Prices are in US DOLLARS

Free & Easy "ËœPeace and love' (Carol G)

VG/VG-

Crackin' uptempo dancefloor beast of a tune that has sold for 300 quid. The bargain of the list and still to hit full potential on a dancefloor near you!

Price = $150

Count Yates "ËœAt the soul-in pts. 1 & 2' (New Bag)

VG/VG- (slight label wear/promo copy)

Stunning downtempo raw soul funk out of Hollywood. In the heady days of "ËœDeep Funk', this was an essential early doors spin, and became a big ticket item. Here it is at a much more agreeable price!

Clip; https://www.divshare....ad/19554479-651

Price = $100

Lil' Tiger "ËœDo it' (Geodol)

VG/VG+

From the same guy that brought you the soon-to-explode on the dancefloors cut "ËœFunky fight'....a prime example of quality ghetto raw funky soul. Hard, rare record!

Price = $60 **ON HOLD**

The Mojo Kid "ËœGot my mojo workin' (Getit)

Price = $50

Hal Bradbury "ËœCall me' (Fan)

Price = $50

MK. III "ËœThe wild board' (Fuller)

Kenny & Yvonne "ËœCome on and be my love' (Columbia)

VG++

I'd say this 45 is a tad under the radar....Kenny Rankin and his missus providing a pretty huge sounding northern a touch of popcorn belter. Smart for your dancefloor!
