Colemine, 2016. New Copy ... $5.99
One of the rawest, raunchiest grooves we've heard from AJ & Co to date – a tune that's got a heavy slow-funk drum part that launches the whole thing along – and some slinky stepping, hard-sung lyrics that almost give the song a pimp walk sort of vibe! "Party Music" is a ... (Funky 45's, Deep Funk) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Big Crown, 2016. New Copy ... $8.99
A wicked set of funky steel drums – a bad-stepping number from the Bacao Rhythm & Steel Band, and just the kind of hard funk cut we're always digging for on steel drum records! We hardly ever find gems this good though – as "Pimp" has these slow-snapping drums that make ... (Funky 45's, Deep Funk) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Big Crown, 2016. New Copy (pic cover)... $8.99 9.98
The Bacao Rhythm & Steel Band take on two classics from the old school – both with their trademark mix of steel drums and funk! "Scorpio" is the classic jam from Dennis Coffey – taken in a way here that's completely different, as the drums take on the guitar parts – ... (Funky 45's, Deep Funk) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Timmion (Finland), 2018. New Copy ... $9.99
Sweet soul from Jonny Benavidez – a singer who's got a voice that takes us back to the late 60s era of work by Ralfi Pagan and Joe Bataan – and who comes across here in an equally heartbreaking mode! Cold Diamond & Mink provide some nicely stepping grooves in the background, warmed ... (Funky 45's, Deep Funk) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Breakdown Brass —
Mary Jane/Mixto, 2016. New Copy (reissue)... $8.99 9.98
The Breakdown Brass take on Rick James' "Mary Jane" – turning the whole cut into a horn-heavy instrumental, with a groove that's more 70s funk than the vintage of Rick's original tune! The whole thing comes off great – the horns really hold onto the hook – and the ... (Funky 45's, Deep Funk) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Colemine, 2017. New Copy ... $5.99
That tiger's trotting at a mighty cool pace – a slow-funk groove that almost seems to have a touch of Ethio-exoticism in the horns – while the drums and guitar stay in more familiar funky territory overall! The guitar is even wilder on the flipside – as "Enter" has kind ... (Funky 45's, Deep Funk) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Old Maid, 2019. New Copy ... $9.99 10.98
There's a slight Meters groove in the background of "Zodiac" – the way that the bassline and drums work together – but the front space of the cut's also got this unusual spoken bit, with J-Zone bad-rapping quickly, in a style that's very unusual for a funk track! The approach ... (Funky 45's, Deep Funk) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Big Crown, 2017. New Copy ... $8.99 9.98
El Michels and Wu-Tang – always a wonderful combination, as you'll hear on this fantastic funky 45! The group take on "Shadowboxin" and strip it right down to its roots – just bassline, slow-stepping drums, and a wicked bit of organ – completely different without any ...

Big Crown, 2017. New Copy ... $6.99 7.98
"Coming Home" is a warmly funky groove from the great Lee Fields – a cut that seems to equally balance deep soul and sweet soul modes, as Lee himself has been doing on the best of his recent work! There's a great flow to the electric side of the instrumentation – which is ... (Funky 45's, Deep Funk) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Big Crown, 2019. New Copy ... $8.99
A cracker from the legendary Lee Fields – a tune that takes things at a nicely easygoing pace in the rhythms, with loads of excellent El Michels production touches – which leaves Lee right out front to crackle the lyrics with a hell of a lot of charm! "Will I Get Off Easy" ... (Funky 45's, Deep Funk) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Big Crown, 2017. New Copy ... $6.99 7.98
A fantastic cut from Lee Fields – one that begins with almost a Timmy Thomas-style drum machine beat on the intro – then adds in this weeping piano, ala Hi Records, and really blossoms when Lee's deep soul vocals come into play! The flipside features "Lover Man" – a ... (Funky 45's, Deep Funk) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Colemine, New Copy ... $6.99
A nice solo single from Monophonics singer Kelly Finnigan – stepping out nicely on the slow funk ballad "I Don't Wanna Wait" – a cut that's got lots of wonderful 70s sweet soul touches on the production, but funky drums at the core! Finnigan moves nicely between deep and ... (Funky 45's, Deep Funk) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Funk Night, 2018. New Copy ... $12.99
A wicked little slow funk number – one that definitely takes its time as the drums break and basslines set up the groove – followed by wah-wah guitar that's moving at an equally relaxed pace – yet which, like the rest, all come together with the kind of sharp, soulful quality that' ...

(Limited edition of 250!)
Funk Night, 2018. New Copy ... $12.99
Hanz Mambo lives up to the watery sound of his previous single with "Mer Baltique" – a dreamy little instrumental that has lots of echoey guitar over a slowly-loping groove – complete with some very nice watery effects in the middle! "Breaking Wave" is slower and ... (Funky 45's, Deep Funk) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
(Hand-numbered limited edition of 250!)
Funk Night, 2019. New Copy ... $12.99
A moody little funk track from the production genius of Misha Panfilov – whose work seems to be moving more and more into a category of its own! "The Rays" has a strange, spare vocal chorus that's abstracted and echoed in the production – used wordlessly alongside an echoey ... (Funky 45's, Deep Funk) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
(Hand-numbered limited edition of 250!)
Big Crown, 2018. New Copy ... $8.99 9.98
Sweet soul from a contemporary group – one who work with just the right blend of falsetto and funky on "This Is My Story"! "Blue Light" is even more laidback – with a lightly-tripping groove and guitar line that feel lifted right from the east coast sweet soul scene ... (Funky 45's, Deep Funk) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Colemine, 2017. New Copy ... $5.99 8.98
Two funky gems from Ikebe Shakedown – both showcasing the group at their best! "Supermoon" starts out like an Afro Funk jam, but has an internal complexity that rivals classic Lalo Schifrin soundtrack work – and somewhere in the middle, there's also this weird noisy guitar ...

Funk Night, 2019. New Copy ... $12.99
Massive funky drums kick this one off right at the start – with fast wangly guitar, and some super-sharp female lead vocals from Kim Dawson – done with a raw power that's a lot more Lyn Collins or Marva Whitney than most other funk singers on the market! "Back It Up" is an ... (Funky 45's, Deep Funk) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
(Limited to 250 copies.)
Funk Night, 2019. New Copy ... $12.99
The Great Revivers provide the music, and Lucid Paradise handles the vocals – a funky match made in heaven!

Funk Night, 2019. New Copy ... $12.99
One of three great seven inch pairings of The Great Revivers and vocal group Lucid Paradise – with a strong female lead on "Not The One", which has the tune soaring to the skies over the funky drums at the core! Drums are equally tight on "B Boy Anthem", but the vocals ... (Funky 45's, Deep Funk) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
(Limited to 250 copies.)
Funk Night, 2019. New Copy ... $12.99
"Star" is a funky number with skittish drums and a loping guitar line – which creates a slightly spooky groove – and really brings a lot to the female lead and male backup vocals! Drums on "Get On Up" are tighter and more fast-breaking – and the tune's got ... (Funky 45's, Deep Funk) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record

Timmion (Finland), 2019. New Copy ... $8.99 9.99
The sweet soul vocals of Gerald McCauley sound wonderful here – delivered with this slow, heartbreaking pace that really fits the mellow funk laid down by Cold Diamond & Mink – almost making the whole thing feel like a classic New Jersey/Philly gem from back in the day! (Funky 45's, Deep Funk) 7-inch, Vinyl record
Dunham/Daptone, 2011. New Copy ... $5.99
Beautiful! "Crossing" is a sublime ballad number by the Menahan Street Band – a funky instrumental, yet taken at a slow-stepping pace that's really amazing – like some lost backing track from a hip early 70s harmony soul number – complete with well-placed beats, and ...

Colemine, 2018. New Copy ... $5.99
This is the first we've ever heard of Mestizo Beat – and we hope we'll be hearing a lot more in the future! "Featherbed Lane" has a lot harder edge than you'd expect from the title – early 70s Latin funk with a strong flute part upfront – almost like some of the funky ...

Funk Night, 2018. New Copy (pic cover)... $6.99
A fantastic funky cut from this cool Estonian combo – one that has some nice spooky touches in production, but a hard funk vibe all the way through!

Transistor Sound, 2018. New Copy ... $8.99
A fantastic take on the classic "Beggin" – a lost Four Seasons tune from the 60s that's gone onto much greater fame in recent years! The Monophonics present the tune in a way that keeps all the glory of the original – from the funky drums, to the romping keyboards, to the ... (Funky 45's, Deep Funk) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Funk Night, 2019. New Copy ... $6.99
There's a great break right at the start of this one – which then leads into a warmer organ line, almost ala-Hi Records – which is pushed forward by a sweetly compressed rising horn section too! The whole thing's instrumental – and it's backed by the even funkier "Shades Of ... (Funky 45's, Deep Funk) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record

Color Red, 2019. New Copy (pic cover)... $8.99 9.98
Two funky nuggets from New Mastersounds – each with a special guest! Vocalist Lamar Williams Jr joins the group on "Shake It" – a tune that's almost got a Meters-like starkness to the groove that gets things going – but which takes on a bit more fullness from the vocals ...

Colemine, 2017. New Copy ... $5.99 7.98
Double dose of Orgone in prime funky hero mode! "Bulletproof" is a tight jam with a bit of a 70s cinematic funk feel with tight horns courtesy of their friends in Ikebe Shakedown and some really cool, unpredictable changes as it rolls along – really ratcheting up the percussion ...

It's Soul Time, 2016. New Copy ... $6.99
A hip contemporary combo from Queens – but one who get a great sort of indie soul vibe to their music! The style is less the deep funk of other recent groups, than the sort of east coast sound from the pre-disco years – as the R&R Soul Orchestra leap into a wonderful upbeat reading ...

Colemine, 2019. New Copy ... $5.99
Guitar, bass, and drums all really seem to love each other to death at the start of "Rugged Walk" – coming on with a unified groove that's peppered with horns in just the right way – while the guitar kind of wangles a bit of a solo next to a trumpet, and the whole thing ...

Timmion (Finland), 2018. New Copy ... $8.99
Cold Diamond & Mink provide some killer slow funk backing here – so much so that the tune's already got this great moody vibe before Emilia Sisco comes in with the lyrics – which have a heartbreaking vibe, and work with the funky backings almost like a classic tune by Ann Peebles ...

Timmion (Finland), 2017. New Copy ... $9.99
A contemporary cut, but one that's got a great early 70s sweet soul vibe – as Carlton June delivers this fantastic heartbreaking lyric, while the Cold Diamond & Mink combo give him a slow funk drumbreak backup!

Timmion (Finland), 2019. New Copy ... $8.99
Funky drums, descending horns, and riffing guitar really set the scene here in a great way – giving the track a gentle groove, but one that's nice and warm too – a perfect foil for the deep soul vocals of Carlton Jumel Smith, a singer who may well be one of the best discoveries so far ...

Schema (Italy), 2019. New Copy (pic cover)... $12.99
Two funky instrumentals from Smuggler Brothers – neither of which are on their debut album!

Timmion (Finland), 2018. New Copy ... $9.99
Massive drums really get this one going – a hard, heavy, almost-classic drum break that begins the tune – and sounds great next to the more easygoing vocals of Willie West – as he brings a great deep soul touch to the tune, alongside this floating flute played by Jimi Tenor! ...
