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. Because of that dedication, there should be no need to open a resolution dispute before working with us. Please keep in mind, we would prefer to continue to provide you the opportunity 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. 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 become very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our well over 18,000 positive feedback. We use an ultrasonic KLAudio 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 Priority rates vary by area; please inquire.

COMES WITH RARE LYRICS INSERT (never saw before!)
Very hard to find 1969 first pressing ...you may see the recent reissue but seldom is seen the original '69 pressing ...must not have been a large production run of this title... eternally rare!
This obscure power trio is thought to have come from Boston, where they supported the Velvet Underground in 1969, the same year their sole LP appeared. An inspired blend of tough electric blues (Leavin' Trunk , Antique Locomotives), commercial songs with distinctive hooks (What Of I?, Pourscha Poe) and more overtly acid-influenced material (David's Rush, Yellow Wall), it's an overlooked psychedelic gem that deserves far wider recognition... Guitarist David Mello wasn't going to win any awards for prolific soloing but his playing fit in well with the bands sound. Bassist Richard Porter and drummer Michael Clemens were the real story. Porter had good chops and an excellent singing voice while Clemens drove the music with precision and rhythmic dexterity ... Overall, a strange bit of lost psychedelia – one of the many gems recorded by Columbia during the late 60s and early 70s by artists like this group, who left behind a brief and strong recorded legacy, but never really made it big time. The album's got a spacey feel on most tracks – with a mix of tripped out guitar, bass, and drums that ring out in kind of a post-Jefferson Airplane vein. Vocals are spooky enough – and highlights, among others, include "Yellow Wall", "I Like Your Company", "9-5, 95", "David's Rush", and "What Of I".What Of I? Leavin' Trunk David's Rush Pourscha Poe Antique Locomotives 9-5, '59 I Like Your Company Yellow Wall
CONDITION: The cover: rated: VG++ as hard as the LP is to find, it's that much more hard to find without wear. The dark cover was very wear prone and clean copies just about don't exist. So there is only slight wear to front, back cover is VG++ the same = otherwise it's solid and sturdy all over with no bends, no writing, no split seams ...
The vinyl: Very clean thick platter, rated: VG++ mainly shiny/clean with some light scuffs, plays very strong clean audio ... Clean DATE labels
A cool addition to anyone's music library!
