Dear Lord, can someone tell me WHO this guy was?  There’s NOTHING on the interwebs about this single, or the artists, and I say “artists” as a plural because the tiny Twin Record label wasn’t even generous to give Mr. John Kitko BOTH sides of this 7”.  For some reason, he had to share it with some guy named Tom Poff, who even sounds like a bit of a load.  Thing is, when you listen to the MONSTER heavy acid psych Motorhead on speed brain-fryer that’s “Indecision,” you gotta shake your head and wonder who in their right mind WOULDN’T let John Kitko have a second shot at splitting some young skulls open.  “Indecision” is a masterpiece.  It takes its time to get going, starting out with some fuzz and acid guitar like it’s going to channel some late 60’s Fillmore psych band.  But once that speed demon Blue Cheer guitar riff kicks in, it’s all balls-to-the-wall mayhem from then on.  And John’s I-gargle-daily-with-battery-acid-and-the-blood-of-newborns vocals push this thing WAY over the top.  Why this thing ain’t known by now is a mystery.  As a matter of fact, who even tipped me off to it in the first place is a mystery too.  But here’s only the SECOND copy I’ve located.  The first stays with me.  For when I want to bother the neighbors.

UPDATE: SORRY, I NO LONGER SHIP TO ITALY DUE TO A CORRUPT POSTAL SYSTEM (THERE, NOT HERE).

(THE LESS EXCITING STUFF...)

First class shipping is $4.00 in the US, with each additional record only $1 additional shipping.  Delivery confirmation included in the shipping costs.  US International postal rates just shot up nearly double this past week, so please take note of the new rates.  I don't make a profit on shipping costs - these are what the post office charges me.  Air mail shipping to Canada starts at $10 US, each additional record $3 shipping.  Air mail shipping everywhere else in the world starts at $13 US, with each additional record only $4 shipping.  

I try to grade as best as I can, and I list as many blemishes/imperfections I can find (writing, ringwear, scuff marks, etc.) – Also, please note that I DO listen to these albums – I may not listen to every track, but my grades are based on LISTENING, not just looking at it, since chances are you’ll be listening to the record you buy, not just looking at it.  Most of the albums I sell are the ones I’ve enjoyed for years – and I treat my records with kid gloves.  But sounds speak louder than words, so check out the sound clips below – they’re from the actual record you’re bidding on. 

SHIPPING AND PACKAGING

Listen, I buy a bunch of records too (when I’m not getting outbid at the last second, which is more often than not) – and I know what it’s like to get a rare, one-of-a-kind album packaged dangerously in a flimsy bubblewrap package.  I hate that too.  So rest assured, I ALWAYS package albums with stiff cardboard reinforcements, same for 45s.  And yes, the records are removed from the sleeves (for albums).  I ship out once a week, every Friday, because I have a regular day job.  But I’d be willing to give that up if you’d all be so kind as to bid my items up to stupidly high amounts. 

NOW IT’S YOUR TURN…

I will always leave positive feedback for successful transactions, and would appreciate the same in return.  All I ask of you is the following – please pay for your items within 14 days of the close of auction.  Compared to other sellers, that’s a generous amount of time, so if you don’t pay within 2 weeks, then I have to assume something’s wrong.  You’ll get an Ebay payment reminder at that point, and possibly a decapitated horse head in your bed.  If, after 30 days, you still haven’t forked up the cash, I’ll relist the item and yell at you if I ever see you in town.
