    Bobby Powell - Peace Begins Within

    Pretty sure this is a great two-sider, though I can't remember what the flip is...


    'question(s)' - and, yep, both sides are nice

    A couple of favorites:
    Jerry Washington "Baby don't leave me"
    Johnny Otis Show "Watts Breakaway"
    The Variations "Saying it, Doing it"

    Good thread, by the way.

    thats cheap innit? The NON had copies at 25 a pop a few weeks ago too. very affordable for such a hard tune IMO.

    I wish I had picked my copy up for that cheap.

    Jean Knight Mr Big Stuff.

    Lps by; the Meters on Josie, early Kool & Gang, Syl Johnson on Twilight, James Brown, tend to be expensive. But the 45s from those lps tend to be inexpensive and often the best cuts.

    Meters 45s on Josie are the ultimate "Essential funk singles that are affordable".
