The Snake/ Getting Ready For Tomorrow

This Johnny Rivers-produced track wasn't a big hit on the U.S. Pop or RnB charts, but it was a huge hit in the U.K. Northern Soul scene — huge enough to earn Al Wilson a place high on Kev Roberts' list of the 500 greatest Northern Soul singles — all the way at #4, in fact! Note: This copy grades Near Mint in all respects. The vinyl has very light scuffing near the outer edges mainly. The audio has very light surface noise that's well within limits for a Near Mint grade — fine for nightclub or radio play, for example.
