For The Sake Of Love

LP (Item 22178) Capitol, 1980 — Condition: Very Good+
Nice batch of modern soul tracks by this obscure vocalist from the late 70s. The album's a mix of uptempo and mellower titles, but Donna's voice is nice and soulful, and the record sports some good arrangements by Benjamin Wright and Tom Tom 84. Titles include I'll Let Nothing Separate Us", "Didn't You Know", "If You Leave Me Now", and "Coming In For a Landing".  © 1996-2023, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Very Good + (plus)

  • Vinyl should be very clean, but can have less luster than near mint.
  • Should still shine under a light, but one or two marks may show up when tilted.
  • Can have a few small marks that may show up easily, but which do not affect play at all. Most marks of this quality will disappear when the record is tilted, and will not be felt with the back of a fingernail.
  • This is the kind of record that will play "near mint", but which will have some signs of use (although not major ones).
  • May have slight surface noise when played.

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.

Stormy Monday
Capitol, 1962. Very Good+
One of Lou's most jazz-oriented albums – featuring backing by Les McCann's famous trio with Leroy Vinnegar and Ron Jefferson, perfectly suited to Lou's soulful renditions of the tunes on the album.

Capitol, Mid 60s. Near Mint-

Lot Of Love
Capitol, 1986. Near Mint-
Lots of love from Melba Moore – one of those singers who never seemed to falter at all – graced with a fantastic voice that seems to really soar, no matter what the setting!

Roberta Flack

First Take
Atlantic, 1969. Very Good+
Maybe one of the most amazing debut records of all time – not only the record that first exposed the world to Roberta Flack, but a set that heralded so many changes to come in the following decade! Flack's genius here is almost impossible to put into words – part jazz, part soul, and ... LP, Vinyl record album

Wolfman Jack
Wooden Nickel, 1972. Very Good+ Gatefold
A pretty silly little album, cut by border radio DJ Wolfman Jack, with funky soul and rock backing from southern California!

Gordy, 1977. Very Good+
Maybe the best album ever from this late 70s Motown group – a set that's got the girls really stepping out with a nice degree of power – in a groove that's different than the usual female disco mode of the time!
