Dana Valery – You don’t know where your interest lies / Having you around – Columbia 4-44004 DJ Copy

All-time classic northern oldie. Bootlegged on various occasions but this is the real deal.

Visual grade: EX

€600

 

Jimmy Sabater – Times are changin’ / My memories of you – Tico 570

Infectious Boogaloo jam that was always in my 'sure shot to get the party started if I can't get the crowd moving' part of the playbox.

Visual grade: VG+

€250

 

Deviations & Deviation Band – Loving you / Boogie to the beat – Panky 504

Rare as hens teeth Belgian PS version of this Ohio sweet soul winner. Looks unplayed but plays with some minor crackling due to pressing.

Visual grade: EX

€175

 

Edward Hamilton & The Natural Looks – Willing mind / My darling baby – Mary Jane 1111

Eye-wateringly pretty Detroit ballad. My favourite from him as the slower pace really gives his voice the chance to shine. And shine it does.

Visual grade: VG+

€175

 

Sam Hill – Yes, yes I love you / Please Mr. D.J. – Dee Vee

Leftfield Alabama deep soul with more than a touch of Screaming Jay Hawkins.

Visual grade: EX

€125

 

Big Mama Thornton – Wade in the water / Ball and chain – Arhoolie 45-520

Scorching version that sets dance floors alight.

Visual grade: Strong VG

€120

 

Nolan Porter – If I could only be sure / Work it out in the morning – Probe 2C 008 – 95.102

French issue of this all-time classic. No PS but a very strong player that has served me well for years.

Visual grade: Strong VG

€100

 

Little Willie John – It only hurts a little while / Rock love – King 45-5870

Mid-tempo dancer with a soaring performance from one of the greats of the R&B era.

Visual grade: VG+, minor warp

€100
