Hi Phil, I have issues 12, 33, 35, 36 and 39 (water damage), if you're still looking. Ben

5000 45s, 1000 Lps, lots of soundfiles and useful/useless information. Have a peek! seriouslysoulful.com

Just finished having a good look through the 45s and adding 100s more to the site. I thought some price increases might be called for, but in the end far more went down than went up! Now nearly 5000 45s. 60s, northern, crossover, 70s and lots of deep and ballads. Go on. Have a peek. https://seriouslysoulful.com/

The sound of soul city.... Pick up on this! I recorded all the shows in the early 80s. Friday, 6.00 o'clock... highlight of the week! And, for me, the first mention of Kent LPs and all that entailed. I wrote to him once about a record and received a long, handwritten and very considered letter. Thank you PY.

Articles and discographies on the Supremes, Martha & Vandellas, Gladys Knight, Kim Weston, Marvelettes, Mary Wells, Velvelettes, Claudette Robinson, Brenda Holloway, Tammi Terrell... Free to an appreciative home. Maybe someone collects these?

Are you still looking? If so, I'll do a little price research! Ben

My incredibly brilliant soul novel is now available on Amazon as a paperback at the extortionate price of £11.50 (of which I get 30p). It's still there on kindle at £2.99. 'Recommended! Funny as hell, sharp as a knife, bittersweet and exciting!' according to some bloke called Hans. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1980675619/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1528890900&sr=8-11&keywords=ben+summers
