Here is the Lp’s and cd’s gallery covers of soul, funk, jazz and blues albums, organized by alphabetical order (R letter on this page).
Obviously this not an exhaustive list but more or less the covers of albums I’ve been listening to throughout my life.
Overwhelmingly, these are albums recorded before the 80’s.
You’ll find releases of famous artists like Ray Charles, Rick James, Roberta Flack, Rose Royce, Roy Ayers, Roy Hargrove,.. as well as lesser known black music artists.
By clicking on a cover, you’ll get the image zoom including artist name and album title.
Enjoy the arts!
