First side is regarded as a soulful Northern Soul crossover of the finest pedigree, a flowing vibe intro glides towards Mr. Gardner's effortlessly booming vocal, gradually swells to bursting-point, anticipation has him pleading "is this really love" with Jimmy Vanleers stroke of genius leaving the girl-chorus until the very end - which leaves you instantly reaching for the arm to drop the needle yet again - AWESOME stuff.

it's better to stick to the main dealers if you can as they usually charge a fair postage and do multiple buy deals, there's some real cowboys about, all over the world they are & a lot are in the uk, someone should write a book about all the reasons they have for overcharging on the postage, trouble is with uk postage going up it's only going to get worse. joe.

Shame on you - this Detroit Diva made an audience of full-grown men unashamedly cry at Cleethorpes Weekender earlier this century...she just drips with class, soul and emotion. Before you today is her extremely RARE plum label British Atlantic Album just littered with Detroit goodies.

This 1976 Muscle Shoals session even spawned a ridiculously rare Epic promo 12" but neither th 45 or the 12" promo had "You're Messing Up A Good Thing" on the flip. Another Alabama Terry Woodford & Clayton Ivy collaboration crafts a soul jewel. String and Haywood's rap is a calm before the storm, as Mr. Cash suddenly punches through the tranquil intro and delvers a finely tuned dancer of the highest order.

Truly fabulous in it's primitiveness, RARE in the extreme and this copy is in impeccable flaw free Condition. Sorry, this item has already been won! The winning bid was £ 555.00 Bobby Thurston Sweetest Slice Of The Pie Is this 1978 Washington, D. C. indie just the very greatest 70s dance SOULalbum ever made? A click of the soundfile will unleash "Just Ask Me" + "Treat Me The Same Way" - Soul-Boy-Life does not get any better than these tracks booming at'cha; that's only two of the 9 wonderful tracks this album holds. For an independent production the quality of work is truly miraculous crafting to the nth degree. Ticking every box of the Rare-Soul-Fans taste-wish-list. Whilst you're enjoying the recording, please note this copy still retains most-all of it's original shrink wrap, even sports the little plastic pocket on the back cover. It's a beautiful example of yes - IMHO the finest indie 70s Soul LPeven produced. Sorry, this item has already been won! The winning bid was £ 257.00 Four Sights Love Is A Hurting Game - That I Can't Win C/w The Dreamer The Temptations could well have been te inspiration behind this Miles Grayson 1967 Los Angeles rarity. As the lead "Ruffinesque" voice leads the way on the rasping vocal-group Northern Soul rarity. Seldom seen for sale after it's initial discovery circa 1977, other than that handful I know of no other time this 45 have been unearthed in this near perfect condition. Validated in it's extreme rarity, it's quality underlined by a flipside nearly every note as good. This Jerry Flannagan project resisted opportunity for a smooth vocal group experience, to serve up a racking, grinding dancer of the purest kind. So far this 45 has only enjoyed brief flirtations with late Wigan Casino &Stafford's Top Of The World. Today a revival spin or two, and the current underground demand could explode into something far, far bigger. In 2012 rare vocal group records of this quality in this sublime condition are worth more than their weight in gold! Sorry, this item has already been won! The winning bid was £ 443.00 Bobby Taylor And The Vancouvers Does Your Mama Know About Me C/w Fading Away Previously called Four Niggers & A Chink, Bobby wisely renamed his group for this impressive Motown Debut. This 1968 release is certainly one of the most elusive British TMG 600 series 45s as a stock copy! As a DEMO it is ridiculously tough to capture. Late 70s video fans will remember the hilarious Cheech & Gongs - Up In Smoke - has the haphazard couple made a mess from everything they attempted. So it's hard to believe that 10 years earlier Tommy Gong was co-writing this most-beautiful of Motown songs as The Vancouver's aid Bobby Taylor with their Temptations inspired recordings. Both sides are top-drawer male vocal-group harmony statements, with "Does Your Mama.." achieving cult-status years after it's failed UK launch. This example the condition could hardly be finer - listen to the double sound file of precise Motown soul. Sorry, this item has already been won! The winning bid was £ 120.00
