HOLY GRAIL 1st time offered on eBay TOP COPY!!!

BLIND OWL "s/t" ORIGINAL Private Press LP Canadian Folk Psych Rock ULTRA RARE


Auction is for an ULTRA RARE 100% ORIGINAL CANADIAN-ONLY PRESSING of BLIND OWL'S "SELF TITLED" LP from 197? on Private Label (Self-Released). WOW!!! Here's an absolute monster rarity that I'm fairly certain has never been offered on eBay… until now! Absolute top-shelf sounds to boot so no wonder this has been so sweated by those in the know. Only 100 copies were ever pressed (confirmed w/ band; never any copies at the source) and as most were used as demos there's a pretty good chance a good chunk of the run ended up getting tossed. Suffice to say it may be some time before another copy, especially in this kind of condition, surfaces for sale on here. Reissued last year by Strawberry Rain thru Light In The Attic, you can actually hear short clips of the album here… http://lightintheattic.net/releases/1027-blind-owl. Truly top of the heap for self released folk/ssw sounds of that era and the best to come out of Canada, imho. Will not disappoint fans of this style. Moderate reserve given I'd heard of a copy that traded hands a few years back at Utrecht for upwards of 2,000 Euros(!). I know the term gets bandied about a lot but this is truly a holy grail. Bid accordingly as you may not get the opportunity again for some time (if ever). ***PLEASE NOTE: Due to the high value, this LP will be required to ship via registered courier service with tracking (ie. FedEx, Purolator, UPS). This will likely exceed $100 for International shipment; please inquire for exact rate.

Condition of Cover/Vinyl is VG++ / NM.

1 LP (less then .500g): $10.99 within Canada, $11.99 to the United States and $19.99 Internationally ($21.99 for Japan, Australia, Asia, etc).

*PLEASE NOTE: Buyers from ITALY & GERMANY must pay for registered shipping with tracking (XpressPost service) on any purchase, cost is approx. $60-65 to ship 1 LP with this service to the aforementioned countries.

*EVERY package with a value of $200 or more will require registered XpressPost service with tracking (buyer to pay actual cost - please inquire for the specific rates). XpressPost within Canada can cost as little as a few dollars more while a package to the U.S. is approx. $20 more and for International destinations rates start at about $60 for 1 LP ($65+ for Japan, Australia, Asia, etc). Please note that ALL International packages over 2kg ship via XpressPost (as small packet air is only for parcels under 2kg) hence International postage rates almost doubling at 2-3kg's as listed above.
