Diggin Dave - August 2014 45s List 

It's that time again! A shiny new sales list filled with quality 45s for all you DJs and collectors out there. All the 45s come with scans and soundfiles of the actual records, so I hope you'll have fun with the list and maybe get to know some new sounds.  If you have questions about these records don't hesitate to ask. If you can't get enough of these, I've got some more in stock in my store: https://stores.ebay.com/Diggin-Dave-45s
 

SHIPPING is £5 to anywhere in the world, for any number of records from the list. Int'l signed for shipping is £10. 

GRADING: The grades I use are: M-, EX, VG+, VG, VG-, G etc. I'm a conservative grader, so the VG and VG+ records should look and sound pretty good, but with the soundfiles you can judge the sound quality yourself.

"The Apollas — You’re absolutely right / Lock me in your heart — Loma 2019 DJ Copy
Beautiful demo copy of this Detroit northern dancer, still underplayed after all those years.
Visual Grade: Strong VG+
£50"
Didn't know the Apollas recordings had any connection whatsoever with the city of Detroit ?

 

 

Tbh I don't think it's Detroit too and haven't got a clue why I put it in the description. I remember being pretty tired after 2 full days straight of doing photos and soundfiles and doing the descriptions at the very end when I was too wasted to do so  :shhh:
