***TASTY SOUL RARITIES - REDUCED PRICES ***

 

A quality selection of reduced rare soul goodies from right across the board - R&B to modern. They’re all bits & pieces from previous lists with some hard to find gems looking for new homes. All records are conservatively graded, with some youtube clips (not from the actual vinyl for sale) & some photographs for reference.

 

I’m always open to reasonable offers so feel free to ask - It’ll only be a ‘no’ at worst.

 

Payment by Paypal - Friends & family or +4% PP charge; UK postage is £7.00 special delivery, worldwide postage on request. PM me if you’re interested & thanks for looking

 

BACK BAY BREW -  IS IT FOR REAL - (GIRL IT’S YOU/IT’S ALL OVER/IS IT FOR REAL E.P) - BACK BAY BREW - VG+ £175 SOLD

MID 70’S JAZZY MODERN SOUL RARITY OUT OF MILWAUKEE. HARD TO FIND PRIVATE RELEASE E.P ; “IS IT FOR REAL” HAS BEEN A SPIN FOR IAN WRIGHT OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS (I FIRST HEARD IT AT MOS FROM IAN, THINKING THE NAME WAS A COVER UP) WITH THE SORT OF MODERN SOUL/JAZZ FUSION APPEAL THAT RECORDS LIKE THOMAS EAST, PATRICK GAMMON & JESUS ALVAREZ HAVE MADE POPULAR ON THE MODERN SCENE.  THIS IS STILL A RELATIVE UNKNOWN WITH SOME SERIOUS POTENTIAL AND IS STILL PRETTY ELUSIVE IN ANY CONDITION. THERE’S A FEW MARKS ON THE SURFACE OF BOTH SIDES AND THE LABEL IS TEA/COFFEE STAINED, BUT PLAYS THROUGH EXCELLENT. HARD TO FIND MODERN MAGIC
