sorry, can't do a scan

it's a 7" on yellow label - label is RAP

it's an odd record from the early 70s (not hip hop btw - the term rap was obviously more generic in the early 70s) - think it might have got some plays on northern scene in late 70s - probably mecca (or cleethorpes?) by the sound of it

i was surprised to see it on a us dealer's list for $150 cos - although it's cute - i'm amazed there's any demand for it

I acquired a copy for £10 on the latest Black Music fair in Kilburn. Realistic value is a bit more through - £30 to £50 I would say.

That's one damn awful sugar-coated vocal delivery on that tune. The backing is nice though, so I guess you could take the instrumental flip and record a decent vocal over it...

Its my Evelyn King cover up from the mid eighties

Sold a copy for around £25 about a year ago.

Wasn't too keen on it myself, and as usual saw it on a list for a ridiculous amount a few weeks later. Probably the same one mentioned above, Moerer's list I think. So still not sold

May be hard but with good reason imho

Bought it any a job lot off a Chicago collector.

Keeping to the rap theme, another was Spoilers rap by The Spoilers on Lock, which was far better. Funky soul, which grew on me

He's got 4 copies in stock at $150 each.
