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 and will result in blocking the bidder. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our 8000 plus positive feedback.   We use a VPI 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.

... 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.

CONDITION: The cover: is solid on all parts, a rare top MINT cover still in factory shrink wrapper...has perforated "Free" at top right corner, the way Capitol Records designated all of their mid '60s promos including the Beatles Lp's. ...This is a hard to find top clean cover for the dark colors that wears SO easily, most copies have heavy cover wear after 46+ years...so this, a nice FINAL collectible keeper with NO delete marks......no split seams, no bends, no writing... overall collectible !

The vinyl: is all glossy and smooth both sides...M- TOP COPY ...the rainbow Capitol labels are both clean...

keeper!
