Description
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. Thank you for your interest and support. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SHIPPING: USA ~ 1 LP $4.00 Media; 2-4 discs $5.00; .50 each additional disc Priority rates vary by area; please inquire.

1965 Hard Driving R&B Blues Beat-Punk COLLECTIBLE
=ORIGINAL PRESSING=
THEM
\ USA - - Parrot Records - [PA 61005] MONO
MINT VINYL = NICE clean COLLECTIBLE ....
=> Sought after, collectible 1965 original USA first pressing of the snarl garage pounding sneer of Van Morrison's first album with the tough UK beat band, THEM...
Anyone who might think that Van Morrison is more an artifact and purveyor of '70s post-folk singer/songwriter gentle on my mind fare (not that there's anything wrong with that) is referred directly to this mid-'60s debut of his Belfast Ireland band, THEM. "Gloria" alone, an instant standard for garage bands worldwide, should answer any further questions, but the yowling kick of the rest is all the way up to that classic and not to be missed. "Baby Please Don't Go" was a breakthrough single and British EP for Them early in 1965. That led to the recording of this LP. Their hit single "Here Comes The Night" was their biggest hit single. "Gloria", although superior to The Shadows Of Knight's hit version, wasn't the radio play choice because of suggestive lyrics omited by the Shadows Of Knight. The driving rough-house stomper "Mystic Eyes" was a minor-league hit in the US around Christmas time. And there's a cover of "Route 66" here (also done by the Stones in the mid-60s), otherwise most of the material seems to be original. Them were comparable to the Stones with thir hard edged tough sound. Bob Dylan is somewhat restrained by comparison to Van Morrison's breathtaking immersion in tumbling blasts of language, his poetry is accompanied by a bluesy band as raw as the scrapes on knees and elbows after a spill from a cycle. THEM rocks very hard and so does Van Morrison.
