THE LYRICS: Keep Me Close To Your Heart * J.W.J., strong VG+, 300.- Euro

FRANKIE ALLEN: Some Time Alone * C.R.S., Promo, VG+, 150.- Euro

Great and very rare Philly Sweet Soul. Vinyl has a non feelable surface mark, that keeps it form being mint. Playgrade is excellent, check the soundbyte!

GHETTO CHILDREN: It's Not Easy To Say Goodbye / Don't Take Your Sweet Lovin' Away * ROULETTE, Promo, VG++, wol and a very light lift, not affecting play at all, 80.- Euro, sold

Two fantastic uptempo 70's dance soul sides back to back with an irresistable Bobby Martin production anticipating the upcoming disco wave, but never neglecting the classic soul era. This record had some spins some 20 years ago on the UK Modern Soul scene and listening to it now, makes me wonder, which big name DJ starts the revival.

DONNIE TEE: Funky Rooster / Crusty * ROGA, VG+, 75.- Euro

North Carolina Funk kicking off with an amazing open drum break and despite the fact, that the drummer on this track really gets wicked, I have a weak spot for records imitating animals. Killer flip on top and needless to say that this is a record that rarely pops up for sale.

LEE McDONALD: Gotta Get Home / Show Me * DEBBIE, M-, 75.- Euro, on hold

Outstanding Modern Soul stepper from 1979. Top side is on the rare LP by Lee McDonald as well, but the 7" provides a different mix compared to the LP-take. Flip it over for a beautiful slow jam.

JOE BATAAN: Johnny * MERCIANA, VG, 75.- Euro

15 years ago, when Joe Bataan started touring again, he guested in the Mojo Club on the Reeperbahn in Hamburg. When he came back on stage for his encores he asked the audience, if there's a particular song, that they want to hear. someone screamed "Johnny" and 10 seconds later the crowd danced to this 1973 funky Latin Soul masterpiece like they never danced before.
This copy unfortunately has a 1cm scratch, right in the middle of the tune, that causes some clicks, nothing to bad and a repair job would fix this easily. Check the soundfile before ordering please!

JOHN WILLIAMS & THE TICK TOCKS:  Do Me Like You Do Me / Blues, Tears And Sorrows * SANSU, promo, M-, 60.- Euro, on hold

Bargain price for a legendary New Orleans soul 45. One side provides a top notch 60's dancer, that had plays on the Northern Soul scene. Flipside is one of the finest deep soul ballads recorded in the crescent city. This copy has the label of "Do Me..." glued on twice, it would be easy to remove the upper label, I leave that up to the new owner.

CHARLES JOHNSON: Good Good Lovin'* * DASH, promo, M-, 50.- Euro, sold

A record, that suffers the sad fate called "his other record". Everybody knows and adores Charles Johnsons immortal "Never had a love so good" and a classic like this overshadows everything else in your Œuvre. A huge mistake, "Good Good Lovin'" is equally great and costs a fraction of his big one. Check the soundbyte and get blown away by a perfect Florida Modern Soul dancer.

THE YOUNG HOLT TRIO: Ain't There Something Money Can't Buy * BRUNSWICK, M-, 50.- Euro

This Chicago trio never needed more than a Piano, an upright bass and a set of drums to create some irresistable jazzy grooves. Gangstarr sampled this and Nick Waterhouse plays "Ain't There Something..." in his live sets. Clean copy in it's original birth sleeve.

soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/youngholtainttheresome.mp3


xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

MADELINE & THE MONTICELLOS: Binding Ring Of Gold * DE-VEL, promo, VG+, 50.- Euro, sold

OTTO DE ROJAS Y LOS ULTRAS 76: Al Ritmo Del Bump-Bump * RCA, Made in Peru, wol, VG+, 40.- Euro, sold

Killer funky latin-soul take of Young Holt Unlimited's "Soulful Strut" with that certain "Tighten Up"-feel, that works so very well on the dance floor. Only released in Peru, a few mild clicks during the opening bars, after that this copy plays almost perfect.

soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/ottoalrittmo.mp3

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

TONY ASHLEY: I'll Never Be Satisfied / All Along I've Loved You * FORTE, M-, 40.- Euro

One of the great unsung heroes of soulmusic's long history. He recorded only three 45s in his short career and was shot dead aged 29 in front of his workplace. This is Tony Ashley's (miscredited here as Tony Ashly) debut for Forte records in Kansas City and both sides provide lovely indie label soulmusic. The flip really gets my juices flowing with it's deep soul flavour, if you like it more raw and funky, check out the featured side "I'll Never Be Satisfied"..

WINDY CITY: We Party Heavy Up In Heah / Good Guys Don't Always Win * INNOVATION II, VG++/VG-, 35.- Euro

SYL JOHNSON: Going To The Shack / Don't Give It Away * TWINIGHT, VG++, 30.- Euro, on hold

In my little book the best two-sider Syl Johnson recorded for Twinight records. "Going To The Shack" is a blasting funky soul track, that sounds incredible played out loud, while the flipside comes with a very solid mid- to uptempo groove.

UNTOUCHABLE MACHINE SHOP: Machine Shop * WAVELENGTH, VG+, 25.- Euro, sold

There are records, that leave a big question mark in my brain. What the f*ck is an "Untouchable Machine Shop"? And how does a name like this can get connected to an extraordinaire free funk  track? Anyway, this is a fantastic funk record driven by an unstoppable wah-wah-guitar, heavy beats and raunchy basslines. Clean playing copy with barely noticable surface marks.

soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/untouchablemachineshop.mp3

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

DIAMOND JOE: The ABC Song / Look Way Back * DEESU, promo, M-, 25.- Euro

HEYWOOD CASH: Give It Up * EPIC, promo, M-, 25.- Euro, sold

Terry Woodford and Clayton Ivey on the controls for this masterpiece of 70's dance soul. Yes, of course, the demo is way more common than the issue copy with the fantastic "You're Messing Up A Good Thing" on the flipside, but it's ten times cheaper too.

An intense funky instrumental with Johny Jones picking some funky lines out of his guitar and surely a prime example of a Blues player getting funky. Before he recorded three great records for Brunswick and Peachtree Jimi Hendrix was a member of his band and you can surely hear Jimi's influence in Johnny Jones' guitar style.

JAMES CARR: The Dark End Of The Street * GOLDWAX, VG++, label glued on off-centre, 20.- Euro, on hold

In 1967 Dan Penn and Chips Moman wrote "The Dark End Of The Street" for James Carr and for many soulfans, this is the most important record of the classic era. Deep soul never sounded more lonesome and lost than on this groundbreaking recording. Every home should have one is a lousy seller catchphrase, but in this case, I feel it's justified. Label is glued on off-centre, the record is NOT off-centre.

The crossover soul flipside to Bob Relf's Northern classic "Blowin' My Mind To Pieces" performned by the Olympics with a slight change in the lyrics, they replaced "Wonderful" with "People". Anyway, great record by a veteran group, that had big hits with novelty R&B tunes during the 50's and 60's. Record has multiple surface marks causing some pops and crackles, nothing too bad and priced accordingly. Check the soundbyte before placing an order!
