Ola V Harper  -  I Wanna Weep/ Resisting (Jewel)  (EX++)  £30

Bluesy, dark end funky-ish winner here. 

Hear

 

Levert Allison  -  Sugar Daddy/ You Made A World (Elbejay)  (M-)  £40

One of those 'hmm…this sounds pretty decent again' - give it a spin

Hear

 

Getto Kitty  -  Stand Up And Be Counted/ Hope For The Future (Stroud)  (EX)  £50

Sublime socio-conscious 70s 'rare groove' bomb. 

Hear

 

Moonlighters  -  Funky Moon Meditation/ The Masquerade Is Over (Blue Eagle)  (M-)  £60

Psych-edged roughed up funk - have you noticed it doesn't actually clearly state the artist!?

Hear

 

Bobby Williams & His Mar-Kings -  Let's Jam/ You're My Baby (Normar)  (EX+)  £60

Bobby doing his best JB impersonation. It was probably hard to resist the aural lure of the godfather at the time. 

Hear

 

Gwen McCrae  -  All This Love That I'm Giving/ Maybe I'll Find Somebody New (Cat)  (M-)  £75

Super clean copy of this evergreen rare groove destroyer

Hear

 

9th Creation  -  Much Too Much/ Got My Baby Back (Hilltak)  (M-)  £75

For me, their best. The same both sides demo are easy, the issue with the killer 70s funky soul 'Much Too Much' are trickier to find. 

Hear

 

The Organics  -  Foot Stumping/ Good Thing Going (Compose)  (M-)  £125

Always a tough record to find, even more so in such a minty presentation as this here copy. Thumper!

Hear

 

Barbara Trent  -  Heart Break Hotel/ The Man I Love (Red Label)  (M-)  £150

Two cover versions on what was probably Bab's last attempt at music industry fame: what a smasher of a take on 'The Pelvis's' classic.

Hear

 

Bobby Williams & His Mar-Kings -  Let's Work A While/ You're A Foolish Fool (Normar)  (M-)  £150

His most indemand: proper 'deep funk' stuff

Hear
