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.

BEAUTIFUL ***MINT*** perfect copy in THICK gatefold ... STILL IN FACTORY SHRINK WRAPPER ... hardly EVER found in this condition, a great chance at what's probably ARGENTS' *BEST* album ...
1973 ORIGINAL ISSUE IN THICK GATEFOLD COVER ... original printed inner sleeve
This special copy still contains the RARE "God Gave Rock & Roll To You" STICKER on the outer cellophane - go try to find it - good luck!!!
...Just in case you never heard of this group, ARGENT consisted of ROD ARGENT, who had played with the ZOMBIES, on keyboards and vocals..RUSS BALLARD, who would go on to have a lot of his songs made popular by major '70s groups, on vocals and guitar...and bassist JIM RODFORD and drummer BOB HENRIT, who would later become the rhythm section for THE KINKS.
ARGENT were a prog rock band that centered around the keyboard talents of ROD ARGENT and the strong songwriting of ROD and RUSS. RUSS wasn't much in the way of a lead guitarist, but he had a great, tenor singing voice and a love of power chords.
IN DEEP, their fourth album, was their heaviest album, and probably best most consistant album. Includes fan fave favorite songs IT'S ONLY MONEY, PARTS 1 and 2...and the try-to-be scary prog rocker BE GLAD. The first part of IT'S ONLY MONEY may be the best song BALLARD ever wrote..it's a very dangerous sounding and heavy prog rocker with some very solid drumming and a very catchy, cool guitar riff. In contrast, IT'S ONLY MONEY, PART 2 is an upbeat and rather amusing song! The whole band sounds like they're having a party on this song... a cool part is where BALLARD's little guitar injects right before the vocal part that ends the song. BE GLAD has Rod Argent going back and forth between his piano and his organ and while this song hedges between EVIL AND SINISTER, it's still an enjoyable song with some terrific keyboard solos and some nice guitar riffing. LOSING HOLD is another strong track, tho' it's a tad on the downbeat side..to say the very most!
The album ends with the barroom rock-n-roller ROSIE, and JIM RODFORD was quite proud of his "GET ON WIV IT!"
