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. Because of that dedication, there should be no need to open a resolution dispute before working with us. 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 18,000 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!

- Europe - PRIVATE PRESS
Here's one of the more obscure, little seen gems that really make it based on true conductibility. Was but a limited European pressing of about 500 copies from several years back and sold out very quickly due to the content and quite listenable 'soundboard' quality. Unearthed just the one (1) copy, in MINT condition and while knowing absolutely nothing past the fact that had run across a copy some years before, and didn't buy it on the spot, did return for, but it was gone. Didn't have to think twice the next copy crossed paths with, and here it is....
The (1975) source of material displayed was not that many years after the 13th Floor Elevators had broken up, Roky freed from the "set up" drug charges formed THE ALIENS with trick FUZZ guitarist "Bird" and Billy Miller, the electric auto-harp player from the legendary COLD SUN, a notable Texan PSYCH band. First things first, was amazing how Billy Miller could emulate his electrified auto-harp to sound like 'the jug' The 13th Floor Elevators were known for.
So the 1975 material performed on this album are earlier renditions or work-ups (way more harsh & primitive) of material that would eventually be released some five years later on the European-only "Rocky & The Aliens" album.
This is fun listening stuff, in all it's glory and yes, "Roky's On Fire" to capture exact statement bellowed out by show attendee Don Campbell (a.k.a. D.C.) ....

CONDITION: - The cover: rated: M-, very fragile slip cover artwork over typical-think European cardboard stock. Could be beat up, used and abused, however the owner was very caring, left a beauty. Enjoy! There are no delete marks, no split seams, no bends, and no writing ...
- The vinyl: Rated: M- clean and clear, plays as nice as it did years ago when released as a 'now you see it - now you don't' limited LP. Both stylized ROKY labels are CLEAN, immaculate!
A cool addition to anyone's music library!
