Dana Valery – You don’t know where your interest lies / Having you around – Columbia 4-44004 DJ Copy
All-time classic northern oldie. Bootlegged on various occasions but this is the real deal.
Visual grade: EX
€600
Jimmy Sabater – Times are changin’ / My memories of you – Tico 570

Visual grade: VG+
€250
Deviations & Deviation Band – Loving you / Boogie to the beat – Panky 504

Visual grade: EX

Edward Hamilton & The Natural Looks – Willing mind / My darling baby – Mary Jane 1111

Leftfield Alabama deep soul with more than a touch of Screaming Jay Hawkins.
