Told ya I'm busy... Hope all's well Val! Thanks Seb. Your latest mix doesn't look too bad either (can be found on our website along with all our previous mixes here ).

Hello all, here's my Function soul mix #5; a full hour of northern, crossover, modern, plus quite a few funkier bits (you have been warned )! All records have, or will be, played at our club Function in Malmoe, Sweden, that I run together with friends Sebastian, Jonte and Joppe. Hope you'll like it (or some of it )...

Now sorted. I saw James was also looking for a copy.

Update and bump.

Hi, these records all have some flaws and are therefore sold at reduced prices. Positive Motivation - Motivating music / You brought me back - Wonderful (First minute G+, the rest VG-. Looks pretty trashed in all honesty. Several sold for $400+ recently) SOLD Magnificents - Do the whole rock / Voice of the flower - KenTone £20 (Shiny vinyl apart from some strange erosion marks that cause a hiss sound. Not that bad, as the music plays loud and strong. Clean labels.) Bright Moments - She's so fine / Inst - BTU £20 (Again, looks nice and shiny with clean labels, but got one nasty scratch that causes noticable pops during the first minute. The rest plays near perfect and it's 5.54...) Willie & The Mighty Magnificents - Funky (8) corners Pt 2 (inst) / Pt 1 - All Platinum (Looks VG-, plays VG+. Swol, ring wear. Definitely fine for djing.) SOLD Lee Morris - I have love for you / Inst - Starville £15 (VG Plays with slight background noise throughout, swol.) Shipping is £3.50 to US, UK and the rest of Europe, within Scandinavia £2. Paypal or cash, no checks please. Pm or email me at helena_stromdahl [at] hotmail.com Thanks!

Part 1 has vocals, part 2 is the much better instrumental. Got a spare copy if anyone's interested.

Yes he was. Though he first played it at our club Function in Malmoe, Sweden. He will return to our club for a third visit (wish I could have him as a resident) on Dec 13th if anyone wants to hear him dj in Europe... Unknowns too. One of the nicest guys I've met.

Hi Maria, hope you and Arthur are doing fine. Miss you guys. Yes, Copenhagen is only 30 mins away from Malmoe with train (they depart every 20 mins and there's no customs between Sweden and Denmark). Our friends Gustav and Johannes are putting on soul & funk nights at a bar every Thursday here in Malmoe. On Saturday October 11th (though you might've already gone home by then) myself, Sebastian and the rest of the Function residents are djing at our venue in the smaller room. In the main room there's a live performance by a Swedish "soul" (pop shite ) singer. Think that's what's happening that week. Suppose the best place to find any decent records for sale in this area is Sebastian's flat. Hope you enjoy your trip!

The label is Jabner and the flip is called 'Longin' for you'. Early 80's. Great double sider!

The last one on ebay (a few months ago) went for around $1300 if my memory serves me right. /H (proud owner of both releases. )

Still kicking myself for not buying this when it was offered on another forum a while back. Never seen this release before...so cool! My Rising Sun copy on Suncut is now sold.

Always thought the Suncut one had an earlier sound to it, but I don't know the exact release dates. Anyway, I still have a spare of the Suncut release, that looks terrible but plays ok, if anyone's interested. (Plus my precious copy on Kingston of course, but that's not for sale. ) This is now SOLD Thanks for all interest.

Sent you a pm Mark!

Ok ok, I confess I missed that copy, my bad for not exploring the Early rock'n'roll section. And soulis; yes this is from the mid 60's.

It does not, not on US ebay anyway. I got mine for $100 about seven months ago. Haven't seen many more since then, and I check ebay almost every day. Her other 45 'You better watch out' comes up more often in my experience. https://www.popsike.com/php/quicksearch.php...t=dorothy+berry Btw, thanks Seb for emailing Oliver!

The flip 'Shindig City' is better IMO, very Martha & Vandellas-like. My copy is now SOLD

That one is already sold I believe. However, Manship had a copy for £40 last time I checked. One copy also ended on ebay about two days ago.

Nah, never seen the video before, but just noticed that the record shop guys in the video are actual record shop owners and also promotors of a big soul night in Stockholm.

There's also a Swedish version by a pop artist, which was a rather big hit over here about five years ago:

Believe it or not, this actually sounded really good when I heard Honky play it out. ( ) It's also co-written by a Swedish pop star, Claes af Geijerstam.

Two more records for sale added in the first post. Here's a full mp3 of Masters of Music: Masters_Of_Music___Trouble_don_t_last_always___Lake.mp3 Another rare modern soul tune.

Gigi & The Charmaines and Gwen McCrae also sold. Might consider offers on the rest...
