Classic 45's Jukebox

Last Price: $9.00. Not currently available for sale.

From a warehouse find, this is a new, unplayed stock copy, in its original factory sleeve. An absolutely essential post-disco classic from 1983. If this don't get you movin', you're dead! Flip is a shorter (3:48) 'Dub' version of the song. The label notes that all instruments are played by Rob Kilgore. Collector Nerd Alert: The album version is shorter, at 3:34, but the album also has a "Remix" version at 6:03... I suspect this is a specially edited version of that. Note: This beautiful 45 has no notable flaws, grading Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio).

This release proves that Robertson could still write a damn great song, play a mean guitar, and sing an angry tale long after he parted ways with Levon Helm and the rest of the legendary rock group known as The Band. It's also a grim reminder of how scary the world was in 1987, before the U.S. and the Soviet Union finally ended the cold war. If you missed this terrific single the first time around, be sure to check it out now... we've put a snippet into the Classic 45's Jukebox for you. Note: This beautiful copy has light storage wear that lowers the Label grade to Near Mint. The wax and audio are pristine. The picture sleeve grades Near Mint.

From a warehouse find, this is a new, unplayed stock copy with a drillhole, in the original factory sleeve. This is one of the duo's great, relatively unsung, recordings... They sure had incredible synergy while it lasted.

Here's a beautiful copy of this essential early Soul classic, which Dave Marsh pegs at #758 in his Top 1,001 Singles list. The B side, by the way, is a non-album cut. Note: This 45 comes in a vintage Brunswick Records factory sleeve. It grades very close to Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio).

Here's a beautiful Mint copy of one my two favorite Linda Ronstadt recordings -- the other being "Long Long Time." This single is frustratingly hard to find -- even on reissue -- and this is one of the nicest I've offered for sale since opening shop in 2001. Note: This beautiful 45 record comes in a vintage Capitol Records factory sleeve. It has no notable flaws, grading Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio).

Besides the hit side, be sure to also check out the catchy, harder-rocking B side, which is why I rate this single 2 stars! Have a listen to the mp3 "snippet" which I finally got around to posting. Note: This beautiful copy comes with a vintage Bell Records sleeve. It has Near Mint labels, and the vinyl (styrene) looks Near Mint as well. The audio sounds pristine Mint!

Paul Simon was one of the first non-Reggae artists to flirt with the reggae sound, and this is a damned good experiment, if you ask me! I'm always shocked to hear the incredibly powerful Stereo mix that they pressed these 7-inch releases with: Loud is simply not sufficient to describe the enormity of what's in these little grooves. The mp3 snippet I've provided doesn't do it justice, but hopefully you'll get the idea. :-) Collector nerd alert: This is the original release on the red/orange Columbia label. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Columbia Records factory sleeve. It has very nearly Mint labels, and the audio sounds pristine Mint!

Another terrific Muscle Shoals, Fame-studio production... not to be missed! Note: This like-new copy has a drillhole on otherwise Mint labels. The vinyl looks untouched, and it has pristine Mint sound. (This scan is a representative image from our archives.)

Wow! That Muscle Shoals studio could sure churn out the terrific soul in the late 1960's. Both sides are essential to a good Soul collection. ?Note: This copy has a drillhole and comes in a vintage Chess/Checker/Cadet Records factory sleeve. The A side audio is pristine Mint, but the B side has some very light surface noise that's occasionally audible.
