Not just that Paul Anka, a pop artist, made a Northern Soul classic, this is - to the best of my knowledge - the first copy ever surfaced out of Peru. It comes with it's original peruvian RCA company sleeve. Unfortunately it has many small marks and plays crackly, especially during the first few bars, but it's a unique piece of vinyl and a nice addition to the pile of "Soul releases from strange parts of the world". soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/paulankacanthelp.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx JAMES WALSH GYPSY BAND: Cuz It's You Girl * RCA, promo, M-, 125.- Euro, on hold Minneapolis Modern Soul classic on a clean RCA promo.

Vinyl has numerous small marks and a larger, but not sounding surface scratch and there is an edge chip, that doesn't go into the playing surface.

Here is the promo copy of "Downtown Soulville", the title song of Matt Weingardens highly recomnended radio show, on Soul City. Dave Godin and David Nathans label, that was operated out of their record shop in London and had a major impact on the UK soul scene. Anyway, this is a funky 1968 dancer with gritty vocals.

Meco is best known for his retakes of popular tunes like "Beethoven's fifth Symphony" or the "Star Wars Theme" and turn them into galactic disco funk anthems. This 45 marks his starting point and to my ears, it's a killer. Meco loved to play around with words and the band name Megaton is a conglomerate of the first name of his partner in crime Tony Bongiovi. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/megatondiggin1.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx DOC OLIVER: Soul Popcorn * JANUS, promo, strong VG+, 35.- Euro Mighty fine funky soul from 1969 by Doc Oliver, whose real name is Marion Oliver, he released just three 45s during his career and this one is his debut from 1969. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/docoliversoulpopcorn.mp3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx JEAN SHY: We've Got A Good Thing Going / You've Gotb To Take It (If You Want It) * FOX CAR, VG++, 35.- Euro Two fantastic, sophisticated and soulful New York sides back to back somewhere between sweet soul and crossover.
