Its Ken Nordine! Instead of giving my two cents…I’ll just quote Ken on himself.  “Imagine the imagination as a jazz instrument wailing words, verbal riffs that swing from images to ideas to images……It’s also out loud daydreaming that may be of interest to psychiatrists, amateur, or otherwise…..”20130113-144936.jpg

Accessorize it.

Zeppelin, Pass the Bitches Brew

Miles Davis’ first Gold Record, Bitches Brew.  This is an original Columbia Label, double album, with slight wear on the cover (but both records in great shape).  A trend breaking record for Davis and Jazz alike, “Miles Runs the Voodoo Down” sums up Davis’ transition with this album from a chill Jazz musician, to an aggressive, and often explosive improviser.  $4420121126-144105.jpg

All Things Must Pass, Harrison’s first release after the Beatles, is also the first solo artist, triple release vinyl.  Featuring two formal LP’s and a third loaded with informal jams titled Apple Jam,  Harrison  once stated: “I didn’t have many tunes on Beatles records, so doing an album like All Things Must Pass was like going to the bathroom and letting it out.”  This is a very rare Promo Copy, with promo holes still in the Poster and sleeves, mint condition all the way around.  $99
