Titanic - Sing Fool Sing / Sultana (7")
CBS 5365, 1970 France All about the flipside, Sultana, a brilliant progish disco tune that has a very appealing hypnotic feel to it. Nice drums on here as well. French press in thick paper cover and clean vinyl. Rare in this condition.

Jay Dee - Strange Funky Games And Things (7")
WB 16 395 (N), 1974 Germany Barry White produced masterpiece with fat breakbeat intro. He passed the track to Love Unlimited a few years later but I still find this version the better of the two.

Sweet Sensation - Mr. Cool (7")
Pye P.1003, 1975 Germany Killer rare groove dancer and their only really really good cut. The 45 rarely shows and first time we've scored the Pye Records picture sleeve.

Chambers Brothers - Boogie Children (7")
Columbia 4-45837 , 1973 United States Love the downbeat funk on this 45 by the Chambers Brothers. Pretty sure it does not appear on any of their albums. You Make The Magic on the flipside. Pen marks on label, vinyl is clean.

The Bumpers - Dance The Bump (7")
Roulette R 7184, 1976 United States Excellent and in-demand dancer with lots of synth. Great disco funk on both sides. Just how many quality dancefloor tunes where released as Roulette 45s...

Yambu - Sunny / Caballo (7")
Montuno MG-8003, 1975 United States Better version than the original?! Certainly is a great take of the Bobby Hebb classic and one essential 45 for any serious latin collector. Caballo on the flipside. US original with some light marks.

Ohio Players - Funky Worm / Paint Me (7")
Westbound W 214, 1975 United States Back in stock! Raw funk with drum break, organ loops and guitar picks. No wonder this is one of the most sampled records in old school Hip Hop. Groove wear to the less interesting Paint Me side, Funky Worm plays VG+ ...

Caldera - Sky Islands (LP)
Capitol ST-11658 , 1977 United States Illest Dusty Fingers jazz fusion breakbeat all over this Capitol release. Everything on here is worth a listen but the title track Sky Island is worth the money alone any day. Clean wax, cover weak EX with little ring...

Ike And Tina Turner - The Great Album (LP)
Disques Festival 148, 197? France Nice double slap with heavy soul dancers in Too Hot To Hold, Shake You Tail Feather and I Better Get Ta Steppin. Light scuffing and hairlines but all superficial. Cover is strong EX.

Ike & Tina Turner - Super Original Session (LP)
Disques Festival 169, 197? France If you want all the hardest hitting Ike Turner grooves off his mega rare A Black Man's Soul and Funky Mule albums without paying top dollars this is a perfect pick. Funk breaks galore with Philly Dog, Funky Mule, Ghet...

The Event - Scratchin My Head (7")
Metronome M25007, 196? Germany Brilliant organ burner that bears strong resemblance with early Alan Hawkshaw recordings and could be a Mohawks cracker. German only single release. Great, rare and untapped mod soul dancer.

Bull & The Matadors - The Funky Judge (7")
Toddlin' Town TT 108, 1968 United States Heavy hitting funk material by the Illinois five piece unit. Crisply clean US original with same track on both sides.

|
Clarence Reid - Funky Party (7")
Alston A-4621, 1974 United States Soulful funk that will surely cause moving and grooving on the floor when played out. Not entirely sure but believe this is a non album release. Winter Man on the flip is a great mid tempo vocal tune. US original with...

Stairsteps - O-O-H Child (7")
Buddah 2011 018, 1970 Germany Sweet soul track that is very hard not to like. Used on and off in Hip Hop among others by De La Soul and on early Tupac material. Rare German picture sleeve issue with tiny rip at bottom left corner.

Dr. John - Right Place Wrong Time (7")
Atlantic ATL 10291, 1973 Germany Essential breakbeat material with drums sampled notoriously. Mega rare picture sleeve issue. Decent VG+ copy with visual wear that looks about VG but plays great, check soundclip.

Barrett Strong - Stand Up And Cheer.. (7")
Epic EPC 1778, 1973 Netherlands Raw funk material with killer instrumental on the flipside. The US press is rare enough but this flashy Barret Strong preaherman picture sleeve is rarely for sale. Nice VG+ copy, only real flaw is the stamp on front c...

Quick Brown Fox - Workin' On My Thing (7")
Roulette DV 14933, 1969 Germany You can not go wrong with this baby, both sides are top drawer southern soul penned by the mighty Alan Toussaint. Strongest VG++ grade, plays a solid EX.

Syl Johnson - I'm Yours (7")
Hi 45-2260, 1974 United States That intro sound remarkably close to his Sock It To Me but that is all fine with me. Willie Mitchell at the knobs here for Hi Records. Clean EX copy with faint pen mark on label.

Andrew L. Webber - Jesus Christ Superstar (LP)
MCA MAPS 6847, 1973 Italy Who would think you would find funky stuff on an Andrew Lloyd Webber album but thats what makes diggin so fascinating. The funk sneaks its way in anywhere and everywhere. Italian pressing in solid EX conditon, tiny st...
