Docfish Posted February 6, 2023 Posted February 6, 2023 (edited) To order: PM me . Records will be reserved on a strict first come, first served basis. No matter how big your order is, 8.- Euro flat unless you want registered postage! I recomend registration for all orders over 50.- Euro for additional cost of 3.- Euros. The list is not really sorted, so you find Funk, next to Northern and R&B next to Modern. Prices are in Euro!!! Grading: Goldmine grading system - M- / VG++/ VG+ / VG / VG- etc. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx THE SIGNIFICANTS: I'm Loving To Hard / One Kindness Deserves Another * ALESVER'S, VG++, 500.- Euro, sold Sweet / Crossover Soul grail from the sunhine state and for sure a tough pull. Excellent group harmonies on two superb songs. If only the engineer wouldn't be half deaf and had better recording equipment, but all copies sound like they where recorded under a blanket and if you want this, you have to live with the fact, that this is the mother of what they call Lo-Fi-Soul. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/significnatsimlovingtoo.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/significantsonekindness.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx THE SOULETTES: Find Somebody New * DUD SOUND, M-, 450.- Euro, sold Rare sweet Chicago soul on Oscar Coleman's Dud Sound output.

Here we have a superb group soul dancer, that ticks all the boxes. Clean copy, that never ever needs an upgrade. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/symphonicsblackgold.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx THE NEW CLARENCE REID: Cadillac Annie / Tired Blood * DEEP CITY, VG++, 200.- Euro Great and very rare 60's Miami soul on the legendary Deep City outlet. This is the local first press from 1967 before Phil-L.A.-Of-Soul took over for national distribution. Great funky soul for the dancefloor backed up by a mighty fine ballad. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/clarencereidcadillac.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/clarencereidtired.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CHARLES FARREN: You've Changed My Whole Life Around * HAWK, VG++, 200.- Euro Rare Chicago 60's soul mover in it's eyepopping ortiginal distribution sleeve.

Vinyl has a non feelable surface mark, that keeps it form being mint. Playgrade is excellent, check the soundbyte! soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/frankieallentimealone.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx BABY LEO & THE MISSISSIPPI UPSETTERS: Rich Man * NO LABEL, M-, 75.- Euro, sold Quirky southern funk with amessage on this hard to find private pressed 45.

Actually without this spot this copy would be in VG++ condition. The wicked Pickett right before he became one of soulmusic biggest stars with a pounding uptempo dancer. A record, that almost has a Ska-beat underneath and how nice does it look in it's original Verve distribution sleeve? soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/wilsonletmebeyourboy.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx MILL EVANS: When I'm Ready * TOU-SEA; promo, sticker on lbl, M-, 75.- Euro Mislabeled copy, that has a sticker with the correct title on it (see picture). Excellent Chicago soul, that ended up on Marshall Seahorn and AllenToussaint's label in New Orleans. How the hell did that happen? Anyway, great atmospheric 60's dance soul and a favourite of the Northern Soul crowd for good reason. Check the soundbyte for a blast from the past! soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/millevanswhenimready.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx LEE McDONALD: Gotta Get Home / Show Me * DEBBIE, M-, 75.- Euro 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. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/leemcdonaldgottagethome.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/leemcdonaldshowme1.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx BROWN SUGAR: The Game Is Over / I'm Going Through Changes Now * CAPITOL, promo, M-, label damage, 65.- Euro, sold Philly 70's soul masterpiece arranged and produced by the great Vince Montana. Two fantastic sides, that stand the test of time. I personally prefer the flipside, but the featured side is the DJ choice for most jocks. Vinyl is extra clean M-, only the labels have some H20-damage. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/brownsugarthegame1.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/brownsugarimgoing1.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx THE VARIATIONS Of LOVE: I'll Always Love You / Reach For The Truth * GOLD PLATE, VG++, 50.- Euro, on hold Excellent Big Apple sweet soul from 1975. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/variationsofloveillalaways.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/variationsofreachforthe.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx DELL-VIKINGS: Finger Poppin' Woman * White label test press, strong VG+, 50.- Euro, sold Probably the rarest format for this excellent 70's dancer by veteran group the Dell-Vikings, who kicked off their career in 1955 and more then 20 years later they still harmonize like they where standing on street corner in Pittsburgh. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/dellvikingsfingerpop.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ONYX: You Never Fail To Amaze Me * YEW, M-, 50.- Euro, sold Super clean copy of this amazing fingersnapping 1970's dancer.

My favourite record of the list and it's affordable too! soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/margieevanswaterfalls.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx VANEESE & CAROLYN: Let Me In / I'm Losing You * POLYDOR, VG++, 40.- Euro, sold Rare issue copy of this mighty fine 70's soul two-sider. Top side is a nice funky dancer, while the flip goes for a soulful slower pace. Strange enough, most of the 70's Polydor Issue releases are rare, probably because they where destroyed to make room in their warehouses. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/vaneeseletmein.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/vaneeseimlosingyou.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx THE ORIGINAL BREED: The Prophet / I'm Somebody * KAROL, M-, 40.- Euro, sold Clean copy of this superb crossover soul winner with an ovverlooked social aware ballad flipside. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/originalbreedtheprophet.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/originalbreediamsomebody.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Z.Z. HILL: Don't Make Promises (You Can't Keep) / Set Your Sights Higher * KENT, Promo, VG+, "x" on lbl flipside, 35.- Euro Z. Z.'s best soul record by far; two magnificiants sides to chose from and the guy recorded a shit load of fine records between 1963 and 1995. "Don't make Promises" shares the same backintrack as Eddie Rey's "I've Got Something Of Value", but "Don't Make Promises" is way better and much cheaper too. This is the rarer promo, the vinyl has light marks and plays excellent. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/zzhilldontmakepromis.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/zzhillsetyoursights.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx TONY OWENS: Woman, I Got To Leave You * SANSU, M-, 40.- Euro, sold Great New Orleans 70's dancer, way underarretd and something, that would sound great in every Modern room.

Joe Bataan's take on the Gil Scott-Heron classic is nothing less then a DJ-essential, while the flipside is an overlooked midtempo beauty. You need the issue of this, as the promo copies are on styrene and only the issues are on proper DJ-friendly vinyl. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/joebataanthebottle.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/joebataanfunkymambo.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx UNITED VOICE BLACK WHITE FAMILY: Make It Last * UNITED VOICE, M-, 30.- Euro Great early 70's gospel message song with a crossover feel to it. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/unitedvoicemakeit.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ANGELA DAVIS & REUBIN FISHER: Time Don't Wait On No One * FLAMING ARROW, M-, 30.- Euro, on hold To the best of my knowledge this record wasn't in the Flaming Arrow / Crow haul from a few years back and it's a great Detroit crossover mover and despite an obscure live LP from 1986 Angela Davis' duet partner Reuben Fisher is an unknown to the soul collecting world. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/angeladavistimedont.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ANDREW JEFFERIES: Not Like Just Any Girl / Slipped Into A Groove * QUEEN, M-, 30.- Euro Two mighty fine 70's soul sides back to back, co-produced by Chicago's Simtec Simmons. It's mastered by "Audio Labs", a company in Chicago, so this is most likely a windy city sound. Not widely known and nothing that you see everyday. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/andrewjeffereiesnotlike.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/andrewjefferieslippedinto.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ERNIE SHELBY: Right Here Where You Left Me / Carry Me * POLYDOR, M-, wol, 40.- Euro Two great sides on this Polydor issue. The flipside "Right Here Where You Left Me" is my personal favouritre from the two, written by George Soule and Terry Woodford and recorded at Quinvy Studios in Sheffield Alabama. "Carry Me" is co-penned by Phillip Mitchell. I scanned the "Carry Me"-side as it has some significant writings on the label, the flipside label is clean. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/ernieshelbyrighthere1.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/ernieshelbycarryme.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ERNIE SHELBY: Punish Me / Bend Over Backwards * POLYDOR, M-, mild storage warp, 30.- Euro Polydor's A&R man for soulmusic definitely had good taste, some great records came out on this major label. Most of them didn't sell at all and are highly collectable these days. Especially the issues, that in many cases have the better track on it then the mono/stereo promos. Here we have an overlooked Muscle Shoals production co-written by Phillip Mitchell (flipside is co-written by George Soule, who also played drums on both sides) and produced by Clayton Ivey and Terry Woodford. Two stunning southern soul sides by a guy, who only released six 45s in his career soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/ernieshelbypunishme.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/ernieshelbybendover.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx THE VANGUARDS: Somebody Please / I Can't Use You Girl * WHIZ, VG to VG+, wol, 25.- Euro Affordable sweet soul goodie from this Indianapolis based band, who recorded a handful of highly collectable 45s for the Lamp label. Flip it over for a more then decent dancer. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/vanguardssomebody1.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/vanguardsicantuse.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx "LITTLE" JOHNNY BLAIR: Momma's Gone * HOUSE OF THE FOX, VG+, 30.- Euro Pounding slice of funky edged Northern Soul, action packed, super soulful and so much better than most of the big ticket items. Check the soundbyte! soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/littlejohnnyblairmomma1.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ARTIE CHRISTOPHER: My Baby's Crying / Don't Try It Again * 5-HIGH, VG++, 30.- Euro A fantastic deep soul record with an equally great uptempo cut on the flip. Let's hear what sir shambling has to say about this record: "Although he recorded a few 45s under the name “Artie Christopher” I’m 99% sure that this is really Johnny Christopher, the guitarist/songwriter who is best known in soul circles for his work with Chips Moman at his American Studio in Memphis. Christopher’s musical credits are both lengthy and impressive but I want to concentrate here on the soul side of his personality. His initial single under his nom-de-disque included the superb deep soul ballad "My Baby's Crying". This has all the ingredients that I love in this genre – some simple gospel chord changes, fine organ/piano accompaniment, a gently cooing chorus and some rich horns. On top of which “Artie” does a really bang-up job of expressing the emotional angst of his own lyric. Was this cut in Nashville? Or Atlanta – where Johnny came from? I don’t know. The flip – and both sides of the second Atlantic 45 were certainly cut at American." soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/artiechristophermybabyscry.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/artiechristopherdonttry.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx THE APOSTLES: Six Pack * KAPP, VG+, 25.- Euro An action packed funk song about beer, well about 6 beers to be precise!

I actually prefer the inbstrumental B-side, but both sides are great and this copy is clean as a whistle. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/pacesetterspushon.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/pacesettersfreedomand.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CHARLES JOHNSON: Take The Time * RICHBURG, M-, 25.- Euro, on hold Still cheap gospel funk goodie in immaculate condition.

Diamond Joe recorded some fabulous 60's side for Sansu records and is surely one of the most underrated vocalists from the the Big Easy. I'm down to my last copy of this! soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/diamondjoeabcsong.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/diamondjoeelookway.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx LITTLE ARCHIE: I Am A Carpet / I Need You * DIAL, promo, VG++, 25.- Euro, on hold Little Archie, who's real name is Archie Himon, only recoded two 45s for Buddy Killen's Dial output and you urgently need both of them. Maximum Soul with a capital "S" here!

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/untouchablemachmachine.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx THE LIVE EXPERIENCE: Disco Joint * E&B, VG++, wol, 20.- Euro, on hold Banging club funk tune, that got nothing to do with "disco" as the title might suggest.

Written by Mack Rice, who was a member of the Falcons and wrote "Mustang Sally" for Wilson Pickett. This is great catchy dancer and a bit underrated in my humble opinion. Vinyl has mild surface marks and plays excellent. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/bobbywilliamskeeponlov.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx DEXTER WANSEL: New Beginning * PHILADEHIA INTERNATIONAL, promo, M-, 15.- Euro Simply wonderful jazzy stepper and this copy is as clean as it gets. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/dexterwanselnewbegin.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx THE DA-KARS: A Shot In The Dark * JOSIE, M-, label tear on flip, 15.- Euro Cool funky instrumental with sloppy drums, sharp horns and a slick Bert Keyes arrangement. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/dakarsashotinthedark.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx JAY DEE BRYANT: Get It / You're Hurting Me * ENJOY, VG+, 15.- Euro James Brown styled funk backed up by a sinsiter deep soul ballad. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/jaydeebryantgetit1.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/jaydeebryantyourehurt.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx GENE MIDDLETON & THE SOLE SURVIVORS: Stop - Where You Are * D and B, VG++, 15.- Euro Great slice of 60's Florida soul with a catchy beat and great vocals. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/genemiddletonstopwhere.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx LITTLE JERRY WILLIAMS: I'm The Lover Man / The Push, Push, Push * SOUTHERN SOUND, VG, 15.- Euro Early release by Jerry Williams, who later morphed into Swamp Dogg and recorded a bunch of great records and is still active today.
