OUR GOAL IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION.
In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on

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.

T.M.O.Q. TRADE MARK OF QUALITY ORIGINAL
The cover is HAND SIGNED by legendary Trade Mark Of Quality cover artist WILLIAM STOUT ... try to get that signature
RARE Ages olde original first pressing 2-LP set in striking WHITE/BLACK YELLOW BLACK two-tone combo COLOR VINYL
Hardly EVER seen as a first issue on the legendary 40 years old Trade Mark Of Quality label ...with TMOQ pig labels
This album has
long been highly rated as one of the great underground WHO rarities
containing superb soundboard quality and getting the mighty WHO at their
best, recorded 40 years ago
The set begins with a thrilling
version of I Can t Explain. Followed by a rip roaring Summertime
Blues in which Daltrey says, Thank
you Philly. and jumps into a powerful MY GENERATION ... The rest
of the show is taken up with their latest magnum opusat the time, the
songs from the then new album Quadrophenia. Pete Townshend begins the narrative by explaining, Now
we d like to play for you the better part of an album -- what we wrote
about, something that is very dear to us when we were little. it s a
story about a mod kid and we call it Quadrophenia, since there
are four of us. It s sort of an in joke. Being mod meant a lot more in
England than it ever did in America. I think you think of it as a
Carnaby Street bullshit thing. And it s not just a looking back, but a
bringing up to date. Quadrophenia is about where we are today and maybe
you too. The story is set on a rock in the middle of a stormy sea.
Quadraphonic, of course. The story of Jimmy. The
wooshes of waves and sea fill the speakers during the I Am The Sea as a
prelude before the raging fury of The Real Me ...then on through
highlighted versions of Quadrophenia. Including Drowned lasting about
ten minutes long and includes some inspired jamming in between
Daltrey s screams of drowned ... Townshend and Entwistle have fun
playing their games off of one another and thankfully this recording is
well balanced enough to bring that out. Keith Moon gets his time in the
spotlight in Bell Boy, providing the Cockney voice for Ace-Face and
his joy at being a bell boy.
Doctor Jimmy is a very dramatic eight minutes long.
Won t Get Fooled Again is in
excellent quality and the set ends with two tracks from Tommy. Pinball
Wizard is introduced as Pineball Blizzard and is followed by See Me,
Feel Me. The jamming ignites into such intensity that
Townshend destroys his Les Paul at the song s conclusion and the
listener is left with undifferentiated feedback and fuzz and a very
exausted band at the end.
