Hi again folks................only 30-odd items here but some absolute belters...Everything has a soundclip and a scan-all directly underneath the item. Couldn't fit all of the items into one post so are spread across 2 posts directly after each another. Just get in touch via PM or mail@resolutionrecords.co.uk thx Mark Rez
Esther Phillips 'Catch Me, I'm Falling' / A Woman Will Do No Wrong' (Atlantic / M-) USA - 1960s £30
( Marvellous Northern from a then-young Ms Phillips...looks unplayed......
Deon Jackson 'Ooh Baby' / 'All On A Sunny Day' (Atlantic / VG+) UK - 1960s £40
( Two great Northern sides from golden-voiced Deon - one uptempo and one midtempo - so good to be able to offer this on UK too - few marks / scuffs on vinyl and sticker 'removal' mark on 'Ooh Baby' side but still in great shape...red label pressing )
Simon Barbee and the Barbabes 'Showdown Pts 1 & 2' (Bar Bee / M-) USA - 1960s £125
( Ultra rare Dave Hamilton production outta the T.C.B studio of Detroit, Michigan, Killer Beat-esque, Mod-fuelled Funk with with spacey Moog and a groove that's impossible to deny. Made over $200 the one and only time it was listed on eBay...!! Lovely, lazy flutes here too - all of the ingredients that I love... )
Leroy Lloyd & The Swinging Dukes 'Party Time' / The James Brown Boogaloo' (Carol / Ex) USA - 1977 £100
(Great rare & still only semi-known uptempo Funk meets Boogaloo Double Header, Finewine plays this on his radio shows and it rarely shows up for sale... )
Bill Caffie 'I Am Mr. Big Stuff' (Cin-Town / VG+) USA - 1972 £40
( Obscure Male Voxed Beat Heavy Funk version of Jean Knight's 'Mr. Big Stuff' ssmash - Rare '45 outta Cincinati and one I have never seen before...simply has to be rare? )
C.R.A.C. 'Of The Lites' / 'Eleanor Rigby' (C.R.A.C. / VG+) USA - 1960s £75
( Very rare, synth laden psychedelic-funk double header with a strong nod towards the Deep Heat version of Steely Dan's 'Do It Again' on the Cu-Wu label, another 45 of theirs sold at auction for $270+...Rare band and label and a 7" I have NEVER seen before? Killer synths - absolutely belting 45... )
The Wanderers 'Somebody Else's Sweetheart' / 'She Wears My Ring' (CUB / VG) USA - 1960s £40
( Not pretty to look at but plays through absolutely fine - top drawer Beat Ballad version of the Bacharach / David cut - as produced by Teacho Wiltshire - labels are a bit grubby too - extra label scan/s can be provided on request...Ray Pollard on lead vocals here, of course... )
( Never, ever seen this before?? Few nice Afro 45s this List and I believe this to be very tough? Can't find out much about it but I suspect it's taken from the rare LP which I believe to be Swiss-only? Superb Afro-Funk with loadsa effects and great drums - recommended - dinked middle but otherwise very clean... )
Dee Dee Sharp 'What Kind Of Lady' (Gamble / M-) USA - 1969 £75
( Again - superlative condition here - I really, really believe this record has been played less than 5 times? 'Playing cards' label copy too - one of THE biggest oldies around... )
Little Mary Staten 'Steppin' Stone' / 'Helpless Girl' (GME / M-) USA - 1960s £100
( Hard one to pigeon-hole - more Soul than Funk really but sounds so, so good - call it what you like - it's a class double-sider - pure and simple - totally, totally clean copy - a heartbreaker... )
Steven Olisa Amelchi 'Afro Baby' (Philips / Ex) Africa - 1970s £90
( Amazing Afro '45 and the tune used for the lead title of the immense Soundway compilation from a few years back, slight label damage but all text legible...complete killer piece...so rare!! )

Jackie Wilson 'It Only Happens When I Look At You' / 'Just As Soon...' (Brunswick / Ex+) UK - 1977 £75
