Pepe Romo, Des Glasford’s Combo Seven - Let The Tears Fall (Just Des) Vg+ £100 Killer Gayanese only dancer that been on the playlists of Michael Robinson (USA) and Mitja Vesnaver (Europe) but it seems has yet to make its way to UK dance floors. And this has SOOOOO much northern scene potential! Rare as hen’s teeth private press with very few copies going through eBay and Discogs. Couple of lower grade copies on Cogs currently at more than twice the price! Bargain price because this needs to be heard! https://youtu.be/A1HMd9ap9L8?si=K633ebizn-UX9Hdg PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Thee Midniters - Dreaming Casually/Breakfast On The Grass (Whittier) Vg (plays Vg+) £250 ***HEAR IT*** One of their hardest and most in demand 45s. Seen low grade copies sell for £350 recently due to lowrider demand for the simply gorgeous ‘Dreaming’, flip it for an incredible slab of Chicano garage/Psych that would not be out of place on some current playlists. Good price on this due to some very very light background which is overpowered by the recording, check the YouTube link below for a clip from the actual 45. https://youtube.com/shorts/ls2X5xsAhi8?feature=shared The Dynamic Daiquiris - Hurt Me So/Kidnapper (Master “W” Records) Mint- £175 Grail! Stone cold killer ‘Shades of Sorrow’ Vol 3 group tear jerker that is simply superb. The ONLY copies I’m aware of came directly from the group thanks to the work of @MikeUmholtz who tracked them down in order to include this on Vol 3. This my personal copy that came from Mike and is a very reluctant sale. Previous copies have sold at £300+ so this is a bargain price point, but needs must! Beach flip side reminds me of something from back in the Stafford days (I’m sure someone will remind me), enormous northern potential as pretty sure this isn’t known at all. You won’t see a copy again anytime soon and certainly not at this price! Don’t sleep. https://youtu.be/QIzXe4De640?si=BJw96VwU6G4qO2AP Danny Harris and The Peacemakers - Never Endings / Miss United America (Cleo) Mint- (had two of these and both have had some background noise, the only YouTube clip also shares light noise so assume pressing fault) £40 Gorgeous virtually unknown psych soul ballad that seems pretty scarce (I wonder if it is a pressing fault that might explain the scarcity). Flip is an infectious garage soul dancer that given current trends and tastes could easily take-off in the right hands (previously not on YouTube so clip below is from this copy). https://youtu.be/WsVaI0GMAg0 https://youtube.com/shorts/e-Em5dl-xY0?feature=shared PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Ron Patterson - We’re Gonna Make It (Venice) Ex £150 Sublime mid-70s crossover that’s currently sailing under the radar. Just the one very recent YouTube entry, a single sale through Discogs and only a handful through eBay evidence both it’s rarity and obscurity. Seen sell for £250 in the past on eBay so this feels very reasonably priced. https://youtu.be/bc_G_Q6gYr8?si=st7WuKnxheXJJfFc Carl Douglas - Marble And Iron/Lean On Me (Buddha) Mint- (plus company sleeve) £75 Seems to be something of an overlooked 70s dancer these days, but it’s the totally under the radar flip - a superb crossover dancer - that does it for me (I understand this was covered up more recently but not sure who by or what as). Either way a quality double sider and well below its going rate. https://youtu.be/Tr1Hcd_YiFU?si=DNyY5IDYoFiA4MBk https://youtu.be/KDgFeJrKKO8?si=9ZeRu34BdvIboguC Bob Corsey - A Tear In God’s Eye (Mont-Ego) Vg+ £100 Left-field psych/sweet soul/crossover song poem! Mega rare with just six copies through eBay three of which sold for over £200 with a top sale of £486! A unique sound and one that won’t appeal to everyone but definitely has something. Not previously on YouTube, clip below from actual 45. https://youtube.com/shorts/96l4s2of76s?feature=shared Michael Jones - Do What You Want To Do (Candy Coated) Ex £25 Seemingly unknown 70’s/80’s modern soul, with plenty of potential.

Gravel voiced, R&B dancer b/w a decent deep soul effort. Interestingly there’s some debate on the Sir Shambling site that this is actually Rev. James Cleveland moonlighting from his Savoy contract . Anyway rare as hen’s and definitely one for the more enterprising DJs out there. Not previously on YouTube so clips are from actual 45. https://youtube.com/shorts/LnuhlwWzkF8?feature=shared https://youtube.com/shorts/vaHNPjpsCkM?feature=shared Johnny Gibson - Baby Let Me Know (GTM) Vg+ £75 Raw as you like R&B dancer that I believe was a cover up for Guy Hennigan at some point. Suffice to say it’s remained under the radar ever since only recently making its way onto YouTube. Another killer dancer and ripe for revival IMHO. https://youtu.be/OfSTTXCBapQ?si=9HVtauroCBD71LBS “Little” Jimmie Ballard - Guilty (Of Love In The 1st Degree) (ABC WD) Vg+ £60 Funk edged R&B that is right for today’s scene hence some exposure in recent times via RSF and other upfront venues/DJs. Tough 45 on the label for sure and seen sell for more. Could have a big future! https://youtu.be/wuOul3JEljM?si=QDrK6uD_dci0QZxF PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Doris & Kelley - You Don’t Have To Worry/Groove Me With Your Love (Brunswick) Vg++ £325 The haunting beautiful and incredibly in demand lowrider masterpiece that is ‘…Worry’ should in itself be enough to command a £400+ price tag and indeed recent top sales have reached this price on a number of occasions, but this has the added advantage of a superb lowrider flip side as well (albeit one that gets less attention). A 45 that, despite it major label release, is a tough one to acquire- partly because demand far outweighs supply. A stunning 45 that graces the collections of only those with the finest of tastes. Another one I’ll doubtless regret parting with almost as soon as it’s gone.

Bill Lucas - Cause I Know You’re Mine/I Don’t Ever Want To Love Again (Dionn WD) Vg+ £200 One of, if not the, finest of Stafford’s best ballads b/w an under the radar lowrider that is just as sublime as its flip side. Never been an easy find this 45, with lots of people having to make do with the later reissue/boot. This is the first copy I’ve ever had (and I have been hunting for it since about 1984) and I can’t say I recall seeing it for sale often in the last 40 years either! This one has a few surface marks, but playsVg+ (the odd gentle crackle on the slower flip side but still a good Vg+ player. One of the great double siders that seems to have been somewhat overlooked in recent times, maybe due to rarity. Two quality sides, don’t sleep. https://youtu.be/XpiIwpg2qp8?si=ffJQH2wzQ4iFmmH5 https://youtu.be/mbe54fCRjnk?si=361NCy8nOBq__ZOz PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

The Phantom - Come Back To Me/ Uh Huh, Ohyeah (Karisma) Vg+ (light surface marks, some gentle background but nothing too distracting, priced accordingly) ***HEAR IT*** £225 Rarely seen and barely ever heard, here is the far superior version of Sonny Craver’s Musette 45 titled simply ‘Come Back’. Only once through Discogs some 5 or so years ago and just seven through eBay! Last copy had went at £400 and that was Ex, this is lower end Vg+ with some light background crackle (HEAR IT BELOW) which will probably improve with a deep clean (light surface marks only). Currently this is cruising stealth like under the radar thanks to its rarity but it has a big future given the right exposure. The flip will have its champions too and I’ve included a link to that below as it’s not to be ignored. Rarity assured, exclusively assured, quality assured, investment potential assured. You won’t see another for some considerable time! ***HEAR IT*** clip below from actual 45 https://youtube.com/shorts/AhFNrDWp6P8?feature=shared https://youtu.be/n30kBJsiGaw PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Gene Yarbrough - The Meeting Place part 1 & 2 (Jerma) Vg++ £40 I am inundated with enquiries every time I list this. My personal favourite of those listed, this seems virtually unknown and whilst part 1 has a couple of YouTube entries, the far better part 2 has only recently been added courtesy of @BarrieWaddington aka @A45Heaven (who’s no bad judge of a 45 given he was responsible for discovering many of Stafford’s finest plays and plenty more before and after). A killer 45 IMHO and not easy to find, will be a three figure 45 now it’s getting plays (and given the names of those that have acquired a copy from me that is going to be very very soon!) https://youtu.be/B1FBMgXgLUo?si=XWWPzKyKIPalWpiv https://youtu.be/xuk448cSt5w?si=zuC_7H9CRFFI4Zzo C-Quents - It’s You And Me/Dearest One Essica) Vg+ £50 Double header alert! Not sure which side I like best here, ‘You And Me’ is a criminally underplayed northern group dancer that really deserves more attention, but it’s the flip that creating demand and seen the price rise to £75+ recently, a sublime lowrider group ballad that stands up against many of the rarer and more expensive 45s. Doubt you’ll get another copy at this low price. Don’t sleep! https://youtu.be/LA1xMvfUZR8?si=LrQWXBH81Ez1vPoI https://youtu.be/Ac0P0DHtUfc?si=zxdes4GacfMfuIIB Mauds - You Made Me Feel So Bad (Mercury) Ex £40 Last but by no means least, the increasingly popular garage soul must have! This one flies out the door every time I list a copy. Reliably informed this killer slab of garage soul had plays in the 90s here and there but has still to crossover to the wider northern scene. This honestly blew me away when I first heard it, garage soul at it’s very best and still cheap (well for now)! Sold a lot of these in recent times and it’s no wonder.

4th Chapter - In The Rain (Pennie) Mint- £150 Killer psych soul/garage soul ballad in the style and of those wonderful Shades of Sorrow comps. This one’s yet to feature and is RARE, this along with about four other copies came from a band member and one I’ve not seen one before or since. Should be £200-250 but in need of funds so doing this far too cheaply! Doubt you’ll get a chance to own this again and it’s not even on YouTube yet (until inn be posted this 40 second or so clip earlier). https://youtube.com/shorts/D5RZLe2MxE4?feature=shared Joyce Kennedy - The Hi Fi Albums And I (Blue Rock) Vg+ £50 Had a multitude of requests for this on the last couple of occasions I listed it and it’s no surprise! What a tune this is! Blue Rock big beat backing on the killer slab of deep with a beat. Starting to get interest on the lowrider circuit but remains for now under the radar and not common by any means! Notice recent sales in the £75 range so this one’s on the up! https://youtu.be/YGdV5OhT_cQ Top Shelf - Stop And Listen/Let Them Keep On Talking (Spectrum) Vg/G+ £15 Funky crossover’Stop’ plays a solid Vg (close to Vg+), sadly the wonderful sweet soul flip is little more than G+, again in decent shape this one books at about £75. As per the above not cleaned or treated in any way so could improve significantly. ***HEAR IT*** https://youtube.com/shorts/60JbeW481bQ?feature=shared https://youtube.com/shorts/WSSP0FTGcKM?feature=shared PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Schnell Sisters - Help Me (To Forget You)/Wonderin’ (Big Mac) Vg+ (surface marks but plays great) £75 Killer blue eyed twofer! Can only imagine it’s the unlikely naked artists that’s kept this one in obscurity for so long! Top side is sublime (flip ain’t too shabby either). Moody, hypnotic and in the style of those wonderful ‘Shades of Sorrow’ comps. Tough 45 and only recently uploaded to YouTube. https://youtu.be/XkjHUOA9tMc?si=lBcU7y_gH9xl2woN https://youtu.be/Ry_GkhC9xg0?si=iI6EV2AMN1U6WOSV Ascots - I Won’t Cry/ The Wonder Of It All (Blue Fin) Ex £75 Killer garage soul double sider that’s as rare as hen’s teeth. Just one barely viewed YouTube clip of both sides and was recently featured on one of the excellent Shades of Sorrow MixClouds. Sounds right for now massive potential for this one! N.B. Rarer of it’s two issues with the fantastic ‘Wonder Of It All’ flip side. https://youtu.be/oWSCvYV16q8?si=lzMlOBEBFRQ1Q8Pd https://youtu.be/OG5FI2ppV8k?si=Q8GAA-ucbPr7QaKO Franklin Jones - Alone In The Night/Do You Believe (Gama) Ex £50 Listed this yesterday and completely forgot about the killer Popcorn flip side plenty of potential for this side in the UK and Europe IMHO. Flip is a fabulous blue eyed R&B dancer that is pretty much unknown (YouTube clip is of actual copy as it doesn’t seem to be on there). Another label renowned for rarities (only other copy I can find ever is on a big dealers site at £125).

Revolvers - Good Lovin’ Woman (Ty Tex) Ex £75 Killer Texan Garage/R&B dancer that went down a storm at Saturday’s @TheLockUp. Tough 45 like most of its stablemates (and many Texan labels).

Jim & Lee - Let Go, Baby (Smash WD) Vg ***WOULD BE MINT- but for a fingerprint sized mark (see images) that causes occasional light ticks mostly overpowered by recording ***ASK FOR CLIP*** (priced accordingly) £150 Massive demand on this one in recent times and high in the wants lists of those in the know. Underplayed, under the radar (relatively) banging 60s dancer that will very soon be a big ticket item. Demand has been growing steadily for this over the last year or so and the last Vg+ through Discogs went for £300, a sound investment for a rarely offered 45 that is soon to have its day! As per above this is downgraded condition wise but is a great play copy for half the going rate - YouTube keeps giving me a copyright ban when I try to upload so ask for a clip!) https://youtu.be/-LGZO4eUyEM (for reference only ask for clip of actual 45) Gene Yarbrough - The Meeting Place part 1 & 2 (Jerma) Mint £50 I was inundated with enquiries every time I list this.
