Rhythm 'n' Bluesin' By The Bayou: Nights Of Sin, Dirty Deals And Love Sick Souls 
Rhythm & Blues 
Various Artists (By the Bayou) 
CD £11.50 

A spicy mix of rarities, alternates and previously unissued R&B goodies from South Louisiana and S.E. Texas, where you are never too far from a bayou and some good rockin’ music. 

Celestial Blues 
70s Jazz

Progressive jazz from the 1970s, the music which has influenced Kamasi Washington and the Brainfeeder crew.

Pop 
Bob Lind 
CD £11.50 

The follow-up to “Finding You Again” (2012) features eleven new Bob Lind compositions and a surprising take on the Tom Paxton classic ‘Bottle of Wine’.

Machine Gun Etiquette 
Punk Rock 
The Damned 
LP £12.05 

The Damned didn’t care about definitions, which is why their classic second album sounds as fresh now as it did in 1979. Available again on vinyl. 

The Black Album 
Punk Rock 
The Damned 
LP £15.60 

“The Black Album” was ambitious, even more so than its multi-faceted predecessor, “Machine Gun Etiquette”. Reviewing the new album, weekly music paper the NME pointed to a Terry Riley influence. Syd Barrett and the Beach Boys were name-checked in Sounds’ review. Thinking of the Damned as a punk rock band was no longer possible. Available again on LP. 

Dreams All Come True 
60s Soul 
Jeanette Jones 
LP £17.80 

Jeanette Jones is one of the great unsung belters of 60s soul. Here are the complete recordings of this enigmatic San Francisco singer pressed on 180g white vinyl.
