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! We have served thousands of satisfied customers - far more than our feedback records indicate - and our aim is to continue to do so.

- USA - CAMEO PARKWAY - 2004 - STEREOPHONIC
NEVER OPENED - FACTORY SEALED 1966 rarer (true) STEREOPHONIC Original (most copies were pressed as MONO back in the day of that popular format)
- Original 1966 first pressing vinyl of the killer farfisa organ/fuzz guitar garage punker in stunning STEREO.
The stereophonic issue offers different song mixes from the mono release and contains punchy speaker seperation in the sound production...reflecting the teen scene sights & sounds of the '60s...
Question Mark and the Mysterians (or ? and the Mysterians) were from Flint, Michigan, and formed in 1962. The group is best known for its song "96 Tears," a garage rock classic recorded in 1966 that reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and would go on to sell over one million copies and receive a BMI award for over three million airplays.
Question Mark and the Mysterians was perhaps the first band to be described as "garage punk rock" and also may be the first Latino rock group to have a general audience hit record. The group named itself after the 1957 Japanese science fiction film The Mysterians, in which aliens from the destroyed planet Mysteroid arrive to conquer Earth
Though the band couldn't be expected to record another song as fully realized and potent as "96 Tears," the rest of their first album is timeless and amazingly cool. Drenched in cool farfisa organ & fuzz guitar underpinning the band's raw garage rock rhythms, the tight self compositions move and groove in a danceable seductive manner, more-so than than their coastal contemporaries. The band wrote most of their own material, all the tracks are catchy, picking up a few purpose-built tunes -- like the super-fine "Don't Tease Me," the driving, infectious lead off "I Need Somebody," and equally potent "You're Telling Me Lies," "Why Me," etc. all sneering led vocals with attitude that made this band the definition of "garage-punk" -- even strong are the couple of covers they perform including a bluesy reading of "Stormy Monday" and the rave-up ripping "Shout."
