Sara K. – Hobo – Chesky Records 180G Vinyl LP
Seamlessly blending the acoustic rootsiness of folk with the harmonic subtlety of jazz, the earthy fire of the blues, and the confessional lyricism of singer/songwriter rock, Hobo is a 1997 award-winning album that showcases the genre blurring brilliance of Dallas singer-songwriter Sara K.
Alongside ten original numbers – including the poignant ‘Moving Big Picture’ and the gorgeously meditative title track – Sara K. covers Rodgers & Hammerstein’s perennial show tune favorite ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone,’ and a surprising revamp of ‘Brick House,’ ‘The Commodores’ ’70s funk classic. A stunning showcase for Sara K’s unique artistry.
This audiophile classic is reissued on 180gram One Step Pressing LP

Now in Stock
“This is an absolutely mesmerizing Vaughan performance of 20 smartly chosen and sequenced tunes — some standards in 1969 and some then new and now standards — intimately mic’d that puts her startlingly and transparently in front of you between the speakers. ,,, the credits (read) cut by Kevin Gray using the original master tapes, lacquers processed at QRP and pressed in Germany on 180-gram vinyl. And that’s how it sounds! Highly recommended.” — Music = 10/11; Sound = 9/11 — Michael Fremer
Shakey Jake – Mouth Harp Blues – Analogue Productions 45RPM 180g 2 LP Vinyl
The late James Harris earned the moniker “Shakey Jake” due to his proficiency at dice, but he was equally adept at the blues game. The Arkansas-born, Chicago-based singer and harmonica blower traveled to Rudy Van Gelder’s New Jersey studio in November 1960 to record Mouth Harp Blues.. Jake brought along Jimmie Lee Robinson, the brilliant, fast-fingered guitarist best known for his work with Little Walter’s band. Also making tasty contributions to the session was Robert Banks, the New York R&B and gospel studio organist who, in this case, ably appointed himself as a two-fisted blues piano stylist. Among the 10 selections is the distinctively loping “Easy Baby,” a tune also associated with Jake’s nephew Magic Sam.
