A killer Norman Harris/Philly club classic, issued here on the original 12" single! The long version is 7 minutes long, too! (Soul) 12-inch, Vinyl record
(In a Salsoul sleeve with some wear. A-side label has a small sticker.)
A great tune from First Choice – a bit slower than some of their other disco hits, with a building soulful quality that's really great, and which includes a strong hook in the title phrase, one that really makes the song bubble! The b-side is a slightly longer mix by Bobby DJ Guttadaro. (Soul) 12-inch, Vinyl record
(White label promo in a Giant Single sleeve, with a round sticker.)
One of the best tracks ever by First Choice! "Let No Man" is a sweeping anthemic club track – with a righteous lyric about love and losing it, and some killer production by the Baker-Harris-Young team that really gives the girls a great soulful groove! The Frankie Knuckles mix has ... (Soul) read more12-inch, Vinyl record
Late 80's quiet storm vocal harmony. The House of Love Medley is a 10 minute medley of hits from Gamble & Huff and others material. (Soul) 12-inch, Vinyl record
2 great numbers from Ronnie's Love Satellite LP. "Midnight Plane"s a great slow-building tune from Ronnie – one that's a bit more soul-oriented than some of his jazzier tunes from the Columbia years, but in a great way! The tune begins with a lyric over most of the rhythm – ... (Soul) read more12-inch, Vinyl record
Titles include "You're Not Functioning", "Searching For Truth", "All My Love", "Live To Be Someone", "Awakening (Rhythm Track)", and "Sugarfree". (Soul) 12-inch, Vinyl record
One of Arthur Baker's shining moments – a poppy little tune, to be sure, but with a tight electro groove that's stood up a lot more than we would have thought at the time! Not strictly Hip Hop, but definitely an '80's breakin'/electro/dance classic (like the tracks on the Tommy Boy Perfect ... (Soul) read more12-inch, Vinyl record
(In a Streetwise sleeve, slightly wavy at the top right corner.)
An amazing tune – and one that still never fails to blow our mind! Just the first few notes of this one make our jaws drop in awe – wondering how George Clinton managed to get these odd and magical sounds out of the bass, guitar, and keyboards – and even though the tune's a ...

(Beige label promo in a stickered Disco sleeve, with some remnants from an adhesive seal at the opening.)
The "showdown...all the way live between the Sugarhill gang and the Furious Five". A nice early Furious Five cut that someone has sampled recently. And while were not the biggest Sugarhill Gang fans, they do alright on this cut with the Furious Five, who we suspect actually wrote the ... (Hip Hop) read more12-inch, Vinyl record
(In a Sugar Hill sleeve, with some aging and a cut corner. Label on Side B has a sticker spot.)
Classic material off the Hard To Earn album, with Lil Dap and Jeru on "Speak Ya Clout" over one of our favorite Premier productions! (Hip Hop) 12-inch, Vinyl record
The first Gang Starr single after they left Wild Pitch, from way back when Guru was still also known as Keith E. E. The original 12-inch version of "Just To Get A Rep" – the version included here – includes a whole extra verse at the end that gives a completely different ...

A great bass-heavy groover from The Gap Band – pulled off one of their best albums ever, Gap Band IV! The cut's got some really great funky bits on the bottom – acoustic piano wrapped around some more electric rhythms, in a blend that keeps the track as soulful as it is catchy! (Soul) 12-inch, Vinyl record
An 80s groove classic! "Outstanding" has some wonderful funky grooves and a killer 80s sound that's complete with very fat bass pedal grooves, and some tight keyboard work! The hook's a monster, and this rare single offers up 2 versions not on the LP! (Soul) 12-inch, Vinyl record
(Original pressing in a Polygram sleeve, with a lightly stained corner.)
An undisputed classic! The funky grooves of this early 80s single by Taana make it our favorite by her – and it's a non-stop killer that's served up here in a 9 and 6 minute version. Used as the sample for "Buddy" by De La Soul, and for a whole bunch of other tracks too! (Soul) 12-inch, Vinyl record
One of the most baroque singles we've ever heard from Taana Gardner – a long number that starts out with a spare and spacey vocal on the first minute or two, then which suddenly leaps into a tightly-crafted uptempo groove – running for over 10 minutes, and featuring lots of instrumental ...

The last bit of sweetness we ever received from Marvin Gaye – a sublime single that crossed over big, but which still retained all the loving soul of the later Motown years! The tune's got a nice little 80s groove undercurrent that somehow stands up even more strongly now than it did when ... (Soul) read more12-inch, Vinyl record
Eternal soul from Marvin Gaye in both its classic form AND in a contemporary light – on a nice little 10-inch single! Side 1 features the original 7-inch single mono versions of "What's Going On" and "God Is Love" – both as mindblowing today as ever – not only ... (Soul) read more12-inch, Vinyl record
Sure, you've heard it a million times – but "I Will Survive" is one heck of a song, dammit! This single features the 8 minute version of the cut – plenty for us! (Soul) 12-inch, Vinyl record
