Attractions - Did I Do The Right Thing (Nation-Wide) Vg++ £375 Nothing short of a sweet soul, group harmony grail. Four sales through Discogs (only three of which were above Vg grade), six times through eBay (and only twice above Vg grade) in last 15 years. Rare as rocking horse sh*t and absolutely stunning. Opportunity to get another in this type of condition (plays Ex) ain’t coming around anytime soon. Don’t sleep. https://youtu.be/JpdxPHD0CG0 PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Great record

Gino Washington - Like My Baby/I’ll Be Around (Atac WD) Mint- (clean labels see images) £180 No introduction necessary really, one of THE finest double siders ever. Top side of course shares its backing track with Gino’s unreleased Stafford monster ‘Rat Race’ although is far superior IMHO, a truly wonderful side from a fantastic talent. Flip it and you have an equally brilliant slab of mid tempo soul that’s seeing something of a revival appearing on a number of playlists across Europe and the UK. Rarer than the issue, a flawless copy with clean and glossy labels. https://youtu.be/OdBbWH-dTk0 https://youtu.be/q-jFSCDIvHI PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Yeah long time ago, a couple of years prior a Cavaliers on Shrine went through which I was watching, ending at 3am. Waited up until 1am and rose to £443 so I figured would end up a grand minimum and gave up. Next morning sold for just over £500 . I think it was this copy that then sold on Manship’s auction for I think £6k.

Got to be this one! And no I missed it altogether

Inspirational Souls - Jesus Is Going Away (Crusade) Mint- £35 Sold Late ‘70s funky gospel modern already being played by the likes of Greg Belson and Michele Coco. Has everything needed to go big IMHO, cheap at the moment while still under the radar but then weren’t they all? https://youtu.be/ye5HF9wxloQ Charles Brimmer - Freedom Overspill (Brimco) Mint- £50 Early ‘80s (?) seemingly unknown modern by the brilliant Charles Brimmer. Not on YouTube (clip below is this copy) only one sale on Discogs about 2 years ago and a couple on Popsike. I could only find a couple of Brimmer discographies and ot seems to be missing from those too. Obscure definitely, potential undoubtedly, rarity well it ain’t common! https://youtu.be/qLSJ-fkL4RI Rudi Stuart - I Wanna Love You All Over (Delmar International) £25 Sold 1980 shuffler that I’m told had plays on release, amazingly though seems virtually unknown. Reminds me of many of the anthemic ‘modern’ 45s of the time (Bill Harris, Alfie Davidson, Benny Troy etc.) huge potential. By no means an easy find these days either. https://youtu.be/cDzUOGRNXDs PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Johnny Howard - The Chase Is On (Bashie WD) Mint- £325 No introduction necessary really. One of THE biggest nighter sounds of the last ten years, a monumental slab of anthemic northern soul. A floor filler of unquestionable rarity, quality and desirability in gorgeous condition. https://youtu.be/KUjwYrpbQ-c PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Touch Of Class - Love Me Baby (Renfro) Vg+ £100 Sold Well here’s one you don’t see every day (or even every year come to that). The original (?) version, and best IMHO, of the Viola Edwards cut on the same label (and mysteriously shares the same catalogue number!?) Very hard to say which is rarer but this one really is a touch of class, an exquisite girl group crossover 45 that seems to have been completely ignored (or is just virtually unknown thanks to its rarity - only one clip on YouTube says a lot). Will appeal to lowrider collectors, but seems unknown in those circles too. https://youtu.be/DxsBngHYYFE Bishop and The Wallace Brothers - Sad Man/I Might Give Out But I Won’t Give Up (Magnetic Studios) Ex £100 Sold Talking of unknowns, here’s an incredible and rare piece of gorgeous Ohio deep soul (oh those horns) that generated quite a lot of interest when I posted it on the ‘Forgotten 60s Mid-tempo’ group yesterday. Flip is a decent, slightly funk edged dancer that’s had a bit of exposure in Europe. Both sides seem to be relatively unknown, it’s obscurity, rarity and quality not in question. https://youtu.be/wJJgzb9VfKc https://youtu.be/WOw7dXV2J7I Jonesetts -,Stop, Look And Listen/Once I Had A Love (Cougar) Ex (pressed slightly off centre, DNAP priced accordingly ) £25 Sought after by those in the known from the lowrider community but otherwise seems relatively unknown here and in Europe. Both sides are sublime with ‘Stop’ being the pick of the two. Seems to be slightly off centre as the arm sways a little bit doesn’t appear to affect play- priced accordingly should be £50. https://youtu.be/afEUtJSKc_k https://youtu.be/8Oix897uBXc PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Roy Redmond - Ain’t That Terrible (Loma WD) Ex £175 Funky edged bomb and so so in demand in the year or so before lockdown, this will be massive when clubs re-open. What price then? Lovely Ex condition, clean labels on this significantly rarer (than the issue) WD copy. Al Trahan - Can I Feel It (Spindle Top) Ex £100 Sold Texas funk bomb. This has everything to be massive with crossover, funk and hard edged northern potential. Already on the radar of the more progress DJs and venues. Rare too, get a lovely clean copy now while it’s still relatively cheap. Gene Chandler - In My Body’s House (Checker) Vg+ £80 Sold Last copy I had of this flew out. Written by Curtis Mayfield and arranged by Tom Tom do I need to say anything else? Been on the playlists of the more forward thinking DJs and the wants lists of the more open minded collectors for a while now and with those credits you can’t really go wrong. Demand has made this a tough one to find in the wild these days. PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Ralfi Pagan - Look At Her (Fabian) Vg+ £75 Gorgeous Latin lowrider 45 with enormous crossover potential. Totally under the radar and very hard to pull, especially in playable condition. Once this gets more widely known expect prices to double and then some. https://youtu.be/qOQslYn1els Charlie Harris Royal Ashbury Band - Gee, It’s Nice/More And More (Ashbury) Ex/Vg- £50 Gorgeous group harmony lowrider, that’s a very tough 45 to acquire (recently selling in mint- for £250). Now the good news is this side looks and plays Ex. The bad news is that whilst the flip is a nice crossover tune it is badly marked and consequently ticks, clicks and pops (sound file from actual record below). Still a fraction of the going rate! https://youtu.be/vI7KB5CNh4A https://youtu.be/1fQM5aPdyC8 Topics - All Good Things Must End/Try A Little Love (Heavy Duty Records) Mint- £30 Double sided dynamite. Killer group harmony lowrider ballad that has, thus far, stayed under the radar and recorded is still damn cheap b/w superb under the radar crossover.

Ambers - Baby (I Need You)/Blue Birds (New Art) Ex £275 There’s hot and then there’s hot. Very reluctant sale from my own collection. Currently one of the hottest lowrider 45s with massive demand across the US, Europe and the UK. And it’s no surprise, a simply sublime slab of sweet with a beat one side, flip it and you have an underplayed, under the radar dancer that just builds and builds. Both sides backed by the Shrine (yes Shrine) house band! Never been a common record, now almost impossible to find for under $300 and rising in leaps and bounds - it ain’t stopping any time soon either. Don’t sleep on this one. https://youtu.be/VWohTI8MdEo https://youtu.be/WqS9PTG4Oyk PayPal as friends and family or add 4%. Postage UK £8 registered and insured, Europe £8.95 tracked and signed.

Nate Reese with Brown Sugar - Message To The People (360 Degrees) Ex £100 Virtually unknown (and scarce) early ‘70s storming, funky edged soul bomb with a socio-political message. No more than a handful through eBay over the last fifteen years, a genuinely rare and under the radar dancer that sounds bang on for now. This will go massive in the right hands.

Lovations - (I Keep Singing) La La La Ooh/Heaven Told Me So (Part 111) Vg++ £350 Currently one of THE hottest lowrider 45s with demand from all corners of the globe and rightly so. Double sided dynamite, top drawer, hypnotic, lowrider one side, flip it for a slab of classy girl group northern with plenty of mileage left in it. So, so hard to find now and the price has been rising in leaps and bounds recently with a copy on Discogs going for over £400.

Cool Sounds - Where Do We Go From Here (America)/I’ll Take You Back (Warner Brothers) Vg++ £75 Hard edged funky dancer with a message that’s sounds just right for now, flip is sublime early ‘70s lowrider group harmony that’s totally under the radar. Big future this 45 and a tough one too. https://youtu.be/SCwTqGCYBo8 https://youtu.be/Qg4AIA4V4hM Lee Moses - I Can’t Take No Chances (Front Page) Vg+ (WOL on flip) £50 Stunning and still under the radar for many in the UK this 1970 lowrider bomb is bang on for now with tons of crossover appeal. Flip is a hard edged funky dancer that’s starting to appear on the playlists of more progressive DJs and venues. Truth - Come Back Home/Excedrin Headache #24 (Sounds of Cleveland) Mint- £10 Gorgeous ‘70s lowrider top side with funky edged flip that’s been on the playlists of some of the progressive venues over the last few years.

Joe Valentine - I’ve Lost The Only Love I Ever Had/Surely, I’ll Never Do You Wrong (Val) Mint- £200 Sold Top drawer Texas crossover rarity that’s long been on wants lists on both sides of the Atlantic. What will be less familiar to many s the stunning deep flip side, another lowrider grail making this one of the all-time great double siders. Gorgeous copy and genuine original with RDS 45-7225-1 DMRS720603 dead wax markings. https://youtu.be/alpxeEq5YtM https://youtu.be/b76NmPQx5-c Lou D. Washington and The Professionals - Stay Of Execution/Since I’ve Fallen In Love (Steeltown) Ex £150 Sold Underplayed and under the radar group harmony dancer, finally getting some well deserved attention in Europe. Flip is a big big lowrider want and has seen the price rise steadily over the past couple of years. Not a common record by any stretch of the imagination and still, currently, cheap considering how rarely it’s offered for sale. https://youtu.be/rf5MZwIIBt8 https://youtu.be/8m5tkfT-bcs Revlons.- (Oh Oh Oh) What A Love This Is/Did I Make A Mistake (Toy) Ex £150 Hold Pat Brady’s old Masqueraders c/up from the early ‘80s, a fantastic dancer that’s never really had its day. Flip is a sublime lesser known lowrider group harmony, sweet with a beat that will rise and rise in value. Much much rarer than it’s going rate indicates, a genuinely tough 45 to obtain. https://youtu.be/hQuW3JWJVSA https://youtu.be/pUaO7b9MwqY PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Desire - I’ll Never Turn My Back On You/Love Toll (Red Robin) Ex £325 A genuine lowrider grail that is so very very rarely offered for sale. ‘Never turn...’ is sublime 70s female ballad of the highest order, flip it and there’s an equally desirable under the radar funk edged bomb.

This will go massive in the right hands. https://youtu.be/EmLL8SW4yCg Charles Brimmer - Freedom Overspill (Brimco) Mint- £75 Unknown? Certainly not well known, one sale through Discogs some two and half years ago, missing from a number of the Charles Brimmer discographies I’ve found and no YouTube clip (except the one I’ve made for the purpose of this sale below). Brilliant funky edged, early ‘80s stepper with Brimmer’s incredible vocals. Perfect for today’s more progressive venues. https://youtu.be/qLSJ-fkL4RI Al Robinson - Sho Bout To Drive Me Wild (Pulsar) Vg++ £50 Talking of funky edged dancers ... this one is a seriously underrated and under the radar banger that can only rise in value.

Marvell Love - Gotta Have Love/Don’t Break That Rule (New World) Mint- £120 Hold ‘Break That Rule’ was an early modern Stafford monster that still has plenty of mileage left in it, but it’s the flip that’s on everyone’s wants list currently and rightly so - a superb slab of late ‘70s southern crossover soul that sounds so much earlier. Hard one. https://youtu.be/0gvXx9b-00c https://youtu.be/hGqx2R8WPgo Lee Moses - I Can’t Take No Chances (Front Page) Vg+ £65 (faint surface noise here and there hence grade and price, listen below it’s barely audible!)

Demand is high on this one, bargain price due to the faintest of crackle here and there, listen below. https://youtu.be/JmnPWxgZ_n4 Creations - You Mean So Much To Me/Nothing’s Too Good For You (Virtue) Vg+ (light label wear see image) £35 Sold Stunning mid-70s lowrider/crossover over group sound that again seems to be under most people’s radar.

Hi, Apologies will do

Kissi and Joe £400

Kissi and Joe now £350

Current high bid on Kissi and Joe £300

Lots of interest in Kissi and Joe so am going to run this until midnight Saturday UK time, I will update the thread as and when offers arrive. Currently I have two offers at £200.

Kissi and Joe - Baby Darlin’ (Blackjack) Vg Offers over £200 Previously UNKNOWN and UNLISTED ANYWHERE, no Discogs, no Popsike, no YouTube (except my clip below) it doesn’t even appear in any of the available Blackjack discographies (only appears as a missing cat. number), Google search results in zero results and nobody I’ve shared it with thus far knows it. It’s actually Kissi Jacobs and, as far as I am aware, unknown male vocalist (although sure I’ve seen a solo release on the same label but can’t find it anywhere). Gorgeous sweet with a beat lowrider sound that will be entirely exclusive to the buyer. Don’t sleep on this one you may never see another copy! https://youtu.be/afuVvTrf2H4 La’ Shell and The Shelletts - Something I’m Doin’ Wrong/ You Better Check Your Self (Eagle) Mint- £85 Sold Double sided dynamite Lowrider bomb topside that’s still under the radar, flip is quality up tempo northern to a tee and again is currently bubbling under (those who know, know). Group were Canadian but this is the US release (pretty sure was recorded in Detroit though I’m sure someone can correct me or confirm). Jonesetts - Stop, Look, Listen/Once I Had A Love (Cougar) Ex £40 Another fabulous female lowrider double hitter from ‘71 with crossover appeal. Seems to be pretty scarce and there’s certainly growing demand especially over the pond for this one. Not many gone through Discogs or eBay and it’s under the radar currently. Can see price on this doubling quite quickly. https://youtu.be/-2eq5m0AbRw https://youtu.be/ITfOV3-iA4M PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Bill Wright - A Man In Love (Midtown) Vg- £45 (sound clip from actual record below) Actually mega rare and massively in demand both from lowrider and crossover collectors with prices topping £200. Sadly, this copy is pretty beat with audible noise for the first 30 seconds or so and then intermittently thereafter (does improve as it goes on). Sound file below, priced accordingly. https://youtu.be/GR3rkXsEIcs New Cymbals - Please Baby Please (De-Lite) Mint- £40 Much like the aforementioned Fab Four this one flew out last time. Gorgeous and increasingly in demand early ‘70s version of The Sensations cut on Way Out, big demand for this one and the way prices are going for lowrider tunes this can only rise in value. A really classy lowrider for under a ton but for how long? https://youtu.be/wDUxD79J5Hw Truth - Come Back Home/Excedrin Headache #24 (Sounds of Cleveland) Mint- £15 Gorgeous ‘70s lowrider top side with funky edged flip that’s been on the playlists of some of the progressive venues over the last few years.
