Northern Lights Northern Lights - Hey Mama (sale copy).mp3 Don't know what's happened but the mp3 seems to slip at the beginning and the full track starts to play about 20 seconds in!!

Little Curtis & The Bigmen - Peace (sale copy).mp3 Little Curtis

*****BOTH SOLD TO PEOPLE WITH EXCELLENT TASTE***** Hi All These are two very nice obscure and rare 45s - one funky and one crossover. Both spares I managed to pick up. (1) Little Curtis & The Bigmen - "Peace" (GF Productions) VG+ £200 *****SOLD***** one I've played at the last couple of Rhythm Soul & Funk weekenders in Eastbourne and gone down well - also featured on my last Mixcloud (2) Northern Lights - "Hey Mama" (Northern Lights) VG/VG+ £200 *****SOLD***** this is simply a stunning piece of flute-driven, pleading crossover soul which genuinely deserves to go big across a range of venues the recording is pitched up a little which gives it a more dancefloor friendly feel, but this really could catch on in all sorts of venues it is a little crackly in quieter parts but is pretty much exactly the same condition as the copy I'm keeping Little-Curtis-The-Bigmen-Peac-YTvyG4.mp3 Northern Lights - Hey Mama (sale copy).mp3

Massive tune over the last 15 years plus. Oscar Perry "I'm On My Way" (Paradise) - VG+ condition (scan and soundfile below) £2,000 Bank transfer or PayPal please (F&F or add 4% to cover my fees). PM if interested. Oscar Perry - I'm On My Way.mp3

Papa Bear & The Cubs. Who wants to spunk £3K on that awful piece of dreck? One of the worst records I have ever heard played in the name of rare soul.

Very sad news. A gentleman and such a stalwart as a DJ - somewhere every weekend! Such a shame his last year was filled with such anguish. RIP Ted.

Dreck.

Looking for the Chicago Good Guys "Peace, Love & Harmony" on Toi. Please message me if you can help. Thanks

Slightly off topic, for which I apologise, but did Iain Stewart end up with the rump of this collection, about 10,000 records so I was told at the time? Or was it the rump of Ian Levine's collection that ended up with Iain Stewart?

A few quality items needing new homes. Paypal F&F (or please add 4% to cover my fees) or bank transfer. Postage to be added. (1) Creations - "Take These Memories" (Virtue) VG+ £250 *****SOLD***** simply a fabulous record - rare and underplayed I understand has had venue plays including from Soul Sam himself and Andy Dyson (2) Jimmie Ellis - "Happy To Be" (Century City) EX £300 *****SOLD***** classic in lovely condition and a reluctant sale - needs must (3) Johnny Davis - "You Got To Crawl To Me" EX £50 reduced from previous lists - spare copy of this wonderful, heart-rending soul 45 (4) Masterpiece - "Love Affair" (Ypsi) EX £250 *****SOLD***** another reluctant let go - lovely condition on this 70s crossover gem (5) Winfield Parker - "Mr Clean" (Ru-Jac) VG/VG+ £200 *****SOLD***** Departure from the more crossover end of the other listed items with this funk-edged R&B gem The better version of Mr Clean IMHO and I think tougher than Dicky & Gloria - seen more of them than this Condition is more VG+ than VG but visually at the lower end; however, record plays loud and proud with no significant issues
