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 +22,000 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.

- N Zealand - DECCA Records - LKM 4679 (MONO)
"Begin Here" remains a significant work in The Zombies' discography, featuring their hit singles : "Tell Her No" & "She's Not There" and showcasing their early sound that influenced many future artists.
This is an entirely authentic and original first New Zealand issue on the unboxed red Decca label LK 4679 from 1965 on strong, shiny, glossy, thick and sturdy flexible vinyl.
(SEE CONDITION BELOW)
First of all, the semi acappella 'The Way I Feel Inside' is beautifully crisp and clean The Zombies’ first album showcases their signature mix of jazz-influenced pop and British Invasion energy.
Featuring hits like "She’s Not There" and ''Tell Her No," the record combines Rod Argent’s haunting keyboard work with Colin Blunstone’s smooth vocals, creating an atmospheric and sophisticated sound that set them apart from the competition Zombies are recognized especially for their Baroque Pop, their Soft Rock or their psychedelic aesthetics, it is necessary to know that at their beginnings they approached a style logically more different, even if they already tended to what they were going to become. In the beginning, Zombies were a mix of Beatles, Animals and Beach Boys, with a background of Beat Music and Mod style. Roughly speaking we can say that overall the style of the Zombies was in the style of the times for a British Invasion band. Certainly the group was not as successful as their peers, however the Zombies did not just play second fiddle when they arrived, they built an important legacy and stood out for their uniqueness.
