Joy, Sweet Joy/Yesterday's Fool

7-inch (Item 20495) P.E.U. Jadan, Early 70s — Condition: Very Good
Nice! We don't know if this is the same Love, Devotion, & Happiness that later recorded for RCA – but the single's an obscure one, on a tiny Chicago label, with arrangements by Tom Tom Washington. "Joy Sweet Joy" is a nice mellow mid-tempo track, with a dope production sound, and sweet soulful female vocals.  © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.
(Vinyl has an edge chip, and plays with a click at the very beginning of "Joy")

Very Good

  • Vinyl can have some dirt, but nothing major.
  • May not shine under light, but should still be pretty clean, and not too dirty.
  • May have a number of marks (5 to 10 at most), and obvious signs of play, but never a big cluster of them, or any major mark that would be very deep. Most marks should still not click under a fingernail.
  • May not look near perfect, but should play fairly well, with slight surface noise, and the occasional click in part of a song, but never throughout a whole song or more.
  • This is clearly a copy that was played by someone a number of times, but which could also be a good "play copy" for someone new.

Additional Marks & Notes

If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.

Stellar work from this lost Chicago soul group! The Marvelows were one of the city's best-ever harmony groups in the 60s, and this single has them working under the great Johnny Pate – who gives the tracks a sweetly polished sound that still remains nice and soulful! 7-inch, Vinyl record
