The Crowd
Mango Walk / Beefy Dub
Tropical Sound Tracks : TST 108 (45s)
Using all his experience gathered whilst with The Upsetters, Aggrovators, Now Generation etc. joined forces with the gifted musician Maurice "Clive" Hunt to construct this 1976.
The Crowd were indeed a "crowd" with as many as 10 members at any given time, brought together by Geoffrey Chung for this heavy weight dance session. Combining several outside influences, including Funk, Afro, Latin nfluence into a Jamaican rhythms.
Surely this addictive journey would also be of interest to Funk, Latin & Afro DJ's as well as Jamaican music fans.
A cocktail of percussion, horns, keyboard, wah wah guitar, chanting voices meld into a flood of insistent dance.
Listen we defy you not to get hooked.
Condition Report
Two flawless labels, perfect previously unplayed vinyl, revealing only the finest storage hairline under direct light.
Nora Dean / Randy's All Stars
Want Man / Man
Randy's : RAN 508 (45s)
Condition Report
xxx on a-side label, full gloss vinyl a-side vinyl reveal a mild surface scuff not affecting play. Flipside vinyl is a strong clean mint minus as is the label
Bonnie
Did You Get The Message / A Man Called Dan
Ska Beat : JB 270 (45s)
It is so hard to acquire these mid-60's Rock Steady 45s in this tip-top state.
A 1967 Dandy Livingston project sending a message to "Rude Boys" on a wave of infectious rhythms, crisp guitar break and soaring vocal group harmonies., with Bonnie Blue Frankston in fine Soulful voice.
But it's the instrumental flipside that really catches the attention, with a masterclass the saxophone punching through one of those infectious far-east influenced arrangements. "A Man Called Dan" ranks right up there along side some of the most addictive of Jamaican born instrumentals. A record demanding, one play is no where near enough..
A 45 for those Ska/Reggae collectors seeking 45's they'll never need to upgrade.
Condition Report
Two impeccable labels, 4 prong centre intact, super clean vinyl only gives up a sleeve contact blemish or two when angled in the light.
Pauline Rogers
Round and Round / Come Into My Parlour
Atco: 6071 (45s)
A recording that will pull the attention R&B, Popcorn & vocal group collectors alike, so many aspects to like, pulled from a plethora of styles.
Flip it over, the production is more straight-forward but just as compelling, as Pauline lifts the pace and his it out-of-the-park with a slab of joyous Sister R&B/Blues; jumping out of the speakers from start to finish. A muscular performance from this under recorded sister of defiance..
Two great sides, hard to acquire, at this level of condition except some serious competition, from several camps.
Condition Report
A stunning copy, two perfect gold text labels, vinyl reveals only the finest sleeve contact hairline under direct light. Most likely previously unplayed, still housed in birth-sleeve.
Rolling Stones
Rolling Stones / 1965 UK EP with cover
Decca: SDE 7503 EP PS (EP)
Beatles, Pink Floyd and The Rolling Stones releases are especially scrutinized to precise pressing details.
The 1965 EP has been pressed and repressed so man times, home and abroad, trying t locate an authentic first press is no easy challenge.
Not only does this listing have the cleanest, most perfect of flipback laminated covers we have witnessed in memory (see images), along with two flawless labels (see images). The vinyl also gives away hardly a hint of turntable time. You will have to angle and re-angle in the light to reveal a few very light storage hairlines or blemishes, of course plays clean
Strong clean Mint - / Mint - / Mint - await the owner..
But more importantly machine stamped matrix reads EFF-2850-1C flipside matrix EFF-2851-1C
A listing for Stones fans seeking as near perfection as possible, displaying first press matrixes.
Condition Report
You have to angle and re-angle in the light to reveal a few light storage hairlines, plays clean. Labels reveal no spindle trails, just a mild dulling from storage inside the cover. The laminated cover itself is totally clean back and front and quite easily the finest example we have seen in memory, inspect the images carefully, you may reveal only the mildest of veins, or maybe you won't because they are so light, we doubt the scans will show them up.
Clarence Samuels
Chicken Hearted Woman / Got o Place To Call My Own
Excello: 2093 DJ (45s)
Take listen to his outrageous guitar picking on a "lost" flipside "Chicken Head Woman" as he mimics a struttin' chicken searching for corn, before his rasping voice bulldozes into the Bluesy rhythms. Repeating the feat with an instrumental break towards the ending.
The lead side is a more conventional Blues rocker, backed up with brass, as he swings though the lyrics in uplifting ease.
Two great sides, with "Chicken" being completely outside-the-box and unforgettable.
We'll never witness a copy in this standout condition again, do not pass by
Condition Report
Two clean promo labels,
T. J. Brown
London Town / Guajira
Cartridge : CR-S 11 (45s)
Renowned keyboard player, crafts a synth saturated dance groove featuring some killer Jazz influenced keyboard skills from T. J. himself. Not overlooking his soulful vocal approach, the man treated us to with his beseeching version of James Brown's - It's A Man's World.
This seldom seen 45 treats us to a double delight, as the flipside lifted from his "Brown Is Brown" album injects Latin influences with another dance offering "Guajira"
A street-level production by Sonny Roberts that seldom surfaces for sale, especially in this impeccable condition.
Condition Report
Two flawless labels, perfect previously unplayed vinyl, revealing only the finest storage hairline under direct light.
Warren Storm
Slow Down / Love Rules The Heart
Sincere: 104 (45s)
Warren a prolific D.I.Y. artist who service his own label "Sincere" for two years with fully 6 x 45s released. "Slow Down" being his best Rocker out of the bunch. Warren was persistent in his attempts to go nationwide with his Rock N Roll talents, impressive guitar playing and snarling voice. There was a brief flirt with national labels like Dot, Nasco in te late 59's early 60's. But after 1962 he recorded for small local labels or his own labels he set-up in an attempt of a hit. Sadly, thogh this "Swamp Man" although he recorded ad released records for 4 decades, the break never came.
"Slow Down" is his most-wanted 45, on his own label and a killer version of Larry's "sleeper"
Hard to find..
Condition Report
3 x's on the label, Warren was determined to catch the radio DJ's attention, flipside label is Mint minus. Multiple light surfaces hairlines, none of which affect plays. Plays clean (listen)
