Rare and awesomely good Florida Northern soul from 1968.
I had so many inquiries about this, after playing it at some of the the Hitsville niters a few years back.
This was the second-to-the-last release on Paris Tower, and probably the rarest, with only two known
copies in collections. It's not even listed in the Manship books... yet.
Now for the bad news: The previous owner didn't keep this in a sleeve, so it has scratches.
When I first got this copy several years back, the needle stuck in one spot.
I've been working on it, and now it plays all the way through on my turntable, without any skips or needle holds.
I'm not sure if you'll have the same luck, but my hope is that the hard work on smoothing it over will pay off.
With that said, this record is being sold AS IS.
Buy more than one record, and save on postage.
I can send two 45s overseas for the same price as one. And speaking of that price --
To my overseas customers: The U.S. postal service raised their rates on
Monday, 28 January 2013. I want you to know that the higher shipping charges
are THEIR fault, not mine. Thanks to this substantial rate hike, the days of
shipping a well-protected 45 for just 7 or 8 U.S. dollars are over.
The higher rates affect ALL packages sent to locations outside the United States, and all
buyers and sellers are affected.
Another important note: More and more packages sent overseas are getting hung up
in customs. It is not unusual for some packages to take 6-8 weeks to reach buyers,
even though they're being sent out within a day or two of payment.
Germany, France, Italy, Greece, and Australia have all reported longer than
usual customs delays. Please be patient -- I mail packages out very quickly,
but the rest is up to the postal service!
