R&B rocker, nice white demo

Rockin' R&B Instro

70s/Crossover/Modern:

EARLINE OWENS – GO ON WITHOUT YOU/STONE TO THE BONE – AR'NETT (VG++) £10
Very obscure bluesy 80s dancer. Flip is a great piece of 70s crossover but suffers badly from very low-fi pressing quality. Obviously dubbed from another disc.

THE MAJORS - IT ONLY HAPPENS (WHEN I LOOK AT YOU) - MAGNET (VG+/VG+) £10
Great Euro only version of Jackie Wilson. Nice picture sleeve for this hard to find german issue. Record plays EX but has some hardly visible spots from being stored in a damp environment for some time hence grading. Does not affect play at all.

MISC. EURO RELEASES

NEW BOB & EARL – EVERYBODY JERK (WARNER BROS) EX £15
Nice UK issue, no US release for this Harlem Shuffle soundalike.

GARY KNIGHT/BELLE BENCHLEY - NIGHT PEOPLE/MY BOY (withdrawn STARDUST) EX £10
Northern b/w Popcorn. Both sides previously unissued. Release was immediately withdrawn as most copies were warped. This issue here is one of only a few left that plays fine.

WAYNE FONTANA - IT WAS EASIER TO HURT HER - FONTANA UK (VG++, sm wol on flip) £5
Credible cover of Garnet Mimms

MOTOWN SPECIAL – 10 45's for ~~£15~~ £12 incl worldwide P&P
As you can see in the scans, these records had a really hard past. However, due to the heavy duty vinyl quality of Motown records, they all have plenty of life left in them. Even though many grade as G+ visually, all play through w/out any skips or major noise, I'd say average play grading VG/VG+. Therefore I decided to offer them here on Soul Source for just £12 incl P&P world instead throwing them away.
