I suppose she's right... "whats the point of all this old soul music when you need a new hip." So I've tucked away those I cant live without and will be offering the rest through this and other channels over the coming weeks, months, years. As a 'collector' not dealer these are [in all but a few cases] my only copies.

Having been caught out on several occasions by 'generous' graders, I've graded as accurately as possible and 'down-graded' if in doubt. Generally...

m- means only the slightest of marks if any;

ex means minor marks, soiled label, or slightly compromised sound quality;

vg+ has several marks to vinyl but plays fine, or looks ex but plays with some noise;

...I'll also describe to clarify and add scans/ sounds of particular 45s.

And to make things easy postage to UK addresses is included for orders over £20; under please add £1.

Overseas = add £2 for shipping to EC; add £4 for the rest of the world.

Some time soon I'll get around to my Uk45s and wave goodbye to TMG 511, WI 4027, PT 118, SS 2090, etc.

souledagepensioner@mac.com

I'll check emails and agree sales etc in the order they arrive.

Cheque or PayPal

I'm new to this selling game so please be patient and gentle.

i dont wish to appear rude but even if you manage to sell everything from this list it wouldnt pay for a hip operation...or is a mate doing it?

thanks for your concerned thoughts for my health. I reckon I've got a few months before my body completely disintegrates and my legs drop off. And I've got plenty of vinyl to dispose of in preparation.

maybe another glass of wine will help...
