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. Thank you for your interest and support. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SHIPPING: USA ~ 1 LP = $4.00 Media Priority rates vary by area; please inquire.

1968 original first pressing vinyl ... -
- (((see full details of condition below song titles)))
- The explosive sounds of peak sixties WHO, only released in the USA, contains powerful sides filled with classic tunes like
- Magic Bus and I Can See For Miles... .........................................................................................
In 1968 the Who had a surprise American hit with "Magic Bus" but had no new album to support it. So USA Decca Records quickly cobbled together a collection of singles, flipsides, UK-only EP tracks and earlier album cuts to create this album. Though it was a good seller for them, the group and management didn't appreciate the LP so it was never released outside the USA or even re-released with the remastering treatment like their other albums....
"I Can't Reach You" and "Our Love Was (Is)", both of which are great, come from "The Who Sell Out." (But this album is the only place you can find a different version of "Our Love Was" with a clean intro that is having no cross-fade from a previous song ala the 'Sell Out' Lp version.
"Run Run Run" is another great highly catchy song about a perpetually unlucky girl, and "Someone's Coming" and "Doctor, Doctor" are strange-but-fun John Entwistle compositions. "Bucket T." is the Who's attempt at Beach Boys-type material (Keith Moon's favorite song was "Don't Worry Baby.")
"Magic Bus" and "Pictures of Lily" (both timeless songs and of the Who's best 60's tracks) were, at the time, the only way to get the 45'son Lp. "Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde," a fun little song only available on this album, which is supposedly about Keith Moon's behavior when he was drinking. And a different version of "Call Me Lightning" without lead guitar shows up here.
In short, this is an interesting, highly sought collected Who Lp.
Disguises 3:04 Run Run Run 2:36 Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde 2:24 I Can't Reach You 2:56 Our Love Was, Is 3:00
Magic Bus 3:10 Someone's Coming 2:26 Doctor, Doctor 2:55 Bucket T. 2:05- Pictures Of Lily 2:37
