Today I sold the above 45 by Bernard Wright for $11 on my Discogs store. I found this 45 in Cincinnati during the holidays at an antique store. There was a small stack of 1980s R&B picture sleeve 45s for $1 each and I grabbed them all. I was surprised to see this 45 fetching … Continue reading Who Do You Love
I recently found this 45 in my collection. At first I thought it was released by Pepe Rivera and couldn’t find much information on it but then I realized the band is actually called Nombres (also Los Nombres) and this 45 features Pepe Rivera. The 45 was released in the mid-1970s on Lorain Sounds, a … Continue reading Full of Love
I’m not a music supervisor, but if I was, I would try to find a place in a movie for this song. Released in 1958 on J&S Records, this is the B-Side for Johnnie & Joe, an R&B duo who had a few hits to their name before this release. I found a copy of … Continue reading You’re In Love With Someone Else
I’ve been in a Bill Withers rabbit hole since finding two of his 45s in the pile of 1,000 I bought over the holidays. Below is the wonderful hit, Ain’t No Sunshine, which I’m very pleased to own a copy of now. I was listening to Bill’s album, Just As I Am, and noticed the … Continue reading Let It Be

I thought there might be a chance it was a rare soul gem so I looked it up and noticed Dorothy … Continue reading Let Your Feet Down Easy
Yesterday I organized the 1,000 45s I bought alphabetically. It took a couple of hours but once I got it started, it went pretty fast. Most the 45s are going to need at least two cleanings as they have some surface noise. The cleaning is what is probably going to take the most time. So … Continue reading Funky Nassau
Happy new year. I’m celebrating by going through these 9 boxes of 45s I bought yesterday for $50. A lady listed these on Facebook market and I drove out to her house to look through and was happy to see they weren’t all country or classical 45s. They were also in fairly good condition. I … Continue reading One Thousand 45s…
At the record show this weekend I bought two crates full of 45s from a friend who just wanted to unload them. I paid $20 for over 400 singles and two crates. I figured even if the 45s were junk, the crates were perfect for storing my LPs at home. Who knows, maybe I’ll find … Continue reading Why Can’t We Live Together
