My very favorite Bobbie Gentry song... an absolutely compelling picture of a girl's rise from poor white trash to the satin-sheet luxury life. Plus those horns! Those strings! Those words! That voice! This single version is slightly edited from a 4:15 album track. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Capitol Records factory sleeve. It has Mint labels and very nearly Mint vinyl and audio.

From a warehouse find, this is a new, unplayed stock copy with a drillhole, in its original factory sleeve. Credited to the Ray Charles Orchestra, this funky thang is really something to hear... as is the much-sought-after B side. Check out the mp3 "snippet"! The A side is specially edited from a 4:10 album track. Note: Aside from the drillhole, this copy is pristine Mint.

From a warehouse find, this is a new, unplayed stock copy. This terrific dancer didn't chart, but it's well worth seeking out! The rhythm section is to die for, and the solo guitar and horn parts are really special. Have a listen to the mp3 "snippet" to hear for yourself. Both tracks are specially edited from longer album cuts of 6:15 and 6:12, respectively. Note: This beautiful 45 has no notable flaws, grading Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio).

Originally released on Capitol 5476. Besides the A side at #259, the B side of this single is listed in the Marsh 1001 at No. 598: Two positions for this one truly GREAT 45 rpm record! Oddly, the B side was not included on any Beatles album. This is a new, unplayed copy of the 1994 30th anniversary release on white vinyl... pristine Mint. It features a full Stereo mix of the A side rather than the Mono original; the B side is Mono.

I finally found a beautiful original pressing of this classic Bobby Bland tune, which Dave Marsh pegs at #707 on his list of the 1,001 greatest singles of all time. This is only the second original I've had since opening the store in 2001! Have a listen to the mp3 "snippet" to understand why I'm so excited about this. :-) Note: This 45 has Mint labels and pristine sound.

Here's a beautiful copy of Ray Price's biggest hit, which sits at #421 on Dave Marsh's list of the 1,001 greatest singles. This is the first original pressing I've had in the store since opening in 2001! The audio is so good I had to make an mp3 "snippet" for you to hear... Enjoy! Amazingly, this was a non-album single. Note: This 45 record comes in a vintage Columbia Records factory sleeve. The labels grade Near Mint, with a small mark on the A side (see scan). The vinyl (styrene) looks Near Mint, and the audio sounds pristine!

Bobby Rydell's first hit is definitely the one to own... his very best. Having a great backing band helped... On these tracks, it was Georgie Young & the Rockin Bocs. By the way, "Kissin'" was actually intended to be the B side, but radio programmers saw it differently. :-) Note: This beautiful copy grades Near Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio).

This great Funky Soul dancer was a big hit in the Black/RnB market and still sounds great today! Check out the mp3 "snippet" of it. Fine flip, too. Collector Nerd Alert: The track time on the label (and album) shows 2:35, but my recording is 2:52, so that's what I'm using in the detailed info below. Note: This beautiful copy has Near Mint labels with a touch of storage wear. The vinyl (styrene) looks almost untouched, and the audio plays pristine Mint.

From a warehouse find, this is a new, unplayed stock copy, in its original RSO factory sleeve. Credited to "Eric Clapton And His Band." Note: This beautiful 45 has a little "bubbling" on the labels, which separately grade Near Mint. The vinyl (styrene) looks untouched, and the audio sounds pristine!

This amazing track was not previously released on 45 rpm, except for a jukebox EP release from 1972. This cover of an Eddie Floyd tune is vintage Al Green and stands up next to his greatest hits. It was included on the "Let's Stay Together" LP. This reissue now appears to be back in print... get a Mint copy while they last.
