Rare Stuff! Tobbi Bowe, Jame Bell, Phillip Wright, Charades, Johnny Truitt,

Posted December 29, 201113 yr

Small list of top dancefloor fillers combined with a few unsolds from my last list.

Shipping for any number of records to anywhere in the world is £5.

If you want to buy a tune, hear a soundfile of the flipside or want a better description of condition PM or mail to diggindave (at) hotmail (dot) com. First person who PM's or mails gets it.

Got some more stuff on my eBay page: https://stores.ebay.com/Diggin-Dave-45s

I've reduced a lot of the 45s in my store so there's a few bargains to be had. I can combine with online sales too to save on shipping.

Tobbi Bowe - I can feel him slipping away / Groovy feeling - Patheway 103

Despised by some, loved by others but always been a bugger to find. A few small marks, plays excellent.

Bobby Strickland - After all I'm still in love with you / The girl that I love - Brother Love

Atlanta, Georgia dancer with a sought-after deep flip. Visually VG and flipside plays with background noise but 'After all'-side plays above grade.

£100

Soulations - Come on that's love baby / Will you be mine - Cei 126

Largely unknown uptempo blue-eyed dancer with a quality deep flip. Looks very clean apart from a very slight warp not affecting play at all.

Intensive Heat - Keep an eye on your close friend / Intensive heat - Soul Mate 001

Quality private sweet soul 45 with funky flip. Looks barely played but plays with a bit of crackle in places due to the pressing.

£80

Shirley Lawson - So much to me / Sad sad day - Enterprise 5040

Two highly recommended sides for the price of one. Scuffy surface bit plays a lot better than it looks.

Wade Bros Cro-Shade Sounds - Hip breaker Pt I/II - Vanessa 483-17
