Bidders outside the US, take note: We DO NOT devalue items for the sake of avoiding customs fees for your respective countries. This fee should be taken into consideration BEFORE you bid on our items!

Up for bids this time is a rare soul 45 by Pep Brown.  "(It's All About) Money" b/w "That Leaving Look" on the Walden Records label, label # PB-102.  This 45 does not show up on auctions very often, and is much desired by the collectors of the "Northern Soul" kind of genre.  We just happen to have a copy available for bids.  The "Money" side is in VG+ condition, and though it plays like a VG++, I have to knock it down a grade as there is a very light mark at the 3 o'clock position.  Yes, when I very lightly dragged my fingernail across it (don't worry, when I do this, I have yet to add any marks), it did catch a little.  However, this is one of the few cases where I will give it a listen to make sure the marks found do not cause any audio irregularities.  This did not cause any skips or pops to the sound.  Due to it's visibility though, it did get the lower grade.  The flip side, "That Leaving Look" however does have more marks on it, especially prevalent at the 8 & 9 o'clock positions.  These marks do have a light effect on the sound quality, a few "pops" and "crackles".  Nothing major, but definitely enough to mention.  This side is VG at best.
I realize this is not exactly a "glowing review", but considering the scarcity of this 45, I thought it best to give a fair review.
