Diggin' Dave  45s list - November 2019

 

Full list with most soundfiles working can be found here: https://mailchi.mp/63d66f3f648a/1nc6s8682q-2626417

There were problems with a couple of links to soundfiles, working links can be found below:

 

 

Ellusions – You didn’t have to leave / You wouldn’t understand – Lamon 2004

All-time Carolina northern classic and still sounding so fresh after all those years. Right up there with the best for me.

Visual grade: VG+ to EX

€1000

 

Ray Charles – Hey now / Baby won’t you please come home – Swing Time 297

First, rarest and most collectable 45 from one of the giants. Only found one recorded previous sale of this fro back in 2014.

Visual grade: EX

€500

 

Dan Kirby – Treatment / Only for today – Young Generation

Completely unknown Carolina garage 45. Only known copy as far as I’m aware and a pretty cool one too.

Visual grade: VG, slight warp NAP

€325

 

D.J. Thomas – Go ahead on / But someday – Ibis 45-365 DJ Copy

R&B monster that has been overlooked for many years but is finally catching on during the last couple of years. Surface marks but it’s a strong pressing and plays very nicely.

Visual grade: VG-

€300

 

Blood Transit – Love makes a better world Pt I/II – M-I-C 006

Very much under the radar driving Florida funk mover

Visual grade: Strong VG+

soundfile: clyp.it/ipqdejlp

€175

 

The Interpretations – Jason Pew Mosso Pt I/II – Jubilee 5714 DJ Copy

Funk breaks 45, featuring on the legendary Brainfreeze mix.

Visual grade: VG+

€150

 

Mickey Champion – Wait for me / My troubles are ended – Lilly 45-509 DJ Copy

Super obscure Cali doo wop R&B that never shows up, let alone in this condition. Not positive but I o think this is the same Mickie Champion that later recorded the Northern classic on Musette.

Visual grade: M-

soundfile: clyp.it/ipqdejlp

€150

 

Billy Williams – Backtrack / Too much – Romark 107

Cool instrumental dancer on the legendary Kent Harris label. Does not show up very often.

Gritty sister funk killer from the James, Smith & Crawford Hodges

Visual grade: M-, slight warp NAP

€120

 

Storm’s – Save me / Answer me – Audiodisc Acetate

Gritty R&B dancer that never made it past the acetate phase so I guess this might be a one-off

Visual grade: VG-

€120

 

The Mighty Elegant – I find myself, falling in love with you / I don’t know what it is, but it sho is funky – Jaber 7115

Essential sweet ballad with a bass-heavy funk flip.

Visual grade: M-

€120

 

Village Crusaders – Akiwawa / Hashishi – Trans-American 0008
