DIG IN.....

( 1) 7″ singles - all genres:

Big Top 'Are You Mine' / 'What Can I Do' (5 O'Clock / USA / 1973 / M-) *£150*

REDUCED FROM £200!! Impossibly rare Breakbeat blue-eyed Funk double header that sold for $500 as an unknown a couple of years ago... Currently being played as a cover up by 'DJ Honky' - amazing 45.. )

Lloyd Price 'Three Little Pigs' (ABC-Paramount / USA / 1960s / VG) *£2*

REDUCED FROM £5!! Big personal fave - wonderful R&B and something that just sounds so great in a club - priced really low cos this copy is kinda rough - I'll clean it before I send it out - ok? )

Dynamic Corvettes 'Key To My Happiness Pts 1 & 2′ (Abet / USA / 1975 / M-) *£5*

( REDUCED FROM £10!! Oft-overlooked slab of ace funky / cosmic disco - sounds like Tommy Stewart on production chores here and Pt 2 sees the boys wig out nicely - recommended.... )

Terry Callier 'I Don't Want To See Myself (Without You' (Acid Jazz / UK / 2006 / M-) *£10*

( This became an INSTANT rare when it was released in 2006 - Eddie Piller only did a few copies and mosta them went immediately - this is the ONLY place you'll get this ace Modern Soul tune from TC on a 7″ - it never got a USA press on Erect 7″... )

Taylor La Veeck 'Beyond The Hurt' (AMG / USA / 1977 / Ex) *£25*

( REDUCED FROM £40!! Sublime male-voxed mid tempo Modern Soul out of Cincinnati that's impossible to deny - bit of scribble on label - nothing too bad... )

Brass Monkey feat. Fletcher Tomlin 'Party When I Can' / 'You Are Everything' (Appleray / USA / 1082 / M-) *£30*

( REDUCED FROM £50!! Another first-timer this List - again 2 great sides - topside is a slamming uptempo Disco / Boogie tune which is synth-driven and perfect for today's discerning dancefloors while the flip is a midtempo dancer with a nagging bassline and wonderful vox from Flora Wilson on both sides...actually, this side reminds me a lot of 'You Are My Star' by Maxi (remember that one?)....stupendous 45... )

Sam Lazar 'Camp Meetin' / 'I Ain't Mad At You' (Argo / USA / 1960s / Ex+) *£4*

( REDUCED FROM £8!! Ditto the previous tune - old, old Jazz Dance faves from right back in the day...unusual DJ copy here and there's a bit of h2o wear on the labels - nothing bad... )

Jack Montgomery 'Beauty Isn't Born' / 'Inst' (Austons / USA / 1970s / M-) *£75*

( REDUCED FROM £90!! RARE 45... Sublime mellow soul in a Terry Callier vein, instrumental flip is just right for the "after hours" session... Beautiful stuff...and a big recommendation for a discerning collector...rarer yellow press and stone mint, kids... )

Tony Sherman 'Slippin' Into Darkness' (BASF / Germany / 1970s / Ex+/Ex+) *£5*

( REDUCED FROM £10!! Always nice to be able to offer this - ever-popular - brilliant version of the War tune - pic bag and vinyl both in pretty good nick.....

Claudine Clark 'Party Lights' (Chancellor / USA / 1960s / VG) *£2*

( REDUCED FROM £5!! Scruffy copy here so letting it go cheap - lovely 'girlie' 60s Northern from a golden era- looks a lot worse than it sounds - actually just needs a clean.... )

Joe Tex 'I'm Going And Get It' (Dial / USA / 1960s / Ex) *£2*

( REDUCED FROM £5!! Raucous R&B from Joe here - good, good tune - sounds great up nice and loud.....slight warp here which doesn't affect play at all...and a few scuffs here and there - plays well above Ex grade... )

Chocolate + Joy 'Dog It' / 'Groove That Sexy Thing' (Disco Sex / USA / 1979 / M-) *£25*

( REDUCED FROM £40!! Totally obscure and D.I.Y. synth-driven Disco tracks here on a hoplessly obscure West Coast label - difficult to explain JUST how off-the-wall these cuts are - most people would just hate this and dismiss this out of hand but we know better here @ Resolution Records, right? )

Bobby Bland 'Keep On Loving Me' (Duke / USA / 1960s / Ex+) *£3*

( REDUCED FROM £6!! Nicely-paced midtempo R&B / Northern Soul from BB - great girlie backing too - lovely copy here... )

Effie Smith 'The Natural' / 'Harper Valley P.T.A. Gossip' (Eee Cee / USA / 1960s / M-) *£10*

( REDUCED FROM £20!! Two more good R&B sides - excellent femme vox and one side set at walking pace and the other definitely more uptempo - incredinly good condition considerin this record is getting on for 50 years old now... )

( REDUCED FROM £50!! Rare, rare, rare 70s Northern Soul dancer - my first-ever copy - has a few marks, scuffs and inaudible scratches on but actually plays more like an Ex...cracking dancer and actually extremely rare - this one's a promo too... )
