THE LAURIE JAY COMBO: Song Called Soul/Just A Little Bit UK Decca 1965 F12083)
This is a HUGE and wonderful sound and as scarce as they get. A fabulous mod floor filler straight out of '65. What a tune. 'Song Called Soul' is an upbeat driving groove married to a soaring melody and the flip, "Just a Little Beat" churns along on an organ vibe that, let's say, plays 'tribute' to Green Onions. Just magnificent. This is a real find.
Those who collect the period will know this 45 is an enormous rarity and this copy is in incredible condition, proper mint minus. Of the few copies of this that made it out into the world over half a century ago - how many could have survived so flawlessly?
The vinyl is lush, jet black and shiny, free from any scruff scratches or even hairlines. The labels are proud, unfaded, and without writing rips or tears. A tiny circle of sticker residue can be detected by angling the record in light but otherwise I cannot find fault. This even comes in its original undamaged Decca Company birth bag with the catalogue number written top right in the manner of record shops of the era.
This is such a great record hammered out in a fever by musicians feeling every soulful note - as did the mod crowd who filled the floors at its playing. A truly rare and historic artefact.

There is no reserve to this impossibly hard to find disc and the start price is low. Good luck on your bidding.
