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. In the unlikely instance that you feel the need to open a resolution dispute before working with us, you will immediately be blocked from any further chance 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. Please keep in mind 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 became 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. 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.

RARE to find in MINT condition

ADVANCED RELEASE PROMOTIONAL

Original 1968 first pressing by a lost & obscure band with West Coast sound, especially the female/male harmony tracks ... they were listening to Jefferson Airplane and still come off with their "own thing" ...

Another great obscure late 60's American Sunshine Pop/Psych band...   The album is highlighted by "Caterpillar" which contains just great '60s era psychedelic freakiness and as well thee are notable infectious melody laden tracks like "Where Has My Old Friend Billy Jones Gone" which is first class...   SNOW are one of those West Cost sounding bands like Peanut Butter Conspiracy meets Jefferson Airplane, but really only in edges and spirit as they have their own sound. Containing female/male harmonies in the pop-rock tracks alongside ferocious rock (“Song Of The Sirens”). This group has the same quirky sound and sense of social commentary as label mates "The Third Rail" (“Old Uncle Timothy’s Flying Balloon”, “Sweet Dreams”, “Bab’s Song”), but the musicianship is much more accomplished, and the themes are darker. “Englebert” is an acid-drenched reworking of “Old Shep”, wherein a grieving boy takes revenge against the callous killer of his beloved dog. “The Flying Miraldos” tells the story of a trapeze artist haunted by the ghost of the uncle he replaced. The above mentioned “Caterpillar” sounds like a lost track from their MGM label contemporaries 'Chrysalis', dense and trippy.

This one isn’t easy to find anymore, but it’s more than worth the search.
