Heading downstairs for this week's Used Vinyl Alert, we close out 2022 with a slew of timeless albums to add to your collection. We get things started with clean copies of all-time classic LPs from The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, David Bowie, Frank Zappa, Fleetwood Mac, Bob Dylan, Blondie, The Ventures, Queen, & Led Zeppelin, alongside others that don't come around too often, from Link Wray, Brian Eno, David Byrne, Richard Hell & Voidoids, Cowboy Junkies, Ozzy Osbourne, Buckingham & Nicks, and Lydia Lunch.
Soul is in this week from Otis Redding, Stevie Wonder, Sly & The Family Stone, Bar-Kays, S.O.S. Band, Eddie Kendricks, Roberta Flack, & Isaac Hayes, among others. Jazz & vocals are here from Horace Silver, Herbie Hancock, Doug Richardson, Dollar Brand, Ahmad Jamal, Miles Davis, Nina Simone, Billie Holliday & Ella Fitzgerald.
Country, blues, & folk gems are in from Guy Clark, Waylon Jennings, Dolly Parton, Patsy Cline, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Fenton Robinson, Curtis Jones, Robbie Basho, Tony Rice, John Prine, & Pete Seeger (along with a nice stash of Folkways LPs).
We round things out this week with some clean classical LPs, a healthy supply of soundtracks in top condition, reggae from Jimmy Cliff, Dennis Brown, & Bob Marley (and the great Rockers OST), along with a trove of international/folk LPs.
