WITH MUCH APPRECIATION TO ALL OUR CUSTOMERS:  If you have a question on orders received, please contact us.  We take Customer Service seriously, and want you to be satisfied.   When leaving Feedback, please consider the following:  eBay's policy on the 5-star rating system is anything less than a 5  reduces our standing with eBay and ultimately can affect our selling abilities.   SO 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.  
We have 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  2/3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers.

We mail all paid orders out once a week on Fridays/Saturdays.  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 to Monday.   We strive to keep our shipping and handling costs as close to actual charges as reasonable.  We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order.  Please be aware we have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office.  

TO OUR REPEAT CUSTOMERS:  We are happy to hold orders to save on shipping.  Please pay your current invoice within five days of auctions ending and, if you request, we will hold your order and reflect a shipping discount for each additional order shipped together in the same parcel.

1971 Original first pressing vinyl in TOP condition ...hard to find the dark cover clean...this copy is a nice clean relic from the Detroit rock'n'roll scene...

Housed in a triple thick gatefold cover, the 1970 local Michigan self promoted album by the rockin' WOOLIES is right up the alley when talking Detroit hard rock, in the mix with other bands at the time, ala The Stooges, MC5, Third Power...kick-ass rock and blues from East Lansing Michigan... The Woolies made two albums, Basic Rock being their first and best...The Woolies were primarily known for their rousing wild rave up "Who Do You Love" which leads this album off...so dynamic an impact that it was chosen for the early Michigan Nuggets legendary comp. The Woolies were formed in 1964 by vocalist Stormy Rice, keyboardist/harpist "Boogie" Bob Baldori, his guitarist brother Jeff, bassist Ron English and drummer Bee Metros. Debuting a year later with the single "Black Crow Blues," the Woolies issued a series of records on their own Spirit label culminating in a 1966 cover of "Who Do You Love" which became such a regional smash that it was picked up for national distribution by Dunhill. While an enduring cult favorite among today's collectors, the single failed to make much of an impact upon its inital reissue, and after 1967's follow-up "Duncan and Brandy" met a similar fate, their tenure at Dunhill was finished. Still, the Woolies remained a local sensation, and in addition to backing giants like Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley and Muddy Waters as they passed through town, the band was also among the featured artists performing at the October 6, 1966 opening of Detroit's famed Grande Ballroom, opening up for The MC5. After Rice exited in 1968 to pursue an ill-advised solo career, the Woolies added multi-instrumentalist Zocko Groendahl and continued touring relentlessly, self-releasing this debut LP "Basic Rock" in 1971.
