Please use this search engine as a guide as we cannot always  guarantee the availability or price of a CD you may turn up from one of SPIN's hundreds of pages.

We at SPIN CD's can get our hands on virtually any CD that you want...of course we have our specialty areas, The DEAD, Psychedelia, New Country and any reissues however obscure, we have what you might call a MOJO profile. If you've read a review in Mojo, Uncut or the like, we'll have it in stock. We also trawl around the smaller labels and some 'Internet Only' outfits to stock hard-to get releases.  Everything that appears on this page is archived either below the logo at the top, or on the links down this side of the page. Thanks for visiting and thanks for your custom.

Blind Willie McTell  ~ The FacesThrobbing Gristle ~ ZZ Top  ~' Rubble' ~Mephis Belles ~Dave Swarbrick  ~Blind Lemon Jefferson ~ Pearls Before Swine/Tom Rapp ~ Brunning Sunflower Blues Band ~ Cecil Taylor

Cecil Taylor Feel Trio - '2 T's for A Lovely T'
Coming hugely recommended by 'The Wire' (best Jazz release of 2002) and The Guardian who had this to say: 
"This is where Cecil Taylor wound up over 30 years after the At Newport recording. He is playing here with a British virtuoso free-improviser and new-music percussionist with a rich jazz history (Tony Oxley), and the stormily formidable American bassist William Parker in an uncompromising spontaneous trio. These ten discs were recorded over a week of shows in London in 1990, The transparency of the sound enhances the differences of intensity and shape across these shows, though the set is intentionally a chronicle of the way a brilliant free-improvising ensemble works over a sustained period, rather than the interpretation of a repertoire. A very specialised item, certainly, but for Taylor disciples, and the more generally musically curious, it is breathtaking" 10 CDs £124.99

Brunning Sunflower Blues Band - 'Long Old Road'
- British blues rock from the early 70's (arkama:) "This blues band's recordings - here are 5 LPs in 3 CDs - are now pretty rare and, as you can see, the seminal duo of Brunning and Hall were assisted on them by some of the famous blues artists of the period. Peter Green, for example and Steve Rye from the Groundhogs" £34.99 includes Peter Green, Jo-Ann Kelly and Dave Kelly and rare 1972 London 'Hipshakin'' concert led by J. B. HuttoA Pearls Before Swine box set 'Jewels Were The Stars' should be released later this month on Water Records. According to this PBS web site the box should contain all 4 PBS Warner/Reprise albums: 'These Things Too', 'The Use Of Ashes', 'City Of Gold' and - 'Beautiful Lies You Could Live'. "The box will also contain a detailed 60 page book featuring tons of photos, posters and liner notes by Lenny Kaye, Savage Pencil, Byron Coley, Joe Phillips, Mitch Myers and interviews with Tom Rapp and Elisabeth. The set will also include 20 page books in each of the 4 CDs. It is unclear yet if the set will include any unreleased material" 
On the same site were details of WildCat Recording Company's plan to release some unique Pearls Before Swine material in 2003 (after the release on the box-set): 'Radio Pearls: Live on the Bob Fass Show, NYC 1971' and 'Tom Rapp Live At Yale University 1973'. The first album includes rare cover versions of classics by Leonard Cohen, Joni Mitchell and James Taylor, along with unique performances of Tom Rapp standards. The second set will be a Double CD. Price £44.99.

They were bound to be knockouts. From Dee Dee Warwick and Bessie Banks to Alvin Robinson and Roy Buchanan, everything on the label was dripping with the magic Leiber & Stoller had woven so well with previous chart-topping acts like the Coasters, the Drifters and the Clovers. The Daisy/Tiger Records Story features every single track released by Daisy and Tiger, all from the original master tapes, plus—for the first time ever—three previously unissued alternate versions.

"Gene Clark And The Gosdin Brothers", "The Fantastic Expedition of Dillard And Clark", "Sweetheart of the Rodeo" and the International Submarine Band's "Safe At Home" being perhaps the best known candidates behind all this however, are the experiments coming from the "Country" rather than the "Rock" Direction and "Nashville West" is one of the best of those A 1967 live recording of Clarence White's legendary group outside of their session-playing dayjobs at Bakersfield International studios. Featuring Clarence White Gene Parsons, Cajun fiddler Gib Guilbeau, and Wayne Moore....this is a record that should be owned by any fan of the Byrds, the Flying Burrito Brothers, Dillard & Clark and country rock music as a genre."

And, from the same part of town, Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks - 'Pig Lib', his second solo album. (from www.matadorrecords.com who have a free download mp3 of 'Oyster') "Pig Lib reaches out to ostracized Pavement fans from the get-go: "Water and a Seat" returns to the uniquely assured, yet unrestrainedly goofy swagger of Wowee Zowee, reincarnating those slinky 70s riffs, its chorus belted from swaying heels. Rolling Stone said his debut accomplished this, but, they're idiots and they're very wrong. "Ramp of Death"-- a mellower "Black Out" (from Wowee)-- cements that Malkmus is back in touch with what made Pavement great: the retiring, resigned ambivalence worn as a false mask by its privately melodramatic singer" Tracks: 1. Water And A Seat Listen, 2. Ramp Of Death, 3. (Do Not Feed The) Oyster, 4. Vanessa From Queens, 5. Sheet, 6. Animal Midnight, 7. Dark Wave 8. Witch Mountain Bridge 9.
