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.

- TOP COPY -
rare to be found still in original factory cellophane...
The dark cover is all but impossible to find without wear - here's your TOP survivor!

Plenty hard to find 1969 first pressing ...you may see the recent reissue but seldom is seen the original '69 pressing ...must not have been a large production run of this title... eternally rare!
This obscure power trio is thought to have come from Boston, where they supported the Velvet Underground in 1969, the same year their sole LP appeared. An inspired blend of tough electric blues (Leavin' Trunk , Antique Locomotives), commercial songs with distinctive hooks (What Of I?, Pourscha Poe) and more overtly acid-influenced material (David's Rush, Yellow Wall), it's an overlooked psychedelic gem that deserves far wider recognition... Guitarist David Mello wasn't going to win any awards for prolific soloing but his playing fit in well with the bands sound. Bassist Richard Porter and drummer Michael Clemens were the real story. Porter had good chops and an excellent singing voice while Clemens drove the music with precision and rhythmic dexterity ... Overall, a strange bit of lost psychedelia – one of the many gems recorded by Columbia during the late 60s and early 70s by artists like this group, who left behind a brief and strong recorded legacy, but never really made it big time. The album's got a spacey feel on most tracks – with a mix of tripped out guitar, bass, and drums that ring out in kind of a post-Jefferson Airplane vein. Vocals are spooky enough – and highlights, among others, include "Yellow Wall", "I Like Your Company", "9-5, 95", "David's Rush", and "What Of I".What Of I? Leavin' Trunk David's Rush Pourscha Poe Antique Locomotives 9-5, '59 I Like Your Company Yellow Wall
