Description BILLY ARNELL AND THE SPARKLES Vinyl 45 RPM Record "Tough Girl" b/w "Tough Girl (Instrumental)" Holly Records (1001) - Sold With No Reserves! - As I continue on my trek towards old fartdom, I'll be listing a lot of my way cool LPs, CDs and music-related memorabilia on eBay in the coming months, so be sure to check back every once in a while, won't you? Issued way back in the day by the Holly Record label out of Newark, New Jersey this super rare R&B soul stomper is the real deal!  An original pressing and not some re-issue that came out last year.  This 45 is one of the pride and joys of my collection, and I’m reluctantly giving it up.  Good luck ever finding another anytime soon! The record is number 1001.  The dead wax on Side A reads “H1001-A”. Further along it has what looks like a hand-etched “E R”.  The B Side deadwax reads “H1001-B”.  Further along it has a hand-etched “E R” and also a hand-etched stacked “L W”.   It's in good condition - it does have scuffs and scratches but plays through.  Labels are good as well w/ general age wear.  Please click on the 2 videos below to play the actual record you're buying, both A and B sides (you will have to turn up the volume on your computer as my little video camera ain't the greatest!). I’ve included several large images below for your grading needs. This'll surely make a great addition to any Northern Soul or rhythm & blues or record collection!  NOTE TO OVERSEAS BUYERS:  This package is being shipped via USPS PRIORITY MAIL to you WITH INSURANCE as well as FULL CUSTOMS VALUE DECLARED.  If you have a problem with this, please use a Paypal verified-address US address to ship it to upon check-out.  Dig?   As with many of our Bay items, this lot is sold with no reserves!  If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
