ORIGINAL 45’s Page One - Thank goodness gotta good woman - Norfolk International / EX / £350 (Current indemander by Lenis Guess. Great stuff!) *SOLD* Sam Dees - Soul sister / Easier to say than do - Lolo / EX / £160 (Highly indemand! Hard to find with only the issues having the the “Soul sister” side. Could have sold 20 copies off my last list when it were listed as £125. So charge a bit more for this copy. Clean vinyl but some very light ring wear on the label on the “Soul sister” side, still looks very neat.) Otis Clay - The only way is up / Special kind of love - Echo / EX / £125 (“The only way is up” clean copy without any hiss. Flipside has a few sleeve marks but plays well as well. I also have a minty copy of the japanese album with this song on, complete with obi and insert @ £30.) C.L.

PREVIOUSLY UNISSUED, WHITE LABELS etc Brief Encounter - Shake and move / I want you so much - Sonic / EX/NM / £40 (Two previously unissued 1980’s sides released in 2010 in a limited run of 500 copies. This is number 442. Sold by the band members themselves and I think they charged $50 with profits going to Haiti Relief efforts, the money I will get if I sell this will go straight to my pocket.) Tommy Tate - If you wanna love somebody / Byron Miller - Got to get it right / EX / £20 (Two first timers on vinyl. Tommy Tate version kills the released one on Koko, which is dead rare. White labels with titles on stickers.) Originals - Suspicion / Gladys Knight - Fare Thee Well / EX / £45 (White label copy of two previously unreleased Motown tracks. This is the sought after release which came out in the late 1980’s and were then sold for £20 as new. Excellent sound quality.

Gladys Knight - Too late for you and me / Supremes - Love is like an itching in my heart (alt take) / EX / £70 (See above. Clean labels. A copy sold on eBay in 2010 for $265.) Marvin Gaye - Lonely lover / So long / EX / £45 (See above, clean labels here as well.)
