This page is for the record collector who grew up on James Brown and still buys tickets to Lettuce. Thirty-two funk and funk-adjacent titles, new and sealed, ready to go on the turntable.
The selection runs deep. Pigeons Playing Ping Pong's Live at The Capitol Theatre arrives as a 4xLP set on Relix Vinyl. Lettuce contributes two titles: Live In Amsterdam on a 2xLP and Cook, also a 2xLP, both on Lettuce Records. The New Mastersounds account for a substantial portion of the shelf, including Live At Cervantes, Vol. 2 and Live at Cervantes, Vol. 1 on Color Red, the double LP The Deplar Effect, and Keb Darge Presents: The New Mastersounds. Soulive's Flowers is here on LP as well. Khruangbin fills out the contemporary end of things with A La Sala, Con Todo El Mundo, the Texas Sun EP, the Texas Moon EP, Live at The Fillmore Miami: Florida Edition, and Live at Radio City Music Hall: New York Edition, all on Dead Oceans. Pigeons Playing Ping Pong's Day In Time is pressed in Black Galaxy vinyl. The Breaks rounds out the page on Color Red.
Why buy from Relix
Relix has covered the Grateful Dead, Phish, and the broader jam and roots world since 1974. That history shapes how titles get chosen for this store: the artists here are ones the magazine has followed across decades of issues, interviews, and live coverage, not acts pulled from an algorithm. The store also carries the Relix Sessions series, live recordings produced by Relix and pressed to vinyl on the Relix Vinyl label, which is where the Pigeons Playing Ping Pong Capitol Theatre set originates. When a funk or groove record matters to this audience, it tends to end up here.
All records are new and sealed. Pre-order titles display a street date on the product page and ship when the label releases them. Vinyl ships in protective packaging designed for LPs.
To keep browsing, the Vinyl LPs collection covers the full catalog across genres. Funk, Soul and R&B Vinyl Records goes further into that corner of the store. Jam Band Vinyl Records covers the live and improvisational side where funk and jam overlap. And New Releases and Pre-Orders is the place to watch for what is coming next.
