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.

STILL FACTORY SEALED!!!!!
1968 UK Blues Boom CLASSIC first album!
THE CHICAGO CLIMAX BLUES BAND
\ USA - (yellow) Sire - SES 97013
...STILL FACTORY SEALED!!!
We think this is a "rare" mid '70s 2nd press of the 1968 recording = the very first album by the Chicago Climax Blues Band (this was obtained with other "original" pressings, but cannot be 100% guaranteed of it's '60s originality, being "sealed" - so in the least it's a 35 year old pressing - that IS guranteed!) ... the very first and maybe BEST album, by the then lesser known, but very very good Climax Chicago Blues Band, one of the cool sounds from the sixties British blues-boom scene, recorded in 1968.
The Climax Chicago Blues Band --not from Chicago at all, but from Stafford, England--were major participants in the 1960s British blues-rock scene. This classic first record, recorded in '68 before they condensed their name to Climax Blues Band beholds the power of this band's ultimate talents. Influenced by the Chicago style of blues, these blues-loving musicians bring us a sound that is both direct and immediate and features very talented and creative harmonica and stinging guitar & slide guitar playing in the grand tradition of Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac, the Aynsley Dunbar Retaliation, John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, The Keef Hartley Band, T.S. McPhee's Groundhogs, early Led Zeppelin and a dozen others.
The British blues scene of 1967-1969 was hot.
And while it is not always noted -- one of the best best was the Climax Chicago Blues Band (they dropped 'Chicago' after this first album). Though rooted in the American blues tradition, they gave it their own distinctive British twist, producing some of the finest modern blues music around in their first 4 or 5 albums, but NONE better than this, their first and arguably best LP! ....An underrated gem!
