Year: 1984
Condition: M
Last Price: $12.00. Not currently available for sale.

From a warehouse find, this is a new, unplayed stock copy, in its original Polydor factory sleeve. This appealing Techno/Disco dancer cried out for an mp3 "snippet" so you can have a listen... Enjoy! The B side is the "Dub Version" of the tune. Note: This beautiful 45 has no notable flaws, grading Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio).

Label: Sire 29565
Year: 1983
Condition: M
Last Price: $16.00. Not currently available for sale.

Absolutely essential early 1980's modern dance rock... both sides are dance classics from the group's 1983 album "Speaking in Tongues." The B side is no throwaway, either: Have a listen to the mp3 "snippet" to hear it. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a nearly flawless picture sleeve. It has pristine Mint labels and sound.

From a warehouse find, this is a new, unplayed stock copy, in its original factory sleeve. Seems strange that in the midst of the Rockabilly revival of the early 1980s this terrific number didn't do better than it did. It's a classic... irresistable! Note: This beautiful 45 record has no notable flaws, grading Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio). (This scan is a representative image from our archives.)

Dave Marsh was right-on when pinning this rock classic at #159 in his list of the 1,001 greatest singles of Rock'n'Soul. As he says in explaining his choice,

Label: Atlantic 2827

I'm sorry to note that more than 45 years after Graham Nash released this single, my country still suffers at times from "Military Madness." But then, we're far from alone in that. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Atlantic Records factory sleeve. It grades close to Mint in all respects (Labels, Vinyl, Audio). (This scan is a representative image from our archives.)

Label: MGM 13322

Here's a beautiful copy of the original MGM pressing of this swamp-rock classic. These tracks had earlier been released on the small Texas label XL, a 45 that could fetch $1,000 or more if you find a Near Mint copy! :-) Besides the well-known and -loved A side, which Dave Marsh pegs at #78 in his Top 1,001 singles list, be sure to check out the totally cool blues-rock performance on the flip. This is precisely the kind of sound that British groups like the Animals and Stones were striving for at the time and is one of the foundations of what became known as "Garage Rock." (Check out the mp3 snippet we've added to our "jukebox.") By the way, this very short (2:05!) B side wasn't included on any of Sam The Sham's albums... it was a non-album cut available only this 45. Note: This 45 record has a drillhole and comes in a vintage MGM Records factory sleeve. It has Near Mint labels with an unobtrusive "X" on the B side. The vinyl looks almost untouched, and the audio sounds pristine Mint! (This scan is a representative image from our archives.)

Label: Kapp 593
Year: 1964
Condition: M-
Price: $18.00

If you wanna hear some truly great power pop, flip this one over and check out the B side (click on the "play" button to hear the audio from our mp3 "jukebox"). A definite A+ in my book! Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Kapp Records factory sleeve. The labels have a bit of ringwear, but the vinyl looks Near Mint, and the audio is almost pristine.

Label: WB 49786
Year: 1981
Condition: M
Price: $7.00

From a warehouse find, this is a new, unplayed stock copy, in its original Warner/Reprise factory sleeve. This striking Funk rendition of the classic "Grapevine" is an edited version of a 10:45 album track. Not to be missed!

Label: Columbia 11388
Year: 1980
Condition: M-
Price: $10.00

This is one of two great, hard-to-find singles released from the Rockpile album Seconds of Pleasure. Rockpile was a band formed by Nick Lowe and Dave Edmunds. Of the two singles, this was the first, and also the only one that charted. Note: This beautiful stock copy has Mint labels and pristine audio. The vinyl (styrene) is graded Near Mint to reflect some faint storage wear.

Label: Epic 10902
Year: 1972

Besides the essential classic track on the A side, be sure to check out the fine bit of reggae on the flip! Tasty! Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Epic Records factory sleeve.
