Docfish Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 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 SOUTHERN COMFORT & FRIENDS: It's In My Letter * SUN CITY, VG+, 1800.- Euro Driving uptempo Modern Soul and a record, that never really reached a wider audience. Probably due to it's rarity with less than 10 copies in collectors hands. It popped up lately on some playlists by the likes of Butch and Mr. Fish. This is a spare copy and I would never give away my mine. A few light marks on vinyl, that doesn't affect play. Trades are welcome on this... soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/southerncomfortitsinmy.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx THE REGENTS: What'Cha Gonna Do / I Tried With You * MAD, strong VG, 250.- Euro Widely unknown Northern Soul double sider with a nice and catchy garage feel to it. Two good sides back to back! Mild surface marks on vinyl, that most dealers would grade VG+. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/regentswhatcha.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/regentsitriedwithyou.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx MONROE TAYLOR: Proud Guy / Monkey Jerk * CHESAPEAKE, M-, 80.- Euro, sold Two great 60's dance sides back to back. Nice clean issue copy, that never needs an upgrade. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/monroetaylorproudguy.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/monroetaylormonkeyjerk.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx MAMIE BRADLEY: I Feel Like A Million / The Patty Cake * SUE, VG to VG+, mild warp nap, 75.- Euro, on hold R&B Northern Soul rarity, recorded in the late 50's and sounding way ahead of it's time. I'm not a big R&B fan, but I really like this one. Flipside is quality as well. Record has a mild warp and surface marks, but plays like a champ and I believe I priced it accordingly - a minter would easily fetch 150! soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/mamiebradleyiffellike.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/mamiebradleythepatty.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 GENE CHANDLER: There Was A Time * BRUNSWICK, VG+, 50.- Euro Great funky edged soul dancer by Chicago's native Gene Chandler. Action packed 3 and a half minutes for the DJs out there. Vinyl has mild surface marks and plays without any issues. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/genechandlertherewasatime.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CHARLES GRAY with LES WATSON AND THE PANTHERS: Don't Do It / I Found A Love * VILLAGE, VG, wol, 50.- Euro Rocking early soul from Dallas / Texas and the very first single by local show and soul band Les Watson & The Panthers. Flipside offers a nice take on the Falcons classic "I Found A Love". A hard to find record and a piece of Texas Soul history. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/charlesgreydontdoit.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/charlesgrayifound.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx THE PAZANT BROTHERS: Work Song / Juicy Lucy * GWP, promo, VG+, small label tear on flip, 40.- Euro, on hold This record could not have recorded somewhere else then New Orleans. Sophisticated chaos defines what happens here with a second line beat and honking horns - I guess the musicians had a lot of fun in the studio when recording this. I adore records like this and you should too! soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/pazantbrosworksong.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/pazantbrosjuicy.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx SUADE: Open Up Your Mind (To My Mind) * RED LINE, VG-, wol, 40.- Euro Detroit 70's midtempo rarity, lurking into sweet soul category. The record plays slightly crackly during the first few bars, but clears up nicely. Great and rare record with some legendary names on the production and songwriting side.. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/suaveopenupyour.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx THE ONCOMING TIMES: If You Had my Love / What Is Life Without Love * DUO, VG++, 40.- Euro Two might fine sides arranged by the great Donny Hathaway. Top side provides a catchyand melodic girlie dancer and the ballad flip ain't too shabby either. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/oncmingtimesifyouhadmy.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/oncomingtimeswhatislife.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx LEE ANDREWS AND THE HEARTS: Quiet As It Kept / You're Taking A Long Time Coming Back * RCA VICTOR, Promo, VG+, 40.- Euro Doo Wop veterans Lee Andrews with his Hearts provide a great latin influenced dancer on the top side. Flipside goes into slow group soul territory and is very nice on it's own. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/leeandrewsquietasitskept.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/leeandrewsyouretaking.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx THE OHIO PLAYERS: You Don't Mean It / Trespassin' * COMPASS, VG+, 40.- Euro The original version of "You Don't Mean It" from 1967, that found fame on the Northern scene by Towanda Barnes' performance on A&M. The flipside was covered by the Skullsnaps for their legendary LP on GSF. Light marks on vinyl and the whole thing plays excellent! soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/ohioplayersyoudontmean.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/ohioplayerstrespassing.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx MARK MURPHY: Why Don't You Do Right? * RIVERSIDE, VG+, 40.- Euro Mod Jazz dancer from the top shelf and the best version of this beloved Joe McCoy tune. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/markmurphywhydontyou.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx COKE ESCOVEDO: Make It Sweet * MERCURY, M-, "x" on lbl, 40.- Euro Nice and clean copy of this stunning funky 70's soul dancer. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/cokeescovedomakeit.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx EDDIE HOUSTON: I Can't Go Wrong / That's How Much * CAPITOL, Made in France, Vinyl: M- / Sleeve: VG++, 30.- Euro Fantastic slice of funky R&B on a beautiful looking french artsleeve issue. Top side is an underrated 60's club soul banger, that sounds ace played out loud. Flip it over for a mighty fine deep soul ballad (the actual A-side of this record, but this record will most likely sell for the dance side) soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/eddiehoustonicantgowrong.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/eddiehoustonthatshowmuch1.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx N. F. PORTER: Keep On Keeping On * LIZARD, VG+, 30.- Euro, on hold Northern Soul classic by N.F. (Nolan) Porter in immaculate shape. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/nfporterkeeepon.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx J.B. TROY: Ain't It The Truth * MUSICOR, VG to VG+, drill hole in label, 30.- Euro Uptempo 60's soul mover written by James Bailey, former member of the Doo-Wop group the Cadillas and later a succesfuk songwriter for the likes of Isaac Hayes, Main Ingredient and many more. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/jbtroyaintitthetruth1.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx MARIE FRANKLIN: Bad Bad Woman * WESTBOUND, promo, wol, M-, 30.- Euro Sister Funk banger on Detroit's legendary Westbound imprint. Heavy writings on Mono side, clean labels on the Stereo side. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/mariefranklinbadbad.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx RAY CRUMLEY: All The Way In Love With You * ALARM, M-, 35.- Euro If quality would be the indication for the price of a record, this baby here would fly out for three figures easily. Ray Crumley was the lead singer for the Solid Gold Revue, who recorded an incredible rare and great LP and he had 3 releases on Alarm records, that are all worth checking out. This is pure dancefloor dynamite, that got ignored by all major jocks for reasons unknown to me. Check the soundbyte! soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/raycrumleyallthewayin.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx FREDDIE WILSON: What Would It Be Like * GRANDVILLE, M-, 30.- Euro Albany/Georgia funky banger from 1972, co-written by Jesse Boone, who recorded some remarkable 45s on Soul-Po-Tion and Albradella records. Super dancefloor filling funky soul with some soulful hollering by Mr. Wilson. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/freddiewilsonwhatwoulditbe.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ANGELA DAVIS & REUBIN FISHER: Time Don't Wait On No One * FLAMING ARROW, M-, 30.- Euro Semi known Detroit crossover goodie on Eugene Davis Flaming Arrow output. And yes, this is the same Angela Davis, who recorded the floorfiller "My Love Is So Strong", her duet partner Reubin Fisher remains a mystery though, I couldn't find out anything about him, except singing on this little gem here. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/angeladavistimewaits.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ELLOIT SMALL: Girls Are Made For Loving * NEW SOUND, VG+, warped plays through with no problems, 30.- Euro Half price on this rare local first release before Bang took over for national distribution. Record is mildly warped, but plays without extra tracking on both of my turntables. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/Elloitsmallgirlsaremade.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CORDELLS: You Do A Thing To My Mind * STEEL TOWN SOUND, INC., strong VG, near VG+, mild label damage, 30.- Euro Frantic 60's uptempo dancer on a tiny Pittsburgh label. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/cordellsyoudoathing1.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 WOOD BRASS AND STEEL: Hey What's That You Say / A Love Of My Own * ASTROSCOPE, M-, mild warp not affecting play, 30.- Euro Another original, that the Skull Snaps covered for their legendary GSF LP. "Hey What's That You Say" is the same song as the funk breakbeat classic "It's A New Day. A great slab of funky soul on a subsidiary of All Platinum and not the easiest record to find. Flip it over for a great ballad, way better then some of the big ticket items, that sweet soul collectors throw money at. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/woodbrassheywhats.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/woodbrassaloveofmy.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CYMANDE: The Message * JANUS, VG++, 25.- Euro A fantastic funk 45 by this London based Band, that formed in 1971. Members of Cymande came from Jamaica, Guyana and St. Vincent and they played a mixture of Funk, Reggae, Soul and African Rhythms. This 45 was taken from their debut LP from 1972 and sold quite well in the USA. Simply a great funky record and so nice to have this on 45! soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/cymandemessage.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx RICHARD RUSSELL: No Body Can Stop Me / Wish You Were Here * KASHE, M-, 25.- Euro One of only four releases on New York's Kashe label. Richard Russell was a Cleveland / Ohio native and recorded a handful 45s for different companies. One side uptempo and one side very nice deep soul on this record. Clean vinyl, that plays with slight surface noise due to a mediocre pressing. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/richardrussellnobody.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/richardrussellwishyouwere.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx STARFIRE: Don't Come Back / Almost Insane * DYNAMIC ARTISTS, VG+, label tear, 20.- Euro Great boogie funk out of Richmond /Virginia with an ice slow jam on the flip. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/starfiredontcomeback.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/starfirealmostinsane.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx AARON NEVILLE: All These Things / She's On My Mind * BELL, promo, M-, 25.- Euro Nola magic on both sides by the big guy Aaaron Neville, blessed with a voice beyond compare. No, this is not for the dancefloor or something to impress your friends with; it's just mindblowing good soulmusic. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/aaronnevillealltheseth.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/aaronnevilleshessonmymind.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx DIAMOND JOE: The ABC Song / Look Way Back * DEESU, promo, M-, 25.- Euro Excellent, hard hitting Nola funky soul produced by Allen Touissant and Marshall Sehorn. 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 JESSE JOHNSON: Kickin' The Habit / Down The Line * TURF, M-, 25.- Euro Great funky soul by a Los Angeles based group and a record, that never really took off and remained cheap. Flipside is a great jazzy funk jam credited to Johnson's band the Chocolate Fudge Express. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/jessejohnsonkickin.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/chocolatefudgedowntheline.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx LOU JOHNSON: Magic Potion / Reach Out For Me * BIG HILL, M-, wol, 25.- Euro Two great Burt Bacharach/Hal David compositions; one uptempo and one magical midtempo. Lou Johnson definitely was the second best performer of Bacharach songs, closely after Dionne Warwick. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/loujohnsonmagicpotion12.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/loujohnsonreachoutfor.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx GEORGE PORTER'S JOYRIDE: Cissy Strut / Sneaky Freaky * DEESU, M-, minor label flaking on flip, minor storage warp, 20.- Euro Two excellent super tight New Orleans Funk sides, probably unplayed before I lifted the soundfile. George Porter was - of course - the bass player for the Meters. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/georgeportercisssy.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/georgeportersneaky.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx DAMARIS: What About My Love * COLUMBIA; promo, M-, 20.- Euro Classy take on Johnnie Taylor's immortal "What About My Love" by singer Damaris Carbaugh, who released one LP in the eraly 80's and then turned to gospel. This is punchier and more dancefloor friendly then Johnny Taylor's original and she sure was a great singer! soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/damariswhataboutmy1.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx JAY DEE: Strange Funky Games And Things * WARNER BROTHERS, Made in Germany, M- / M- condition, 20.- Euro A rare groove classic on a nice looking german art sleeve issue. Produced by Barry White to perfection and this is on thick and great sounding vinyl, not like the US issues, that where pressed on brittle styrene. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/jaydeestrangefunky1.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx MARVIN HOLMES & JUSTICE: Tell The Truth / Summer Of '73 * BROWN DOOR, M-, 20.- Euro The debut 45 of Marvin Holmes & Justice in Mint shape, whose "You Better Keep Her" is a classic Mecca spin and indemand for decades on the soul scene. Two great sides here, taken from their ultra rare debut LP. Top sides provides a funky 70's mover with soulful vocals and tight backings. Flip it over for an excellent instrumental. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/marvinholmestellthe.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/marvinholmessummerof.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx BOBBY BLAND: I'm So Tired / If You Could Just Read My Mind * DUKE, VG+, 20.- Euro, on hold Everytime I listen to "I'm So Tired" I can't believe what I hear. How can a band be that tight? How can someone sing like Bobby Bland? Why has this record been ignored by soul collectors? Why doesn't it cost 500 bucks? Anyway, this is as good as it gets and the flip is a facemelting ballad, that alone should make you buy this. Vinyl is shiny and clean, but has a surface mark from start to finish; the good news is, that it doesn't sound at all. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/bobbyblandimsorry.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/bobbyblandifyoucould.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx VARETTA DILLARD: I'm Gonna Tell My Daddy * GROOVE, VG, 20.- Euro, on hold Bargain price for a nice playing, but slightly wounded copy of this R&B banger from 1956. The original Groove distribution sleeve has open borders and some writings on it, but still looks super nice after all theses years. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/varettadillardimgonnatellmy.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx WILLIAM BELL: The Man In The Street * STAX, M-, 15.- Euro, on hold Extra clean copy of this 1972 slice of social conscious crossover soul. One of the finest records coming from this iconic Memphis label and a must have in my humble opinion. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/williambellthemaninthe1.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx JACKIE ROSS: New Lover / Jerk And Twine * CHESS, VG++, some label damage, drill hole in lbl, 15.- Euro Two great Chicago 60's sides back to back. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/jackierossnewlover1.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/jackierossjerkand1.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx MARVIN GAYE: Heavy Love Affair * TAMLA, promo, M-, 15.- Euro Simply superb early 80's soul by the great Marvin Gaye. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/marvingayeheavylove1.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx JIMMY DELPHS: Almost * KAREN, VG to VG-, 15.- Euro A few crackles during the first few bars, but after a few rotations, the record cleans up nicely. Bargain price for a haunting slice of Detroit 60's dance soul. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/jimmydelphsalmost1.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx RONNIE BAXTER: True Love Is A Stranger * AGON, VG+, 15.- Euro Under the radar 60's dancer in the style of Doug Banks "I Just Kept on Dancing". A record for the 60's DJ with some imagination. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/ronniebaxtertruelove.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx DORIS ALLEN: A Shell Of A Woman * SSS INTERNATIONAL, M-, wol, 12.- Euro, on hold soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/dorisallenshellofawoman.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CHOCOLATE MILK: Action Speaks Louder Than Words / Ain't Nothin' But A Thing * RCA, VG++, 12.- Euro Cheap as chips Allen Toussaint 1975 production, that ticks all the boxes. Funky and then some and a record, that deserves way more attention than it's low price tag might suggest. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/chocolatemilkaction1.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/chocolatemilkaintnothingbut1.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx HOT BUSH Tell Me That You Will * APA, M-, 12.- Euro Unplayed stock copy o this T.K. distributed Florida 70's soul gem. A stepper of the highest order and cheaper then all the stupid useless reissues flooding the market these days. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/hotbushrtellme.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx DONNY GERARD: He's Always Somewhere Around * GREEDY, M-, 10.- Euro One of the very best things you can buy for next to nothing. A 70's dancer, that sounds like 3 figures, a label design by an unknown maestro and the song was published by "Joyfully Sad Music" /what a name for a publishing company!), honestly, what more do you want? soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/donnygerardhesalways1.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ORANGE SUNSHINE: Who's Cheating On Who * PRODIGAL, promo, M-, 10.- Euro Superb funky cheapo produced by Don Boddie of Boddie records fame. So much better then it's price tag and a proof, that record collecting doesn't have to break the bank. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/orangesunshinewhoscheating.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx SYL JOHNSON: Ode To Soul man / I'll Take Those Skinny Legs * TWINIGHT, M-, 10.- Euro Two action packed funky soul sides for you to consider. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/syljohnsonodetosoul1.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/syljohnsonilltakethose1.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx THE OTHER BOTHERS: Precious Memories * RENASSANCE "76", M-, 10.- Euro Charming Detroit 70's soul. The basic track is recorded in Mono and the synths and the vocals are in Stereo - a weird but wonderful recording technique. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/otherbrosprecious.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx WILL HATCHER: What Is Best For Me Is Better For You * SCEPTER, VG++, wol, 10.- Euro Detroit singer Willie Calvin Hatcher, cousin of Edwin Starr and brother of Roger "Sweetest Girlk In The World" Hatcher on a 70's masterpiece from the endless talent pool of the Motor City. A great record by any means and cheap as chips too. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/willhatcherwhatsbest.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx THE SPINNERS: I'll Be Around * ATLANTIC, VG+, 10.- Euro The epitome of 70's soul and a truly majestic performance by the mighty Spinners. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/spinnersillbearound1.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx J. R. BAILEY: After Hours * TOY; VG++, wol, 10.- Euro Working class 70's soul celebrating the after-work hours and a midtempo gem of the highest order. No idea why an unknown artist used the fattest edding available to show off his talents on the label, but the music is crisp and clear and that's what counts. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/jrbaileyafterhours1.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx FRANKIE KARL & THE DREAMS: Don't Be Afraid * D.C., VG, drill hole in lbl, 10.- Euro A beautiful sweet harmony soul song with slightly spooky mansplaining lyrics.
