    Label: Threshold 67006
    Year: 1971
    Condition: M
    Last Price: $22.00. Not currently available for sale.

    This great single is one of the few occasions when the group really rocked out big time... an essential Moody Blues track! Note: This 45 record omes in a Near Mint copy of the release's cool picture sleeve. The labels look Mint. The vinyl (styrene) looks almost untouched, and the audio comes through pristine Mint!

  • Put Your Mind At Ease by Every Mother's Son
    Label: MGM 13788
    Year: 1967
    Condition: M
    Price: $20.00

    From a warehouse find, this is a new, unplayed stock copy with a drillhole, in its original picture sleeve. Terrific Bubblegum/Sunshine Pop single in the best Monkees tradition. :-)

  • Someday, Someway by Marshall Crenshaw
    Label: WB 29974
    Year: 1982
    Condition: M
    Last Price: $15.00. Not currently available for sale.

    The A side is one of the best hits of the neo-Rockabilly wave that swept the U.S. and England in the early 1980's. With his note-perfect first album and great songwriting (produced by Richard Gottehrer, who served up so much great rock'n'roll froth in the 1960's with such acts as the Angels and McCoys), Crenshaw seemed like a new Buddy Holly. The non-LP B side, which Bette Midler later took up the charts, is credited to 'Marshall Crenshaw and the Handsome, Ruthless and Stupid Band.' Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Warner/Reprise Records factory sleeve. It has no notable flaws, grading Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio).

  • The Lonely Surfer by Jack Nitzsche
    Label: Reprise 20202
    Year: 1963
    Condition: M-
    Price: $25.00

    Nitzsche arranged many of Phil Spector's biggest hits on Philles. Here he stepped out and made a masterpiece under his own name... simply divine! This is one of the nicest copies I've yet had for sale since opening in 2001. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Reprise Records factory sleeve. It has Near Mint labels. The vinyl (styrene) looks Near Mint with a few light scuffs, and the audio is very close to Mint.

  • Runaround by Regents
    Label: Gee 1071
    Year: 1961
    Condition: M-
    Price: $30.00

    This is an extraordinarily clean copy of this great single. The labels are almost Mint, and the vinyl and audio are Near Mint as well.

  • Funk #49 by James Gang
    Label: ABC 11272
    Year: 1970
    Condition: M-
    Price: $18.00

    This, the group's first single to crack the Hot 100, was a new version of Funk #48, which they released the previous year on Bluesway. Both are to-die-for classics of guitar rock, showcases for Joe Walsh. On this pressing, the title is spelled "Funk No. 49" rather than "Funk #49." Though not mentioned on the label, the Mono-mix 45 has a superior, edited version of a longer album track (the 45 edit is about 30 seconds shorter). Note: This copy comes in a vintage ABC Records factory sleeve.

  • Marianne/ Nothin' To Do But Today by Stephen Stills
    Label: Atlantic 2820
    Year: 1971
    Condition: M-
    Price: $12.00

    What a surprisingly great single! The A side is Stills at his power-poppy best with an absolutely great top 40 hit (though it didn't actually make it there), and the B side is a funky-country-bluesy-Hendrixy workout that's irresistable! Shows how much great stuff you can fit on a little 45 when you really try. :-) The A side, incidentally, features Nils Lofgren and Eric Clapton joining Stills on guitars. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Atlantic Records factory sleeve. It has Mint labels and Near Mint vinyl and audio.

  • She Has Funny Cars by Jefferson Airplane
    Label: RCA 9140
    Year: 1967
    Condition: M
    Price: $25.00

    Everybody knows and loves the A side of this great single, but the B side is a 2-star destination in its own right! It's an amazing amalgam of Bo Diddley, Beatles, and psychedelia all stirred up into an exciting thrill ride that's uniquely Jefferson Airplane. Now, exactly what her funny cars are and what's so funny about them is a secret the band keeps to themselves. But hey, the words sound great anyway! Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage RCA Victor Records factory sleeve. It has no notable flaws, grading Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio).

  • Itchycoo Park by Small Faces
    Label: Immediate 501
    Year: 1967
    Condition: M-
    Last Price: $20.00. Not currently available for sale.

    This 1967 hit is a classic of the pop/psych genre, and succeeds in being closely Beatlesque. It was the first U.K. record to feature the new "flanging" effect. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Immediate Records factory sleeve. It has very nearly Mint labels and audio, despite some notable scuffing on the vinyl.

  • You're The One by Buddy Holly
    Label: Coral 62558
    Year: 1969
    Condition: M
    Price: $60.00

    This is a beautiful Mint copy of a single released in 1969 to commemorate Buddy Holly's untimely 1959 death, along with its striking picture sleeve. I had first heard this lovely version many years ago on a U.K.-released double album set Buddy Holly: Legend. The liner notes to that album describe the track as follows:
    "Love Is Strange" was one of Buddy's favorite songs. The version he recorded was around a minute long and the track included here has been "stretched" by splicing and re-recording the original tape. Norman Petty's later treatment of the recording, adding organ sounds to create the impression of strings, probably comes fairly close to Buddy's own ideas for the song.

    As for the B side, this rarity was cowritten with Waylon Jennings and not released until well after Holly's death. Among other places, it appeared on the B side of U.K. single in 1964. Upon hearing it, I knew I'd heard it before and after wracking my brain for awhile, I remembered that it was a version by the neo-Rockabilly singer/songwriter Billy Swan released in 1976 that was in my head. Other than that, I haven't heard any other versions, though it's indubitably hit material!

    Note: The 45 itself has Mint labels. The vinyl looks untouched, and the audio sounds pristine. The great picture sleeve is nearly flawless!
