Mega Rare private press prog Lp-MAC ARTHUR II-w/insert!

artist: Mac Arthur
title: Mac Arthur II
label / cat#: BAY MUSIC / (no cat #, extremely limited self-released private press LP)

vinyl: EX+ (Vinyl is extremely shiny and beautiful in every way! There's just a few extremely light surface marks that do not effect play, nothing at all even remotely deep or notable; record looks like it was played only once or twice if at all ever before. Music plays strong and loud throughout both sides with a bit of light pop and crackle mainly evident in the quiet sections, nothing all too loud or distracting from overall enjoyment of play. Labels are crisp and clean with no real signs of visible wear at all to mention. Really Nice!)

cover: VG- (Cover does have a bit of moisture rippling damage across the bottom front side, not all too horrible really. Also a bit of ring and shelf wear, but no seam splits at all.)

insert sheet: NM (Yes, it actually still has the original inner lyric/liner note insert!!! It's a two-sided printed sheet full of lyrics and information about the record. Looks fantastic!)

This auction is for the EXTREMELY RARE and in-demand MAC ARTHUR - "MAC ARTHUR II" LP, on the Michigan private label BAY MUSIC, custom pressed in 1982. Recorded material from 1977 - 1982. This is a MEGA RARE original US private press progressive rock album, very few copies were made. This is for certain one the rarest US prog psych LPs, definitely deserving the frenzied buzz among the deepest of the underground collectors...some really trippy songs with a lot of stoned-out Robert Fripp style excursions and detours, quite dark and spacey in many sections. There's also a rather massive amount of effects and tape delay on the vocals and all around in general making this record sound like no other, definitely has it's own really amazing homebrew-yet-still-professional sound. Includes the original insert with lyrics and liner notes. Past copies in VG/VG- condition (missing the original insert) have sold for several hundred dollars. I have set the opening bid on this truly fine playing copy very low with no reserve. Thank you for viewing my auction.

please note: eBay has recently changed their policy on what is an acceptable rating score for detailed seller rating feedback...basically any rating less than 4.75 stars out of 5 is considered quite bad from now on by eBay and can actually prevent sellers from posting any new items for sale...I know it sounds rather harsh on their part, but unfortunately it is also true. Please take this into account if you decide to leave detailed feedback ratings for any of my items here on eBay. I truly do try my absolute hardest to make buyers happy with their transaction, quite often losing some money on shipping/packaging costs in order to hopefully retain my status as someone that can continue to sell future items. So please do leave 5 stars if you kindly would so that I can continue selling wonderful & rare records here on eBay. I sincerely thank you for taking the time to read this. I know it might seem a little annoying, but I feel it is absolutely necessary at this point to share this knowledge with all buyers and sellers so that it is completely understood by all.
