PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING: Please read the entire auction listing, including shipping costs, before writing to ask a question. OUR GOAL IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any concerns that may arise. In the unlikely instance that you feel the need to open a resolution dispute before working with us, you will immediately be blocked from any further chance to acquire the rare music we present each and every week. Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end. Please keep in mind our listings are time consuming in detail and we are often traveling to find these gems, which at times delays the delivery schedule by a day or two. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office.Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has became very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable and will result in blocking the bidder. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our 8000 plus positive feedback. We use a VPI machine and thoroughly clean all records. Each order is carefully packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery. We take Customer Service seriously, and want you to be satisfied. Please give us 5 stars in each category through the feedback system, and we will be able to effectively continue to fulfill your passion for rare and collectible music! We have served thousands of satisfied customers - far more than our feedback records indicate - and our aim is to continue to do so.

ELLIE POP
\ USA - MAINSTREAM RECORDS - S/6116
FINAL COLLECTION TOP COPY =
Rare and highly sought for good reason comes this original 1968 first printing. The Roseville, Michigan band's sole album, ELLIE POP is one of the finest Beatles-influenced albums of its era. Went right over the record buying public, and strong enough to have been huge! Anyone into the great "The Fredric" ('Phases & Faces') LP may well enjoy Ellie Pop!
The 1968 Mainstream label album "ELLIE POP" is definitely a pop/psychedelic classic-in-waiting, whose time has perhaps finally come; great songs right from the start, all oozing Beatles harmonics, with tracks such as 'Some Time Ago' and 'Caught In The Rain' especially thick with Beatles influence (thus explaining their appearance on the Pepperisms compilation); as with most Mainstream releases, there is precious little information on the band in the original LP notes, besides the fact that they were a quartet, with brothers Doug Kouri and George Kouri responsible for writing all tracks; this is really a wonderful set of catchy songs, not exactly psychedelic, but with innovative edge-distorted guitars and odd time signatures that make every song worth hearing., ala where the Beatles were with "Rubber Soul"... Naturally the album vanished without a trace upon original release, followed soon by the band.
