Shorter list than usual this week folks...

USA ORIGINALS...

BEN ATKINS & THE NOMADS - COME ON OVER - YOUNGSTOWN VG++ 60

Superb Memphis stomper - usually 150+

THE BLACK EYED PEAS - SMALLEST MAN ALIVE - ULTRA CITY EX+ 100

Great copy, superb track

RITCHIE BROWN - UPTIGHT - HIT EX 40

Used to get played a lot at Wigan, tough original

JOHNNY BRAGG - THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT ME - ELBEJAY with PIC SLEEVE M 50

A real mint beauty and it comes with the promotional pic sleeve with photo of Johnny and biography on the back. Sleeve is EX

TERRI BRYANT - GENI - VERVE VG 25

Graded VG because it has a scratch which you can just about hear in the background

KIKI DEE - I DIG YOU BABY - WORLD PACIFIC DEMO EX 30

Don't think this got a UK 45 release - really nice midtempo/beat ballad track with the brilliant "Small Town" on B side

SHAWN ELLIOTT - THE JOKER - ROULETTE EX+ 45

Big record a few years back - this is the French EP with 3 other tracks, sleeve is mint

FOUR TOPS - SOMETHING ABOUT YOU - MOTOWN DEMO EX 25

Couldn't resist this, map label white demo

THE FALCONS - GOOD GOOD FEELING / LOVE YOU LIKE YOU NEVER BEEN LOVED - BIG WHEEL EX 200

Phenomenal double sider in great condition. Little sticker on "Feeling" side and a non-sounding mark. Great copy though and first time I've ever had it I think

BONNIE HERMAN - HUSH DON'T CRY - COLUMBIA DEMO EX 225

Brilliant dancer

JOEY HEATHERTON - WHEN YOU CALL ME BABY - DECCA DEMO EX 100

Wigan classic, few paper scuff marks but plays a blinder

THE JEWELS - WE GOT TOGETHERNESS - MGM DEMO EX+ 50

Again, a few paper marks but plays mint/mint minus

EMANUEL LASKEY - I'M A PEACE LOVING MAN / SWEET LIES - THELMA VG+/EX 65

Hard to grade because it does have a lot of marks (not real scratches, just marks) but plays beautifully on both sides. Good price for a great double sider which plays spot-on

LITTLE HENRY LEE - BETTER USE YOUR HEAD - GISMO DEMO EX 50

Probably the rarest version, I don't like it myself but I had half a dozen calls on it last time I had it so thought I may as well pick it up again

MARLINA MARS - JUST ANOTHER DANCE - OKEH DEMO VG+ 50

Strange one, books at 150 for a demo and 200 for an issue, nice enough but 200? This one looks a little worn but plays fine

PRINCE PHILLIP - WHATCHA GONNA DO NOW / ANOTHER FOOL LIKE ME - LOLLIPOP M- 100

Had a lesser copy of this the other week, this one's the best I've ever seen, half book price. This is Phillip Mitchell's first single I think

THE QUEEN CITY SHOWBAND - TRUE PATRON OF THE ARTS - POW DEMO EX+ 60

Gorgeous copy, this was covered up a few years ago when anyone collecting British had had it for 20 years  storming instrumental though

CINDY SCOTT - WORLD OF HAPPINESS - HARTHON M- 30

The vocal of Bird Walkin (inst on the flip) released as a very limited UK promo 8 or 9 years ago

THEO COFF INVASION - LUCKY DAY - DEARBORN DEMO EX 40

Two really nice Detroit instrumentals, "Nocturnal Flower" on the other side is great

TASHA THOMAS - I SAW THE SKY - ROULETTE DEMO M- 60

Brilliant version of Verdelle Smith's "A Piece Iof The Sky" uitilising the same backing track - very rare in this condition..little water stain on the edge of the label

GINO WASHINGTON - NOW YOU'RE LONELY - WIG M 40

Pristine red stock copy, cracking Detroit dancer
