    If it's the one thats been posted on you tube forget it , that is a dreadful remix , the original was not released on vinyl, Queens hall circa 91\ 92. :thumbup::lol:

    Surely the one in the YT clip (the Kent 45) is the same one as on the LP comp from 1988-ish? Never released at the time, so that LP would be the original vinyl release. Not aware of any remixes or other versions, but maybe I missed something?

    A few more bits up for sale, all real quality stuff. Shipping from Sweden, payment by Paypal. Payment as friends & family is not needed, though it may help if you want to haggle prices:)

    Thanks for looking,

    Carl

    Hesitations - Is this the way to treat a girl - GWP. M-, top copy, looks and plays terrific. Stone classic crossover! £90

    Sapphire - How've you been getting along - Blue Ash. Top drawer sweet soul, and hard to find. Remember buying this from the late Bob A and him being pissed about nobody giving this 45 the appreciation it deserves. Not the prettiest copy, lots of surface marks but no deep scratches. Ballad side has surface noise on intro, but plays quite well overall, only some sporadic light crackle. Funk flip sounds crackly. Ring wear on labels. Listen to this actual copy here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DY5JRAmppeE Looking for £200 or best offer.

    Eunice Collins - At the hotel - Mod Art. VG++ to M-, but pressing is lo-fi, so there's a few crackles despite looking pretty much perfect. This copy has clean labels (see photo below), unlike many others sold which look quite bad. £475 or near offer. SOLD

    Ballads - Butterfli - Balja. M-, top copy. £30

    Sharen Clark & The Product of Time - I'm not afraid of love - Yodi. VG condition, plenty of surface marks but only a couple of small feelable marks. "I'm not afraid" plays well, just a little light crackle. Flipside "Mama" has a few pops in the start, then plays well. Minor WOL both sides. £35

    Heywood Cash - You’re messing up a good thing - Epic. Real classy 70s, IMO the best version of this tune. VG++. £100 SOLD

    Sonics - Find myself another girl - Valmon. Texas northern, very rare and very good indeed. Still not widely known, I believe. Nice copy, between VG+ and VG++, plays beautifully with just two really faint pops midway. Promo stamp on labels. £700 ono. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qEFIW4aWQtY

    Sharon McMann - Got to find another guy - Karen. Awesome Detroit northern! Nice VG++ vinyl, a few very light marks, plays superb. Neat WOLs, bit of wear around center hole on A-side. £600 ono https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHSO5rkUY1Y

    Sly, Slick & Wicked - Sho nuff b/w Ready for you - People (purple label vinyl copy, not styrene). Two great crossover sides. VG++. £80

     

    Vernon Steve Weakley - Is it love or is it lust - VSW. Sweet soul beauty. VG++, very clean. £25

    I think I could have  filled the ten with just Teddy ,so many class songs to his credit.

    Yeah, so many Teddy monsters! In addition to those previously mentioned, Somebody told me, Heaven only knows, and The whole town’s laughing at me are obviously all-time classics. Lots more mileage in this.

  10. Ok, it's a tough one, but something like this for me:

    Archie Bell & The Drells - Don't let love get you down

    Teddy Pendergrass - When somebody loves you back

    Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes - Bad luck

    Jones Girls - This feeling's killing me

    O'Jays - Back stabbers

    Silk - I can't stop turning you on

    Anthony White - Never let you get away from me

    Ebonys - Do you like the way I love you

    Jean Carn - Time waits for no one

    Futures - Ain't no time fa nothing

    Such a load of fantastic tunes on the label, looks like PIR afternoon at home when I get off work:)
