These Arms (special version) (double a-side single)

12-inch (Item 639099) Epic, 1981 — Condition: Very Good+
(Promo.)

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.

Kelli-Arts, Early 80s. Very Good+
An obscure one by this late Chicago soul combo – with a strong harmony sound that's in the best mode of some of the city's 70s groups, and a smooth 80s groove style that makes the track pop nicely with keyboards and bass. 12-inch, Vinyl record
Jam, Early 80s. Very Good-
Classic T-Funk – chanted vocals, massive, massive bass and crisp horn stabs all over heavily syncopated beats, issued on their own DC indie label to boot!

Hit work from the legendary Peter Brown – a key player in far more club sides than we can remember, but a real chart-topper with this one!

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! 12-inch, Vinyl record
