This one cost me blood, sweat and tears... Spent the entire weekend scanning, recording, fighting against technology to provide you one of my best all-round sales lists to date. Had three hours sleep since Friday morning but I hope you guys enjoy browsing through the fruit of my labour.
The result is an across the board selection with a lot of modern soul dancers and funk 45s, but also some northern rarities, deep soul obscurities and popcorn shufflers.
This is part one of three parts I'll be putting online today. It'll be a few hours before I get everything online, but it'll be worth the wait with tunes coming up by A.C. Poston, Don Gardner, Spectron 7, Sherlock Holmes, The Blossoms, Jimmy Conwell, Eddie Bo, Camille Bob, Otis Blackwell, Wade Flemons and MANY more.
And now down to business: Shipping for any number of records to anywhere in the world is £5. I'll cover paypal costs, but I'd appreciate if the paypal payment is sent as gift.
If interested PM. If there's any questions regarding a record in the list don't hesitate to ask. I'll be busy uploading parts 2 and 3, so might not be able to answer PMs immediately, but first member who PMs about a certain record gets it.
