Not the old party game! 

 

What vinyl delights have you received recently? Any good bargains? Big Ticket mega 45s? Or maybe cheap and cheerful but great on the ear?

Just got the Z Z Hill album on UK Action, vg+ for 20 quid, well pleased.

Sounds like a good buy at that price, feel free to post a soundbite from the album?

Z Z Hill - Make Me Yours

.

Got this one few days ago

 

 

Picked up a m- Johnny truitt...just the other day for £64 last week. Pleased with that price...kind regards......Rob

I wish my postman would knock louder as I've lost count of the times when there's been someone in the house but the little red slip has been quietly posted through the door and I've had to go to the PO to pick a record up.

Haven't bought much lately but these three were recently delivered-

Little Herman- "Gotta Keep Walking"/ "I'm Gonna Put The Hurt On You" - Arlen

Mike and Bill- "Somebody's Gotta Go" - Movin' Up 

And I finally tracked down this unreleased Irma Thomas tune- 

 

Just got a copy of Bill Brown & The Soul Injection "Time after Time.

having sold ‘shot for the moon’ that Accent 45 for fifty quid before it went big as they say, I now feel vindicated, this was a tenner and 100 times better:-)  

actually the accent 45 sounded out of tune to me, and a tad shrill!! 

Some nice vinyl being dropped on people's welcome matts, good to see!

I initially read that as "great on the gear"! 

I bought this cheap, on a lovely looking demo. The vinyl is really thin like those freebie records you used to get. Nothiong chesap about the quality - absolute beautiful soul record, with superb vocals. 

 

Not a rare record but (what was) a M- copy of Bobby Freeman - I'll Never Fall In Love Again landed on the mat the other day but as soon as I saw the state of the box I knew there was only going to be one outcome.

Damn shame.

Indeed. ☹️

Not my lucky week. Had an LP mailer arrive today, even though I hadn't bought any LP's recently.  Thought I was on to a winner when I opened it to find the mega rare Frosty & The Fun Street Gang LP, which, as you will know, is full of killer Northern monsters.  But no, inside was a damn 45. 🤔

I got one recently, a gift from someone who I've had a few soul very good packs from, on the Heritage label, the Cherry People, apparently it was huge at Wigan Casino, I didn't go so I don't know but my lass a Wigan expert and a regular for five years says it was definitely a spin there.

I love it, not what I would call 'Soul' but it has certain hallmarks of a NS spin.

Either way I love it! 

 

Finally back to work after long illness so still have to be careful with the pennies hence this cheapie dropping on the matt this week
