Syd Dale - Action Man (Impress 10”) Vg+ £100 Never been a big fan of instrumentals bar a few notable exceptions (Frank Foster, Mike Vickers and one or two others). This exceptionally hard to locate 10” of composer, pianist and conductor Syd Dale compositions that for me is every bit as good and reminiscent of those aforementioned exceptions. Breathtakingly brilliant and would have set many a dance floor of the past on fire. Not seen on any playlists probably thanks to obscurity and rarity - a sleeping monster IMHO! https://youtu.be/AnMr9xUR8Ic The Four - Good Thing Going (Nashville North) Ex £150 Stupidly rare garage soul stormer that’s had plays on Europe and at more progressive venues in recent times, already started to cross over to the wider northern scene having had plays at Dark Horses and elsewhere. This one won’t stay at this price for long last one I had went privately to a top DJ. Don’t sleep. https://youtu.be/9bam_gKVjPs Romans - He Don’t Love You (MY) Vg (plays Vg+) £75 ***HEAR IT*** Sold my last one for £150 in decent condition, this one has some pretty dramatic looking marks, but plays Vg+ and easily as well as the copy I sold at twice the price (***HEAR IT*** clip below from actual copy). Had a bit of exposure in Europe but barely any here, fabulous garage soul/R&B on a very collectible label. https://youtube.com/shorts/hCGwUTq8_lA?feature=shared Demotrons - Take This Love I Have (Scepter) Vg (plays Vg+) £75 Killer garage soul that’s yet to have any real exposure outside of Europe (except via me), like above last one I had went to a top DJ and know at least two others with it in their box so it won’t be long. Plenty of northern crossover appeal here too. Very very tough 45 on the label! This one has a different flip side to other copies (only one I’ve seen with this too!) and it’s not a bad time in it’s own right. https://youtu.be/TvOR94SV_cM PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

This blew me away when I first heard it and have been trying stock pile copies before letting on but there’s none out there! One play and you’ll be hooked! Played by Brian Maguire slightly pitched (hear below) and all the better for it. https://youtu.be/8_rhYYtpD68 PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Accidentals - These Days (Harbor) Ex £600 Monster Garage Soul that’s currently one of the hottest 45s highly sought after in the US, UK and Europe. An absolute killer and very very reluctant sale from my own personal collection. Incredibly rare 45 that never shows up, pretty sure the press run was only 500 in first place! Condition is faultless this is as close to Mint- as it could be, there a couple of very very faint paper scuffs (DNAP) that can be seen under the light but it’s otherwise a beautiful copy. This only ever changes hands privately and the last two have been £600 so I’ll stick at that (still has away to go IMHO). You are unlikely to see another in this condition, don’t sleep. https://youtu.be/RP7tcKO6X8c PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Christian Soldiers - Won’t Turn Back (Song Bird) Ex £40 Absolutely love this one, infectious R&B style Gospel that’s perfect for current trends and playlists. Had sone exposure in Europe and at more progressive UK venues but not widely known and another hard one on the label. Lovely copy! https://youtu.be/P09bdjUevFw?si=jYdxPuRn98yLAYlW Reverend Cleophus Robinson - Elijah Rock (Peacock) Ex £40 Another brilliant R&B infused Gospel banger that’s had some exposure but with plenty of legs left in it. Perfect now sound IMHO and a snip at forty notes! https://youtu.be/0GdnAZ0UjI8?si=5q80kLZ3upXzqK6U PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Herb Johnson And The Impacts - Where Are You/I’m So Glad (Brunswick Gold Reissue) Mint- £50 With Toxsan originals never showing up (last Discogs was nearly four years ago and sold at £500, so who know what it would go for now), and Brunswick second press copies at least half that price, this official Brunswick 2nd issue has seen a steady rise in price. Big demand for the lowrider side and rightly so, plus you get a northern classic on the flip! https://youtu.be/J1BLCVDhQj4?si=_Z6PKPhhEvCFMMY7 https://youtu.be/eDSVgUyZeuU?si=OIICw1UIEjJQgOCz Wallace Brothers - I Need Someone (Jewel) Mint- £45 Demand has seen the price on this rise and rise, it wasn’t long ago it was a tenner, last couple I’ve seen have been £60! Killler lowrider 45 that will likely rise further in the months ahead. Don’t let the label damage put you off either, vinyl is Mint- The Shellettes - Must Be Something I’m Doin’ Wrong / Soldier Boy Over There (Power) Mint £35 Otherwise known as La’ Shell and The Shellettes, one of Canada’s finest girl groups, here presented in their seemingly very rare US release of this lowrider bomb backed with a sublime mid tempo girl group cut. The Canadian one flew out when I last had one four years ago! Not widely known this one, yet! https://youtu.be/YVF5L26tNbE https://youtu.be/LZg_4sP8T1g PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Summits - Sophisticated Lady/Let’s Love Now (La Salle) Ex (one small mark DNAP away from Mint-) £100 Funk edged Chicago northern that’s had plays in the past and more recently in more upfront/funk edged venues and rooms. An absolute banger IMHO and one that if it were rarer would probably be massive (always reminds me of Walter and The Admirations this one and that’s no bad thing!). The group harmony flip will have its fans too and one that seems to have evaded the attention of the lowrider crowd thus far. Great 45 at a great price. https://youtu.be/H2ahKLNB47w?si=RDskUTiizRnC0nOM https://youtu.be/5xApO5P4HPw?si=3i8O5qkS9Dzueub2 PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Jackson Brothers - I Gotta Hear It From You (Providence WD) Ex £250 A perennial in demander from the halcyon days of Stafford where it was c/up as Rufus Lumley I think first by Dean Anderson then by Keb Darge. Demand has continued to grow and still has a way to go IMHO. Seen sell at £300-400 in recent times at Vg+ or above, tough to find and this is a lovely copy. That intro still gets me every time. Don’t sleep. https://youtu.be/zr0TJUNsLCg?si=_t3CFLqEJFONx-ED PayPal as friends and family or add 4%. Postage UK £5.00 recorded, £9.00 registered and insured, Europe £10 tracked and signed.

Tommy Dodson with Daton Combo - Love, Love, Love (Dodson) Vg (what looks like minor heat damage to run in causes light noise during first few revolutions ONLY, plays strong Vg+ thereafter - priced accordingly ***HEAR IT***) £125 Absolute killer R&B private press from the ‘One Day Love’ man, that’s long been a very tough to locate 45. Can only assume rarity and obscurity has held this one back because it’s absolutely brilliant. Still sounds right for today. Seen at more than double this price in the past and, despite the floor, this is still a very playable copy! ***HEAR IT*** clip below from actual 45. https://youtube.com/shorts/zcgGkWNFALw?feature=shared PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Masters Of Soul - Lovely Little Lassie (Duke WD) Mint- £175 Stunning mint- copy of this killer lowrider rarity. High demand for this with prices exceeding £350 on both Discogs and eBay recently, making this HALF PRICE! Doesn’t show often either especially n this super clean condition as WD! Bargain price - don’t sleep this won’t still be here in the morning! https://youtu.be/hu4Tf9dyiNw?si=kjdIYNIZIiRS4Ngf The Shellettes - Must Be Something I’m Doin’ Wrong / Soldier Boy Over There (Power) Mint £50 Otherwise known as La’ Shell and The Shellettes, one of Canada’s finest girl groups, here presented in their seemingly very rare US release of this lowrider bomb backed with a sublime mid tempo girl group cut. The Canadian one flew out when I last had one four years ago! Not widely known this one, yet! https://youtu.be/LZg_4sP8T1g Billy Tircuit - I Was A Fool/I Confess (Bonatemp) Vg+ £50 A virtually unknown ballad, brought to my attention via one the excellent Shades of Sorrow MixClouds, but was also featured on the excellent Wardell Quezerque - Sixty Smokin' Soul Senders. Flip it for a killer Popcorn dancer that really should be better known than it is. Not a common 45 either - seen at much higher prices elsewhere! https://youtu.be/XlrlBPl5N_8?si=S1CDMpygPFtLjbq9 https://youtu.be/UFI8-XQCuSI?si=ImxKJ8JbRX6kQgcu PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Spurrlows - Baby I Love You/We Need More Love (YAS) Vg+ £100 Killer upfront twofer here that’s heavily in-demand amongst the more upfront DJs and collectors. Top side is a funk edged dancer that’s been a popular RSF spin for some time I believe, flip it for a an absolutely brilliant piece of garage soul currently getting plays by one or two of those in the know. A tough 45 to obtain! https://youtu.be/TWDfnKuOqiE?si=Gqsl89Gupjo8sL6w https://youtu.be/LHwPl5wRXF0?si=BSrqetm-w5V4llR7 Ira Glover - I’ll Be Loving You/Funky Woman (Soul House) Ex £75 Double sided dynamite on this relatively unknown release from ‘71. Top side is a funk edged dancer that’s so so right for now, had some exposure courtesy of one or two RSF DJs but lots of legs left in this one! Flip side is a gorgeous slab of crossover soul that really needs more exposure. Rarity maybe explains its lack of exposure- chance to put that right for an enterprising DJ with a good ear. https://youtu.be/ZZzFZBYKnSM?si=OnoVUPzlim_y4KsW https://youtu.be/3SWPh6My8pQ?si=lmQx0Tq7oHI9Ks_E PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Invaders - Why I’m Not The One (Sumit) Vg (lots of light surface marks but plays Vg+) £75 A future Shades of Sorrow comp track of ever I’ve heard one. Sublime garage soul ballad that’s pretty hard to find, one on Discogs currently in same grade at twice the price + tax! Can’t ever search this on YouTube either so assume link below is a ‘hidden’ private upload. https://youtu.be/DZfbHevGilM Four Below Zero - Getting Through To You (Jerden) Ex £40 Was covered up until I unwittingly uncovered it on a sales post after managing to source a couple of copies a year or so ago. They flew out and it’s been a while since i’ve had another. Still cheap but so was The Riddles and that’s a £100 45 now and as it’s still on the playlists of people like Brian Maguire it’s got a long way to go yet! https://youtu.be/c5RUpSpfTzE?si=76pi9itoL1gJo4cR Steam - I’m The One Who Loves You (Mercury) Mint- £10 ***HEAR IT*** Last couple of copies from a batch of store stock I managed to get, get it now while it’s still cheaper than a fish and chip supper! Pretty sure this one will be new to most, killer, blue eyed, semi-known (at best), ballad that has northern and lowrider potential. I’ve managed to secure a small quantity of store stock having heard this over the phone, already sold four or five privately to those in the know. Am offering these for £10 plus post, can see this one being a £40/£50 once copies dry up and word gets out. Remember the likes of The Mauds, The Riddles and even Gene Yarbrough were relatively cheap and plentiful until they were exposed, if you missed out on those then don’t miss out on this! It’s a small quantity only so once they’re gone, they’re gone https://youtube.com/shorts/-tVCyrTphtE?feature=shared PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

The Enticers - Turn On Your Love Light (Paris Tower) Ex £75 Killer and rare garage soul version of this gospel infused banger. Don’t think this has had any plays and remains pretty much unknown even in the garage soul collecting circles. Everything on Paris Tower is rare and sought after and this is no exception, only other copy I’ve seen was twice this price! No YouTube so clip from actual 45 below. One for an enterprising DJ to make their own. https://youtube.com/shorts/XY3M0-_x3IU?feature=shared PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Paul (Guitar Red) Johnson - That I Love You (Kellmac) Vg++ £125 I hate selling this 45, have had a couple of times in the past and it genuinely hurts to part with it every time. One of the hardest on the label and certainly the least known. Was a c/up for Keb Darge in the halcyon days of Stafford but like so many it had a few plays before being dropped and has never surfaced since. Killer chugging mid tempo slab of dirty northern R&B that will have its day. Last one I had could’ve sold multiple times and am told £150 was cheap given it’s quality and rarity! https://youtu.be/CLxPxIXv3pk PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Masters Of Soul - Lovely Little Lassie (Duke WD) Mint- £200 ***REDUCED*** Really don’t understand why this hasn’t sold yet! Reduced to almost half its recent sale prices, if it doesn’t go at this price then I’ll file it away - you have been warned 😂. Stunning mint- copy of this killer lowrider rarity. High demand for this with prices exceeding £350 on both Discogs and eBay recently. Doesn’t show often either especially n this super clean condition as WD! Bargain price - don’t sleep this won’t still be here in the morning! https://youtu.be/hu4Tf9dyiNw?si=kjdIYNIZIiRS4Ngf Odds and Ends - Let Me Try (Today) Ex £40 Killer crossover/sweet soul tune that like those above has been rising steadily over recent times, seen sell at £60+ and this is more or less Mint- lovely copy. https://youtu.be/Ab95nNHp1pA Magnificent Men - Maybe, Maybe, Baby/I Got News (Capitol) Ex £40 Blue eyed (garage) soul legends with IMHO their very best 45 and a killer twofer at that! Not sure what side I prefer but for the sake of this listing let’s go with the incredible beat ballad ‘Maybe, Maybe, Baby’. Flip it for an underplayed gem of a dancer that will appeal to garage soul and northern collectors. Why isn’t this on any playlists? It’s f’ing superb! Tough and I think the most expensive of their output but this type of quality for £40 seems like madness. https://youtu.be/j3y2J280x6g?si=w64fMAjWfcbYn669 Steam - I’m The One Who Loves You (Mercury) Mint- £10 ***HEAR IT*** Last couple of copies from a batch of store stock I managed to get, get it now while it’s still cheaper than a fish and chip supper!

Had plays in the past but (and I really find it hard to believe) never took off. For me this has absolutely everything! Just one listen and you’ll be hooked. Went down a storm when I played it at the last Lock Up. https://youtu.be/uHWYWsSbil4?si=ZPR62utNjC5PiB0h Magnificent Men - I Got News (Capitol) Ex £50 Blue eyed (garage) soul legends with IMHO their very best 45, this one should be massive and still sounds bang on for now.
