Northern, Crossover and Modern Soul 45’s
Bill Coday – A man can’t be a man – Epic / EX / £200 (Classic modern soul dancer only available on the rare issue copies. Nice clean copy complete with company sleeve.)
Bobby King – If you don’t want my love – WB / EX / £160 (Major major label rarity here! Tucked away on the flipside of issue copies, thought to be an album only cut for long.Killer modern soul dancer.)
Turner Bros. – Let’s go fishing / Running in the rain – MB / EX / £165 (Lovely clean copy of this great double sider. One side ultra soulful crossover, one superb atmospheric instrumental dancer.)
Joe Valentine – I lost the only love I had – Val /EX / £100 (Classic crossover dancer! Dark red original copy. The deep soul flip is sadly pressed off centre and plays with a little wobbly sound, dancer side is centered and plays great.)
Violinaires – I’m not worried / Tell me how long – Jewel / EX / £85 (Popular soulful gospel soul dancer, flip is more of the same and equally good. Flipside has a few small stains.)
Ray Batts – Love me / Don’t take my dreams – Eales / EX / £60 (Real nice 1977 midtempo crossover. with flute and some great guitar play. Funky soul on the flip.)
Faith Band – Ridin high – Village / EX / £50 (Very obscure 1976 blue eyed Indianapolis dancer which reminds me of Force “Holy Moses”. Pen mark on flipside. The band also had a couple of albums but this track is 45 only and rare.)
Barbara Acklin – Am I the same girl – Brunswick / EX / £35 (Timeless classic that still sounds fresh and lovely. Clean copy complete with company sleeve, BB hole through label.)
Ronnie McNeir – It won’t be long (When we’re all gone) – Motown / EX / £35 (Another winner by this fab artist, this one is lesser known too and rare one found on the issues only. Vinyl copy.)
Les McCann – Sad little girl / Corey Glover – Little girl – White label / EX / £20 (Bootleg coupling LP only 60’s dancer and a 1998 CD album cut which sounds like Al Green. Large center.)
Garland Green – Come through me / Millie Jackson – House for sale – Kent / EX / £5 (Two great sides, the previously unissued crossover dancer from Garland Green and the Millie Jackson NS scene hit.)
Angelo Bond – Reach for the moon – Abc / EX / £5 (Vinyl copy of this lovely McKinley Jackson pearl. Publisher details has ben circled with thin ball point pen.)
Rick St. John – One heart hurting / You got to fall in love Part three – Independent / VG+ / £250 (Very rare sweet soul gem, killer stuff! Decent dancer on the flip. Record visually just shy of EX with some light marks, plays great.)
Delvons – Girls get ready (Here we come) – Pato / EX (w/ warp) / £80 (Real nice group harmonies once you get pass the intro which uses a tad too much organ for my taste. Rare 1974 release. Record has a warp which is not sharp so it plays nicely along my Technics 1210/Shure M44G with 1,5g tracking. £500 at the raresoulman.co.uk website.)
Sam Butler – I can’ get over (Loving you) – SRI / EX / £170 (Classic and smooth modern soul with a two step feel. White label DJ copy, original with the “Mastered by Capitol” stamp in the run out, most copies of this you see is the bootleg.)
Skip Mahoney – Janice / Don’t stop now – Salsoul / EX/VG+ / £85 (White demo copy of this classic, complete with company sleeve with title sticker. Cover just shy of EX with a tiny bit of general wear.)
Terry Callier – I don’t want to see myself (Without you) – Erect / EX/EX / £60 (Classic 1982 release and still unique in it’s kind. Huge demand again!)
Truth – What direction / Thank you girl for hanging on – Philly Groove / EX / £60 (Superb Philly double header, a real good jazzy slowie and a uptempo feelgood typical Philly dancer.)
