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!

LEGENDARY HEAVY FUZZ PSYCH
MORNING DEW
\ USA - ROULETTE RECORDS - SR 42049
QUITE RARE...
1970 FIRST PRINTING ... plays clean (see full details below, please)
MORNING DEW...Midwest legends who cut a handful of great garage 45s before this swan song hippie rock LP, which unfortunately was issued way too late to make any impact. Rated highly by many, it's a solid trip through Airplane/Cream/Butterfly dimensions mixing early heavy moves with strong folk rock/psych material. Lack of macho vocals is a plus, and opening 'Crusader's Smile' is a killer classic.
The Morning Dew began as a good but not especially remarkable garage band from Topeka, Kansas, but as the mid-1960s became the late 1960s, their sound grew increasingly adventurous, and their approach became harder but more complex at the same time. The Morning Dew cut their only album for Roulette records, released in 1970 not long before the band broke up, and captures them at the peak of their instrumental powers -- Mal Robinson had grown into a fluid, expressive guitarist and powerful singer, Don Anderson's rhythm guitar provided plenty of muscular support, and drummer Don Shuford and bassist Blair Honeyman kept the songs rolling along and gave the melodies a firm bottom end. By this time, the Morning Dew had also learned to stretch out, with Robinson being a solid enough soloist, gutsy and forceful, to keep the tunes from getting lost, and songs like hard rocking "Gypsy" and "Crusader's Smile," the folky "Something You Say," and the trippy finale "Epic: The Mann/Death Is A Dream" prove this band had more on the ball than most second-string psych acts of the era.Crusader's Smile 3:45 Upon Living 2:15 Young Man 2:33 Then Came the Light 4:23 Cherry Street 4:19 Gypsy 5:54 Something You Say 4:32 Country Boy Blue 2:39 Save Me 3:47 Epic: 4:48 a.
