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.

1970 MEGA RARE ORIGINAL BLUES ROCK, SCORCHING GUITAR DOMINATED !
..|/\|...............................................|/\|..
FIRST FRIDAY
..|/\|...............................................|/\|..
USA - PRIVATE PRESS - WEBSTERS LAST WORD
((NO COPIES AROUND - ANYWHERE!))
MEGA RARE - completed UNKNOWN (1970 original LP) hard-guitar blues rock band with a bite ... From the entire side A and side B we were surprised by the consistent self penned tracks & performance.
Somewhat like the one-sided FARM 1971 album private press from Illinois (not to be confused with the mellow Tennessee hippies Farm band) meeting with the likes of a crunchy blues bang by the illustrious Iron Lung.
More accessible / understandable terms would liken the guitar-work of FIRST FRIDAY to Alvin Lee of Ten Years After ... About every track is dominated by express-flash guitar leads delivered by the speed of sound within self penned compositions. Overall someone is going to really appreciate this utter obscurity from 48+ years ago!
Why this guitarist isn't a household name is beyond us -
Very few high end collectors know of - or have. Nevertheless the band/LP has the "right sound."
Unfortunately we can't post a sound sample, otherwise this rarity potentially would sell in a minute...
