FOR SOUNDFILES ETC I SUGGEST YOU VIEW THE LIST VIA THE BELOW LINK. https://karlmarthon.wordpress.com/ Hello and welcome to the slightly delayed and slightly shorter June 2013 record sales list. I should be back with a longer list in the end of this summer. In the meantime here’s a few hot records including two rare Blue Wave records 45’s, Courtial’s club killer “Losing you”, a fantastic two step dancer from ex-Delfonics singer Will Hart as well as major label rarities from Gil Scott-Heron, dutch only Teddy Pendergrass, Satyr and Arrivals. Album section holds a few nice ones like Formula One on Guiness, Ian Willson, Jayson Hoover and a great copy of Bobby Taylor “Taylor made soul” on Gordy. Also be sure to check out my discogs.com shop. Email me directly rather than ordering through that website and I can offer a 10% discount. https://www.discogs.com/seller/K-Mart Kind Regards, Karl Soul/Disco/Northern 45’s Chain Reaction - Search for tomorrow / Say yeah - Blue Wave / EX / £550 (Wonderful modern soul dancer of the highest quality. Flip is a great funky disco track not found on the Hott Ice release.) Chuck Strong - You beat me at my game - Music Mountain / VG / £200 (Great modern soul dancer! Very rare first label and with a slightly different version with added girl chorus to the later Venture release. VG with some light background noise only, fine for DJing. Second copy I’ve ever seen, other one is my collection copy.) Courtial - Losing you - Pipeline / VG+ / £100. (Best track off the LP, very tough on 45. Strong VG+ copy.) Kenny Rankin - In the name of love - Columbia / VG+ / £100. (The superior first version, killer folk/soul. VG+ with minor surface marks and plays great. Uninteresting flipside has some clicks, mainly in intro. ) Johnni Starr - I done found myself - Blue Wave / VG / £100 (Superb midtempo modern soul, first release on the Hott Ice/Chain Reaction label and even rarer. Vinyl has plenty of marks, plays ok but not great. Soundfile is from copy for sale.) Teddy Pendergrass - You can't hide from yourself / I don't love you anymore - PIR / VG+ / £50. (Classic Philly soul/disco on rare Dutch only 45. Record and pic sleeve are VG+, some light marks only, plays fine. Made $182 on Ebay earlier this year.)

I closed my Saturday set on the Stockholm Soul Weekender with this.) Nelta Wyatt - Step right on to love — Ice - WIRL / VG / £45 (Sweet/crossover soul from Trinidad I think. Hard to grade this. I call it VG but it's probably as clean a copy as you'll find, however it's pressed on recycled vinyl and has some built-in crackle. Labels are re-used as well. Playback is similar to the Youtube clip.) 9th Creation - Much too much - Hilltak / EX / £45. (Classic soul/rare groove that's hard on 45.)
