different, but inspired.
|
 | Game, Dames & Guitar Thangs by Eddie Hazel
Buy new: £11.98 / Used from: £6.50 Not a big leap at all, especially when you consider Eddie was set to do a set with Buddy Miles and Billy Cox in '72.
