Hello!

Back with another mini-list of this weeks arrivals, plus the remainder of last weeks list are reduced at the bottom of the page. Please have confidence in my gradings, I describe everything as honestly and as accurately as is possible, there is no point in me saying a record is better than it is!

Cheers

Pete

In no particular order...

JACKYE OWENS - YOU'RE DOING SOMETHING AWFULLY GOOD - JACKLYN DEMO EX 25

Brilliant girlie stomper, Bert Keyes arranged

FREDDIE GORMAN - THE DAY WILL COME - MIRACLE VG- 30

Excellent early Motown dancer - looks rough, plays way better than my grade - books 75.00

ELLAINE & THE SHARDELLS - TELL ME THAT YOU CARE - MUSIC FORUM VG 25

This is ultra-obscure, it's an uptempo girl group sound, wouldn't say really Northern but if you like those early 60's girls you'll love this...can't find anything out about it whatsoever except it appeared on a compilation called Girls In The Garage Volume 6!

THE CARLETTS - I'M GETTING TIRED / LOST WITHOUT YOUR LOVE - CAPITOL EX sold

Never seen a copy of this - ever. Brilliant double sider. Books 200 quid.

JIMMY BEAUMONT - YOU GOT TOO MUCH GOING FOR YOU / I NEVER LOVVED HER ANYWAY - BANG M- sold

Practically new copy - awesome double sider - nice issue

THE PRESENT - MANYS THE SLIP - PHILIPS VG+ 25

Classic oldie - plays great

LIZA SMITH - I WANNA LOVE YOU - BIG TOP VG+ 20

Bought this blind as it's published by Vicki Music aka Duke Browner. It's an early 60's r&b dancer, big voiced lady.

LINDA & THE PRETENDERS - BELIEVE ME - ASSAULT VG++ 500

Beautiful girl vocal, possibly the first ever Shrine record in all but name. Slight edge warp not affecting play, otherwise a very strong VG++, and pressed on vinyl.

THE MOOD MOSAIC - A TOUCH OF VELVET A STING OF BRASS - CAPITOL EX- 20

Sounds strange but I didn't know this even came out in the US! Dated May 12th 1966.

DIAN JAMES - SOME KINDA WONDERFUL - GROOVE DEMO M- 20

Not the Soul Brothers Six number - this is a huge beat ballad.

DAVID RUFFIN - ONE OF THESE DAYS - ANNA VG 30

Very early Motown subsidiary...uptempo early dancer with nice group type flip

J.J. BARNES - THESE CHAINS OF LOVE - MICKAYS EX- 25

Nice early Detroit dancer, pink/black label, Mike Hanks production

GINA MARIE & THE SKAT KATS - SOURCE OF LOVE - SNAP EX- 25

Nice clip-clop girl group sound

LITTLE ROSE LITTLE - YOU'VE GOT THE LOVE - ROULETTE VG+ 20

Belting dancer

LINDA JONES - I JUST CAN'T LIVE MY LIFE - WARNER BROS VG 90

Looks rough plays absolutely superb, writing on label and a bit of wear but this is half price and a bargain - trust me, sound quality is superb

REDUCED STUFF FROM LAST LIST

THE PEPS - DETROIT MICHIGAN - D-TOWN G 20

Oh dear, a record which has never seen a sleeve in it's life - books at £100 to £150 - plays alright but obviously covered in small scratches, crackles etc

DONNIE CARL & THE DONNELLS - IT HAPPENED TO ME - TY TEX VG 15

Pretty good R&B ish dancer

JOSH WHITE JR - I CAN'T RUN AWAY - MERCURY DEMO EX 15

Have to admit both sides unknown to me and the guy is obviously a country singer - but good beat ballad one side and dancer on the other, in both price guides at £50 so what do I know

VAL MARTINEZ - SOMEONE'S GONNA CRY - RCA EX 30

This is the original early 60's version and it's brilliant! Can't believe nobody's bought this yet!

LYNN SOBEY - WHAT HAPPENED TO OUR LOVE / YOU'LL KNOW I'M AROUND - ABC DEMO

Two really nice late 60's sides M 15

SUE DARBY - CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF YOU BABY - ABC DEMO EX 10

Good version of The Toys

WANDA WILLIAMS - I'VE GOT A SECRET - FOREST GREEN VG++ 10

POSTAGE FOR RECORDS

£1.50 recorded delivery

£5.00 special delivery

Same prices for Europe

Elsewhere, 50p extra.

CREDIT CARD - CHEQUE - PAYPAL - CASH - POSTAL ORDER

I take 'em all.
