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.

MINT CLEAN VINYL!
STILL IN ORIGINAL FACTORY CELLOPHANE
Really hard to find this clean!!!
1966 first printing on the famously collected RAINBOW Capitol label of the sixties
CAPITOL RECORDS inner sleeve included
... it's the very first STONE PONEYS -- the guitar trio featuring a then unknown female voice by name of Linda Ronstadt who also plays finger cymbals in this memorable melodic and breezy folkrock setting -- including the West Coast hamonies of the mid sixties (see early Byrds) along with some pro backing like more weaving guitars, bouzouki, and even drums by then Mothers Of Invention percussionist Billy Mundi ... The Stone Poney's in '66 were a hit at various clubs along the Sunset Strip scene of Los Angeles where some important bands of the time played (Byrds,Love,Leaves,Hour Glass,Springfield, etc) making it the hot spot on the West Coast, before the Montery Pop Festival and the San Francisco hippie gathering of the following year.
back cover notes:
The Stone Poneys is a gentle trio....What The Stone Poneys do in a clear, crisp style is offer a lovely bouquet of musical flowers and wheat, the beauty and staff of life.
The first Poney is Linda Ronstadt, described by a friend as "Peter Pan still looking for Shadow". She is from Tuscon, Arizona, where she grew long black hair and big brown eyes.
The second Poney is Bob Kimmel. He is from Tuscon too, is the leader of the group, tries to keep watch over the others because he is a little bit older. He is the one with the beard.
The third and final Poney is Ken Edwards. He is not from Tuscon (he is a Californian), has a mop of curly hair, plays lead guitar, is sort of quiet and moody. He is the tall one.
The Stone Poneys is a nice group. Just like the good old days.They are not to be confused with anyone (or anything) else. Period.
Tell your best friends.
