Don't forget the incredible GLORIA SHANNON on the REAL SIDE label & the brilliant ROZETTA JOHNSON on the SHOTGUN label! Two unreleased crackers that can both can be seen, heard and purchased on our 'Previously Unissued' page below!

Finally, don't forget to check out the HIT AND RUN label page below as their two initial 45's are simply stunning (and of course, previously unreleased).

We've also added a number of other 45's this week and tweaked a few prices all across the site! Scan the site and keep your eyes open for those Soulful bargains! (Congratulations to those who bagged the Willie Gresham for a mere tenner last week from the 'More Tasty Soul 45's' page!!!)

Totally FANTASTIC and extremely DESIRABLE 45 from 1970

This really is a Holy Grail item for most Modern Soul & Northern Soul collectors alike! (The other side is of course a brilliant Deep Soul cut!)

A virtually unplayed copy too!

Note - There is a small mark on the bottom LHS of the label (see scan) & very faint label ring wear (you have to look very hard to spot it BUT for such a rare 45 we thought we'd better point it out!). The other side is spotless!!!

The price includes Fully Insured Delivery ANYWHERE in the world!
