Garfield Fleming, Darrow Fletcher, 5 Wagers, Flirtations

[Paul Capon]

Garfield Fleming        Don't Send Me Away

BECKET  VG+ to EX     £275    

‘A’ side has a light zzuz sound literally in the first two beats of the intro - about a second only. Played on headphones and plays great - more like an EX with just a handful of  pops as you would expect in a VG+ record. B side has a scuff mark right at the end of the track and into the run out. Again played in headphones - mark does not affect play. Total classic soul dancer
