Post-Slave, post-Hall Of Fame – but Steve Arrington's still going strong, and really working that 80s groove that he helped invent back in the day! Tracks are leaner and simpler than you'd expect – not a lot of nonsense, and a good focus on rhythmically catchy numbers. Titles include "Dancin In The Key Of Life", "Gasoline", "Stand With Me", "Turn Up The Love", "Brown Baby Boy", "Feel So Real", and "She Just Don't Know". © 1996-2022, Dusty Groove, Inc.
(Sealed original pressing! Cover has a small cutout notch.)
Sealed
This is what it says, that the record is still held fast in shrink-wrap. We tend to be pretty suspicious about these things, so if the shrink-wrap doesn't look original, or if the record seems to have undergone some damage over time, we'll probably take it out of the wrapper to ensure that it's in good shape — which is why we don't have more of these. In some cases the shrink-wrap may be torn in spots, but if it's not possible the record has been taken out and played, the record will still qualify as "Sealed".
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.

Spinners LiveAtlantic, 1975. Near Mint- 2LP Gatefold
A fascinating little record by The Spinners – and a real contrast to some of their other Atlantic albums!

Johnny Bristol
Bristol's CremeAtlantic, 1976. Very Good+
An excellent smooth soul groover from Johnny Bristol!

Garden Of Love LightAtlantic, 1976. Very Good+

Possibly the best instrumental album that James Brown cut for Smash!

Titles include " ... LP, Vinyl record album

Specialty Of The HouseWestbound, 1975. Very Good+
Spanky's last album before her recent revival, a jazzy soulful effort cut for Westbound, with arrangements by Johnny Allen, and a nice moody mellow sound.
