Been having a sort through my collection, and it struck me just how many records there are out there which you can get for less than £20, which are top-quality soul records, and should be given the reactivation they deserve. We’ve had a few “cheap as chips” threads over the years, so allow me to reactivate it with a few more under-£20 finds.

THE CRAMPTON SISTERS: I Didn’t Know What Time It Was (DCP)

THE EMOTIONS: I Can’t Stand No More Heartaches (Brainstorm)

THE YOUNG FOLK: Lonely Girl (Mar-V-Lus)

RON MURPHY: Hollow Man (20th Century)

THE IMPALAS: Whip It On Me (Bunky)

THE FAWNS: Nothing But Love Can Save Me (Cap City)

RICK & FLOYD: Baby You Got Me Going (Lasco)

Let’s hear about some more – over to you!

Accents - New Girl - M-Pac (just as good if not better than Jimmie & Entertainers).

Nick Allen - Hard Way To Go - Walas (fantastic record and can still be had cheap if you look).

Best of luck with the Nick Allen

Not my cup of tea either

try

DEON JACKSON: Love Makes The World Go Round (Carla) :thumbup:

Just love the tune

twenty years ago this was my finisher (regardless of value)

Lenis Guess - working for me baby,surely not a cheapie other side to "just ask me" or is that a cheapie.

on original probably more now

especially as the other version of working for my baby is now heavily played

Scans of both sides of the SPQR release, uptempo version is much better,

the medium tempo one is the 'b' side of Just Ask Me

Its king edwards version everyone is after at the mo

Some cheapies I like:

Gloria Walker - My Precious Love

Impressions - Sooner or Later

Festivals - You've Got The Makings Of A Lover

and one that I'm always singing

Ruby Andrews - Cassanova

The Syl Johnson
