Get Over/What I'm Getting Now & What I'm Used To, Ain't The Same

7-inch (Item 7420) Down To Earth, Early 70s — Condition: Near Mint-
Out Of Stock

7-inch, Vinyl record

✈
A funky classic from this lost Chicago soul artist! "Get Over" has nice tight backing, with a raw James Brown-esque sound, courtesy of Burgess Gardner. A nice one from the old days, and the flip's pretty keen, too!  © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Near Mint - (minus)

  • Black vinyl that may show a slight amount of dust or dirt.
  • Should still be very shiny under a light, even with slight amount of dust on surface.
  • One or two small marks that would make an otherwise near perfect record slightly less so. These marks cannot be too deep, and should only be surface marks that won't affect play, but might detract from the looks.
  • May have some flaws and discoloration in the vinyl, but only those that would be intrinsic to the pressing. These should disappear when the record is tilted under the light, and will only show up when looking straight at the record. (Buddah and ABC pressings from the 70's are a good example of this.)
  • May have some slight marks from aging of the paper sleeve on the vinyl.
  • Possible minor 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.



You might be interested


Wand, 1973. Very Good+
Later work by General Crook – very different than his funkier sides of the 60s, but still pretty darn great! "Best Years Of My Life" is a wonderful ballad cut – strings gently gliding as Crook's rich vocals come into deliver a sweet and sad lyric. "Testification" ... 7-inch, Vinyl record

General Crook

Gimme Some (parts 1 & 2)
Down To Earth, Late 60s. Near Mint-
Very nice funky stuff! This may be the best single ever by this lost Chicago funk artist. It's got a great hard groove, in a very James Brown way, and raw heavy lyrics in the best funky 45 tradition. 7-inch, Vinyl record
Verve, 1962. Good
An overlooked gem from the Verve bossa years – a session that features the sweet tenor sax work of Stan Getz, alongside some swinging bossa arrangements from the great Gary McFarland! Given the strength of Gary's own work for Verve at the time, it's no surprise that he's a perfect ... 7-inch, Vinyl record
Tamla, 1973. Near Mint-
Two excellent tracks from Marvin Gaye's Let's Get It On LP, wonderful sultry soul filled out with the rich approach to arrangement by David Van DePitte that made Marvin's work standout throughout the 70s. 7-inch, Vinyl record

Frank Sinatra & Count Basie

It Might As Well Be Swing (7 inch jukebox ep)
Reprise, Early 60s. Good (pic cover)
A delightful little jukebox EP from one of Sinatra's greatest records ever – pure genius all the way through! Frank's backed here by the orchestra of Count Basie, with some incredible arrangements by Quincy Jones that really have a jazzy, syncopated kick to them. The move seems to be an ... 7-inch, Vinyl record
King, 1967. Near Mint-
Really early work from Bobby Byrd – a single that's produced by James Brown, but without the funky touches of later years! "I Found Out" has stepping strings next to Bobby's deep soul vocals – and "I'll Keep Pressing On" is similar – again with strings, but ... 7-inch, Vinyl record
Imperial, 1955. Good (pic cover)
(NOTE – in a plain sleeve – no picture sleeve!) 7-inch, Vinyl record

Carlo Rustichelli

L'Homme Presse
Polydor (France), 1977. Near Mint- (pic cover)
A rare EP for the film L'Homme Presse – music that has this open, floating sort of vibe – light strings, and isolated piano lines – almost at a level that's like some of our favorite French composers from the early 70s. There's some lightly classical touches, but the sound is ... 7-inch, Vinyl record
Atlantic, 1971. Near Mint-
Nice two part version of his big hit! Recorded at Muscle Shoals, with a nice hard groove that only gets better on part 2. 7-inch, Vinyl record
Dial, 1972. Very Good+
2 nice bits from Joe Tex, the a-side with a nice raw funk sound featuring some gritty funky drums, and the b with more of his trademark southern soul. 7-inch, Vinyl record
United Artists (UK), 1980. Near Mint- (pic cover)
(Original UK pressing, with 4 prong center intact. Sleeve has minimal wear.) 7-inch, Vinyl record
Arista (UK), 1983. Near Mint- (pic cover)
(Includes the complete sticker sheet! Sleeve has a "Free Cats Customize Kit" sticker.) 7-inch, Vinyl record
