COMMENT :  The Parliaments 

"Getting Ready For The Summer" b /w "This Is My Rainy Day"
an original Northern Soul Holy Grail
one of the rarest of all records by the Parliaments which is one of the groups featuring the legendary Archie Himons aka Little Archie of Huntington, West Virginia who also was in Magnificent 7 and recorded for Dial andFern and Lemco in addition to Cabell Records. 
"This Is My Rainy Day" is a Northern Soul classic!!!
there are very few known copies of this single. story has it the owner of the Cabell Records label wasn't thrilled about this release, and most of them wound up destroyed - but at least two known copies were out there before we found this copy (the other two copies are up on auction sites have  sold for very large sums between around $4400 and $6400).
This is a  copy of this super rare NORTHERN SOUL record by the HUNTINGTON, WEST VIRGINIA group 
the PARLIAMENTS  plays and SOUNDS GOOD with no skips or repeats but plays with crackle and pops. labels are clean but with ring wear (no writing, stickers or markings)
and record has MUSIC CITY stampers in the dead wax ,there are not many copies of this 45 known to exist today.
