THE RAINBOW PRESS

Sunday Funnies

Original US LP released on Mr. G Records in 1969.

 The Rainbow Press was formed in the summer of 1968 by six college students, all from the suburbs of New York City. Marc Ellis and Bill Yergin were high school classmates and Joe Groff, Larry Milton, Dave Troup and Charlie Osborne also knew each other in high school. They formed, under the original name of the Continental Divide, as a summer thing before going back to their various colleges again. However, halfway through the summer, they were signed by Audio Fidelity records on their Mr. G label.

Changing their name to the Rainbow Press, they recorded their album, “There’s a War On” in a 4 track recording studio above Radio City Music Hall in New York. Released in the Fall of 1968, the album received critical industry “picks” for the album and the single “There’s a War On”, enough that Mr. G requested a new LP as soon as possible. The second LP “Sunday Funnies” was recorded during Christmas vacation at the 8 track studio A&R in NYC. It was released in the Spring of 1969, with the release of the single “Great White Whale”. The Rainbow Press was truly a studio band, never going on the road to perform as the Rainbow Press.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT COMBINED SHIPPING ON ALL 12" VINYL / LPS / 12" EPS / 12" SINGLES - PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY!!!!

We offer combined shipping on all LPs / 12" Vinyls: our shipping rates are listed above. HOWEVER shipping packages that weigh more than 2kg is VERY expensive. Therefore we can only offer combined shipping up to a maximum of SEVEN (7) LPs / 12" vinyls. Any extra purchases will be invoiced, packaged and shipped separately.

***Due to the physical logistics of how I can package orders, I will not combine box sets with other items, I will only package them individually***

---------------------------------------------------

COMBINED POSTAGE FOR DIFFERENT FORMATS will be invoiced at my discretion:

While I am happy to combine (for example) one or two 7” singles into one package with 12” records, sometimes it simply isn’t practical (like if you want me to combine one 12” record with three or more 7” records). I simply do not think that these combinations can be packaged together safely and securely. Therefore these will be invoiced separately as two packages.

IF YOU ARE UNSURE, please contact me before bidding!

---------------------------------------------------

Sorry but I am no longer willing to carry combined transactions beyond two weeks of auctions (see below).

---------------------------------------------------

PAYMENT

I would appreciate payment within seven days of the auction’s end. If you want to bid on more of my auctions ending a week later please inform me. I will wait and issue a combined invoice at the close of the second week’s auctions.

However, I am no longer willing to carry combined transactions beyond two weeks and in these cases would appreciate payment promptly after the close of the second week’s auctions.

I am sorry to have to introduce these measures – I always try to be patient and allow buyers to bid on extra auctions and / or delay payment. Unfortunately some buyers have been stretching out transactions to unacceptable lengths so I feel I have no option but to limit ‘carried over’ transactions to two weeks.
