Leroy Jones Jr Anyone Know This Track Please?

[Pete S]

No point asking me what I think of this particular record, but I just wondered if anyone knew it as someone asked me if I wanted to sell it. It's a modern dancer (I say modern, it's the sort of thing that would have been played at Cleethorpes) and has a kind of isley brothers guitar sound.

There is no label named, which probably didn't help sales, number is U-64523

Other side is a nice sweet soul type ballad.

Anyone know it? Price?

Googled it and only came up with below

https://www.midwest45...isFunkPage.html (scroll down) has this as an Illinois record but

this site has it as possibly Indiana

https://www.indiana45...ndiana45s_j.php

The Indiana site has a rarity rating of "5" but I can't find what scale they use so it's meaningless.

Plus there was a "want" for it on fryer-mantis

Apart from that zilch

I think it's a different artist Baz, this guy is leroy Jones Jr and the recordings on hit must have been a decade earlier - and from texas weren't they?

Obviously this sort of record is not my cup of tea and I will happily let it go but I've made so many cock ups with this type of record that I really would like to find out what it's actually worth and sell it or swap it for that amount. Or offers, don't care.

Listed as a 5 outta 10 for rarity on the site but no prices?

Baz obviously likes it ,so get him to make a offer,he's honest with his sales on here,not a rip off,just like yourself.

Good luck

Thanks for putting up the track, Pete, as with the other posters, I liked that; was a bit funky, especially in some circles, I'd guess, but, still, a nice track, and dancer...

I'm pretty sure this is Chicago and not Indiana. Pretty hard to find record, hard to find clean, I would say $100-$200 mint, but not well known.
