Grading: Goldmine grading system - M- / VG++/ VG+ / VG / VG- etc. CAROL MOGAN: I've Got Everything * BORN, VG+, dirt spots on lbl, drill hole, 600.- Rarest of the rare Chicago Northern Soul. Light marks only, plays great! This is of course Carol Morgan, misspelled on the few copies, that ever surfaced. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/carolmmoganivegot.mp3 HARD DRIVERS featuring VIVIAN LEE: Since I Was A Little Girl * HAWES, strong VG, mild warp not affecting play, 250.- Euro Uptempo no-nonsense funky Modern Soul banger. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/vivianleesince.mp3 LUV 'N HAIGHT: One Night Love Affair / Rock On * LUV 'N HAIGHT, VG+ very light surface blemishes, NOT affecting play at all, 200.- Euro Private pressed 70’s wescoast dancer soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/luvnonenight.mp3 soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/luvnhaightroc.mp3 PEACHES: Please Don't Take My Man * BUMP'S, VG++, "x" on label, 175.- Euro R&B tingled 60's dancer with Eloise Daniels (aka Peaches) on lead. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/peachespleasedont.mp3 DOROTHY BERRY: Standing On The Corner / Shindig City * PLANETARY, VG++, 150.- Euro Two stomping 60's uptempo sides for the dancefloor. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/dorothyberrystanding.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/dorothyberryshindig.mp3 SHARON WILSON: On The Fringes * DURMEN INT., M-, 150.- Euro, on hold Almost unknown Northern Soul with a lot of milleage in the grooves. A record, that you never ever see for sale. And it has this classic nighter sound to it, that works from the first bar to the fade out.

Your chance to own something unique! soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/sharonwilsononthe.mp3 THE STARLIGHTERS: I Never Thought * DURMEN INT., VG+, 125.- Euro Another one on the super obscure DurMen International label. A garage soul goodie, that makes you want to shuffle along the dancefloor. The only reference I found was a sale in 2014 for 80.- Euro.

Grading: Goldmine grading system - M- / VG++/ VG+ / VG / VG- etc. HANK SOUL MAN MULLEN: He Upset Your Dream / Listen * AUDEL, M-, wol, 100.- Euro Funky edged Northern, that got reissued by Daptone's subsidiary "Ever Soul" in 2008. Flip this baby over for a deepsoul tearjerker, that ticks all the boxes. This is Hank Mullen's only 45, he died shortly after he recorded this in his mid-twenties of a heart attack. Vinyl has no marks and looks super clean, but has a sleightly weird "pale" look to it, with almost no shine. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/hankmullenheupsetyour.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/hankmullenlisten.mp3 ELEMENTS: Save It For A Rainy Day / Freedom Jam * BIG STREET, M-, 100.- Euro Fantastic sweet group soul rola backed up by a rugged ghetto funk workout. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/elementssaveitfor.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/elementsfreedom.mp3 THE PROFILES: I Still Love You * BAMBOO,M-, drill hole in lbl, 75.- Euro Clean copy of this simply awesome group soul 60's dancer. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/profilesistillove.mp3 DEEN DODGE: A Perfect Love * JAX, M-, 75.- Euro Rare cali Modern Soul dancer with a jazzy edge to it. soundfile: https://www.hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/deendodgeaperfect_3.mp3 SHONI: It Must Be Love * RAV, VG to VG+, 75.- Euro Memphis 70's soul rarity on the same label as Willie Darrington's classic "Never Should Have Walked Away" and the super rare Veda Brown. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/shoniitmustbelove.mp3 THE ELEGANTS: Ooh Poo Pah Doo * INTERNATIONAL ARTISTS, M-, 75.- Euro This is a story of an unreleased record and a big mess up. The Elegants, a salt & pepper group from Tacoma, entered a studio in the mid sixties to record two soul covers - Jessie Hill's "Ohh Poo Pah Doo" and Hank Ballard's "Let's Go, Let's Go, Let's Go". The pressing plant messed up the label and credited the recording to Larry Beck, the label then decided to print correct labels, but someone forgot to add the artist on the label after this double fuck up, the band decided to throw everything in the bin - nice try, good bye. In other words, this record was never officially released and someone found the remaining stock with both sides of the label prints (one side has the artist on it and the side featured hasn't). So, what you get is a mint copy of this hard knocking Jessie Hill cover and the prints of both sides of the label. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/eleganstoohpoo.mp3 ELROY PEACE: New Day * JO JO, M-, 75.- Euro **** Last two copies available... I had 10 of these and 8 are already gone **** Super obscure 70's dancer here by an artist out of Los Angeles, the label was owned by Matt Furin, a local recordman, who ran 'Wig-Wag' records and 'Round U' along with "Jo Jo" and released local talents from all genres. Elroy shares the songwriting credits with Ricky Lance, another local L.A. singer, who recorded some highly indemand 45s for his own Bren label. This one is a regular spin for UK DJ Brett Franklin and it's pretty much under the radar for most collectors. Uptempo, soulful, with a hint of crazyness, due to the wicky-wacky-sounds on the intro, but surely taylormade for some dancefloor action. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/elroypeacenewday.mp3 BROWN SUGAR: I'm Going Thru Changes Now / The Game Is Over (What's The Matter With You) * CAPITOL, promo, M-, archive stamp on one side of lbl, 60.- Euro, on hold Super clean promo copy of this massive 70's soul two-sider. The UK soul scene prefers "The Game Is Over", in my humble opinion "I'm Going Thru Changes Now" is the side to play. Anyway, two great sides, that come complete with their birth sleeve. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/brownsugarimgoing.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/brownsugarthegame.mp3 JEFF DALE: A Suffering Pain / Our Love Will Grow Strong * ATCO, promo, VG++, 60.- Euro In terms of soulfulness this record is hard to beat.

Highly recomended! soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/jeffdaleasuffering.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/jeffdaleourlovewill.mp3 CASH McCALL: More Power To You / I'll Always Love You * PS, VG-/G+, uptmepo side plays loud and proud! 50.- Euro Lots of light marks on this windy city rarity, but the uptempo side plays great! The ballad flip has more surface noise, but is still on the enjoyable side of things. Powerhouse, funky soul, that will have it's day sooner or later. A hard record to find, it took me ages to upgrade this. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/cashmccallmorepower.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/cashmccallillalways.mp3 RENALDO DOMINO: Let Me Come Within / I'm A Good Man * TWINIGHT, VG-, wol, 40.- Euro, on hold One of the best funk records out of Cgicago with a smashing Syl Johnson production. Flip is a hell of a good ballad. This copy is well loved and was quite obviously stored without a sleeve; many light scuffs, but nothing to distracting. The quiter flip has some more background noise, hence the price. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/renaldoletmecome.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/renalodimagood.mp3 HOLLAND-DOZIER: New Breed Kinda Woman / If You Don't Want To Be In My Life * INVICTUS; M-/VG++, 50.- Euro Great 70's dancer with two top sides to choose from.

Check popsike, only one copy has ever sold one ebay. The promo just offers "Chosen One" on both sides and you miss out on the great soulful funky edged "Work, Work, Work", which sounds perfect for today's scene. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/bwworkwork.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/bwchosenone.mp3 ERIC & THE VIKINGS: Vibrations (Made Us Fall In Love) / Get Of The Streets Ya'll * SOULHAWK, M-, 40.- Euro Great Popcorny Wylie penned and produced Detroit early 70's soul backed up by a super heavy funk instro. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/ericandvibrations.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/ericandgetoff.mp3 THE HESITATIONS: No Brag Just Fact * GWP, M-, sticker on lbl, 40.- Euro You're looking for this thing called funky edged soul? Don't look any further. An underplayed, smoking hot, no bullshit, dancefloor destroyer, that never fails to fill the floor. Great record, by any means and in my humble opinion, the better of the two GWP release by the Hesitations! soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/hesiationsnobrags.mp3 JEAN WELLS: What Have I Got To Lose * CALLA, M-, 40.- Euro, on hold Truly outstanding crossover dancer, that can only be described as a perfect soul record.

Three decades of delivering hard edged soul and Blues with his first release dating back to 1961 for Imperial records and his last record released in 2002 for Evejim records in Los Angeles. This here is an iconic Northern Soul spin, uptempo, adrenalin fueled top class 60's dance soul. Whether you like this for a trip down memory lane (I've been to the Wigan Casino bla bla bla) or you just get caught by the raw soulfulness of this 1966 outing (or maybe both?), 60's dance soul doesn't get much better then this! soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/vernongarrettificouldturn.mp3 EDDIE PARKER: I Need A True Love * TRIPLE "B", M-, 35.- Euro Blasting, powerhouse Detroit Northern Soul written by Lorraine Chandler and Jack Ashford.

Nice and clean jamie promo, that never needs an upgrade. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/carolyncarterimthru.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/carolyncrawfordithurts.mp3 ' MAJOR LANCE: Um, Um, Um, Um, Um, Um / Sweet Music * OKEH, Vinyl VG+, Sleeve: M-, tiny sticker on lbl, 30.- Euro No big deal to find a copy of the Major's top 100 chart entry "Um, Um, Um...", the record sold well, but to find the sleeve in this nice condition is a way harder task -, hence the price of this. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/majorlanceumumum.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/majorlancesweetmus.mp3 TONY MIDDLETON: My Home Town * ALFA, VG++, 25.- Euro Latin tingled big city soul / popcorn gem with a trombone throwing in fills while Mr. Middelton sings his heart out. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/tonymiddletonmyhomet.mp3 LONNIE BROOKS: I'm Not Going Home / Figure Head * U.S.A., VG++ almost M-, 25.- Euro, on hold Cool windy city R&B dancer backed up by a slow burning bluesy number. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/lonniebrooksimnotgoing.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/lonniebrooksfigure.mp3 GLORIA EDWARDS: (Need Nobody To Help Me) Keep Up With My Man / Anything You Want * KING, M-, 25.- Euro Smashing crossover soul backed up with a great funky edged dancer. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/gloriaedwardsneednobod.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/gloriaedwardsanything.mp3 GEORGE SOULE: Get Involved * FAME, VG+, 25.- Euro This George Jackson penned 1973 release for Rick Hall's Fame imprint was originally written for Wilson Pickett, but Rick Hall decided, that George Soule's version is good enough for a release -, how right he was! One of the cornerstone records for the Muscle Shoals Sound and simply a perfect 70's dance record. Short hiss on the run in grooves, otherwise perfect playing record with superficial marks only. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/georgesoulegetinvolved.mp3 THE COURTSHIP: Last Row, First Balcony / It's The Same Old Love * TAMLA; M-, 25.- Euro, on hold This usually sells for the musically brilliant sweet group side "It's The Same Old Love", but I actually prefer the overlooked dancer on the flip. Definitely an underplayed and undervalued record... soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/courrtshiplastnow.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/courtshipitsthesame.mp3 BOBBY BLAND: Shoes * DUKE, weak VG, plays way above grade, wol, stamp on lbl, 25.- Euro I know, I should get tared and feathered for saying "fine for DJing", but this copy is exactly this. A few light marks and nothing really distracts from the music; absolutely the right record for someone who isn't to picky about condition. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/bobbyblandshoes.mp3 THE VANDALS: I'm Gonna Wait For You * T NECK, VG++, sticker on lbl, 25.- Euro The magic sweet voice of a teenage Damon Harris, who later replaced Eddie Kendricks when he dropped out of the Temptations. In fact, The Vandals started out as The Young Temptations and changed their name after a lawsuit form Berry Gordy. Anyway, brilliant sweet group soul outing recorded under the aegies of the Isley Brothers, extremly soulful and when the raw voiced singer drops in, you can't help but think of the Vanguards recordings for Lamp records. Highly recomended! soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/vandalsimgonna.mp3 THE MIGHTY MARVELOWS: Talkin' Bout Ya, Baby * ABC, VG+, 30.- Euro Non-stop uptempo 60's dancer, that never fails to get the floor moving. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/mightymarvelowstalking.mp3 STACY LANE: I'm Out To Win You Over / African Twist * EXCELLO, VG++, "x" on lbl, 30.- Euro Memphis' wildest, rowdiest singer with a hell of a performance on this pounding, brassy late 60's dancer recorded at the HI studios by Ray Harris. Lane's growling, insistent vocal styles, pretty much in the vein of Wilson Pickett, are even more prominent on the flip with a in-your-face slap of funky soul. Killer double header with two no-bullshit bangers back to back. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/stacylaneimouttowin.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/stacylaneafricantw.mp3 GREGORY WASHINGTON: Pamla Lamour * BRAINSTORM, M-, 25.- Euro Instant catchy "Tighten Up"-inspired instrumental out of the windy city. A record, that always got someone running to the decks to see what it is. Totally underrated and undervalued... soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/gregorywashingtonpamla.mp3 JOHNNY DANIEL & THE SOUL MALIBUS: Make Me Feel So Good / Down, Get Down * SMR, M- 25.- Euro Two excellent soulful funky 70's sides, that never really got the attention they deserve.

C. * EMERGE, VG++, almost M-, 25.- Euro Groovy R&B instrumental, that would shake some action on every mod party. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/jimpipkinsmrcc.mp3 LEON HAYWOOD: Mellow Moonlight * DECCA, Made in Germany, Vinyl: M- / Sleeve: VG+, residue from removed sticker on either label side, 25.- Euro, on hold I never knew, that Leon haywood's fabulous "Mellow Moonlight" was released in Krautland with a picture sleeve. Excellent 60's mover on a serious rare german issue. and I guess way to cheap, as the common US issue sets you back to 25 as well. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/leonhaywoodmellowmo.mp3 VALENTINOS: I Can Understand It * CLEAN, promo, VG++, 25,- Euro Bobby Womack on lead vocals on this joyus and uplifting 70's dancer. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/valentinosicanunder.mp3 JERRY WASHINGTON: Baby, Don't Leave Me * EXCELLO, M-, 20.- Euro One of the best funk cheapos around, simple as that.

LAWRENCE, promo, "x" on lbl, M-, 20.- Euro Way rarer promo copy of this great windy city handclapper soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/mamiegaloretoomany.mp3 MARY & THE DESIRABLES: Hurting Hurts * CHECKER, VG++, 20.- Euro Naive but compelling girlie teen soul form the Vaults of Chess records in Chicago. One of the harder records on the label and this one has this addictive crossover soul feel to it. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/maryandthehurtinghurts.mp3 JUNE CONQUEST: What's This I See * CURTOM, M-, 15.- Euro Great records don't have to break the bank. One of the first releases of Chicago's legendary Curtom label and what a great uplifting dancer this is. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/juneconquestwhats.mp3 RODGER COLLINS: She's Looking Good * GALAXY, VG++, milkd ringwera on lbl, 15,- Euro Romping, stomping aggro soul with a powerhouse production firing out on all cylinders. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/rogercollijnshseslookin.mp3 INEZ FOXX: Crossing Over The Bridge * VOLT, promo, M-, 15.- Euro, on hold Mack Rice and Inez Foxx penned masterpiece! Crossover soul from the top shelf, that never really got the attention it deserves. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/inezfoxxcrossing.mp3 AL WILSON: Show And Tell * POLYDOR, Made in Yugoslavia, Vinyl: M- / Sleeve: M, with minor writings on back, 15.- Euro What a surprise, that Polydor released this mellow soul masterpiece in Tito's Yugoslavia. Despite the fact, that this is one of the finest slices of 70's soul, a Yugoslavian picture sleeve of this, is something, that I wouldn't have expected to be released in a socialist country. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/alwilsonshowandtell.mp3 HANK BALLARD: You're So Sexy / Thrill On The Hill * KING, promo, wol, VG++, 20.- Euro Two hard hitting funky James productions to chose from on this shiny clean King promo. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/hankballardyouresosexy.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/hankballardthrill.mp3 MARVA WHITNEY: It's My Thing * KING, promo, VG+, 20.- Euro One of the funkiest 45s out there, with the Dapps laying down a super solid groove for the screaming, almost hysterical, vocals of Marva Whitney. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/marvawhitneyitsmything.mp3 T.S.U. TORONADOES: What Good Am I? / Getting The Corners * ATLANTIC, VG, drill hole in lbl, 20.- Euro Some surface scratches, nothing to distracting on this Houston/Texas double header. Side 1 offers flawless floating soul with great vocals by Cal Thomas. Flip it over for a clubby funk tune, that sounds awesome when played out. Record has mild surface marks, nothing to bad and plays just fine. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/tsutoronadoeswhatgoo.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/tsutoronadoesgettingth.mp3 S.O.U.L.: This Time Around * MUSICOR, M-, 20.- Euro, on hold Shiny mint copy of this alltime classic; a record, that I never get tired of hearing. It has that fantastic relentless vocal delivery by Larry Hancock that takes a record from great to bloody fantastic. Early 70's soul perfection for the dancefloor! soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/soulthistimearound.mp3 RUBY JOHNSON: Here I Go / Jerk Shout * NEB'S, M-, 20.- Euro Most dealers would probably advertise this record with the R&B belter "Jerk Shout", but the true soul gem is "Here I Go Again" a three-four-time tearjerker -, one for the deep soul fans out there! soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/rubyjohnsonhereigo.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/rubyjohnsonjerkshout.mp3 THE DELACARDOS: She's The One I Love / Got No One, ATANTIC, strong VG, 20.- Euro "She's The One I Love" has this strolling good time vibe; a solid dance groove coupled with great lead vocals and awesome group harmonies. Flip it over for a fantastic sweet low rider rola. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/delacardosshestheone.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/delacardosgotnoone.mp3 FRANKIE KARL & THE DREAMS: Don't Be Afraid (Do As I Say) / I'm So Glad * D.C., VG++, 15.- Euro A record as beautiful as it gets, but everytime I listen to it, I find this one of the weirdest soul 45s ever. "Don't Be Afraid, Do as I say...", I mean did Harvey Weinstein wrote the lyrics? Anyway, two great sides to chose from. soundfile 1: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/frankiekarldontbeafraid.mp3 soundfile 2: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/frankiekarlimsoglad.mp3 PANIC BUTTONS: O-Wow * GAMBLE, VG, 15.- Euro Knockout phily funk romp on Kenny Gamble and Leon Huffs legendary imprint.

Check out the incredible break at 2:30! soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/aretharocksteady.mp3 DORIS ALLEN: A Shell Of A Woman * MINARET, M-, 15.- Euro This record is bursting with soul! One of these records to pull out, if you want to explain what deep soul is all about. I tip my stetson to Mrs Allen and her roughed, rugged vocal performance and so did dave Godin, who compiled this for Kent records many years ago. soundfile: https://hamburgcitysoul.com/upload/dorisallenashellofa.mp3
