ATTENTION: Starting off the new year with our biggest auction to date - over 300 LPs, ranging from funk to latin to psych to soul. No filler here - we've been saving these up all winter long, and finally letting them go just now. Tons of big-time rarities on this list, including a Douglas High School LP from '76 (same HS as Black-Out 70), Aposento Alto, Jo Jo Smith on Hoctor, Marcus Belgrave "Gemini", alongside dozens of private press rarities, some killer JA original reggae LPs, and a thorough run of Tex-Mex latin funk LPs.
As always, each of our auctions feature full high resolution photos and soundclips taken from both sides of every 45, so take your time to check out some things on the list you might not have heard before.  If you have any questions, or would like to join the Cavern Discos mailing list for future eBay notifications and set sales, please send me a message through eBay or email me at spelunk@me.com Thanks! -B

Soundclip #2    
Very, very rare album from Orinda, CA - a suburb just over the hill from Oakland in the San Francisco Bay Area. White group with a really unique sound, well put together mixture of funk, rock and psych. This is the ONLY copy of this that I've ever seen - no copies with the artist and I've heard it claimed that only 200 of these were pressed - an odd number, but I'd believe it considering its rarity. I don't mean to overhype this one but only want to stress that it's not the kind of album that can be picked up some other time - this one is tough, so bid accordingly.

I am a DJ and collector and grade conservatively on the simple scale of Sealed, NM, EX, VG+, VG, VG-, G, and Poor. All items are original first pressings unless otherwise noted. All audio clips, photos and label scans are taken from the copy of the record for sale and are not altered in any way.
_______________________________________________________

Payment is generally expected within three days of auction's end. Paypal is highly preferred, but if another payment method works better for you, please contact me prior to bidding so that we can work something out.

Please note that due to an increasing number of non-paying bidders, if payment is not received within 7 days an unpaid item claim will be filed with eBay as a way to resolve the dispute. Please contact me ASAP if you need to make alternative payment arrangements - I'm usually amenable to them, especially for my repeat customers.
