This is a beautiful original stock copy from the collection. Even though Kev Roberts includes this powerful single at #7 in an addendum to his original list of the top 500 Northern Soul 45s, it's hard to call this recording Northern Soul. It's definitely more of an RnB rocker... but there's no denying its rhythmic appeal, both on and off the dance floor. In case you were wondering... Yes, this is an original 1961 pressing (nothing in the Louise Neal collection is newer than about 1970), with (here, let me get my magnifying glass out...) the infamous signature "Sheldon" etched into the trail-off wax. Note: This is a copy Neal may have actually played, but not more than a few times I would guess. The labels are Near Mint — nearly flawless! The vinyl exhibits some storage wear and a few light scuffs, grading a strong EX. Miraculously, even though the trail-in vinyl has light surface noise, the audio on this single is strong, clear, and undistorted, with no surface noise or other imperfections of note during the entire track. Truly, pristine Mint audio! This single was sold through the Louise Neal Auctions page, from a minimum bid of $700. Don't miss out on the hundreds of incredible Northern Soul, Deep Soul, RnB, and Funky Soul 45 record offerings — most new and unplayed promotional releases — still to come from the very special Louise Neal 45 Collection. And that only covers the extra-special singles we decide to auction. The Louise Neal collection contains thousands of new, unplayed Soul, Rock, and RnB 45s priced below $50, which we'll be adding to the store over time at set sale.
