THE HALOS

COME SOFTLY TO ME / HE'S JUST TOO MUCH!

CONGRESS CG-262

PROMO

1966


Click and listen to our soundclip / mp3 of both sides

 Top double-sider by a New York girl group, previously known as The Angels. Vivacious, blue-eyed northern soul with infectious doo wop harmony and driving R&B orchestra. Hammering tempo, crashing rhythms and quite intense. The Aside is also superb, more pop orientated but soulful with a sophisticated, wall of sound vibe. Great for DJs! Disc cut loud with big production sound. Difficult to find the desirable promo in nice condition, like our copy :)



Our record grading: SEALED / M- / VG++ / VG+ / VG
RECORD - shiny, strong VG++ with a couple of faint pops - soft ticks / light scuff line to Bside / some other faint hairlines elsewhere from storage / disc cut loud with big production sound / natural light background surface noises due to the actual pressing

SLEEVE - not graded - original generic factory sleeve has general wear / item from the archive of an important record label who had offices in Milan
LABEL - 'x' notation cum pen scribble to one side / natural age discoloration / some faint dirt marks from storage



After a 2 year gap, Pourquoi Moi Vintage is back :)

For the moment, our auctions will focus on original 7inch delights from '50s doo wop to '80s synth pop so expect to see:

northern soul / popcorn / new breed / exotica / funk / rare groove / ost / bossa / disco / jazz / latin / french pop / psych / garage / sunshine pop / rock / prog / aor / easyglide / rockabilly / oldies / rock 'n' roll / surf / blues / folk / ethnic / reggae / dub / experimental / ambient / dance / electronic / punk / wave / indie / power pop / metal / glam / weird / outsider / spoken word / private press / novelty
