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.

PLAYS CLEAN!
RARE 54 years ago collection keeper!
- Original 1967 first press on the local Minnesota label "Dove Records."
- Legendary garage rock, T.C. ATLANTIC were as popular as THE LITTER, though they came before by only months.
- T.C. Atlantic was a garage rock/psychedelic band from Minneapolis, Minnesota in the 1960s. They were one of the most popular groups in the Twin Cities, but failed to break nationally despite having potential but no exposure due to limited management.
- In the intervening years since their breakup, their recordings have attracted the interest of '60s music collectors and enthusiasts, and they are particularly remembered for their 1966 fuzz-tinged song, "Faces", which has been mentioned as one of the earliest garage rock songs to display psychedelic characteristics and killer sensibilities. They were one of the biggest groups in the Minneapolis area, recording a six singles and this LP that went little heard outside of the Minnesota region.
- T.C. Atlantic consisted of
- Freddy Freeman on vocals and keyboards,
- Bob Wells on guitar,
- Joe Kanan on bass,
- Rod Eaton on drums.
Their first single, "I Love You So Little Girl" was released in 1965 on Aesop's Records. In March 1966 they followed it up with "Mona" b/w "My Babe."
- Their third record was released in June on Turtle Records and featured the trance-like psychedelic sounds of "Faces," backed with garage punker "Baby Please Don't Go.
- " Faces," featured the sound of a fuzz-toned guitar & organ and eastern scales, has been mentioned as one of the earliest garage rock songs to display psychedelic characteristics and remains forever a "monster."
- In November they cut another record of Turtle, "Shake" b/w "Spanish Harlem." In 1967 the band recorded this LP for Dove Records, Live at the Bel Rae Ballroom, though consisting of T.C. Atlantic tapes of popular garage-rock songs, it is today highly regarded. In early 1968 they cut a single for Candy Floss Records (C.A.Quintet fame), "I'm So Glad" b/w "20 Years Ago (In Speedy's Kitchen).
- Their last record came out in May of that year on Parrot Records, "Love is Just" b/w "Faces."
- The band broke up shortly thereafter.
