(I was put onto this femme beat ballad back in the late 80s by Alan Rhodes, one time Wigan DJ, he knew his stuff, what a guy)
Rose Valentine – I’ve gotta know right now – RCA 9276 WD M- £100
Maria Dallas – Ambush – RCA 9279 WD M- £70
(Superb R&B, a dark horse on the label)
Sidney Barnes – You’ll always be in style – Red Bird 10039 WD M- £200 SOLD
(Checklist out, artist - tick, song - tick, label - tick, winner - tick, minor edge lift DNAP - tick)
Gloria Lane – Lets get together / Love of my life – Spotlight 1001 M- £750
(Championed under cover by Ginger Taylor as Betty Baker & Heartbreakers, this incredibly rare femme double sider is a class act. “Let’s get together” with its rasping brassy intro and Motownesque quality vocals gets my vote. This Spotlight label 45 from New York is in tip-top condition, with just a P penned on the flip. One appeared on DISCOGs at 1500 if you want!)
