PLEASE READ THIS FIRST!
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Hi and welcome to my new round of auctions. I am from Vancouver, Canada but living in Saint Petersburg, Russia. I have been buying and selling on eBay since 1998 and have an excellent feedback record. The items I have on eBay right now are all located in Saint Petersburg, Russia and will be sent from here using Russian Post.
The cost to ship one record from Russia to any country in the world is $16.00 US by Registered Air Mail. The cost for extra records is $3.00 each (double LPs count as two). Please wait for my invoice before making a payment because eBay's shipping calculator is incorrect. The cost to ship a record from Russia is not $4.00!
I have sent many records by Russian Post and all of them were delivered safely so don't worry about your shipment. Russian Post may be a little old fashioned but they have an excellent system that works very well. Shipping times are a little longer than normal so please be patient. Sometimes the record will be delivered very fast though. For example: I sent seven packages with eight records in each to Vancouver and they arrived in less than one week.
***PLEASE NOTE*** Bidders from Italy and France must use a courier (Fedex, DHL) or EMS Mail for delivery which is expensive. If you plan on bidding then please let me know in advance and I will give you the shipping costs for sending the record with an online tracking number.
I only accept Paypal for payment but please wait for my invoice before making your payment.
Check back again because I will be selling a lot of rare Soviet and Eastern European jazz, funk, electronic, psych, prog, etc, records in the coming weeks. Plus some rare disco funk 12”s from the USA.
Thanks and good luck!
LOS JAIVAS ENSEMBLE – LIVE IN MOSCOW on Melodiya Records USSR (C60 20945 007) recorded in 1983 and pressed in 1984.
Ultra rare psych prog LP by LOS JAIVAS from Chile recorded during their tour of the Soviet Union in 1983. Very scarce and hard-to-find.
Tracks are: Follow Me and Rise, My Brother // Running // Enlightenment // Machu Picchu Heights
The condition of the vinyl is MINT and probably unplayed.
The condition of the cover is EXCELLENT (just a little ringwear which is common for Melodiya pressings).
FROM PROG ARCHIVES:
Back in the 1980's, if you had listen to this album you were a very lucky guy. Today, if you own the original LP, you might be sure you have a treasure.
What's my point? This is a very rare recording. I think it was only edited in the USSR. Maybe two or three copies are actually here in Chile (I'm talking 'bout the vinyl disc, if you downloaded the mp3 you are lucky, but not so much).
Well, let's review this little piece of jewelery.
Sube a Nacer Conmigo Hermano (Follow me and Rise, My Brother). A great start for a live release. Although I don't think they started their concert with this tune, it's a powerful song that keeps the listener always up with itswonderfully-frantic piano arpeggios that are throughout the whole song; the constant groove of drums and bass that doesn't decay and the well-known mini moog riff that precedes the high-pitched almost flawless singing of Gato Alquinta.
Corre que te Pillo (Running). A 12-minute instrumental song with an amazing extended drum solo by the late Gabriel Parra, including a bass-drum/hi-hat 12/8 groove created and developed by himself and a variation for two bass-drums in this live performance. Being a drummer myself, I think every drummer in the world should listen to this song and specially this version. It's not about the drum solo, but also the whole work he did in the entire song. The main traditional malambo rhythm and how he develops it. And last but not least, don't forget his drum set had 12 tom-toms.
Pregón para Iluminarse (Enlightenment). I'm pretty sure this was the first song of the show and was chosen to be put in between two 12-minute epics. As all the four songs in this record, a flawless performance of the five original members in what is considered today as the band's peak. If you have ever watched or listened something live from the years 80~88 you might agree. If not, try to get a copy of this.
La Poderosa Muerte (Heights of Macchu Picchu). What a perfect performance for this epic song. Almost 12 minutes of Los Jaivas in the peak of their career. Well, many people say this is the greatest Jaivas' composition ever. This is the greatest live version for this masterpiece I've ever heard.
OK, I think that's it. The only thing I can say to end this review is try to get a copy of this, it's a great live recording of an amazing band. Besides, it's a rare edition of an historic concert... If you're a Jaivas' fan, you MUST get this, trust me.
