Description
I will be out of the country buying more record collections until Sunday evening, 30 May. I will not be able to invoice until after that time, approximately 24 hours after these auctions end.
Please be patient for your invoice if you have won multiple auctions, because if you try to pay before receiving your invoice eBay will charge too much for postage.
Thanks for your cooperation, and best of luck
Bronze ILPS-9152, UK gatefold pressing. Disc is STONE MINT with super-clean labels, gatefold is EXCELLENT NEAR-MINT MINUS.
I will provide a poly sleeve and extra paper inner sleeve plus super-sturdy packaging for its journey through the mail. Furthermore, all unsealed records are always shipped out of their jackets and original inner sleeves to prevent seam damage in transit.
"Salisbury is the second album released by British rock band Uriah Heep. More squarely in the progressive rock genre than their debut album from the previous year, it featured their first foray into large–scale composition, with the 16–minute title track featuring a 24–piece orchestra. It also includes the largely acoustic ballad "Lady In Black." Unlike their first album, this album features more songwriting from Ken Hensley, as opposed to the Lennon/McCartney or Page/Plant style writing credits of Box/Byron on the First Album. It also broke ground in that most of his compositions are written with no other person in the writing credits. The album was originally released on the Vertigo label, as had been the band's debut Very 'eavy... Very 'umble, but both were soon re-released when the band signed to Bronze for their third album. The connection of the artwork to the title is readily explained. Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire, England, is an Army training-area. On the front of the album sleeve is a British Chieftain tank. The original LP release was a gatefold-sleeve, with a b/w picture inside of a British tank of the First World War, over which were printed Hensley's comments on each track. Later reissues would be in a single sleeve."
I'd be honored if you checked out my feedback and my other current auctions also. Thanks for your time and best of luck!
International bidders, you are responsible for customs fees. Don't be a tool by complaining in your feedback about your government's taxes, an evil over which I obviously have absolutely no control. You might also consider selecting Priority Rate postage, which is most appropriate for valuable artifacts as it provides to you peace of mind in the form of insurance and tracking.
Please see all of my auctions this week!There are lots of great heavy prog and psych from the 1960s and early '70s, mostly British, including many imports and sealed pressings!
For multiple auctions won to the USA, add 75 cents per addtional LP. Add $3 additional per each LP won for international.
(Internationals please note further that after four LPs first class postage option is not applicable owing to excessive parcel weight and value.)
