Be sure to check out the terrific Holland-Dozier-Holland song/production on the B side! Have a listen to our mp3 "snippet". Note: This beautiful 45 has a drillhole on otherwise-Mint looking labels.

Besides the great A side, take a listen to the mp3 "snippet" of this one's B side... virtually all of Joe Simon's 45's are as wonderful as this. Deep gospel soul (some may call the B side "Northern Soul") at its very best! Note: This beautiful copy grades very close to Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio).

Dave Marsh was right to give this great Madonna hit such a high ranking in his list of the 1001 greatest singles ever made... it's a perfect pop confection and a gorgeous blend of 1980's dance rock and 1960's girl group rock. The B side is a previously unreleased, non-album track. Note: This beautiful 45 record has no notable flaws, grading Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio), and the picture sleeve is Near Mint with a little top-edge wear including one tiny tear.

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 with a small "72" on the A side. The vinyl (styrene) looks almost untouched, and the audio is very close to Mint.

You may wonder how Elvis Presley got categorized as Northern Soul, as on this terrific track. But take a listen to the female backing vocals, that awesome bass line, those horns and hand-claps, plus the wild drumming, and you'll hear what I mean! It's just too bad the label doesn't credit the producer or arranger of this little jewel. Also, this single wasn't included on any contemporary Presley albums... it was a non-album single. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a nearly flawless picture sleeve with an original small retail price sticker on the back. It has no notable flaws, grading Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio).

From a warehouse find, this is a new, unplayed stock copy. Here's a beautiful copy of the rarer yellow Ric-Tic label with black type. The flip side is an instrumental version. Like all of Starr's Ric-Tic recordings, this was a non-album single. Note: This 45 record has light storage wear, but it retains pristine Mint sound.

This terrific 7-inch promo was a gift to those lucky enough to buy the 1979 U.S. release of the Clash's eponymous debut album. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Epic Records factory sleeve. It has no notable flaws, grading Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio).

"I'm On Fire" is one of the very best musical moments of 1975, yet it's simply not played enough anymore. Check out the mp3 jukebox "snippet" of it! By the way, if you think the A side is great, you'll be blown away by the B side too, which by the way is a previously unreleased, non-album track. Twilley & his band were a bit of anomaly at the time, since their music is an amalgam of Rockabilly and Power Pop. Take a listen to the fade-out chorus to "I'm On Fire" sometime, and you'll definitely recognize the influence of the most popular Power Pop band of all time—The Beatles. Note: This beautiful copy comes in the original picture sleeve, with some age appropriate edge wear grading Near Mint. The record grades Near Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio). There is a small sticker stain the A side label . Note: This scan is a representative image from our archives.

After Michael Jackson's tragic, untimely death, it's been heartening to see how much he was appreciated, despite his beyond-quirky later years. And early Jackson 5 singles still amaze when one hears Michael's preternaturally precocious singing. "The Love You Save" was the group's biggest hit. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Motown Records factory sleeve. It looks Near Mint (Labels, Vinyl) and has pristine Mint sound. (This scan is a representative image from our archives.)

God, I love this song! Nothing but the best from beginning to end. This single's A side -- the hit version of the song -- is slightly edited from a 3:56 album track. This is the first issue on the blue Volt label. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Volt Records factory sleeve. It has Near Mint labels, and the vinyl looks only lightly touched. The audio is close to Mint. (This scan is a representative image from our archives; this copy does NOT have a drillhole.)
