Description

I have been a collector of LPs since 1980 - so I know how important condition is. If you have any problems whatsoever with the condition of what you receive I will accept a return (you pay postage).

Important note: I will post the item to Europe and USA only.

Bidders outside UK: Please contact me for postage costs if outside the UK to avoid any nasty surprise. I do my best to keep postage and package costs low. However, the Royal Mail have increased prices significantly - I wish they had not - but it is a fact. I will need to confirm the cost which will NOT be the UK rate. I will need to invoice you for the total, so please refrain from paying until I invoice you.

I will post it within 3 days of receiving payment.

Grading note: I do not use the grade EX. If something falls short of M- I grade it VG++, (or less).

Packing note: packed in Cruciform or Music-max Defenda mailer with stiffeners. Cover separated from vinyl to avoid seam splits. 

Label: RMT

Cover grades: VG. Please see images. General wear to front and rear (light). Edge wear and splits at top and spine (refer to images). I have the original inner (but the LP is stored in a plastic lined inner).

Vinyl grades:

Visually: VG+. Many superficial (light) marks. A couple of more visible ones on Side 2. Nothing feelable and it plays very well, enjoyable sound.

This LP is rare and is excellent too. The track 'Looking Glass World' would be at home on any of the early Pebbles LPs. A great primitive garage psych feel permeates the whole LP. The lighter tracks have a suble 'lost' feel. I love the LP - but I will settle for the Anazitisi reissue now.

500 pressed - and many were lost in a house move (confirmed by Danny Amburn of the band who kindly provided some more information, please see below):

Dear rji13,

HI, I saw the Fortune Teller LP (original) you have up for sale. I really liked your description of the music on it. When we recorded it, we thought it would do something. It took 30 yrs for us to find out, the copies that did get out made it around the world ! Out of the 500, there is a good possibility that only 300 or so made it. I lost nearly 100 of them when I left them in my house and rented it out. I'm really glad one made it to England!! I hope you get your price for it. If interested in any useless trivia on it, feel free to contact me back.

Danny Amburn

LP will be posted signed for (you pay no extra from what is shown).
