A 12 Record Mixed Bag
PM or email soulstacks@gmail.com All clips taken from the record for sale - click the 'hear' button to listen. My EX grading tends to be fussy so be confident that they are pretty good EX grades (same goes down the scale, too) De'Sire - I Don't Care/Feed On The Groove (Lou-Jo-Marc) (EX+) £350 Hear Super catchy modern soul/boogie rarity that seldom turns up on original 45. Ebony Stones - Take You Higher/We Want To Do It (ESP) (EX/EX) £350 Hear Two sides of class Texan funky soul. One side a boogie funk party cut, the other the ethereal, soaring modern soul that is 'Take You Higher'. Somewhat rocky start gives way to a cosmic soul banger. Nu Cru - High Cost/Thank You Baby (Sotoplay) (EX+) £250 Hear Quality West Coast funky boogie on both sides. Frankie Freeman - This Old Shack/Born To Raise Hell (Ghetto) (EX) £200 Hear Dark, moody early 70s northern/crossover crossover sound: one for the fans of something left of centre and almost venturing into the funk side of things. First Class - Tell Me What You Want/Laying My Heart On The Line (Park-Way) (EX-) £150 Hear Really scarce 7" single from the Softones/First Class pairing on Park-Way. The two sides of the 45 did appear on the album but the single is pretty tough to find. Educators Band - Everybody Doing Their Thing Part 1/Everybody Doing Their Thing Part 2 (Dy.Rich) (EX) £125 Hear One of my favourite funk records ever: the way those drums and the bass kick against each other, the sprinkling keys, the soaring sax. Got it all! The Experts - My Love Is Real/(Shing-A-Ling & Boo-g-A-Ling) Big Mama! (JO BY) (EX) £125 Hear Super clean copy of this northern dancer Elaine Armstrong - Sad But True/Precious Moments I can Call My Own (King) (EX) £100 Hear Strong female funky soul that surfaced to a wider audience a couple of years back after being relatively unknown. Michael Cameron & The Dynasty Of Sound - Small Bag And You/Many Faces Of Love (Atlantis) (M-) M- £80 Hear Bass heavy funky boogie featuring the Dynasty of Sound. Picking up spins. Seen this listed for £50+ more this week. Seventh Of May - Boy, Am I Happy/Don's Song (Pennycliff) (M-) M- £80 Hear Sprightly, uptempo positive message northern dancer Shirlene King - Super Stuff/Super Stuff II (HoMark) (M-) M- £80 Hear Sassy, classy female empowerment funker. Grant St Exit - I Got Soul/That's Why I Love You (Del-La) (EX) EX £75 Hear Hear Decent uptempo northern meets a killer downtempo, low rider deep side.

Roy Roberts - Thinking About You 7" Out Now!
Soulstacks Records latest offerings After what seems like an age between signing the contract with Roy and taking the box of finished 45s off the courier man's hands, at last these are here! Those who've had pre-orders placed for months - yours are going out today. *Lesson learned: If you can't hold it, don't 'sold' it! You can PM or (ideally) order at the site here Roy Roberts - Thinking About You/Let's Wrap Up Tonight Baby (Country Star) £8 ‘Thinking About You’ is a fantastic dancer that rides along on a groove underpinned by bubbling percussion and spacey synths and with no 7"³ release at the time, it’s the reason that soul people have been hunting down a mainly Country album since it became more widely know a couple of years back. For the flip side of our 45 we’ve chosen a later moment from Roy’s back catalogue, the 1979 disco soul of ‘Let’s Wrap Up Tonight Baby’: a homemade, slightly minimal four minutes plus of raw dancefloor grooves designed to keep the feet in perpetual motion. Soulstacks Records are delighted to offer this debut 7" single courtesy of the talents of North Carolina’s finest, Mr Roy Roberts. We hope you enjoy! https://soundcloud.com/soulstacks/roy-roberts-thinking-about-you https://soundcloud.com/soulstacks/roy-roberts-lets-wrap-up

MiniDiscs - 21 years of almostness
God, I remember when I used to record everything to minidisc and sit on endless methods of public transport getting across London to work, staying sane only by magic of the MD. I think some of Ian Wrights funk edits were done on a mini disc - that takes some skill and aptience! Still got tons of discs but the player seems to have given up
