Description
Welcome to my auction. I have been collecting records for many many years, but now the time has come to sell part of my collection to fund other needs. Do not hesitate to bid because of my feedback. I have been around long enough to know how to pack correctly and I intend to do my best to keep you satisfied with your purchase. Please bookmark me as a seller as I intend to sell more than 2000 highly collectable vinyl LP’s in the next few months.(you also can send your want lists )
This auction is for:
Reissue of two ultra-rare compilations of garage bands from India released originally by an Indian tobacco company (Simla Cigarrettes) in conjunction with Grammophone Records of India. No sitars or ragas to be heard here; the sounds are straight Western-style garage and psychedelia. Fuzz guitars and go-go organs (and all-English vocals) abound, all played by insanely obscure but remarkably great bands from India: Confusions, The Fentones, Dinosaurs, Nomads, X’Lents, Hipnotic Eye, Genuine Spares, Mini Beats, Great Bear, Velvette Fogg, Innerlite, The Black Beats, The Eruptions, etc. The original albums, issued in 1970 and ’71, are of the “count the number of known copies on one hand and have three fingers left over” level of rarity. This edition is a very limited 2-LP set, released in 1999 on the highly acclaimed Little Indians label from Germany (later to become Shadoks), known for the high production quality of its releases. This is a limited edition of 400 copies pressed on heavy vinyl and housed in a beautiful and massively thick gatefold cover. Pictures of the original LP covers plus the original liner notes are included. One of the best compilations for this style that you’ll ever hear!
