The Emotions    Somebody New / Brushfire

DEEP SOUL  UK M-     £40

Just a stunning piece of soul music. This superb ballad has the full package.  Looking amazing in original artwork DEEP SOUL company sleeve. Vinyl has a slightly cloudy look but nothing that affects the record in any way. B side is a half decent northern track. 

This label paired with the company sleeve is a piece of art in its own right!

‘Somebody New’ - simply divine!!!!!
