Your Best "blind" Buy
The remaining 45s from this store in Wisconsin after in closed in 2004..... some very good blind buys in amongst it. I also thought a certain US Armed Forces radio station library had to be good & it was.

Recording Flaw?
it's common & cheap dude, you can get it no probs......

Recording Flaw?
yeah, at stores in the states, "let me just look up these soul 45s......... they don't seem to be in this price guide.... $2 each" not so much these days of cfrenzy & popsike.

Recording Flaw?
ok, let's start to perpetuate the rumor on here that anything not listed is common & cheap, make it a sticky at the top of the sales forum, like the grading thread...

Recording Flaw?
weird that the DeVons 45 isn't in Manship's Price Guide either, must be too common.

Recording Flaw?
i think it's a bad tape edit on the backing track. didn't think it was the plates at the time because i couldn't see anything overly crooked/wobbled at those points. I think it happens 3 times in total, when it happens under the vocals I think it just gets hidden better.

nah, i grabbed a bunch of unplayed ones from Amoeba & they all do it on each time the organ turnaround bit (like you hear near the start occurs), pretty sure it'll be all of them from a bad master edit because I checked with someone elses unrelated copy too & now yours.

Soul Packs From Soulbowl Back In The 1970's
you're allowed to sell them, you just have to sell them at the old Soul Bowl price & not profit off them by selling them at the current going rate.

Soul Packs From Soulbowl Back In The 1970's
I didn't know until after he had got them out, researched them & was telling/showing me in person, I doubt they would have been for sale anyway as he's still into soul 45s.

Soul Packs From Soulbowl Back In The 1970's
yeah, a guy I DJ with dragged the remnants of his soul packs out of his attic last year, all records that were deemed crap at the time, let's just say that a fair few of them have got a lot less crappy & more valuable since he put them away in the 70s

Common Labels/rare Records.?
