Clarence Townsend “I Found A Love” (Clara) VG sold

Killer northern that fits perfectly into crossover and even funk sets too, and sounds tremendous out loud. I got £1000 for a copy in only very marginally better condition last year. Very light label wear, still looks ok - and it plays amazingly for the grade. Dish not affecting play, in favour of the good side.

Lafez “No Matter” (MJW) strong EX sold

Totally obscure crossover / northern dancer from Ohio, probably from the early ‘70s. Upfront DJs take note! Mid-paced ballad flip.

The Memphians “Breakdown / South Memphis” (Plush) strong EX £200

Excellent deep funk rarity, which hasn’t shown up much over the years. X’s on label (“South Memphis” side only).

Buddy Cantrell “You Ain’t No Good” (Tuska) strong VG offers

This Atlanta label certainly came up with some serious bangers, and this is amongst the rarest & heaviest. Wow! Plays great. Slight light not affecting play, and small wol on flip. Current offer £750.

Las Vegas Connection “Give Me Your Love / Dancing With My Love Bones” (Hep’ Me) M- £50

Two modern dancers from NOLA. Plays a little off centre, doesn’t seem to affect the sound at all though.

Lafez “No Matter” (MJW)

 

Id love to see a scan of this 45, is it a red label,does the label have any connection to  'Patience Valentine - Our Love (A special Blending)' MJR by any chance?
