From a warehouse find, this is a new, unplayed stock copy, in its original factory sleeve. This great track was in the vanguard of the newly emerging Hip-Hop and Techno/Synth Pop sound of the early 1980s. Both sides are dramatically edited versions of the respective 8:33 and 10:17 album tracks.

From a warehouse find, this is a new, unplayed stock copy, in its original factory sleeve. Another terrific set of uptempo soul tunes from one of the underrated masters of soul... these are both so good it's hard to understand how radio decided which was the A side! Speaking of the A side, it's a non-album track.

This is a new, unplayed promo copy from the Louise Neal 45 Collection. Both of these delightful dance tracks are well worth seeking out, but I'm among those who find "Strong Love" on the flip the better find (have a listen to the mp3 snippet!). Note: This beautiful promo has nearly pristine Mint labels... The A label has a partial promo stamp (not shown in the scan, which is a representative image from our archives). The vinyl looks untouched, grading Mint. Although the vinyl has some very light native surface noise, it really isn't audible once the music starts (have a listen to the snippet), so we're grading the audio Mint.

This is a new, unplayed stock copy from the Louise Neal 45 Collection. Two dynamite Northern Soul dancers in a Motown style. Note: This beautiful copy has a pristine A label and nearly pristine B label. The vinyl looks untouched but has a tiny, no-impact edge warp from storage. The audio itself is pristine Mint.

Condition: EX+
Last Price: $300.00. Not currently available for sale.

Here's a nice promo copy of this very rare 1965 Northern Soul single, with a sound that'll fill dance floors without question! Note: This copy comes in a vintage Decca Records factory sleeve. It has Near Mint labels with a touch of ringwear (see scan). The vinyl grades EX, reflecting some light scuffs and tiny scratches. The audio grades a strong EX, as the music mostly overwhelms some light surface noise occasionally audible. Have a listen to the mp3 "snippet" to hear what I mean.

From a warehouse find, this is a new, unplayed stock copy, in its original factory sleeve. 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 #49" rather than "Funk No. 49." Though not mentioned on the label, the Mono-mix 45 has a superior, edited version of a 3:54 album track. Note: These beautiful copies may have light storage wear on the vinyl, which is why the Vinyl grade is Near Mint rather than Mint like the labels and audio.

This is a new, unplayed stock copy from the Louise Neal 45 Collection. I was so taken with this single's A side that I had to rush-release an mp3 "snippet" for you to hear... Enjoy! The flip is another strong number. Note: This beautiful 45 has Near Mint labels, reflecting a couple of "x" marks on the A side (see scan). The vinyl looks almost untouched, and the audio sounds pristine Mint.

From a warehouse find, this is a new, unplayed stock copy. Here's a beautiful copy of this rare 1975 Northern Soul dancer ... have a listen to the mp3 "snippet" to hear why it's in such demand.

Condition: M-
Price: $28.00

This is a new, unplayed promo copy from the Louise Neal 45 Collection. Produced by Bobby Robinson, this single's A side is a Funky Soul dancer well worth seeking out. The flip is a fine Deep Soul number. Note: This beautiful copy has pristine Mint labels. The vinyl and audio grade close to Mint.

This is a new, unplayed stock copy from the Louise Neal 45 Collection. Here's an extremely rare Northern Soul single that can command eye-popping values when it's offered. Both sides are dynamite dancers, but frankly I put my money on the B side with its powerful rhythm section. Note: This copy has beautiful Mint labels and untouched-looking vinyl. The audio grades Near Mint, reflecting very light native surface noise audible mainly early on the A side. (Have a listen to the mp3 "snippets" to hear what I mean.)
