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.

#107 limited edition (1970 DEMO ONLY) HOLY GRAIL BRITISH PSYCH TREASURE

- UK - 10th Planet - 038 (MONO)
NUMBERED (#107) and long long gone from near 25 years past of one of the greatest-ever British "swinging London pop-psych" museum worthy legends who made but 99 copies as a demo record in quest to get a record deal. The style of the music being popsike (psychedelic underground rock with a flair focusing on unreal memorable melodies) was phasing out by time the album was released having been the type of music found in England some two years or more before 1970. Be that as it may, the contents of the COMPLEX album are so wickedly entertaining collectors have driven a value of one of the 99 first made towards the unbelievable sum of $10,000. In fact, a year ago, we saw in the flesh, a copy for sale and that one was in "EXcellent" condition for $15,000.
Long ago the defunct UK label "10th Planet" issued the album for only the second time in numbered edition (this copy #107) which cleans up / remasters the original murky master tapes, in superiority over the original issues sound quality, reflecting out of this world self composed tracks injected by unreal-catchy melodies, and constructed of just organ, guitar, bass & vocals/drums
The overall result is breathtaking fusion of melody and performance that given the right time frame of release could have put the band on the roadway to fame and fortune!
According to an interesting article from the Vinyl Factory Website, a lucky collector recently bought a copy of Complex for £1 from a Junk Shop in Northwest England.
You who may not be so lucky, though I wish you to be, a big IF you find it for sale, you will have to spend between 8 and 10 thousand dollars depending on its condition !

CONDITION: - The cover: rated: M- TOP COPY ... fragile and delicate, next best to the real deal, impossible to find or afford. here's the next best possibility and even this numbered issue from near 25 years ago (UK) is tough to find.
- NO issues, as nice as first released long ago.
- The vinyl: Rated: M- Thick heavy-weight pressing , full quality, the sound is now very respectable as remastered and superior over the dense demo audio of 1970

A cool addition to anyone's music library!
