ATTENTION U.S. BUYERS : PLEASE WAIT FOR MY CORRECT INVOICE BEFORE MAKING PAYMENT

     This item is a SUPER MEGA-RARE  Thailand  THE IMPOSSIBLES  12"  LP  with very unique IN THE STUDIO picture sleeve and there are 11 (ELEVEN) songs from them on this record respectively.  Please see a complete song list (printed in Thai) from pictures of  both sides of the labels provided above.

FYI :  All music on this Long Play is ORIGINAL. Unlike reissued CD or later Greatest Hits LP with re-recorded music...so...please beware if you really would like to listen to the sound of the 70's.

     THE IMPOSSIBLES was formed in 1966.  They recorded quite a few soundtrack songs for Thai movies since 1969.  This is the very FIRST full S/T LP album with the late founder and leader of  THE HOT PEPPER,  PRAJEEN SONGPAOW.  The band mainly played Pop, Soul, Funk, Rock, including Disco music and went overseas to make fame and fortune and the rest was history.  Later in their career, they got signed by Philips (International) which was not too bad for the first Thai band and started recording the infamous HOT PEPPER album around the year 1975.  Actually, this offered album is a pre-Hot Pepper LP with musicians that Thai people often called a Classic Line-Up.

     Songs from THE IMPOSSIBLES on this LP were arranged by PRAJEEN SONGPAOW ( R.I.P.) who believed to be a leader of the band.  The lead singer, SETHA SIRACHAYA, is now very successful in TV/Movie business in Thailand.  He married a well known actress, woman of his dream, and has one daughter. Eventhough THE IMPOSSIBLES broke up long time ago (1977) but the band occationally reunites for charity events and has released a couple of DVD concerts in the past years.

  You might have heard their music before from numerous CD/LP compilation released by private companies located in both Europe and USA. To name but a few, LIGHT IN THE ATTIC RECORDS  - "Thai Funk Vol. 1 & 2" ( Do It ('Til You're Satisfied), Pom-Pom-Pom ).  Well..this is the real thing and you can enjoy listening to other good songs from a legendary Thai band on this record. Guaranteed no disappointment for hardcore oriental music lovers.  

NOTES : Original 1971 pressing, no reissue.

      It is SELDOM SEEN on eBay, a very hard-to-find collector's item, manufactured and distributed ONLY in THAILAND by METRO STEREO RECORDS back in the year 1971 with a Catalog Number PM-025.

     The condition of paper sleeve is VERY GOOD ( for 40+ years old! ) with age browning, a lot of water stains, and ring wears.  As for vinyl, it is visually graded as VERY GOOD++ condition with scuffs and marks on both sides of the record and REALLY needs to be cleaned first due to humid weather.

      I never play the record so I have no idea whether it is fine or not so I have to sell it as it is.  Visually, it looks OK to me and it has nothing to do with the good music that you are going to hear with some (or maybe a lot of) clicks and pops !!!  Anyway, cleaning the vinyl before playing is highly recommended.

      Please look above if you want to see more photos with details of SONG LIST because I have pictures of an actual item posted for your reference. What you see is what you really get when winning this item!

     Only ONE COPY of this great item is available NOW so please grab it if you can because when it is gone...well...it's GONE for good. There is no way to get another one because it is VERY SCARCE and a long OUT OF PRINT item. YOU WILL NEVER FIND ONE WITH THE CONDITION LIKE THIS AGAIN, please believe me.  

     Because Thailand recently had floods caused by heavy rain outside Bangkok in most of the cities, it is more and more difficult to find records nowadays. I am sure that you will not see this same item for sale any time soon, in fact, not from me or other Thai sellers. Please keep this in mind for your consideration.

     It is strongly advised that you must look at all pictures very carefully. Eventhough I try to grade each item according to the standards but I am no professional.

If you have a question concerning this item then please email me before placing your bid.

     Worldwide REGISTERED AIR-MAIL is US$ 18.00 for this item and kindly be informed that US shipping is NOT US$ 4.00 neither.

     Combined shipping is welcome with an additional charge of  US$ 5.00 per LP.  The package will be carefully packed and sent through Thailand Post Office in an LP Mailer with custom-made bubbles outer sleeve and proper paddings for best protection during delivery.  Of course, the vinyl will be taken out of its jacket to prevent spine splitting.

     Usually, it takes approximately 14-20 days for the package from Thailand to go to your country. Sometimes it might take upto 30(thirty) days for no reason and I really have no idea why ( maybe depending upon Post Office's mood! ) so kindly understand this and allow at least 1(one) month to receive your package because it really takes a long way from home !

     Please be noted that I am not responsible for rough handling and package lost on the way caused by Postman OR Post Office in your country nor transit time/customs clearance because I have no control over these incidents, especially BRAZIL and ITALY.

     Payment must be made only via PayPal within 3(three) working days after auction ended.  If you have any question(s) then please feel free to contact me at your earliest convenience. I will try to reply within 24 hours.
