The Students Of Avon High School -- Sing-Out Avon LP

Under the Direction of Gilbert Madrigale and Robert McKenney

Original 1967 or 1968 US stereo custom pressing on Vogt Quality Recordings (Needham MA) (catalog # CSRV 2167).

Bizarre pseudo-Xian public high school album from the 1967-68 class of Avon High in Massachusetts. To quote the clumsily narrated musical introduction, this is "a musical presentation originated by... Moral Re-Armament... the show has been designed to emphasize the principles of this movement which are basically dedication to God and to country... the founder of this movement Frank Buchman realized that the world needed a type of strength based on morality rather than armed life..."

This is a very interesting listen... a local provincial southeastern Mass take, and a horrendously dated-sounding take, on the Up With People! juggernaut, spiked with a far too heavyhanded dose of "Moral Rearmament" prostletyzing but they've got a full band and they can play really really fast...

CONDITION: Cover VG+ / Vinyl VG++   nice shape, cover is just starting to split at top seam; vinyl is excellent, light wear, plays great.

Graded conservatively using Goldmine standards [G / G+ / VG / VG+ / NM / ]
grade only used if record is brand new.
Bid with confidence -- over 14000 positive feedbacks selling vinyl on eBay since 1998, with a total 13-year average of 100% positive.

Shipping And Payment Info

Vinyl can be shipped worldwide via any method.
I will combine shipping. Winners of multiple items save substantially on shipping costs.

Within the US: Media Mail shipping is calculated automatically based on weight. NOTE: Media Mail can be S-L-O-W sometimes, especially to the West Coast. Media Mail delivery time is usually anywhere from 4 to 10 days, but occasionally it takes 2 weeks or even longer to reach the West Coast from here. Please consider this potential delay before you decide to go with Media Mail instead of Priority Mail.

Priority Mail is a highly recommended option for all vinyl, it's a lot faster and much more secure -- I double-box (and sometimes triple-box) all LP's shipped via Priority Mail. Cost is reasonable and calculated based on your zip code.

Shipping costs include delivery confirmation for all US orders.

Combine shipping with other items: The cost of each extra item is calculated automatically based on weight: if you want to add a record or CD to your order the cost is less than $1, usually around 50 cents per extra item depending on total weight.

Outside the US: shipping is calculated automatically based on your country and the weight of the record. IMPORTANT: Priority Mail International and Express Mail International are the only services which provide tracking. First Class Mail International is normally a very reliable service, but it does not provide tracking so if you choose First Class Mail International you agree not to hold me responsible in the unlikely event of loss or damage to the package -- please review my 13+ years of 14000+ positive feedbacks if you have any concerns, and contact me for more details.

Combine shipping with other items: If you want to add a normal-weight record (7", 12", or LP) or CD to your order the cost is reasonable, usually not more than $3.99 per extra item, often less, depending on total weight.

All records are packaged securely, protected by both stiff and cushion packaging, with vinyl (in original innersleeve) removed from cover and placed safely in poly sleeve to help prevent seam splitting during transit.

I can usually accommodate special shipping requests or special payment requirements, just ask.
