A TREMENDOUS COMPILATION WITH A MIXTURE OF STYLES AND TEMPOS!

MOST COPIES SOLD WERE PLAYED ON OLDER AND HEAVIER EQUIPMENT OR BY DJs IN CLUBS RESULTING IN ALL SORTS OF WEAR AND DAMAGE.THIS WAS NOT A BIG SELLER IN THE UK COMPARED TO OTHER NORTHERN SOUL COMPILATION LPs AND AS SUCH WAS NOT IN PRINT FOR AS LONG AND AS SUCH IS HARDER TO FIND THAN OTHER SOUL LPs.  PLEASE SEE THE PHOTOS FOR THE TRACKS ON THIS LP PRESSED ON HIGH QUALITY 100% FLAT VINYL!  LOCATING A REALLY NICE ORIGINAL 1ST EDITION IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE AS THE MAJORITY OF COPIES WERE PLAYED OVER AND OVER AGAIN ON OLDER EQUIPMENT CAUSING MAJOR DISTORTION AND GENERAL WEAR.

LOOK AT MY FEEDBACK FOR SIMILAR RECORDS SOLD FOR TOTAL CONFIDENCE!

POSTAGE UK 1ST CLASS SIGNED FOR £4-50,EUROPE £8 AIR MAIL AND £11 REST OF THE WORLD.

Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many  collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.

Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.

The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!     

This is my honest grading!!!

Please see my listening policy below. 

I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
