Goin' Out Of My Head

2 all-time-soul-classic as an ultra-elusive Red & White DEMO!

This copy is so near perfect is hurts...in this format it is our first listing for at least 12 year but most probably nearer 20.

Tony Fox

The Beginning

The rarely seen New York album that includes that relentless 70s floor-destroyer "love let love and be loved"

But this LP is certainly no "one-trick-pony" album. THe 8 tracks also provide; Soulful ballads, strong Boogie + 2 more 70s dance tracks - but the ""love let love and be loved" is so far and away superior, we thought a 2 minute sample of that monster-tune would get you going.

This copy is "like new" in every respect.

Four Perfections

I'm Not Strong Enough

Santa - I'm so disappointed I missed out of that immaculate Patti & The Emblems on Kapp,I thought the Missus would dig deep and deprive the kids this Christmas to feed my habit of seeking out Rare Northern Soul Classics in flawless condition.

Perhaps your Elves or maybe Rudolph could shake her out of her Zombiesque tunnel vision for "Strictly Come Dancing" and realize that her long-term sometimes-faithful partner would be so darn delighted to received a pressie of calibre on Christmas Day - I promise if I do - not a another record packet, will ever come through our letterbox again!

I'll have all my purchases sent to my mates house... like most loving Northern Soul Husbands do.

A Love That's Real

We have sung the praises of the San Antonio, Texas 60s soul scene and Abe Epstein's contribution on several occasions, but that will not stop us raving about that era, the City or The Man yet again.

Today is another feel-good Abe creation, as he takes The Intruders - Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff song, injects that sunny Texas factor driven by Mexican influenced horns, transforming the super smooth Intruders version into a street-level by "The Canal" San Antonio Northern Soul stormer; with that all-important raw, primitive texture that makes all the Norther Soul great tunes stand-out!

If You like "smooth" flip it over for a harmony ballad of some quality.

Hank Carbo

Bad Luck

H C P = Hank Carbo Productions and how this man does produce!

In the last decade this huge chunk of L.A. Funk 45 has totally disappeared. So we are more than pleased to be able to offer this strong and rare Deep Funk groove in so near to perfect condition.

As the Northern Soul scene rolls on and on and now enjoying a revival of the meaty FUNKERS...this example has everything it takes to rise-up-big!

James Dockery

My Faith In You Is All Gone

DJ to you want to blow your audience way? Well prepare to be blasted out of your seat by an Arthur Monday production of Runaway-Truck proportions.

THIS IS NORTHERN SOUL! The soundfile says it all - the label scan speaks for itself.

This is the 1966 original version - not to be confused with the inferior "blue" label 1970 remix. So very seldom seen for sale - especially in unscathed condition, play perfect condition.

Art Wheeler And The Revels

Charlena

Looking for something different with instant punch, power and presence?

How about this seriously RARE 1965 Los Angeles R&B Northern Soul dancer from the man who gave the Northern Soul collector that fabulous classic style dancer 45 on Cee Jam "That's Why I Love You". This so-much rarer 45 pre-dates that highly regarded 45 by a year.

R&B DJ's for something "exclusive" fresh, brimming endless potential - look no further - we think this 45 has "it".

Good Rockin'

You are viewing a 1962 PROMO in the type of condition Northern Soul dreams are made of. Two totally flawless labels & vinyl to match. Absolutely never encountered the rigors of the Northern Soul DJ circuit. This 45 is one to treasure and admire

The First Cut Is The Deepest

One of the hardest tasks whilst stalking the Red N' Whites is snaring "THECLASSICS" so this week we thought list two absolute masterpieces of our music as Red & White Demo's would be more than interesting.

This example is former Ikette's debut British single, written by master-wordsmith Cat Stevens, arranged by the prolific Arthur Greenslade and produced by Immediate master Mike Hurst.

The soundfile reveals what happens when genius collides in the studio. Records are conceived that endure decades and decades of successive generations who can only describe recordings like this as timeless testament to "Black Music".

Listen and weep...

Marvin Gaye

Stubborn Kind Of Fellow

It's Marvin Gaye's 4th single and his first big USA hit - came to these shores for a brief outing on the coveted Oriole label and duly failed, mostly due to theBBC's reluctance to air "pop" music and "Motown" sound was still very "underground"

Rare it may be, but the deciding factor as an auction entrant hinged completely on it's eye-popping condition.

Vinyl is like new! one very light sleeve brush blemish, both labels arePERFECT! 48 years after it's British birth - this type of condition is what Motown Collecting Dreams are made of.

Freddie Gorman

The Day Will Come C/w Just For You

a totally flawless immaculate 1961 PROMO copy!

A hammond propelled mid-tempo Popcorn flavored groove, elevated by typically shrill Motown girl-group assistance. This is a beautifully constructed big vocal "Brain Bert" Northern Soul stroller, building magnificently when Brian Holland inspired addition of a string section, to join the totally divine Mr. Gorman's vocal.

For today's Northern Soul scene and it's penchant for outstanding vocals - this compelling rarity is dead-right for turntable action.

Stevens & Foster

I Want To Be Love

It's simple really, this record carries an that "X" factor that just gets the floor up and moving. It's RARE, memorable and so infectious. What more could yo want as a DJ or collector than an instantly explosive record that no one could ever tire of.

It's an awesome tune, with an enviable reputation, in just impeccable condition...

Sir Charles Hughes

You Say You're Leaving

An inspirational Funk infused New Yorker, currently picking up turntable action, as it perfectly fits what's happening on the Northern Soul circuit at the moment, as the funkier side of rare soul becomes the "in vogue" style. This 45 is the rare release of "Love Me Today" with the strong flip, usually seen without "You Say You're Leaving" on the "love Me Today" Sir Charles sets off in a totally different direction as he does an East Coast imitation of Barry White...interesting but it's the a-side that carries the punch to cram the dancefloor.

Gwen Davis

My Man Don't Think I Know

You cannot help but love this Allen Orange "Big Mama" R&B shaker!!

A mountain of brass tries to compete for pole position with the struttin' PMT-ignited vocal; a thumpin' piano, twangy Southern Fried Guitar work, all add to the session, the timely instrumental break brings a stroke of genius from producer Jonathan Richburg as he adds a "Gospel Choir" to the proceedings...let's face it a sugary girl-group chorus would have been swamped and lost by this Gal and her musicians.

Fantastic, full-on, foot-to-the-floor Northern Soul R&B.
