Columbia, 1972. Near Mint- ... $9.99
A great little harmony soul track – produced and arranged by Van McCoy, with a sad sweet feel that's every bit the best side of his early style! The track bubbles along in that great east coast AM radio feel – with a really catchy hook, and a slow sad style that's very different than ... read more 7-inch, Vinyl record

Two gems from the legendary pairing of these two great 70s jazz funk giants!

Volt, 1972. Near Mint- ... $6.99
Two totally excellent cuts by the second version of The Bar-Kays – both with a super-dope vocal soul style that's more fitting of the Dramatics! "You're The Best Thing" isn't the famous female soul song, but a different cut – with great guitar behind some stellar harmonies! ... read more 7-inch, Vinyl record

MGM, 1974. Near Mint- ... $2.99
Killer stuff from Johnny Bristol! "You and I" is one of his best early tracks – and it begins with this tight hard drum sound that's right out of Barry White's best funky tracks, and which works perfectly for Johnny's sweet soul vocals! 7-inch, Vinyl record
Truth & Soul, 2006. Very Good+ ... $11.99
Quite possibly the heaviest groove we've heard to date from Bronx River Parkway – a tune that snaps out with a stark little break on the beginning – really crackling with a heavy funk energy, but also sharing a bit of Wu-Tang like piano in the background! As the tune rolls on, the ... read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Kent (UK), Late 60s. New Copy ... $11.99
Maxine Brown and Chuck Jackson recorded some famous duets in the 60s – but here, each are featured as solo acts, on a great repressing of rare tracks! "I Wonder" is a very groovy number from Maxine – a bit more upbeat than some of her other work, and with a nice swing that's ... read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Ace (UK), Mid 50s. New Copy ... $11.99
A hard-romping single – one that presents the first takes of both of these R&B classics! Roy Brown is at his most hard-wailing on "Boogie At Midnight" – a tune that grooves along mightily in the best King Records style – heavy rhythms, raw vocals, and a great sax ... read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Cacophonic (UK), 1969. New Copy (pic cover)... $13.99
A very cool group from the Belgian jazz scene of the 60s – one we've never heard before, but who we'll definitely be looking for after hearing this single! The lineup features the great Babs Robert on tenor, with Daniel Max Schellekens on guitar, Jean-Pierre Destree on vibes, Marial Van ... read more 7-inch, Vinyl record

Mercury, 1973. Very Good+ ... $4.99
Great stuff from Roy C – two warm and wonderful southern soul tunes! "Don't Blame The Man" has a slightly percolated groove and some lyrics that are about as catchy as you'd guess from the title. "Bustin My Rocks" is actually better, with some slight Sam Cooke-y touches ... read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Josie, 1956. Very Good- ... $1.99
... 7-inch, Vinyl record
(Labels have writing in pencil and some aging.)
Karen, Mid 60s. Very Good- ... $9.99
One of the hardest soul hits of the 60s! The cut's got a rolling piano and bass groove that's simply sublime – made even better because the horns didn't show up for the session, so the vocals and piano carry all the grooves, making the track work harder than most of its contemporaries from ... read more 7-inch, Vinyl record

CAM/Four Flies (Italy), 1969. New Copy (pic cover, reissue)... $19.99
The great title track to one of the best scores from Italian maestro Stelvio Cipriani – a tune that bursts out with funky drums that kick into soaring orchestrations, topped by this wicked female vocal from Olympia – whose singing style is as vibrant as the instrumentation! Edda Dell'Or ... read more 7-inch, Vinyl record

Four Flies (Italy), 1980. New Copy (pic cover)... $19.99
Three great tracks from this later soundtrack by 70s maestro Stelvio Ciprani – all of them pretty darn wonderful! The "sequence 1" variation has this slow-building mix of percussion that's nicely exotic, but touched with some of the warmth of Stelvio's more famous crime and erotic ... read more 7-inch, Vinyl record

Lyn Collins —
Me & My Baby Got A Good Thing Going/People, 1972. Near Mint- ... $5.99
An excellent hard-to-find track by Lyn Collins! "Me & My Baby" has a wonderful gospelly intro, similar to "Message to the Soul Sisters", which then leaps into a great groove with a nice hard soul hook! The flip has sort of a nice Muscle Shoals-ish sound, with some good ... read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Atlantic, 1985. Very Good+ ... $11.99
Newmiss, Early 70s. Near Mint- ... $9.99
Sublime stuff! "I Don't Know" is a great deep soul harmony cut – rolling into a midtempo groove from the intro like a rare Stax gem, with some great guitar and organ riffing along with the vocals, which are sung in a mode that's raspy and sweet at the same time!

Finders Keepers (UK), Late 70s. New Copy (pic cover)... $13.99 15.99
Two very groovy tracks – both with a sweet 70s vibe! "Mein Maschine" starts out with this slow bubbling funky vibe, then keyboards start sprinkling over the tune as things get fuller and even funkier – making for a mighty nice groove that has all these glistening elements in ... read more 7-inch, Vinyl record

Janus, 1972. Very Good ... $16.99
Two excellent sides of Cymande's dubby funk from the mid 70's! "The Message" is probably the group's most famous cut – a trippy little number with a catchy rollicking groove that's pumped up by organ. Sampled famously, too – which means that you'll recognize it immediately! 7-inch, Vinyl record

Angel Bat Dawid is looking at a picture of Sun Ra on the cover – and with a record like this, she seems instantly able to challenge his long musical legacy!

Four Flies (Italy), 1970. New Copy (pic cover, reissue)... $19.99
Two of the funkiest tracks from the Italian film version of Dorian Gray – both real standouts in a store that was mostly moody and spooky overall!

Two great soul sides from Eddie & Ernie – heavy hitting work that's really beyond compare! "Bullets" was recorded in 1972, but never issued at the time – and is a tightly funky number with a really romping groove – one that seems to make the duo's vocals cook even ... read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
