Description



Billy "Country Boy" Young, When I Wanna Get Off b/w same title but different lyrics/treatment, on S-Cee 002.  Billy Young is of course a very familiar soul singer, as he cut loads of great records for various labels, but I've never seen nor heard of this one (and Google brings up virtually nothing about it).  It's a '70s soul song that morphs--twice--into cool, long breaks, and was apparently a promotional record for Smirnoff, the liquor people (the flip has some pretty funny lyrics about the virtues of the brand).  Record has full shine, weak VG with light scratches, plays well.  Apparently very rare.  "Disco music sure is boss." 

I am currently selling a nice batch of rare Northern and R&B 45s, so check my other auctions.

Grading

MINT-  Perfect or virtually perfect.  

VG+ Light marks, full shine, great looking record

VG  Still fairly shiny but clearly a used record, light scratches, will play well but with some surface noise

VG-  Played or used more heavily, lots of scratches, more pronounced surface noise, but still plays through okay

G  Rough record
