SOME ORIGINAL 45's FOR MONDAY

 

 

CROSSROADS - COMIN' HOME TO YOU BABY - ATCO DEMO                                                                       EX            20

Old cover up sound from the mid 80's, good dancer

 

 

TAWNY VON - LAST NIGHT (I FOUND THE BOY) - ENTRE                                                                             VG++      40

Girl group sound double sider, rated by some, production is too loud for me though. This one has some marks on the vinyl hence the grade but both sides play EX

 

 

VINCE CAREY - FIRST GLANCE ROMANCE - TURNTABLE                                                                               EX            10

Good dancer - probably too common to have ever made any waves

 

 

EUGENE CHURCH - DOLLAR BILL - WORLD PACIFIC DEMO                                                                          EX            20

Very fast dancer - swol

 

 

JIMMY CASTOR - BLOCK PARTY - JET SET DEMO                                                                                               EX            40

Good uptempo dancer with girl backing and honking sax accompaniment

 

 

FATS DOMINO - WORK MY WAY UP STEADY - BROADMOOR                                                                      EX            15

Cracking New Orleans dancer - nice midtempo flip too

                                                                       

 

THE DYNATONES - THE FIFE PIPER - HBR                                                                                                                              EX            10

Old, old oldie...harder West Coast styrene copy

 

 

JEAN DUSHON - AS I WATCH YOU WALK AWAY - CADET DEMO                                                                EX-           30

A superb midtempo dancer, great vocals - covered in the UK by Martha Smith on Pye, not a patch on this one. Has a couple of small non-sounding marks

 

 

DANELLE DARRIS - DON'T LOVE ME AND LEAVE ME - COMMERCE                                                        EX            50

Both sides of this are great.  Midtempo builder on side 1, and a belter on side 2 with Danelle jumping on the Junior Walker dance craze with "Let's Do The Shotgun" .  £100 elsewhere.

 

 

TROY DODDS - TRYIN' TO FIND MY BABY - BAYTOWN                                                                                  EX-           20

Really underrated Northern belter, frantic dancer on side 2 "Earthquake".     Few marks on B side.  Want a cheap but excellent gem, try this one, great stuff.

 

 

REGINALD DAY - LOST LOVE - MIDAS                                                                                                                       EX            25

It's never going to be packing ant dancefloors but this is a very soulful Chicago midtempo beauty

 

 

JOHNNY DAYE - I'LL KEEP ON LOVING YOU - BLUE STAR                                                                              EX            60

Excellent Stafford era dancer, once a very expensive record, settled down now that copies turned up but still £100 if you have a search on the net.

 

 

JAMIE - THE PRICELESS GEM - MGM DEMO                                                                                                           EX            20

I couldn't stand this when Alan Rhodes used to play it at Wigan, you know what, it actually sounds great now - in a blue eyed stomper kind of way

 

 

DEAN PARRIS - TELL HER - BOOM                                                                                                                              EX            25

The very best version of this classic Bert Russell song

 

 

THE CLASSIC SULLIVANS - SHAME, SHAME, SHAME - MASTER KEY                                                         VG++      125

Lovely Chicago crossover dancer.  Nothing wrong with this copy apart from a few light marks not affecting play - plays spot on.  I think in other hands this would be graded EX.  Bargain at the price.

 

 

BABY WASHINGTON - THAT'S HOW HEARTACHES ARE MADE - SUE                                                      EX-           20

Simply beautiful

 

 

LITTLE CARL CARLTON - COMPETITION AIN'T NOTHIN' - BACK BEAT                                                  EX-           20

Belting oldie. Plays mint.

 

 

ROBERTA WEBB & THE FAVORITES - MY MAMA SAYS - EMANUEL                                                          VG++ OFFS

This sounds a bit like a Huey Piano Smith sort of thing, maybe a bit later,  It's a female vocal with male interjections and goes along the lines of Mama Don't Like Us Doing The Twist Around Here, Mama Don't Like Is Doing The Monkey Round Here and so on. 
Just wondered if it's known and if so, any idea of value?  Have asked on various forums but nobody seems to have heard it.  Wouldn't class it as soul, definitely R & B, backing is almost rockabilly!  Vinyl plays great but label has some damage.
