ULTRA RARE NORTHERN SOUL/FUNK/DISCO FUSION 7" 33RPM FOR SALE

QUALITY CONTROL FACTOR - Hot Shots / Soft Touch  1983  (GROUP EFFORT RECORDS   STEREO  407024)  Original ULTRA RARE Store Stock PRESSING!!  Store Stock MINT Condition with a couple faint handling marks!!  I'm not even 100% sure this was ever officially released.  GROUP EFFORT Studios is located just 6 miles south of Cincinnati, Ohio in Erlanger, Kentucky.  The studios still exist and is documented on the internet.  Local recording artists such as GUIDED BY VOICES, THE AFGHAN WHIGS, BLACKLIGHT BRAILLE and others have record there.  What is not known is the group, "Quality Control Factor".  They're not cataloged anywhere.  I checked the studios, Discogs, Popsike, Collectorsfrenzy, Ebay, Google, ...... nothing ..... zero information.  No sound clips on Youtube .... or, anywhere.  Except HERE!!!  

Unknown until now is this Fusion-Jazz-Disco band from around the local Cincinnati area featuring (maybe?, if the song credits are the band members) Daryl Elliott, R. Menefield, B. Menefield and F. Grace, Jr.

The killer side, lasting over 6 minutes!!, starts out with a killer slow funk bass -> into slow fusion Jazz -> into a Fusion of madness Disco bouncing fun.  I record 3 minutes from the actual record I am listing, the only one I have, have seen and have heard of.

Bid Early, or it will be gone .......

MY GRADING SYSTEM IS :

I work on the 10 point grading system (see below).

There will be a blue number representing shape besides the listing/Year in blue.   (Ex: 1967  7/8)

All gradings are visual and I only play records in special situations ......

10 : MINT (still sealed (LP's only) or unplayed (shown by zero spindle wear).  PERFECT CONDITION!!!)

9 : NEAR MINT/M- (opened LP or slight handling wear.  ALMOST PERFECT BUT NOT...)

8 : EX++ (Slight wear(ring/seam), slight paper scuffs that do not effect play and little to no spindle wear)

7 : VG++  (slight needle wear/slight scuffs/slight scratches/slight cover discoloration and or seam wear).  Small seam splits starting.  Some slight ticks that don't take away from the listening experience.

6 : VG+ (slight needle wear/mild scuffs/ mild scratches/ mild cover discoloration and or seam wear).

Plays with slightly noticeable ticks but still enjoyable!!)

5 : VG (Needle wear/scuffs/scratches/cover discoloration and or seam wear).

Plays with noticeable ticks but OK!!)

4 : G (OK LP.  Listed as a play copy until a clean one comes)

3 : FAIR (Seam splits/heavy writing on cover/scratched and scuffed ... BUT STILL PLAYS but sound like bacon sizzling)

2 : POOR -> Really trashed (Only listed if it is super super rare and can fill a void.  $500 record or more.  Could be cracked but plays.)

1 : Hurts to look at (Should be thrown away or given to Goodwill.  "Used for target practice"/Original owner should be ashamed!!).

These records will not be sold.  They will be used for landfill.
