Previously unreleased, and totally unknown until a battered acetate surfaced in 1999, Honey went through more reconstructive surgery than Michael Jackson before its pristine release in 2000.

Originally recorded as the A side to the magnificent Sliced tomatoes in 1965, it features the same distinctive guitar licks, but listen out for the strings and tight harmonies too. Their other northern monster, Carlena, is on the flip.

The release of this gorgeous song has been Hayley’s proudest moment since the label began. Beautiful vocals, heartrending lyrics and a string arrangement by the great Marvin Gaye himself make this the epitome of a soul record.

Lorretta’s take on “Neither one of us” on the flip makes this a great double header.

John Manship described this record as the best instrumental he’d heard since “Exus Trek” and who are we to disagree! Released with the artist and title credits it carried on the tape box when first discovered.

It actually turns out to be the backing track for Jimmy Ruffin’s previously unreleased barnstormer “Shake hands with a dreamer”. “Our finest hour” is pretty good too.

Although not usually known for his ballads, J.J. can cut it with the best of them, as this mean and moody little pleader clearly shows.

Originally recorded in 1975, the song has remained unknown and unreleased until now. His in demander “Think I got a good chance” completes the pairing.

What a lovely pair! Jimmy’s 70s re working of the Tony Clarke classic is masterful. One listen and we guarantee you’ll be hooked.

Equally entrancing is a previously unknown gem from one of Detroit’s finest singer/ songwriters. Great soul value.

Hayley is proud to bring you a brilliantly up dated version of the 1963 Stevie Wonder in demander.

Recorded in 1974, it was produced by famed Veep artist Cindy Scott, and features Dathan’s distinctive vocals on the up tempo A side and the smooth groove of the flip, “Mysterious desire

Charles Brimmer’s smoothy, groovy version of the Al Wilson classic was only previously available as a one sided, white label promo.

This release features the instrumental version by The Love ‘N’ Comfort Orchestra on the flip.

Lyn Varnado’s recording of Ashford and Simpson’s “Ain’t that something” was also only previously available as a promo single.

This storming dancer has been burning up dance floors for several years, and finally sees the light as a legitimate release, backed with her other monster, “Wash and wear love” on the flip.

Many rate this gem as one of THE most soulful records ever made. “These memories” was recorded at United Sound studios in Detroit, and sees its first official release in UK.

The flip, “La La” was made at the Stax studios in Memphis, and combines to make this a truly spectacular Hayley double sider.

Only previously available as a one off Monarch test pressing, this double sided gem is now available to everyone.

Although this is currently massive on the Modern scene, it is destined to be just as popular in Northern rooms.

Hayley does it again with two more previously unreleased tracks from the late, great Emanuel Laskey. "...Hall of fame" and "Different kind of different" were recorded in Los Angeles in 1978 with two of his long time friends, Marvin Gaye and Mel Bolton.

Written and produced by the trio, the single features an uptempo song squarely aimed at the dancefloor paired with the more mellow "Different kind of different" - both clearly showcase Emanuel's great voice.
