About this product

Betty Davis was a musical maverick with vision. Image, substance, S*x, and grit combined with a badass band that could deliver the funk bed backbone to the sultry music between the sheets. After cutting two notorious discs for the Just Sunshine tag (_Betty Davis_ and _They Say I'm Different_), and _Nasty Gal_ for Island Records, Davis went to work on her most personal and expressive record yet. After capturing 10 hard-hitting tracks in 1976 at the remote Studio In The Country (Louisiana), a creative difference with her then tag caused the platter to be unexpectedly shelved. Davis would cut one final album and soon retreat from the music business, completely disappearing from the public eye. _Is It Love Or Desire_ is a little-known gem in the Davis catalog. Mastered from the original tapes, and untouched for over 30 years, this features detailed liner notes, the originally intended artwork housed in a lavishly packaged digipak, rare photos, archival material, and recent interviews with Davis and her skin-tight band Funk House. Never bootlegged, never released, never heard until now, the secret story of this lost album will finally enter the history books and cement this bold soul sisters contributions to music and popular culture. It's time to get down... Long live Betty Davis!

Biffy Clyro - Only Revolutions   - VINYL LP

2009 , the fifth album from the Scottish Progressive Indie rockers. Here, they forgo the overt commercialism of Puzzle in favor of a return to their classic style welding Emo style structures to technically complex math- and jazzcore elements. Named for the novel by Mark Danielewski, produced once again by Garth Richardson (Gallows) and with striking cover artwork shot by the legendary Storm Thorgerson, the album includes the singles 'Mountains', 'The Captain' and 'That Golden Rule'.

Ted Nugent - Tooth, Fang & Claw   - CASSETTES

Reissue of the vicious 1974 album from superstar guitarist Ted Nugent and his razor-sharp backing band, the Amboy Dukes! Nugent has never sounded as off-the-leash as he does here, releasing fiery riffs and solos that would pave the way for his meteoric solo career that would be launching just a few years later! Includes exclusive, detailed liner notes from celebrated rock journalist Dave Thompson!
