THE VELVETS – BABY THE MAGIC IS GONE / LET THE FOOL KISS YOU – MONUMENT DEMO EX100

Two great sides especially the beat ballad “Baby”

THE BALLADS – I CAN SEE YOUR LOVE – WEE VG++ 40 (75) SOLD

Rare 1st pressing, local California label with Oakland address

IDLE FEW – PEOPLE THAT’S WAY – BLUE BOOK DEMO EX+ 100 (125)

100% guaranteed original white demo. Has a faint address stampo on the label.

MARGARET MANDOLPH – SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL – PLANETARY VG++ 275 (300) SOLD

Try and find one of these nowadays – stunning black label original. One click on the intro accounts for me downgrading it. The B side has a scratch though, and it clicks for half the record.

ROY ROBERTS – GOT TO HAVE YOUR LOVE – NINANDY DEMO M 150 (200)

Stunning white demo, flawless

JIMMY RUFFIN – DON’T FEEL SORRY FOR ME – MIRACLE DEMO EX- 100 (125)

Plays perfect but has a little glue where the label meets the run off (not on the playing surface), label must have been coming off so some clumsy person was a little off target with the Pritt stick

THE VOLCANOS – IT’S AGAINST THE LAWS OF LOVE – ARCTIC EX 40 (50)

Pale blue original

LEVON & THE HAWKS –HE DON’T LOVE YOU / STONES THAT I THROW – ATCO M- 40 (50)

Still a big spin

THE SHEPPARDS – WALKIN’ – OKEH DEMO M- 40 (50)

Nice early dancer

PETE ANTELL – LAND OF LOVE – ULTRA SONIC RECORDING STUDIOS ACETATE EX 75 (125)

Totally different, earlier version of this great midtempo dancer – a one off

NITA ROSSI – SOMETHING TO GIVE – DUTCH PYE WITH PIC SLEEVE M- 30 (50)

Lovely 60’s piece this, looks like the UK Pye issue but has a great pic sleeve of Nita Rossi herself

I know I'm p*ssing on my own bonfire but I think it's a sh*t version compared to all the others - he makes george lemons sound like Pavarotti
