Any good for you?

Hi Neal - I have one. PMd you

Err - this post is from 2019 and was the last time Jerry’s death was incorrectly posted.

Hope it’s untrue - you can never tell with social media at the moment

Rare Soul Talk fb page.

Just read this. Great loss to soul music.

Hi yes found it. Most of these are trashed!! My copy has superficial very light surface marks and just a light bit of label rub wear so I’d put a conservative VG++ to EX on it. I’ve played it in headphones and it plays EX+ to M-. Okeh sleeve too (a bit warn). See pics There is a chancer on Discogs with a M- copy over £200 (not sold!!). The last M- copy sold for £120 and VGs are selling for £60-£70 so il be looking for £100 + inc tracked/ insured UK post. Let me know as now I have it out I’ll probably be listing is soon.

How about this for a tenner M- £10 Tierra - wanna get together again -BOARDWALK

I think I have one of these - let me check today

Todays outings The Ad Libs - Appreciation / Giving Up UK DEEP SOUL £25 Vinyl has a slightly cloudy look but nothing that affects the record in any way.

I even found it on Spotify! Thx. Shame there isn’t some wonderful vocal on it but I still like it. Thanks for the research!!!!

Bingo!!! That is it. Who is it???

Thanks - The Peterson is a great track but this particular advert isn’t this track. For all I know it might be a sound bite that the advertising company created for the advert. Click on the link I posted and you can hear the track I’m asking about

I think I have the Tommie Young. I’ll check today

‘Fraid not - could have sold it 3 or 4 time when I listed it

Anyone There is a VRBO advert with a good sounding track being played on a deck. Is this an actual track or a made up thing for the advert. I think this link works on the first click only. if the link doesn’t work search YouTube for ‘relax dance one key’
