Notes

Various Artists - Singles Selection No. 3 (Rare Grooves 'n' Stuff) 24-bit/96kHz

Soul, Northern Soul, Funk, Rock | Various 45RPM UK & US stereo & mono singles

Picking up more or less where number 2 ended, this selection journeys through the excesses of the early seventies and beyond. Perfect for a warm summer's evening (or even a cold winter’s night!). I do hope you enjoy it, I certainly did; both now and then!

As usual, the sound quality varies but, overall, this is the best sounding singles compilation I have produced thus far.
