I've made the decision to sell some of my very large collection of 7", 12" and LPs.
I haven't the equipment to provide my own sound clips, so will have to rely on your own good judgement - after all, soul lovers are the world's most knowledgeable and devoted collectors.
ALL THE ITEMS I AM SELLING COME FROM OVER THIRTY YEARS OF COLLECTING.
I AM NOT A DEALER.
There will be some real gems, so make sure you keep your eyes open.
70s NORTHERN SOUL
THE CHEQUERS
"UNDECIDED LOVE (PART 1)"
b/w
"UNDECIDED LOVE (PART 2)"
(UK: Creole CR 101, 1974)
Record conditon: Excellent +++
Labels condition: Spotless
The Chequers were a UK-based reggae band, who branched out into the much more lucrative soul-disco field during the mid-70s. Although the group were known largely for their instrumentals, "Undecided Love" has the added appeal of an un-named male vocalist. The result is an excellent soul dancer, with a very catchy tune, and a neat spoken middle break. It's Philly-style rhythm, and insistent mid- to uptempo beat, meant that it appeared on a few Northern Soul playlists a little bit later, when the search for UK label releases reached it's peak. The B-side is the instrumental version.
The record is in close to mint condition.
Both labels are immaculate, and the original centre is intact.
The edges are completely chip-free.
These records have been played on both sides to verify condition, but there's a full money-back guarantee on all my sales, and I'll refund anyone who isn't totally captivated.
