Northern Soul 7" 1960s/1970s Vinyl Singles Collection/Job Lot 31.

You are bidding on a listing of 8 Singles 'PLAYGRADING' between VG+ and EX+. However this is on a modern Stereo Cartridge which is not perfect for Mono and older singles but I have been honest in grading as my ears heard them). All with sleeves, occasionally company sleeves.

**I HAVE ALSO ADDED 6 FREE CRACKLY FILLERS AS A FREEBIE - SEE BELOW** (If you dont want them let me know before postage).

I ALWAYS Playgrade my vinyl because with old vinyl they can look mint but sound crackly whilst they can look VG but play a higher grade. My gradings are per Rare Record Collector scale but I'm aware that my ears are not yours so there may be slight differences of opinion (usually a plus or minus grade).

'A' side only playgraded.

Some fabulous Rare Record Labels included in this lot: Avin, Spark, Roxbury, Paula etc.

These are again more of my duplicate copies (I buy 'upgrade' versions in my never ending quest for perfection, I joblot the duplicates). Please remember these are between 40 and 60 years old so they will not suddenly become anything more than you would expect for their age. They may have the occasional scuff, crackle, sticker/residue or pen but I will point out anything Major. Low starting auction price of £7.99 could make them just under £1 each. 

Many of these singles are on Ebay as individual items priced between £4 and ?? (well, ridiculous prices).

Full Listing:

01. Andre Williams & His Orch 'Rib Tip's' US Avin 1967 EX- *

02. Jim Gilstrap 'House Of Strangers' US Roxbury 1975 PROMO EX+

03. Paul Humphrey 'Cochise' US ABC 1974 EX+

04. The Playthings 'Surrounded By A Ray Of Sunshine' Casino Classics 1974 EX+

05. Miki Honeycutt 'Sugar Coated Words' US Paula 1976 EX

06. Jimmy James And The Vagabonds 'Now Is The Time' Pye 1976 EX+

07. Love Unlimited 'Love's Theme' US 20th Century 1973 VG+

08. The Peppers 'Pepper Box' Spark 1973 VG+ (scuff at start + wol)

* There is some minor staining on the Andre Williams single label 'A' side (see pics). This has no effect on the sound of this superb rare record).

**PLEASE DONT Give me Negative Feedback on the quality of the extras below. They are FREEBIES as a bonus. (See Picture 9 for freebies).

A Playable but crackly Job Lot of 1960s and 1970s Soul / Northern / R&B Fillers ranging between Fair and Very Good minus. They ALL have background noise to varying degrees and they pop and click to varying degrees but all play without skips and are some fabulous tunes.

And yes thats the ultimate Sam And Dave US Blue Label Stax 'Soul Man' but its a skating rink condition wise BUT like the rest it plays loud and all the way through despite the constant crackle.

Full List (Freebie section):

1. Sam And Dave 'Soul Man' US Stax (Blue label) 1967
2. Aretha Franklin 'Spanish Harlem' US Atlantic 1971
3. Thelma Houston 'No Ones Gonna Be A Fool Forever' MoWest 1972
4. Wilson Pickett 'Funky Broadway' US Atlantic 1967
5. Dionne Warwick 'Walk On By' Pye International 1964
6. Otis Redding 'The Happy Song (dum dum)' US Stax (Blue Label) 1968

Why am I passing on records in this condition?
Simply because they're classics of soul and it would be sacrilege to not pass them on. I wouldn't neccesarily play them on a £200 stylus but any old turntable played loud will do them justice.**

I will combine postage for Job Lots. My additional postage is £2 per extra lot

Please don't ask for a 'buy it now' price as refusal often offends.

IMPORTANT** I DO NOT POST INTERNATIONALLY EXCEPT WHERE AGREED IN ADVANCE.

MY ACCOUNT IS SET TO REJECT BIDDERS WITH LESS THAN 5 POSITIVE FEEDBACKS OR STRIKES ON THEIR ACCOUNTS!

**THE (BORING BUT) LEGAL BIT ON POSTAGE** (Please read and don't bid unless you are happy. Bidding on my listings is your acceptance of postage conditions). Sadly I have to put this in because of a few bad individuals/scammers.

Ebay states any winning bid over £20 Should to be sent registered/tracked and/or insured (as Post Office 'signed for' covers loss up to £20) so if over £20 (and if you want it sent this way) please inform me after the auction finishes and wait for adjusted invoice otherwise postage is 2nd class signed for as standard. This is your decision for added peace of mind but also added cost.

ALL my record listings singular or joblot are posted 'SIGNED FOR'. This guarantees you will see the condition they arrive in when delivered by the Post Office and the parcels can be tracked.

It is rare that packages sustain damage in transit as I pack well and mark with fragile tape however I cannot take responsibility for uninsured packages however I will refund individual postally damaged items as long as the buyer also follows Ebays guidance on this (below) (Really its just photo evidence then no quibbles from me - you wont lose out):
