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

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.

LP:
MINT .... Original 1967 first pressing of the 2nd Young Rascals album. A solid happening garage album with punk edge cuts, strong organ guitar great great vocals
Contains the original Atlantic printed inner sleeve
This is one of the most underrated albums of the 1960 s. The Rascals are often slagged for being a singles band. This assumption is far from the truth, many of their albums are excellent. This recording is where psychedelia, soul, folk-rock, garage punk, and ethnic elements mesh successfully into one cohesive offering. Their hits exploded in 67 and are here Groovin , How Can I Be Sure , and A Girl Like You do not a need further explanation. You Better Run is an cool garage punk tune that has proved to be very influential. Find Somebody has menacing circular guitar riffs that grab the listener immediately -- a song where they repeat a small guitar riff that repeats on alternating speakers. It is a good way to see if both your speakers are hooked up correctly I m So Happy Now could have easily found a home on the Beach Boy s masterful Pet Sounds album. Sueno burns with 60 s experimentation including backward cymbals and a fiery spanish guitar style riff. Every song is a winner and very individual. This is the Rascals version of the Beatle s great Revolver album still their best In addition, the Rascals voices sound excellent and they have not abodoned their soul roots. This is an essential listen for any 60 s collectors up.
