Mister Fish Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 (edited) FINAL REDUCTIONS ON THOSE LEFT! Please note we cannot hold any records. First to pay gets it! Some very rare 70's, some crucial Crossover and mighty Funk stompers for your scrutiny this month. All sound files are taken from the actual 45's for sale. We hope you find something interesting. Best, Steve & Co. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PayPal as a 'gift' or bank transfer preferred. Shipping: £2 UK £4 Europe £5 USA ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BLACK SMOKE BAND - I'LL KEEP SEARCHING / GET'N OFF (BLACK SMOKE PRODUCTIONS) FAIR £BIDS Probably only 2 other copies of this 45 known. One over here and one in the States. Last copy in VG condition sold for £1500. This one has no doubt spent a great deal of it's life un-sleeved but still plays good and strong. There are lots of fine scratches but nothing feelable or deep, no loud pops or clicks. I have played this out and it sounds magnificent. Truly remarkable find. Looking at offers over £600 https://www.divshare....ad/17494586-7c4 FAME - CHANGE (PGC) M- £550 525 Sticking with the ultra-rare 70's is this Butch discovery and ex c/up. Probably only a couple of handful copies of this tiny, private press, stormer around. A recent copy sold for £800! So here's a chance to obtain at a more realistic price. Has an edge warp, does not affect play. https://www.divshare....ad/17455940-214 JIMMY JAMES THOMAS - I CAN'T DANCE (CINN-SOUND) EX £380 SOLD Dance floor killer funky dancer from '68.
