As I add 45s to our inventory, I pick select 45s to highlight with mp3 "snippets" so you can hear the music yourself. I only record "snippets" of tunes I particularly like, ones I think have been under-played and under-appreciated, or ones that are so rare and wonderful I'll never hear them otherwise. For myself, I keep an iTunes playlist of these "snippets," and that playlist is one I listen to most often. These pages chronicle the mp3 "snippets" I've added to our online "jukebox" in reverse chronological order. You can browse the pages to see what was added and when. Click on the blue "Play" button to play the snippet, or click on a song's title to load the page. Many of these 45 records are still for sale, though just as many have been sold. I hope you enjoy perusing these pages as much as I have enjoyed putting them together!

Lyn Christopher
1973, Paramount 0238
Genre: Northern Soul, Philly Style
Here's a beautiful promo copy of this rare Soul single with an A side that's just to-die-for! Have a listen to the mp3 "snippet" in our "online jukebox" (click the blue play button!). Christopher wasn't really a Soul singer, but this song and production put her squarely in that genre.
Rummage through hundreds of original-issue 45's for $6.00 or less!

I Like To Do It/ Come On In by KC & The Sunshine Band
These virtual "boxes" are for you folks who only like new, unplayed or pristine Mint 45s.
