This live recording from the famed festival by Lake Geneva qualifies as one of the piano trio classics of the 1970s as well as a milestone in the Jamaican pianist's catalogue. The 1976 album captures the moment in Alexander's young career when he began to be compared to such giants as Oscar Peterson. Monty's play combines the proficiency of his Canadian colleague with the feel of the Caribbean and a touch of gospel. Bassist John Clayton and drummer Jeff Hamilton form a sympathetic, cohesive rhythm section, and their clear-cut, penetrating solos are outstanding. The show captivated the audience from the first piece, an Ahmad Jamal composition that Alexander played with inspired blues variations, on through the soulful contemplations in "Feelings". There is an exuberance to the swing on the Ellington piece "Satin Doll", whereas the classic blues "Drown in My Own Tears" is played with sublime, gospel-tinged gravity. An archaic Afro-atmosphere permeates "Work Song", as Clayton shows off his virtuoso talents. With its whimsical, infectious dramaturgy, "Battle Hymn of the Republic" stands out as a classic. After four and a half decades the infectious magic of that night in Montreux remains alive and palpable.

plum blossom (revisited) is a collection of songs from mxmtoon's latest EP and a first-ever pressing of all the songs from her first EP, plum blossom. While Maia is only 23, the amount of growth in the five years since plum blossom debuted is unmeasurable. She came out as queer, moved to Brooklyn, and took a year off when her grandmother, a visual artist who has inspired Maia throughout her life and encouraged her music career, died of cancer. In the aftermath of enormous loss, and in the midst of another close family member’s illness, Maia found a sense of wholeness by reimagining the music that made her. “My mom really loves my early music, so in a sense, I did this for her as much as I did it for me,” Maia says. This is the first time plum blossom will ever be released on vinyl, featuring an alternate cover exclusive for Record Store Day 2024.

Noctorum is a collaboration between guitarist/singer-songwriter Marty Willson-Piper (The Church, The Saints, All About Eve) and producer Dare Mason. Dare and Marty grew up together on the Wirral, near Liverpool, listening to classic ‘60s pop singles, Singer-Songwriters, Krautrock, Spacerock, Prog, Art Rock, New Wave, Punk, Funk, Glam Rock, Heavy Rock, Reggae and Soul – probably the reason for their diverse and eclectic sound. Moving to Australia in the early ‘80s, Marty joined The Church and then in the early ‘90s All About Eve, while Dare concentrated on becoming an engineer and producer, working at the renowned Townhouse Studios in London, before founding the VIP Lounge studio in Penzance, Cornwall.
In the early noughties Dare and Marty formed Noctorum and in 2003 they released their first album on Heyday Records, Sparks Lane (RSD 2021) . Before their second album, Marty joined The Saints and in 2006 Heyday released Offer The Light (RSD 2023). Their third album Honey Mink Forever was released 2011 and has never been released on vinyl.
The album features some really beautiful guitar tones throughout with Marty’s playing varying from soft and sensitive to rip-roaring full on lead. The album concludes with a giant jump into Jazz as two worlds meet with local Jazz players doing their thing while Marty adds a left-wing rock guitar element making this an interesting hybrid. The cover art is a photograph of the artifacts window in the physical In Deep Music Archive and arguably the coolest album cover of the band’s catalog.

“The most hypnotic piece of music released in 2023 was recorded forty-seven years ago.” – NY Review of Books
This limited-edition Japanese radio edit single of “Harvest Time / Love Will Find a Way” is a complement to Pharoah Sanders’ seminal album from 1977, Pharoah, which was re-released by Luaka Bop in fall 2023 for the first time since its original pressing, in a deluxe 2 LP box set.
At times ambient and serene, at others funky and modal, Pharoah has long been a holy grail for collectors, seen as one of the artist’s most beloved records and one of the great works of the 20th century. Released after forty-five years, with Pharoah’s blessing, MOJO (★★★★★) called it “an ethereal masterpiece,” Pitchfork (8.9) deemed it “unearthly magic,” and The New York Times (Critics Pick) said that Pharoah “beckoned the Gods on the intimate Pharoah.”
Included here are two unreleased radio edits of “Harvest Time” and “Love Will Find a Way”—packaged in a limited, eye-catching Japanese sleeve exclusively for Record Store Day. On Black Power Black Vinyl.

With her debut album, All Hail The Queen, Queen Latifah asserted that women would not be hip-hop novelties and established herself as one of the genre’s most influential artists. Two years later, in September 1991, she returned with her sophomore album, Nature of a Sistah, a positivity-dominant, cross-genre dabbling set of R&B, dance, funk, and reggae that tested the limits of hip-hop.
The majority of the production on Nature of a Sistah is done by Soulpower Productions. Accompanying them on the production side are Naughty By Nature, K-Cut from Main Source, Luis Vega, and Nevelle Hodge. Together, they wove a follow-up that would widen a path for both Latifah and her successors to come.
This release features "Fly Girl," "How Do I Love Thee," and "Latifah's Had It Up 2 Here."

*limited to 1200 copies pressed on transparent cherry vinyl
*old school, tip-on jacket
*includes the original recording of RICHARD TUCKER'S song, Are you Leaving For The Country, which was covered by KAREN DALTON on her 1971 LP, In My Own Time
*includes the only song RICHARD TUCKER and KAREN DALTON wrote together; "Sleeping In The Garden"

"For a few years in the late sixties and early seventies Richard Cam & Bert ruled MacDougal St. walking a fine line between the increasingly commercialized demands created by groups like Crosby Stills and Nash and the fierce integrity of earlier folk performers, the generation to which Richard belonged. They managed this with great aplomb, producing original tunes of great integrity and obvious folkloric origins, as well as those which expressed the anarchic omnipresent psychedelia of the moment. They also never abandoned the idea of including some traditional material in their performances. But for the usual random application of luck they could have been very big." --Grungie O’Muck / Artist, Bluesman, Cover artist for their first album and contributor to this one.


Richard Tucker, Campbell Bruce, and Bert Lee coalesced as a trio in the spring of 1968, and by the end of that year had become regular performers at fabled Greenwich Village nightspots - The Gaslight, The Bag I’m In, Cafe Feenjon, The Underground, and The Olive Tree, among others.  But mostly they were street singers, busking regularly in Central Park. Their only LP, Limited Edition, was released in 1970, and sold only at gigs and on the street. Original copies of the album are now rare collectibles (the LP was reissued digitally in 2014).  

Somewhere in The Stars compiles some of the band’s earlier, previously unreleased recordings, when all three members were signed with Peer-Southern Music Publishers as writers and began using their recording studio to make demos and experiment musically.  Beautifully recorded by house engineer Charlie Mack, and supervised by Jimmy Ienner, who’d signed them to Peer-Southern, the demos capture a back-room casualness and rustic, homespun quality that is as welcoming as it is timeless.  Some of the songs were re-recorded the following year for Limited Edition, but many are heard here for the first time.  Among them is the original demo for Richard Tucker's song, “Are You Leaving For The Country,” which Karen Dalton covered on her seminal 1971 release, In My Own Time.  Richard and Karen were husband and wife for much of the 1960s, performing as a duo (initially as a trio with Tim Hardin), and navigating their time on the Village scene while alternating living in a small gold mining town outside Boulder, Co. before splitting up in 1967. 

Also making its debut is the only song Richard and Karen ever wrote together, the haunting “Sleeping In The Garden.” Although Karen Dalton wrote poetry and prose, she did not consider herself a songwriter, but the lyric, “If you keep sleeping until the end, you'll have to dream it all over again" evokes pure Karen.  Somewhere In The Stars also contains two songs by Cam (“One Of These First Nights” and “Stockholm”) that weren't included on their album, but were staples of their live performances, as noted in a gig review by The New York Times, and in a column by future A&R hero Karin Berg, who was an early champion.  Another rarity on this album is the only cover of “Sweet Mama” by Fred Neil we’ve ever heard. 

Campbell Bruce came to New York in 1967 as lead singer with a band from Washington, DC, The Natty Bumpo.  They’d recently signed a record deal with Phillips, but were falling apart.  Cam landed in the Village with an acoustic guitar and first started playing and singing in the basket houses, and shortly thereafter at The Gaslight, as the "Cam Bruce Trio” (which included Collin Walcott).  After opening for Mose Allison, Cam's hero, the trio went their separate ways, and Cam returned to regular solo gigs at The Flamenco, and the basket houses on Bleecker.  Richard and Cam met up on that scene and quickly found a musical kinship as well as becoming best pals.  

Bert Lee arrived in New York as a runaway the following winter, and began playing and sleeping wherever he could.  His sometime accompanist, Ron Price, introduced Bert to Richard and Cam just as Bert’s own songs were garnering attention from publishers.  According to Bert, “I arrived on the New York scene during a time of great change, and it was the notion of change that influenced me.  All around me I saw there were two sorts of songwriters, on the one hand dedicated to the traditions that had inspired them, folk, jazz, the American songbook.  On the other hand were songwriters influenced by the wave of experimentation that The Beatles were the perfect example of.  Mixing genres, writing lyrics that weren't just about ordinary love and loss.

Richard Tucker was a country blues player, with a relaxed and melodic approach to the craft.  Cam wrote something more akin to soul songs, with a hint of jazz in the changes.  I was writing tunes that sometimes drew on classical structures with a tendency toward what I suppose would be known as prog-rock.  But I was rather adamant about not being pinned down stylistically, and so I would write, for example, a song based on some complex classical chord structure, and then go right ahead and write a simple folk song, like “Evelyn”. Our band was popular locally, and it was this variety that made it distinct.”

One of the group’s biggest fans was the late Kate McGarrigle, who in 2009 shared a hilarious story with Delmore about playing their LP incessantly in the mid / late 1970s, often until a very young Martha and Rufus pleaded with her in unison to “play anything but Richard Cam and Bert!”

"Richard, Cam & Bert seem to have grasped The Great Harmony. That is, ensemble singing that is at once sweet, precise, funky and a bit sardonic - as country things should be"
-Mike Jahn / New York Times  

"The trio's singing, playing, and writing have all withstood the test of time. Believe me, because I was there. In 1969 R,C&B, myself, Charles John Quarto, David Bromberg, Ron Price, and Keith Sykes were just a few of that year's crop of song-slingers. We were young turks back then, out on the prowl in New York's Greenwich Village for record deals, gigs, and beautiful young women to sleep with and maybe even write a song about. I've lost the names and numbers of those lovelies and I'm not sure what happened to Ron Price, but Richard, Cam, and Bert are back! - Loudon Wainwright lll


Delmore is excited to present this unearthed treasure, fifteen years in the making.  In the words of Richard Tucker, "Tap on your knee, roll on the floor; if you aint free, what's it all for?"

Coalmine Reissues is pleased to announce this special edition reissue of Royal Flush’s time-honored debut LP, Ghetto Millionaire, marking just the second time that the vinyl has ever been repressed.
Royal Flush first jumped on the scene as a part of New York’s burgeoning Queensboro hip-hop scene of the mid-’90s. Coming up under the wings of Mic Geronimo as part of the infamous Wastlanz crew, Flush shadowed Geronimo on over half of the album cuts featured throughout Geronimo’s The Natural, creating a memorable one-two punch akin to Ghostface Killah’s heavy presence on Raekwon’s Only Built 4 Cuban Linx.
Flush’s solo debut Ghetto Millionaire hit in August of 1997 and perfectly captures the mid-to-late ‘90s sound of East Coast street rap with a notable production roster that boasts Da Beatminerz, L.E.S., Buckwild, Hi-Tek and Chyskillz among others. Ghetto Millionaire is a memorable trip to the latter half of the Golden Era, abound with Flush’s crime-ridden world of hardcore street rap that’s backed by a first-rate soundscape.
Ghetto Millionaire is set for a Record Store Day 2024 reissue on baby blue and black galaxy colored vinyl

Ellensburg, Washington is known for the world’s 3rd largest three-day rodeo, 90’s NFL legends Brian Habib and Drew Bledsoe and as the hometown of seminal Northwest band Screaming Trees. In the late 80’s, Ellensburg residents were often confronted with the strangely primitive sounds of the band emanating from their headquarters in the back room of the Conner family’s Main Street store, New World Video. Here was the scene of creation of songs from the band’s early Velvetone and SST albums. During this prolific time, much of the band’s music never made it beyond their own ears but was fortunately captured on Gary Lee Conner’s 4 track cassette recorder. Those cassettes have survived, intact, down to this day and have now made their way to this recording. So now, transport yourself back to New World Video, in late 80’s Ellensburg, and hear the weird things happening.
