Scarce vintage soul funk LP featuring BOBBY THURSTON on the MAINLINE label out of Washington, D.C., from 1978. 

Title is “Sweetest Piece of the Pie.”  Stereo pressing, catalog number is MAINLINE 12747.   This is a stock copy, label is blue with silver print. 

D.C. soul legend Al Johnson arranged nearly half of the tracks on this killer LP, in addition to handling the keyboards and singing background vocals.

Guaranteed to be original and authentic.   I do not sell boots or modern reissues.

Track Listing:

Side One:

• Flash   (Willie Lester-Rodney Brown)  
• Na Na Na Na Baby  (R. Brown-W. Lester)

Jacket:  Jacket is nice and clean.  Grades nice VG+ to VG++ with no serious problems.  Art work on both the front and reverse is clean, with a bit of minor surface wear beginning to appear.  Bottom seam shows a bit of wear, with what appears to be a tiny split just starting to occur at bottom center.  No writing, stickers, or other flaws.  Overall a fine jacket you will be proud to display.          

Vinyl:  Beautiful EX disc with full brilliant original gloss, appears to have been played a very small number of times and handled with care.  There are a couple slight scuffs that do not affect the playing.  No serious marks or problems.  Labels are clean and pristine.  Fidelity is superb as you can hear in the accompanying sound clip.  This is a beauty!
