I have been after this 45 forever...it is like it doesnt exist..but you are in Detroit, so I guess if it is going to be found anywhere...how raer is it up your way?
My top 5
Kim Melvin "Sweet Little Thing" TELECASTER
Richard Berry and the Pharoahs "Have Love Will Travel" FLIP
Yvonne Fair "Say yeah yeah" DADE
Big Maybelle "Ive Got a Feeling" Okeh
Mighty Joe Young "Suffering Soul" WEBCOR
it pretty much doesn't exist here either - my copy is VG- at best but plays loud and well for DJ purposes - it's real hard-hitting!
he was a drummer for Nathaniel Mayer - also with the Nite Sounds - who have their own record thats kinda boring & who also back up Melvin Davis on 'I Won't Be Your Fool' which is awesome
Opensouls - You Got Me Thinking
Rimshots - Dance Girl
Bad News Band - Rock It Down
Charles Mintz - Give A Man A Break
